Official Stuff

Core Rules

Privateer Press' main website has all the core rules for you to download for free.

Game Rules & Errata
Latest Themes
Model Rules

Warroom

Warroom is an app for mobile devices that does a lot of stuff, some better than others. In order of importance, they are:

  • Contains all the model rules
  • Contains all the theme rules. (This feature is implemented poorly if you just want to browse)
  • Lets you build army lists. (This feature has a couple of bugs, and in certain situations will fail to tell you the list you built has an illegal model combination.)
  • Lets you track damage during a game
  • Lets you link to your opponent's Warroom, so you can read their cards and watch their damage tracking. (This feature is a bit buggy, and super draining on your battery)
  • Contains a copy of the rulebook. (This feature works terribly)

You can download the app for free, and it contains some models for free (the battlebox contents I think?) but you have to buy most models as in-app purchases.

  • Once you pay for a Faction, any future models for that Faction will be added to your app.
  • If you buy the "All Factions" option, not only do you get all the current Factions, all future Factions will be automatically added to your app too.

Journeyman League

This league is designed to encourage new players to begin learning the game with their chosen faction’s battle box and then expand their collection over the course of six weeks. The Journeyman League rewards both the player’s in-game victories and their skill with a brush.

Steamroller

Steamroller are rules for running a tournament, it modifies stuff like how long the game lasts, how scenario points are scored, and how terrain should be set out.

Tip !
The Steamroller packet is very popular as a "standard format" for casual games, too.

Judges Resolution Policy (2016)

If you and your opponent make a mistake, and you can't agree how to fix it, then this is how a judge would rule (most of the time):
