CORE RULES
THE RULES
This book explains how to play games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar
with your collection of Citadel Miniatures. It also includes the Player’s
Code, a handy set of guidelines that will help you and your opponent
get the most out of your games.
THE WARHAMMER
AGE OF SIGMAR
PLAYER’S CODE
THE CORE RULES
There is a famous adage that goes,
‘It matters not if you win or lose,
it’s how you play the game.’
We believe that Warhammer Age
of Sigmar is a game best played
in this spirit, and to help with
this, we’ve put together a set of
guidelines that we call the ‘Player’s
Code’, which you can see opposite.
The cardinal rules of the Player’s
Code are all you really need to
follow, as the principles that
come below them are really just
examples of the cardinal rules in
practice. If you follow the Player’s
Code, you’ll find yourself having
more fun, and what’s more, you’ll
be playing Warhammer Age of
Sigmar as it’s meant to be played –
as an enjoyable pastime played in a
spirit of friendly rivalry.
The core rules are the foundation
of playing games of Warhammer
Age of Sigmar. These rules show
you how your models move, cast
magic spells, shoot their missile
weapons, charge into battle
and fight with their close-range
weapons – basically everything
you need to start waging war with
your Citadel Miniatures! The
core rules provide you with the
key mechanics that govern how
everything works – from battle-
hardened infantry to gigantic
monsters – allowing you to quickly
build up from your first few simple
games to grand spectacles of
large-scale conflict.
CORE RULES
THE PLAYER’S CODE
• Always be polite and respectful.
• Always tell the truth and never cheat.
CARDINAL RULES
PRINCIPLES
• Arrive on time with all of the things you need to
play the game.
• Make a respectful gesture to your opponent
before and after the game, such as offering a
handshake, wishing them good luck, etc.
• Avoid using language your opponent might
find offensive.
• Ask your opponent’s permission if you wish to
use unpainted models or substitute models.
• Offer your opponent a chance to examine your
army roster before the battle starts.
• Answer any questions your opponent has about
your army and the rules that apply to your army.
• Measure moves and distances carefully
and accurately.
• Give your opponent the chance to examine your
dice rolls before picking up the dice.
• Ask permission before touching any of your
opponent’s miniatures.
• Remind your opponent about rules they may
have forgotten to use or that they have used
incorrectly, especially when doing so is to your
opponent’s advantage rather than your own.
• Never deliberately waste time during a game.
• Avoid distracting an opponent when they are
trying to concentrate, and be careful to respect
their personal space.
• Never complain about your bad luck or your
opponent’s good luck.
• Never fix the outcome of a game.

CORE RULES
THE CORE
RULES
Some words appear in
rules bold.
This indicates
that these are important
terms that are used
throughout the rules for
Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
The title for each core rule
has a section number. These
will help you quickly find
a rule that is referenced
elsewhere in the core rules.
For example ‘(see 2.0)’ means
that you should refer to
section 2.0 – The Battlefield.
The following rules explain how to use your collection of
Citadel Miniatures to play a game of Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
1.0 CORE CONCEPTS
This section of the core rules contains important principles that are used
in all games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
To play a game of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, first you must pick the
factions
you wish to include in your
army
(see 1.4). Each faction has
its own
battletome,
which contains the
warscrolls
(see 1.3.1),
Pitched
Battle profiles
(see 25.0) and
allegiance abilities
(see 27.0) for that
faction. Then, you and your opponent must agree upon a
battlepack
to
use (see 28.0). The battlepack contains instructions on how to pick your
army, set up the battlefield (see 2.0), and what you need to do in order to
win the battle.
1.1
FACTIONS, BATTLETOMES AND BATTLEPACKS
Citadel Miniatures are
also used to represent
terrain features (see 17.0),
endless spells (see 19.3)
and invocations (see 20.3).
However, only the Citadel
Miniatures that represent the
warriors in your army are
considered to be ‘models’ for
rules purposes.
1.2
MODELS
The Citadel Miniatures that make up your army are referred to as
models.
Most models have a plastic
base
that allows them to be stood
on the battlefield and that are used when measuring distances to or from
the model (see 1.5.1). The base is considered to be part of the model for
rules purposes. A model cannot be set up or end a move on top of another
model, either wholly or partially.
1.2.1 FRIENDLY AND ENEMY MODELS
Models from your army are referred to as
friendly
models, and models
from your opponent’s army are referred to as
enemy
models. If a rule
states that it affects models without specifying whether they are friendly
or enemy, then it affects friendly
and
enemy models.
1.2.2 REMOVED FROM PLAY
Sometimes models will be
removed from play,
most commonly if they
are
slain
(see 14.2) or
flee
(see 15.1) or to make their unit
coherent
(see 1.3.3). Place models that have been removed from play to one side,
so they are no longer on the battlefield. They are no longer part of
your army.
1.3
UNITS
Models are organised into
units.
A unit is a group of one or more models
that use the same warscroll (see 1.3.1). The number of models in a unit is
shown on its Pitched Battle profile (see 25.0). A unit is destroyed when the
last model in the unit is removed from play.
A model with a base.
1.3.1 WARSCROLLS
Every unit has a
warscroll,
which provides information that is needed to
use it in a game. You can find out more about warscrolls in section 22.0.
Warscrolls are also provided for endless spells (see 19.3), invocations (see
20.3) and faction terrain features (see 23.0).

CORE RULES
1.3.2 KEYWORDS
Every warscroll includes a list of
keywords
that apply to all of the models
in a unit that uses that warscroll. Keywords appear in
Keyword Bold
in the rules and are used to identify one or more units. For example,
a rule might say that it applies to
Stormcast Eternals
units. This
means that the rule would apply to all units that have the
Stormcast

a friendly unit is not coherent at the end of a turn or after you set it up,
you must remove models in the unit from play, one at a time, until it
is coherent.

picked for your army (see 1.1). The battlepack you are using will explain
how to pick the units in your army (see 28.0). An
