The champions of the Warhammer world are calling; the grand muster is upon us for this is a dark age, a bloody age, an age of war. Behold the Game of Fantasy Battles! The Warhammer rulebook is a massive tome divided into four mighty sections: The Rules tell you how to field your army on the tabletop; the Warhammer World delves deep into the background; the Miniatures Showcase is page-after-page of gloriously painted models; and Warhammer Battles explores the depth and breadth of the hobby.

Warhammer Fantasy Battle Magic
This core deck of 56 large-format cards contains all the spells for every magical lore printed in the Warhammer rulebook (including the signature spell and lore attribute). Each full-colour card describes one spell, and all the information you need to use it on the battlefield, including spell type, casting value and range. Not only are the spell cards a great, tactile way of representing magic in your games but on a practical level they make selecting spells easy and speed up play in the heat of battle itself; there is no need to flick through the reference section of the rulebook, just keep the Wizard’s spell cards to hand during the Magic phase.
