Magic weapons grant the wielder extra abilities, new special rules or an improved profile, the better to slay enemies. Unless otherwise stated, the following rules apply to all magic weapons:
A magic weapon cannot be used alongside an additional hand weapon, magical or mundane, to gain an extra attack.
A character that wields a magic weapon cannot set it aside to use a mundane equivalent. For example, a character cannot set aside a magic combat weapon to use a mundane great weapon instead.
If a character has more than one magic combat weapon, you must choose which they will use when their combat is chosen during Step 1.1 of the Choose & Fight Combat sub-phase and, unless the weapon itself states otherwise, the weapon chosen for the first round of a combat must be used for the duration of the combat.
If a character has more than one magic missile weapon, you must choose which they will use when they are chosen to shoot during Step 1 of the Shooting phase.
