Thanks
I'm kind of confused about the numbering- 0.2? Wasn't the previous version 1.0?

I'll offer my services as editor at some point- misspellings really bug me :p

The previous army list document was 0.1

The main rules are still 1.0

Great effort... I like the wood elf list and the new trail rules for light cavalry!

Are centigors in the beastmen list classified as 'light cavalry' for the trail rules even though they are classified  'infantry'?

@Aldhick, I have now had a chance to read the light trial cavalry rules.  Really like them.  Gives that unit type a good battlefield role, even if it is just to chase down the opponent's light cavalry.  I expect to see balanced armies and even mixed cavalry brigades on the table in future which, to be fair, is more "realistic" if we take WMR as Renaissance warfare with the addition of non-humans and magic!

@Aldhick, noticed a glitch.  Page 14.  Giant still wounded on 4-7 hits.  Also it says 'Official 2006' top left.

Thanks Aquahog,

And thanks to those who worked on these rules. I much prefer that Wood Elf list to what has come before.

What is the reasoning behind changing when creatures are 'wounded'? I always assumed the variability in that was an intentional part of balancing?

 @Aldhick must say that trial rule light cavalry seems like a good idea.

If I allow myself I have encountered a series of errors in the army lists;

Ogre Kingdom: Ironguts 145 pts? or 140
WE Glade Riders 100 pts? or 90 pts
Beastman: Dragon Ogres immune to terror?

I ask, WE treeman Monster suffer the usual -1 command penalty when within woodland?
 
In Norse army Valkyries causes terror in the enemy?

Thanks,

Thanks,

Thanx! Will chcek that.
  - treeman doesn't suffer the penalty so the clarification will be neccessary
  - the terror was removed from Valkyries for that would make them ultra powerful.

Found an error.

Page 51
Leadbelchers missing text 'Count enemy Armour value as one worse than normal.'

Same in Chaos dwarfs list page 63 Blunderbusses missing text: 'Count enemy Armour value as one worse than normal.'
