the tile. The army could then move into the map tile if desired, provided there was no blocking terrain. Since a scouting roll was required every time an army wished to move, it was possible that the army could head in the wrong direction or not move at all, even if the target tile had been previously explored. In the event that a hostile settlement or an opposing army was encountered, a battle was then fought. The battle could be determined by Warhammer Fantasy Battle rules, or by a simple points based system. In the case of sieges, the conflict could also be played out using Warhammer Siege rules. After any battles had been fought, an army could raze the map tile, rendering it useless for further subsistence for a period of time, and then reorganise any armies in the same tile, including their baggage. The next player then took their turn, following the same procedure. After all players took their turn, the next month began, with a random player starting first for that month. After all 6 months had been completed, the autumn equinox spells were cast, then the winter season procedure began. During the winter season, revenue (taxes) was collected, new units could be recruited, diplomacy and espionage could be performed and new settlements constructed. The game turn then restarted with the spring equinox. Simple rules for naval warfare were also included, although the later released Man o' War system could ostensibly be substituted. Additional rules Expanded rules for difference race's subsistence were included, for example orcs and goblins suffered double penalties for shortfalls as the smaller individuals were eaten, while Skaven could only subsist from razed tiles. A random name generator for several races was also included. White Dwarf published additional rules for buildings (such as Wizard towers and bridges), massive siege units and printed additional map tiles. 2007 Edition This game was re-released in 2007 with new plastic pieces with a scaled down version of the rules, to be used to drive a campaign of miniature battles.
