WHAT'S IT LIKE TO PLAY WARHAMMER? title image.

Battle for Skull Pass walks you through all the steps that make up a game of Warhammer. Each side alternates taking their turn: first, one player moves, shoots, and fights with his army. Then, the other player does the same with his army. Back and forth you go until one player achieves victory and is declared the winner. Here's a description of the three phases of each player's turn.

MOVEMENT. Picture showing a unit of Goblin miniatures on the move.
MOVE INTO POSITION

At the Movement Phase stage of the game, you move your models around the battlefield, or even into combat with your enemies. Maneuvering your units around the battlefield is a vital part of the game.

SHOOTING. Picture of Goblin Archers lining up to shoot.
READY, AIM, FIRE

In the Shooting Phase, any units that are allowed can fire missile weapons, such as bows or handguns. Ranged attacks like these help you soften up the enemy for your final hand-to-hand assault.

CLOSE COMBAT. Picture of Goblin and Dwarf miniatures locked in battle.
IT'S GO TIME!

In the Close Combat Phase, units in contact with each other battle it out in the hack-and-slash of personal combat. If the slaughter is great, the victors can induce the losers to run away — maybe even right off the table!
