Warrior Progression Chart

Once a warrior has gained 5 experience points the model must roll on the following Warrior
Progression Chart.

D6 Result
1-3 No Effect – The warrior does not progress.
4-5 Promoted – The warrior has been granted a promotion. Exchange all basic wargear
for the wargear associated with their new profile. If the warrior is not eligible for a
promotion, treat the results as No Effect instead.
6 A Hero in the Making – From this point onwards, the Warrior is treated as a Hero
and immediately gains 1 Fate point. They retain the Experience Points gained so far
and will advance like a Hero from the next game on.

Hero Progression Charts

The first time a hero gains 5 experience points they must choose from one of the following
paths to embark on (if they meet the criteria). The hero may only roll on their chosen
Progression chart, unless an advancement, special rule of scenario bonus allows to do
otherwise. If a hero rolls a result that they cannot take (either because they cannot improve
a characteristic any further or they already have the special rule) then they must roll again.
In some of the charts below there are certain special rules that can be improved. For these
special rules if you roll the result a second time then you do not reroll on the chart but
receive the improved result for that special rule.
As a hero embarks on their chosen path they will acquire improved stats and special rules,
hence increasing their rating. A hero gains points to their rating as listed below:

 For each point of Might, Will or Fate that a hero gains, add 5 points.
 For each increase to the hero model’s Fight, Strength, Defence or Courage, add 5 points.
 For each increase to the hero model’s Attacks or Wounds, add 10 points.
 For each special rule that a hero has gained, add 5 points unless it is stated in brackets.
For example on the Path of the Warrior, result 2 is Parry (10), this is worth 10 rating
points.
 Do not add rating points for hero models who gain a magical power, unless stated in
brackets next to the power.
