KHARNAGE • OFFICIAL FAQ
DESCRIPTION
What are the little black and grey symbols at
the right of a Unit name?
It is the Unit type. These symbols may interact
with some rules, like the Large Unit skill or the
Master of Spiders skill (Tricks & Mercenaries
expansion). These symbols have no common
rules for themself, they are just informational.
Sometimes, it is written “turn” and other
times, “round”, what is the difference?
There is no difference, they have the same
meaning.
RULES
Attack: Do we total 2 attacks of the same
type (like 2 Melee Attack)?
No, each attack is resolved independently of
the others.
Attack: Do the unused Strenght points stay
on a Unit if I made a second Attack against it?
No, to destroy a unit, it must be destroyed in a
single attack.
Magic Attack: If I have no Ranged or Melee
Attack symbols, but I have Magic  Attack
symbols, can I still resolve my Attacks?
Yes, we consider that you have 0 Melee
Attack / Ranged Attack symbols + your Magic
Attack symbols. The Attack type remains the
starting one, you can not turn a Melee Attack
into Ranged Attack by this way, but the Magic
Attack is NOT a Melee or Ranged Attack.
Surprise Magic Attack: I deploy a Unit with
3 Suprise Magic Attack symbols, which
Attack must I do?
The Magic Attack can be made as a Melee or
Ranged Attack. So, you can attack any Army
with your 3 Strength points.
Discard: What does “Discard” mean?
All discarded cards go directly on the Hill.
If a power or skill indicates that a Unit is
discarded, it goes directly on the Hill and does
not count in the destroyed card count at the
end of the round.
Black reinforcement: The rules say I can play
a card from my hand (General, Unit, Large
Unit), but I only have my General, how do I
get others?
Except your General(s), the other cards will
be Kradwallon cards found in the Tricks &
Mercenaries expansion.
Black reinforcement: When there is a Black
reinforcement on my unit (as on the Paolo
il Condottiere card, expansion Tricks &
Mercenaries), do I draw from the
Kradwallon pile?
You do not have to, you can also play a
Mercenary unit from your hand (basic rule).
Surprise: I have deployed a Unit with the
Surprise symbol associated with an Attack
symbol, when resolving the Attacks on my
Strategy card, will this unit be able to
attack again?
Yes! For example, my Dwarf Furies performs
a Surprise Melee Attack with a Strength
power of 2, then I have 2 Melee Attacks on
my Strategy Card #540, so my Dwarf Furies
will attack again during each Melee Attack. In
total, they will have attacked 3 times during
this round.
SKILLS
Shield: Do we count the number of symbols
on the card or on the entire Army?
Only on the card.
Knight: How to identify a Knight unit?
These are the units with the Knight skill,
regardless of their name or type (small gray
symbol at the right of the name).
Large unit: Should I put all the cards
composing the unit or just one of them in my
Reserve draw pile?
You have to put all the cards.
Large unit: If I deploy a card that is part of a
Large Unit, I have to take the other piece or
pieces of this Unit in the corresponding pile.
But if one or more of the pieces are in my
Reinforcement Draw pile, do I have to draw
one or more cards to compensate?
No, it’s a pity, the Large Unity costs 2 cards of
the Reinforcement Draw pile to be deployed.
Muck slinging: when does Muck slinging
come into play?
This skill takes effect after each Ranged
Attack.
Smashing through: What type of Attack is it?
These are Melee Attacks.
STRATEGY CARDS
Fill’em up! (Dwarf): How long does the Away
effect last?
Until the end of the round.
Howling Charge! (Orc): What do you mean by
Unit of your choice?
Any of those in your Army, without any
distinction. Do not take into account the type
of the Unit (small gray symbol to the right of
the name) or the name of it.
Grudge (Dwarf): Can I make 3 new Attacks,
one Melee, one Magic and one Ranged?
Yes, count first the number of Melee Attack
symbols linked to a Surprise symbol in your
Army and make your Melee Attack against
any Army at range, then do the same for the
Magic and Ranged Attacks. Each Attack can
be made against a different Army each time.
