BATTLETOME: KHARADRON OVERLORDS
Designers’ Commentary, June 2018
The following commentary is intended to complement
Battletome: Kharadron Overlords. It is presented as a series
of questions and answers; the questions are based on
ones that have been asked by players, and the answers
are provided by the rules writing team explain and how
the rules are intended to be used. The commentaries
help provide a default setting for your games, but players
should always feel free to discuss the rules before a
game, and change things as they see fit if they both want
to do so (changes like this are usually referred to as
‘house rules’).
Our commentaries are updated regularly; when changes
are made any changes from the previous version will
be highlighted in magenta. Where the stated date has
a note, e.g. ‘Revision 2’, this means it has had a local
update, only in that language, to clarify a translation
issue or other minor correction.
Q: Are the sky-ports rules allegiance abilities – that is, can they
only be used by Kharadron Overlords armies?
A: Yes.
Q: When using a Skywarden’s or Endrinrigger’s Grapnel
Launcher, can you pick any part of a terrain feature to measure
the range to? Can you enter that terrain feature, or just move
towards it?
A: The range is measured to the closest point of the
terrain feature. The move is made towards the closest
point of the terrain feature, and ends when you reach it
(so you cannot enter it).
Q: Do models slain by and/or caused to flee by the first
battleshock test caused by an Aethershock Earbuster count as
slain for battleshock tests at the end of the turn?
A: Yes.
Q: If a unit does not have to take battleshock tests, does this
apply to battleshock tests caused by an Aethershock Earbuster?
A: Yes.
