This document contains figures upon which we answer certain Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). These pertain to complex rules and tricky situations that may arise in games. As such, this document does not contain any errata or rules changes, but merely clarifications and explanations of rules from the Rulebook, the Arcane Compendium, the Army Books, and the Errata document.

Generally, each entry will usually be composed of the following elements:
  1. The FAQ
  2. The most important rules covering the FAQ (marked by a frame)
  3. One or more figures depicting the situation that the FAQ refers to
  4. A figure legend answering the FAQ
The FAQs are grouped according to the phase which they mostly refer to (Charge Phase, Movement Phase, Magic Phase, Shooting Phase, or Melee Phase). FAQs that cannot be ascribed to a specific phase are grouped in the Miscellaneous section. For feedback on this document, or for suggestions to include further figures explaining a specific rule or situation, please visit the dedicated thread on our forum.
