Special Rule
Prayers of Sigmar:

During the Command sub-phase of their turn, this character may attempt to invoke Sigmar’s blessings by chanting a single Prayer from the list below and making a Leadership test (using their own Leadership). If this test is passed, the Prayer takes immediate effect:

• Hammer Of Sigmar: Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model, its mount and a single friendly unit that is within its Command range when this Prayer is chanted* may re-roll any rolls To Hit or To Wound of a natural 1 made during the Combat phase.

• Shield Of Faith: Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model and a single friendly unit that is within its Command range when this Prayer is chanted* has a 5+ Ward save against any wounds suffered during the Shooting phase.

• Soulfire: A single enemy unit this model is engaged in combat with immediately suffers D6 Strength 3 hits, each with an AP of -2. These hits have the Flaming Attacks and Magical Attacks special rules.

*Note that if more than one friendly unit is within this model’s Command range when this Prayer is chanted, you must tell your opponent which unit is affected.

Note also that the effects of these Prayers on friendly units are not cumulative. In other words, a friendly unit cannot be affected by the same Prayer more than once during the same turn.

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.

Magical Attacks:

Any attack made or hit caused by a model with this special rule, or made using a weapon with this special rule, is a ‘Magical’ attack.

Note that all spells are considered to have this special rule, as are any hits caused by magic items.
