WHAT SKIRMISH CAN DO FOR YOU

Warhammer Skirmish is now available to buy from the Online Store.

Warhammer Skirmish isn't a new concept, nor is it a new product, supplement or Army book. The idea of skirmishing has always been a strong part of Warhammer. But up until now it has taken a back seat to the common theme of two massive armies taking to the battlefield and duking it out. This has all changed!

Why is Warhammer Skirmish so great? Maybe your army isn't that large yet or you only have a small place to play and a limited amount of time to get a game in. Skirmish helps solve all those problems. Using the Skirmish rules allows you to explore the most evocative parts of the immense Warhammer world.

The best part of Warhammer Skirmish is that you can get started with whatever models you have painted up. If you'd like to expand your collection, or just have an excuse to paint a massive Dragon or a fearsome Chaos Knight, this is your chance to make use of these models right away. Even better is the chance to link smaller Skirmish battles together that finally coalesce into a mighty game of Warhammer, all the while building on a satisfying story.

SO, WHAT IS SKIRMISH?

Sometimes you might not have time to play a full-scale battle, or perhaps your armies are not yet completely painted. In such situations the rules given below will allow you to play games using small skirmish forces.

The Skirmish rules allow you to play battles between small forces of a dozen or so models. When you start playing you can decide who has the first turn, what scenery to use etc., by using the core Warhammer rules or by agreeing with your opponent first.

All Warhammer rules apply in a skirmish game apart from the exceptions and modifications given below. Mordheim: City of the Damned (available from Games Workshop's Mail Order and stores) provides a complete set of rules for skirmish battles set in the Warhammer world.
