l sLlll remember wlLh greaL fondness Lhe orlglnal
0+12& 3*/4&* rules for 5/*%/((&* 678777. l
played endless games wlLh my frlends across
LableLops populaLed wlLh a wlde range of flgures
and Lerraln made from shoeboxes. Lven Lhough
Lhe rules were clunky and ofLen dldn'L work we
found LhaL we could have fun by operaLlng wlLh a
cheerful dlsregard for anyLhlng LhaL dld noL make
sense.

1he maln game of 5/*%/((&* 678777 remalns
one of Lhe mosL popular ln Lhe world, desplLe rules
LhaL run lnLo hundreds of pages and Lhe
conLlnuous churnlng ouL of army codlces. l belleve
LhaL lL ls Lhe 40k unlverse lLself LhaL keeps people
playlng raLher Lhan Lhe rules and flgures.

When 9)/:& ;*2-/4& and Lhen 9)/:& <2=> came
ouL l was over[oyed. Slmple rules made Lhe play
fun agaln. unforLunaLely when Lhe deal wlLh
MllLon 8radley ended so dld mosL supporL for
Lhese games.

1he nexL Lrue sklrmlsh game from Cames
Workshop was .&:*+(2"4/. 1he rules were qulLe
complex and resLrlcLed Lo playlng Lhe feaLured
gangs ln Lhe box. Llke 9)/:& ;*2-/4&, supporL
dwlndled, and lL wenL lnLo Lhe back caLalogue
(SpeclallsL Cames).

8y now l was readlng books publlshed by Lhe 8lack
Llbrary, wlshlng l could be Cregor Llsenhorn or
Cldeon 8avenor, so lmaglne my [oy when Lhe
!"?2@-@$+* game came ouL. l rushed down Lo my
local Cames Workshop and boughL Lhe rules.
1hank Lhe Lmperor l dldn'L buy Lhe flgures Loo,
because Lhe rules were probably Lhe worsL LhaL
Cames Workshop had ever creaLed. l couldn'L
belleve LhaL you needed a huge volume of rules Lo
descrlbe a game beLween Lwo groups of flve Lo Len
flgures.

Slnce Lhen l have experlmenLed wlLh a number of
commerclal and home grown Sl sklrmlsh rules and
Lhls seL ls Lhe resulL of all LhaL work.

1he Second Ld|t|on

WlLh over 2,000 downloads of Lhe flrsL edlLlon and
plenLy of feedback from players around Lhe world,
we declded Lo re-edlL Lhe rules. 1he Second LdlLlon
had a number of small changes Lo LlghLen up Lhe
rules, and Lo lmprove Lhelr clarlLy and layouL. lL
also had brand new rules for lLems llke vehlcles.

1he mosL noLlceable change was Lhe spllLLlng of
Lhe game lnLo Lhree documenLs. 1he 8eLlnues of
Appendlx 2 had grown so large, especlally wlLh fan
made addlLlons, LhaL Lhey now formed a documenL
ln Lhelr own rlghL.

1he Campalgn SecLlon, wrlLLen by !ason MaesLros
and formerly appearlng ln Appendlx 1, was also
expanded lnLo a separaLe documenL.

1he 1h|rd Ld|t|on

1he 1hlrd LdlLlon was lnsplred by Lhe dlscusslon
and feedback on Lhe lorge of War forums. A
number of dedlcaLed !$'. players gave Lhelr
suggesLlons for lmprovemenLs Lo Lhe rules, based
on Lhelr experlence of playlng Lhe game.

lor Lhe 1hlrd LdlLlon, all of Lhe Core 8ules have
been revlewed and edlLed Lo lmprove Lhelr clarlLy
and conslsLency. 1he 1hlrd LdlLlon ls also Lhe flrsL
verslon of !$'. Lo be publlshed ln Lwo varlanLs: Lhe
Camer's LdlLlon, whlch reLalns Lhe exlsLlng plaln
and slmple" layouL and formaLLlng of prevlous
edlLlons, and Lhe deluxe Cold LdlLlon", whlch wlll
have full-colour layouL, lnllne graphlcs and a sLyle
ln keeplng wlLh Lhe grlm, dark unlverse of Lhe 41
sL

Mlllennlum.

unllke prevlous edlLlons, Lhe 8eLlnues and
Campalgns books wlll noL be released aL Lhe same
Llme as Lhe Core 8ules. unLll Lhese are updaLed
and revlsed, players can conLlnue Lo use Lhe books
from Lhe Second LdlLlon, buL be warned: Lhe polnLs

!" $%& '()&*+*,- ./(& ls a sklrmlsh game wlLh
roughly four Lo Len flgures per slde. 1he key deslgn
phllosophy ls keep lL ShorL And Slmple (klSS), Lhe
ldea belng LhaL Lhe players can learn Lhe rules ln a
few mlnuLes and Lhen geL on wlLh Lhe fun of
slaughLerlng one anoLher. lor example, Lhe maln
rules for play Lake up [usL a few pages.

1he game ls based ln Lhe 5/*%/((&* 678777
unlverse. Lach player forms a 8eLlnue led by a
herolc lnqulslLor, a devlous Chaos agenL or one of a
selecLlon of oLher proLagonlsLs. 1hey plL Lhelr
forces agalnsL one or more oLher 8eLlnues for
possesslon of a chosen ob[ecLlve, or [usL for Lhe
rush of bloody combaL.

1.1 A note for Warhammer 40,000 Lnthus|asts

uesplLe some slmllarlLles Lhese rules, are noL a
subseL of 5/*%/((&* 678777. 1hey Lry Lo
represenL very small acLlons ln Lhe 40k unlverse.

1.2 A note on f|gure sca|es

Cur assumpLlon ls LhaL Lhese rules wlll be used
wlLh 28mm-scale 5/*%/((&* 678777 mlnlaLures.
lf you're uslng 13mm flgures, you may wlsh Lo
halve all dlsLances, or slmply converL from lnches
Lo cenLlmeLres. layers uslng 34mm scale flgures
from lnqulslLor mlghL wlsh Lo double all dlsLances.

1.3 8u||d|ng a ket|nue

Lach player ln Lhls game has a 8eLlnue, whlch ls a
group of flgures LhaL follow a Leader. 8eLlnues
should conLaln a mlnlmum of four flgures ln a
8eLlnue, and musL lnclude aL leasL one flgure
deslgnaLed as Lhe Leader.

A player has a seL number polnLs Lo spend on hls
8eLlnue. We recommend LhaL you begln wlLh 200
polnLs unLll you have played a couple of games.
AfLer LhaL you can have as many as you agree wlLh
your fellow players.

1he leader of Lhe 8eLlnue musL be lncluded ln Lhe

1.4 Cn||ne ket|nue 8u||der

lor lLLn 3, an onllne 8eLlnue 8ullder can be used
whlch does all Lhe hard work of managlng your

1.6 I|gure Costs

ln Lhls game we use a W?SlW?C process for
looklng aL a flgure. lor example, lf a flgure has a
lasplsLol and a chalnsword, Lhen boLh weapons
counL Lowards LhaL flgure's polnLs cosL. 1he cosL of
Lhe flgure ls calculaLed as follows:

llgure cosL = CrlL + lv + Sv + Speed

+ Speclal AblllLles
+ syker owers

Cuns of varlous Lypes all come wlLh enough

carrylng cerLaln weapons, Lhen Lhey are compeLenL
ln Lhe use of Lhose lLems.

1.8 A|||es

8eLlnues can conLaln flgures from oLher reLlnue
llsLs: for example, an lnqulslLor may recrulL soldlers
from Lhe lmperlal Cuard or a member of Lhe
ueaLhwaLch chapLer lnLo Lhelr reLlnue, a 8ogue
1rader mlghL [oln forces wlLh Lldar corsalrs on a
hunL for xenos archeoLech, or marlnes from a
1ralLor Leglon mlghL conscrlpL from Lhe 8lood acL
as cannon-fodder.

Allles Laken from oLher llsLs cannoL make up more
Lhan 33 of Lhe cosL of Lhe reLlnue (ln normal
games Lhls wlll resLrlcL Lhem Lo [usL one or Lwo
models). Leaders Laken from oLher reLlnue llsLs
cannoL cosL more Lhan Lhe leader of Lhe "prlmary"
reLlnue.

2 Arms and Lqu|pment

ln a small 8eLlnue Lhere ls much more ablllLy Lo
vary arms and equlpmenL beyond Lhe norm
allowed by a 5/*%/((&* 678777 army llsL. Some
equlpmenL ls sLlll resLrlcLed because lL ls [usL noL
posslble for some Lroop Lypes Lo use lL. 1he perfecL
example ls ower Armour. Cnly Space Marlnes,
Chaos Space Marlnes and SlsLers of 8aLLle have Lhe
physlcal adapLaLlons Lo use ower Armour. A few
members of Lhe lnqulslLlon have had Lhese
adapLaLlons made as well.
