Changes to Battlescrolls- New Rules for Dealing with them


This is most likely important to note. Changes and goals for upgraded Age of Sigmar Battlescrolls. There are a list of changes at the bottom and of course links to download your own for your armies.

The first thing you’ll notice with this Battlescroll is that we’ve tweaked the format a bit to carry forward any rules changes from previous Battlescrolls that are still in effect. In future, Battlescroll changes will be handled as follows:
  • There will only ever be one active Battlescroll at a time. 
  • Rules changes will be carried forward until they have been printed in a book (e.g. core rules changes from Battlescroll: Gods & Heroes have now been printed in the latest General’s Handbook).
  • New rules changes will be highlighted in magenta.
  • Points changes will be summarised but will not be carried forward into future Battlescrolls as they will be implemented in the Age of Sigmar app and Warscroll Builder.
  • All changes – including points – will be included in errata documents for the appropriate factions, available here.
As we explained in the previous instalment of Metawatch, we have three primary short-term goals for balance in competitive play for Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
  • External Balance: All factions should have a win rate of between a 45% and 55%
  • Internal Balance: At least 60% of warscrolls should be used in at least 5% of army rosters
  • Universal Options: Universal warscrolls (such as Endless Spells and Incarnates) and universal enhancements should be used in under 10% of army rosters
