Special Rule
Dwarf Crafted:

Models with this special rule do not suffer the usual -1 To Hit modifier when making a Stand & Shoot charge reaction.

Hatred:

A model with this special rule may re-roll any failed rolls To Hit made against a hatred enemy during the first round of combat.

Which enemies are hated varies from model to model and will be shown in brackets after the name of this special rule. Some models hate 'all enemies' meaning they hate all enemy models equally.

Magic Resistance:

The Casting roll of any enemy spell (including Bound Spells) that targets a unit that includes one or more models with this special rule suffers a modifier, as shown in brackets after the name of this special rule (-X).

Note that this special rule is not cumulative. If two or more models in a unit have this special rule, use the highest modifier.

Resolute:

Models with this special rule suffer a -1 modifier to the result of any Flee roll or Pursuit roll they make (to a minimum of 1).

Move Through Cover:

Models with this special rule do not suffer any modifiers to their Movement characteristic for moving through difficult or dangerous terrain. In addition, a model with this special rule may re-roll any rolls of 1 when making Dangerous Terrain tests.

Scouts:

Units with this special rule may be deployed after all other units from both armies. They can be deployed anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 12" away from an enemy model. If deployed in this way, Scouts cannot declare a charge during their first turn.

If both armies contain Scouts, a roll-off should determine which player deploys Scouts first. The players then alternate deploying their scouting units one at a time, starting with the player who won the roll-off.

Skirmishers:

A unit consisting of models with this special rule may adopt a Skirmish formation.

Open Order:

A unit consisting of models with this special rule may adopt an Open Order formation.

Ancestral Fury:

During a turn in which a unit in a Royal Clan army makes a charge move of 3" or more, or made a follow up move, it gains a +1 modifier to its Strength characteristic.

Striking a Grudge:

After deployment but before the first turn begins, nominate a single enemy character. For one reason or another, this individual has earned themselves a place in the Clan's Book of Grudges and must be brought to justice. All friendly models gain the Hatred (nominated enemy character) special rule. In addition, you win a bonus of 75 Victory Points if the nominated character is slain, has fled the battlefield or is fleeing when the game ends.
