DESCRIPTION

A Battlemage is a single model armed with a Wizard’s Staff.

ABILITIES

Magic of the Realms: Battlemages are as varied as the Mortal Realms themselves, and each knows how to harness the arcane might of the land they call home.
When you select this model to be part of your army, you must choose the realm that your Battlemage comes from. You can choose from the following realms: Aqshy, Azyr, Chamon, Ghur, Ghyran, Hysh, Shyish or Ulgu. Add 1 to casting rolls for this model if the battle is taking place in the realm it comes from.

MAGIC

This model is a WIZARD. It can attempt to cast 1 spell in your hero phase and attempt to unbind 1 spell in the enemy hero phase. It knows the Arcane Bolt and Mystic Shield spells.

In addition, this model knows the spell from this warscroll that includes the name of the realm it comes from. For example, Battlemages that come from Azyr know Chain Lightning.

Chain Lightning (Azyr): Lightning bursts from the wizard’s fingertips and arcs towards the enemy with crackling fury.
Chain Lightning has a casting value of 6. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. That unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. Then,roll a dice for every other enemy unit within 6" of the original target. On a 4+, that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds.

Fireball (Aqshy): The wizard claps their hands, conjuring a small orb of flame that they hurl at the foe.
Fireball has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. If the enemy unit has 1 model, it suffers 1 mortal wound; if it has 2 to 9 models, it suffers D3 mortal wounds; and if it has 10 or more models, it suffers D6 mortal wounds.

Mystifying Miasma (Ulgu): The wizard creates a numbing fog that causes their foolish foes to listlessly stagger and stumble.
Mystifying Miasma has a casting value of 4. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. That unit cannot run until your next hero phase. In addition, subtract 2 from charge rolls for that unit until your next hero phase.

Pall of Doom (Shyish): A cloud of terrifying darkness pours forth and engulfs the wizard’s foes.
Pall of Doom has a casting value of 6. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. Subtract 2 from the Bravery characteristic of that unit until your next hero phase.

Pha’s Protection (Hysh): The wizard calls upon the beneficent Guardians of Light to protect their allies from harm.
Pha’s Protection has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick 1 friendly unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. Subtract 1 from hit rolls for attacks that target that unit until your next hero phase.

Shield of Thorns(Ghyran): At the wizard’s command, crawling brambles burst from the ground, forming a living barrier around their allies.
Shield of Thorns has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick 1 friendly unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. Until your next hero phase, any enemy unit that finishes a charge move within 3" of that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds.

Transmutation of Lead (Chamon): As the wizard gestures at their foes, their weapons and armour become significantly heavier and more cumbersome.
Transmutation of Lead has a casting value of 7. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. Until your next hero phase, halve the Move characteristic of the unit you picked, rounding up. In addition, if that unit has a Save characteristic of 2+, 3+ or 4+, you can re-roll hit rolls of 1 for attacks that target that unit until your next hero phase.

Wildform (Ghur): The wizard transforms their allies into swift-moving bestial forms.
Wildform has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick 1 friendly unit within 12" of the caster that is visible to them. Add 2 to run and charge rolls for that unit until your next hero phase.

KEYWORDS

Hit Roll
Roll a dice. If the roll equals or beats the attacking weapon’s To Hit characteristic, the attack scores a hit and you must make a wound roll. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. An unmodified hit roll of 1 always fails and an unmodified hit roll of 6 always hits. A hit roll cannot be modified by more than +1 or -1 (this is an exception to the principle that abilities take precedence over core rules).

Sometimes an ability will allow a single hit roll to score two or more hits. If this is the case, make all of the wound and save rolls for those hits at the same time.
14.5 Mortal Wounds
Some attacks, spells and abilities cause mortal wounds. Do not make hit, wound or save rolls for mortal wounds. Instead, the damage inflicted on the target is equal to the number of mortal wounds that were caused.

Mortal wounds caused while a unit is attacking are allocated at the same time as wounds caused by the unit’s attacks: after all of the unit’s attacks have been made. Mortal wounds caused at other times are allocated as soon as they are caused. Mortal wounds are allocated in the same way as wounds and are treated in the same manner as wounds for rules purposes.

8.3 Run
When you pick a unit to run, you must make a run roll for the unit by rolling a dice. Add the run roll to the Move characteristic of all models in the unit until the end of that phase. You can then move each model in that unit a distance in inches equal to or less than their modified Move characteristic. No part of a run can be within 3" of an enemy unit. You cannot shoot or attempt a charge later in the turn with a unit that has run. Units cannot run if they are within 3" of an enemy unit.
11.1 Charge Moves
When you attempt a charge with a unit, make a charge roll for the unit by rolling 2D6. You can then make a charge move with each model in that unit by moving the model a distance in inches that is equal to or less than the charge roll. The first model you move in a unit attempting a charge must finish the move within 1/2" of an enemy unit. If this is impossible, no models in the unit can make a charge move.

You do not have to pick a target for a charge attempt before making the charge roll.
19.1 Casting Spells
In your hero phase, you can attempt to cast spells with friendly WIZARDS. You cannot attempt to cast the same spell more than once in the same hero phase, even with a different WIZARD. In order to attempt to cast a spell, pick a friendly WIZARD, say which of the spells that they know will be attempted, and then make a casting roll by rolling 2D6. If the casting roll is equal to or greater than the casting value of the spell, the spell is successfully cast.

19.1.2 Unbinding Spells
If a spell is successfully cast, your opponent can pick 1 of their WIZARDS that is within 30" of the caster to attempt to unbind the spell before its effects are applied. In order to attempt to unbind a spell, first say which WIZARD will attempt to unbind it. Then make an unbinding roll by rolling 2D6. If the unbinding roll is greater than the roll used to cast the spell, then the spell is unbound and its effects are not applied. The number of spells a WIZARD can attempt to unbind is noted on their warscroll. Only 1 unbinding attempt can be made for each spell.
Arcane Bolt
The caster calls forth a ball of crackling arcane energy that hovers above their outstretched hand, ready to be hurled at a foe.
Arcane Bolt is a spell that has a casting value of 5 and a range of 12". If successfully cast, at the start of any 1 phase before your next hero phase, you can pick 1 enemy unit within range and visible to the caster. That unit suffers 1 mortal wound. If that unit is within 3" of the caster, it suffers D3 mortal wounds instead of 1.
Mystic Shield
The caster conjures up a shield of shimmering energy to protect themselves or an ally from harm.
Mystic Shield is a spell that has a casting value of 5 and a range of 12". If successfully cast, pick 1 friendly unit wholly within range and visible to the caster. Add 1 to save rolls for attacks that target that unit until your next hero phase.
