The presence of a Priest of Ulric adds one dice to the Dispel pool of the army.

Ulric detests weakness and cowardice. Priests of Ulric, the Grand Master and Seneschal and any unit they lead will hate models with a Leadership characteristic of 6 or lower, even if normally Immune to Psychology. This has no effect on other characters in the unit or on the model’s mount. In addition, the following rules apply:

The Grand Master may only join units of Knights of the White Wolf. He is a veteran of hundreds of battles and strong in his faith, and so is Immune to Psychology. In addition, as long as the Grand Master is with a unit of Knights of the White Wolf, they are inspired by his presence and are Immune to Psychology as well.

The Seneschal is a veteran warrior, and is Immune to Panic. In addition his presence and leadership so reassures his troops that any unit he leads becomes Immune to Panic too. Note that the Seneschal is free to join any unit in the same way as other characters; his is a more public role than that of the Grand Master.

The Warriors of Ulric are no formal regiment, but are followers of the Wolf God from many fighting and adventuring professions united in their service of Ar-Ulric. As such they carry a diverse selection of weaponry and equipment. However, for game purposes they all count as being armed in the same way. You should make sure that the majority of models in the unit carry the correct equipment, and make clear to your opponent how the unit is equipped before the game. (Note: Mordheim figures, particularly Middenheimers, are ideal for representing Warriors of Ulric).

Hunting Hounds are used to track and hunt down Beastmen and Orcs deep within the Drakwald Forest. They suffer no movement penalties for moving through woods. They suffer penalties for other terrain as normal. Hounds cannot be joined by characters other than their Hunt Master and do not cause Panic tests in friendly units except other Hounds, although they benefit from the General’s Leadership and the Battle Standard as normal.

Hunting Hounds are often led by Hunt Masters, warriors mounted on warhorses who guide them towards the foe. The Hunt Master is bought as an upgrade in the same way as a unit Champion and is treated as a Champion in all respects, ie, he cannot be singled out as a target for missile weapons, may issue and accept challenges, etc. Note that as long as any Hounds remain alive, the Hunt Master will be restricted to their Movement of 7, even though his horse would normally be able to move faster. He still benefits from the Hounds’ Relentless Chase rule.

In each Magic phase a Priest of Ulric can use one of the following Prayers, counting it as a Bound Spell with Power Level 3.

Battle Howl: Remains in play until dispelled or the Priest attempts to use another Prayer. As long as the Battle Howl is in effect, the Priest and any unit he leads add D3" to their charge moves. If the charge is failed, the extra movement is wasted; make a normal move towards the target as normal.

Destruction: Every enemy model in base contact with the Priest suffers a single Strength 4 hit.

Winter’s Chill: All enemy units engaged in close combat with the Priest or the unit he is with must take a Leadership test. If failed, they suffer a -1 to hit penalty in the next Close Combat phase. Note that this is not a Psychology test.

Fury of Ulric: Remains in play until it is dispelled or the Priest attempts to use another Prayer. The Priest and any unit he leads become immune to fear, terror and panic.

This is the same weapon referred to in the Empire Army book as a cavalry hammer, the traditional armament of the Knights of the White Wolf. However, in this list some of the Knights of the White Wolf are on foot, so continuing to call it a cavalry hammer could get confusing! When a mounted model is using its White Wolf hammer, the cavalry hammer rules apply, namely +2 Strength in the turn the model charges and +1 Strength the rest of the time. On foot the hammer is wielded differently, and so counts as a halberd instead. In either case the weapon requires two hands to use.

Weapon; +1 to hit.

Weapon; +1 Attack.

Weapon; +1 Strength.

Weapon; -1 Armour save.

Armour; 5+ Armour save.

Talisman; 6+ Ward save.

Arcane; (One Use Only) Automatically dispel an enemy spell.

Arcane; (One Use Only)+2 dice to cast a spell.

Banner; +1 combat resolution.

The following items may not be taken in a Middenlander army, either because they are consecrated in the name of Sigmar rather than Ulric or because they are kept in the Imperial Vaults in Altdorf:

The following are new items available only to Middenlander armies.

In the year of its forging, this axe was embedded in the Ulricsberg for an entire winter, absorbing the very essence of Ulric’s power.

On a roll to hit of 6, Winter’s Bite wounds automatically with no Armour save possible.

The Storm Hammer is made of dense meteoric iron, enchanted to allow it to be wielded as easily as a normal weapon. Its massive impact can send foes reeling or smash them to the ground.

Grand Master or Seneschal only. As White Wolf hammer. Models wounded in the turn the wielder charges may not attack that turn.

This iron helm, formed into the fearsome visage of a wolf, dates from before the coming of Sigmar but shines as brightly as the day it was created. It is said that Ulric will reward a courageous wearer with great strength.

Grants a 6+ Armour save that can be combined with other armour as normal. In addition, the wearer can take a Ld test at the start of every Close Combat phase. If passed, they gain +1 Strength for the duration of that phase.

This heavy suit of armour is decorated with a golden axe and wolf-head designs. It has the power to dull the natural light and warmth from the air around it, and the very energy of blows aimed at the wearer is sapped.

As heavy armour. Attacks against the wearer in close combat suffer a -1 Strength penalty. This can affect the attack’s save modifier. Wearer is immune to Light magic.

A perfectly round stone set into a golden amulet, the Heart of Middenheim is crafted from a fragment of the keystone of the gateway to the Temple of Ulric. It has been carried by some of the finest warriors ever to have lived in the City of the White Wolf.

5+ Ward save. Wearer gains +1 to their Weapon Skill.

Anraheir was an Amber wizard who made this cloak from the hide of a Minotaur to protect himself from the Beastmen of the Drakwald.

Magic Resistance (1), wearer counts as causing fear to all Beastmen and Minotaur models.

The power of this amulet fills all who feel it with fighting spirit, all thoughts of retreat banished from their minds.

Neither the unit that carries the Bane of the Craven nor any unit they charge may ever voluntarily flee as a charge reaction. They may use any other charge reaction they would normally be allowed.

Long ago the villages around Middenheim were terrorised by a massive wolf, which became known as Horros after a savage folkloric beast. When it was finally slain by an unknown knight, the wolf ’s spirit was imprisoned within its pelt, bestowing the wearer with primal strength.

The wearer may re-roll one failed to wound roll in each Close Combat phase.

The bone of a wolf carved into the shape of a fang, the magic symbols inscribed in this totem instil a preternatural speed and eagerness in its bearer.

The character and any unit he is with can roll one extra dice when pursuing fleeing enemies, and discard the lowest roll.

This finely woven standard was blessed by Ar-Ulric Sehrhart, who single-handedly slew thirty Orcs at the Battle of Kleindorf.

When the unit carrying this banner takes a Break test, they count as having lost the combat by D3 fewer points than they really did. If this reduces the margin of the loss to 0 or lower, they still count as having lost the combat but test on their unmodified Leadership. This has no effect on other friendly units in a multiple combat, which must test as normal.

The origins of this banner are unknown, but centuries ago it was adopted as the battle standard of the City of the White Wolf. Its power fills the troops under it with great courage, inspiring them to defy the most terrifying of foes.

The unit carrying the banner is immune to fear and terror.

The Standard of the White Wolf is made from the pelt of a massive wolf from the Drakwald Forest. It has the power to protect its followers from the arrows and bullets of the enemy.

All missile fire against the unit (including magic missiles) suffers a -1 penalty to its Strength. Other types of attack, including spells that are not magic missiles, are unaffected.

The following items can only be chosen by Priests of Ulric. Their value counts towards the bearer’s maximum points allowance for magic items. However, they are not magical per se, and items or spells that have a special effect against magic items will not affect them. Unlike magic items you may include more than one of each item, even multiple items of the same type on a single Priest.

The wolf ’s head is the most archetypal symbol of Ulric. Before a campaign the Priests of Ulric will bless many Wolfshead Emblems, such as medallions and brooches, with the power to ward away sorcery.

One use only. Before making a Dispel attempt, the player can declare he is using a Wolfshead Emblem. This allows him to roll one extra dice for the Dispel attempt. You do not necessarily have to use any of the army’s normal Dispel dice – you may choose to use only the Wolfshead Emblem’s dice, and more than one Emblem may be used against a spell if you wish.

Only the most favoured priests are gifted by Ar-Ulric with the incisor of a white wolf set into an amber medallion as a medal of their faith and service.

A Priest carrying an Amber Fang can use an additional Prayer in each Magic phase. He may only successfully use each Prayer once. A Priest may only use one additional Prayer; there is no further bonus for additional Amber Fangs.

The Ice Dagger is not a weapon, but an icon of Ulric as the savagery of the piercing winter chill. It is usually worn on a chain around the neck.

The Ice Dagger is a powerful icon of Ulric’s wrath, and the Priest draws strength from the faith and courage of those around him. The Priest bearing the Ice Dagger may add the current rank bonus of the unit he accompanies to the Power level of his Prayers. The rank bonus may only be added once; there is no further bonus for additional Ice Daggers.

A Fang of the Winter Wolf is a tooth taken from one of the largest wolves of the Drakwald Forest and blessed by Ar-Ulric himself. They are said to be potent talismans, and possession of one instills a priest with supreme confidence.

One use only. Before using a Prayer, a Priest of Ulric may declare he is using his Fang of the Winter Wolf. The Prayer counts as being cast with Irresistible Force, in the same way as a magic spell cast with two dice rolls of 6.

Skoll is a legendary wolf from Teutogen folklore, the companion of Ulric himself who chases away the sun to allow the onset of winter. The Shards of Skoll, relics kept in bronze or iron amulets, are said to be fragments of the great wolf ’s claws and fangs.

The Shard adds +1 to the score of every dice rolled when making a Dispel attempt, up to a maximum of 6. Note that this makes automatic failure impossible, and automatic success far more likely. Only one Shard can be used against a single spell. If the Dispel attempt was successful the Shard is destroyed, shattered by the magic it absorbs, but otherwise it can be retained and used again.
