01. Introduction


Welcome to my second WHQ guide. This one reveals warrior abilities for those of you who wish to plan the ultimate badass characters.

WARNING: SPOLIERS AHEAD

1. Always be aware that on leveling up a warrior there is a chance that they will not receive a new ability upgrade. So you may not end up with the maximum available abitiles for any given character.



2. If you are reading this and know of any abilties not included below pls let me know in the comments section and I will update the guide and credit you in the final section. Same for errors of which I expect there will be some until I get the chance to double-check information.

3. Legend for Abbreitiations:
Wnds = Wounds
Mv = Movement
Ws = Weapon Skill
Bs = Ballistic Skill
Str = Strengh
Tgh = Toughness
MA = Melee Attacks
RA = Ranged Attacks
Pin = Pinning
BL = Blessings (Warrior Priest only)
PS = Power Store (Magic Users only)
XP = Experience pts reqd to reach that level

NOTE: That level tables need verification. Also any entries marked (tbv) "may" also need verification.

Enjoy.
