CHICAGO BUNKER WINTER WARBAND

STROLL THROUGH THE DRAKWALD

Your Starting Hero (Army General and Archetype)

Your army general must be one of the generic Heroes from your army book, purchased with no magical upgrades (including magical itemsor other similar upgrades). Heroes can begin the game with non-magical armor and weapons, as well as mounts. The only exception to this

rule is that if your hero needs an upgrade to be a level 1 wizard (such as a Warlock Engineer or Branchwraith) you may purchase thisupgrade to start. When you first select your army general you must select an Archetype to represent his personality and style of leadership. A

characters Archetype entitles him to one special Starting Abilities and a list of abilities he can gain later by achieving Hidden Objectives.

You cannot take a Lord choice as part of a warbands army.

Your Starting ArmyYour starting army must have at least two Core units and cannot include any Special or Rare choices. As the season progresses, you can alsonot spend any more points in any other category (Hero, Special, Rare) than you have for your Core choices. You can never purchase Lords or

unique characters.

Non-Units

Several units in warhammer do not count towards the total points spent in a category (Assassins, Giant Rats, etc.). For these types of 'non-

units', the following rules are unique to warbands.

'Non-units' do not count towards the total amount of points in any category. You cannot take more total points in 'non-units' than you have spent in your total core category.

You cannot have more total 'non-units' than you have core units.Unit Sizes and Options

The minimum unit sizes in a Warband are smaller than those in a standard Warhammer army. Models with a 20 or 25 mm square base

(mostly infantry) have a minimum size of 3, cavalry units have a minimum size of 2 and larger bases have a minimum size of 1. However,

no Warband regiment may take any unit options (other than non-magical weapon and armor upgrades) unless the regiment meets its normalunit minimum listed in the Army book.

Warband Limitations

No more than 2 wizard levels totalYou can never field more than one model of each of the following unit types. Armies that can take any of these as units with multiple models

are still limited to a single model. If a hero, unit or model has several of these types, then it fulfills both categories.

War Machines or Chariots Fliers (Flying core units, such as harpies and bat swarms are not limited to a single model in a unit)

Monsters (including monstrous mounts)Upgrading your Warband

As you go through the season, you will gain additional points to add to your army. However, you can never exceed the number of points inyour Core Units. For example, if you have 200 points of core units you can have no more than 200 points of heroes and 200 points of

Special units. After week one you may add up to 1 special and 1 rare choice. You may drop your rare choice in order to take 2 specialchoices. You may never have more than 2 heroes.

Hidden Objective

If you complete your hidden objective (whether or not you win the battle), you may choose anew archetype ability from the list available to your General.

Character Recovery

Whenever a character model is removed from the field of battle (either by being killed or fleeing off the table), they are required to make aRecovery Roll. Models which are considered champions (even unique named Champions) automatically recover and do not need to roll on

the recovery table.

To make a Recovery Roll, roll a D66. To roll a d66, roll 2 different colored d6s. One will be the 10s and one will be the 1s. For example,

if you rolled two dice and rolled a 1 and a 5, you would use 15. Consult the Character Injury Table to determine how the ch aracter wasaffected by his wounds. Apply the effects of the Character Injury Table immediately. Most effects are cumulative, but no attribute can be

reduced below 1. If a roll would reduce an attribute below 1, reroll the result. Players who complete their secret objective may, instead of

rolling for an ability, remove one injury the character already had.
