in combat% he will stand firm and continue to fight while his unit flees% denying the foe the chance to
!ursue.

to the normal #nbrea$able rules.
Disguised

form of a huge cloa$ he wra!s around himself to conceal his enormous white beard% a clear sign of an
Ancestor*
&f you wish% the White Dwarf may start the game hidden in the ran$s of any Dwarf unit e)ce!t a war
machine and its crew.
&f disguised% the White Dwarf is not !laced on the table during de!loyment% but is assumed to mo'e
along with the unit within which he is hidden. At the start of the game% ma$e a note of which unit he is
concealed in. &f the unit is wi!ed out or flees then the White Dwarf will be re'ealed% and will stand his
ground e'en though the rest of the unit may be fleeing or slain.
The White Dwarf may re'eal his true self at the start of any +lose +ombat !hase. At this !oint he is
immediately !laced in the front ran$ of his chosen unit% dis!lacing one of the normal ran$"and"file
models. &f there are no such models in the front ran$% then he must be !laced in the second ran$.

he has been re'ealed.
agic !tems
Rune "elm of #hufbar
Those Dwarfs who have glimpsed the awesome helmet worn upon the White Dwarf's troubled brow
have described the sight they beheld. Runesmiths have identified this magnificent helmet as the Lost
Rune Helm of Zhufbar which vanished many years ago when that particular stronghold was overrun
by greens!ins.
Any fleeing unit of Dwarfs will !ass Rally tests automatically if they are attem!ting to rally within ./0 of
the Rune 1elm of 2hufbar.
$rmour of Glimril Scales
"fter the #attle of Thraag in which the White Dwarf slew $%%%% Warriors of &haos to rescue the
foolhardy 'ngi (o)&hance and his fol! a single scale of armour was found clenched in the teeth of
the Lord of &haos. *t was forged from a metal totally un!nown by the Dwarf fol!. The Runesmiths were
com!letely mystified and called it Glimril% belie'ing that it had been forged by the Ancestor Gods
themsel'es* The Armour of Glimril Scales gi'es the White Dwarf a .3 armour sa'e% and also a 43 ward
sa'e.
Rune %loa& of 'ala(a
The runes embroidered on the great cloa! worn by the White Dwarf display without doubt that it was
woven by +alaya herself. "t least one saga relates that +alaya the Dwarf "ncestor ,oddess and
protector of the Dwarf fol! fell in love with the White Dwarf on account of his magnificent white beard
and gave him the cloa! as a to!en of her esteem.
The White Dwarf has 5agic Resistance 678 when wearing the Rune +loa$.

Dwarf/
This a)e gi'es Grombrindal 3/ Strength and allows him to re"roll any failed rolls to hit and any failed

armour sa'es.
