Rulebook

The value of a model's armour is determined by the equipment it carries. This is worked out as described in the Shooting section.

A model's armour value is determined by the armour it wears. Armour value is presented as a target number, meaning the lower the value, the better the chance of making a successful Armour Save roll. Light armour, for example, grants an armour value of 6+. A model's armour value can be improved (to a maximum of 2+) by other equipment carried. For example, a shield improves its bearer's armour value by 1, meaning that a model wearing light armour and carrying a shield would have an armour value of 5+. Note that a model that wears no armour should be considered to have an armour value of 7+ for the purposes of Armour Save roll modifiers and any rules that improve armour value.

Determining Armour Value

Determining Armour Saves (Combat)

With the foe outmanoeuvred and weakened by spellcraft and shooting, it is time to finish the job! The Combat phase is when your warriors hack, slice and pummel their way through the enemy ranks. A successful Combat phase can completely change the fortunes of your army and, if you have prepared well in your earlier phases, victory is likely to be your reward. The Combat phase heavily involves both players, although the active player will be the one choosing the order in which each of the combats is fought and resolved. All combats must be resolved during this phase – a unit engaged in combat with the enemy cannot choose not to fight.
