About this board game

Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles (7th Edition) is a tabletop wargame for two players, with games lasting around 360 minutes. Released in 2006, this edition refines the sixth-edition rules without making radical changes.

Command one of many armies in the Warhammer world, from Imperial Humans, Dwarves, and High Elves to Undead Vampires, Orcs, Beastmen, and the ratmen known as Skaven. The game supports a huge range of races and invites players to build their forces from Citadel miniatures.

The 288-page hardback rulebook contains everything needed to field an army on the tabletop. Its contents are divided into four sections:

  • Basic Rules: The foundations for deploying and using your army on the tabletop.
  • Advanced Rules: Rules for war machines, chariots, monsters, mighty heroes, powerful wizards, and other rare or potent troops.
  • The Warhammer World: Background on the setting, its history, races, and armies, supported by full-colour photographs of collectable forces.
  • Hobby Section: Guidance on choosing, collecting, assembling, and painting an army, plus information about terrain and multiple scenarios.

Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles combines battlefield rules with a substantial miniature hobby experience. Whether you are exploring its many races, learning the core rules, or preparing a painted Citadel army, the seventh edition provides a complete guide to entering its expansive fantasy world.
