Advanced Firestorm
Introduction
The Firestorm Advanced campaign takes the Firestorm campaign for Age of Sigmar and
adds some advanced rules to the map. It assumes that the players have the Firestorm box,
though only the map and tokens are used. The Secret Objective cards are in play, but the
other cards are not used.
Starting the Campaign
Up to four factions may exist on the map. If you have more than four players, assign
players to a faction and they fight for their faction as a single entity.
The four factions will start play in each of the four corners on the map.
The starting location gains the Lords Tower domain item. The territory upgrades will be
detailed below.
The players then each draw a Secret Objective card from the Firestorm box. This can
result in rewards later in the campaign if achieved.
Alliances and Breaking the Rules of Matched Play Allegiances
This is a narrative campaign and some changing of the matched play paradigm is present.
If your factions involve multiple players, it can occur that sometimes your faction has
mixed allegiances present.
For example, if there were five players in a campaign, and three are stormcast, one is
seraphon, and one is death, a combination may be for the three stormcast to be in one
faction, and the seraphon and death players to be in another.
How that is ultimately set up is up to your group, but in cases such as this, the seraphon
and death players would be able to take seraphon and death units in their forces as if they
were allies.
Mixed allegiance forces such as this must choose a primary allegiance though (Order,
Chaos, Death, Destruction) for purposes of their banner special rules.

Army Banners
Each faction begins play with one Army Banner that starts in their originating territory.
An Army Banner represents an entire army that the faction can field, with the players’
forces being a part of that banner. Army Banner’s on the table can represent any point
value that the players wish when playing their games, though the default is 2,000 points.
Defeated Army Banners
During a campaign turn, if an Army Banner is defeated, some negative consequences will
be had by the owning player or players. In the case of a banner owned by multiple
players, calculate the overall status of the banner by summing up the victories and defeats
by the players.
For example, if a banner was owned by one player, then the result of that player’s game
would determine what happened to the banner.
If the banner was owned by two players, sum the results of the battles fought by that
banner.
If the banner had two major defeats, then the banner would count as an overall result of a
major defeat. If the banner had a major and minor defeat, take the lesser of the two
results (the minor defeat). If the banner had a major victory and a minor defeat, it would
count as a minor victory. If the banner had a major victory and a major defeat, that would
count as a draw.
Draw or Minor Defeat – a banner that suffers a minor defeat will be forced to retreat one
territory away into a territory that they own. If the banner cannot move into a friendly
territory that the army owns, then the banner is scattered.
Major Defeat – a banner that suffers a major defeat must roll a D6. On the result of a 4+,
it will be forced to retreat as if they suffered a Minor Defeat. If the result is a 1-3, the
banner is scattered.
Annihilated – a banner that is tabled (that is, all of its models are destroyed) is said to be
annihilated. A banner that is annihilated will always be scattered.

ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Turns
Players start each turn by rolling initiative. Any ties are re-rolled until there is a set order
amongst the players from turn to turn.
Each player or faction then records the orders that they will give their banner(s).
5
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Starting from the player or faction that rolled highest, players reveal their orders and
proceed to move their banners.
Banners that are in a territory that are attacked by another player or faction before they
have moved will default to a Hold order if they have given their force an order to move or
march.
Named Characters
Named Characters are special characters like Nagash or Archaon. They follow the
normal rules of Age of Sigmar and can be included in your forces. If they are slain in
battle, they will roll to determine if they are truly dead the same as your normal characters
do (meaning on the roll of a “1” they are permanently removed from the campaign)

ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Orders
Move – Your banner may move one territory. If this causes your banner to enter a
territory that is either unclaimed or is claimed but has no opposing banner or enemy
garrison upon it, the territory is now owned by your force.
If the territory is occupied by an opposing garrison or enemy banner, a battle will be
fought for that territory.
Territories that are conquered lose any Mustering Grounds, Barracks, or War Lodges
(effectively losing their garrisons) but keep any other upgrades.
Forced March – Your banner may move up to two territories following the same rules for
Move. Additionally, after a Forced March, if your banner is in combat then it is Fatigued.
During the battle, all units within the banner that Forced Marched are at -1 to hit. This
status is removed at the beginning of the next campaign turn.
Fortify – If your banner is in a territory with no stronghold, it may fortify its position. It
may not move, but if it is attacked the controlling player may set up to three linear
obstacles of no more than 12” long each after forces have been deployed. These count as
OBSTACLES.
Hold – The banner does nothing this turn.
Battles
When fighting battles, generate the battle using the Open War deck or the Open War
Scenario generator by default. Optionally if
you and your opponent have a Battleplan
that you’d like to use, feel free to use that
instead.

Build Points
Build Points are gained after
each battle that is fought.
Win or lose, the players each
gain D3 Build Points. The
winner of the battle may re-
roll this value. Build Points
can be spent immediately or
banked for use after a future
battle.
This means that actively
avoiding battles will result in
a lack of Build Points.
Garrisons
A garrison comes with certain upgrades. It counts as a 1500 point standing force of
troops that cannot move from the territory that it is stationed in. Garrison buildings
cannot stack (you will always only have the points granted by a single garrison in the
territory).
If both a banner and a garrison exist in the same territory, the army banner receives +250
points as if it were reinforced by an adjacent allied banner.
Spending Build Points
After all battles have been fought, players may spend some or all of their Build Points.
Build Points may be used to add items to any territory currently possessed by the player.
Items marked with an asterisk may not share the same territory as something else with an
asterisk.
Lord’s Towers may not share the same territory with anything else.

Scoring
Players and factions will be fighting to earn Glory Points. Glory Points are what are used
to determine an overall victor.
The first player or faction to score 30 Glory Points wins the campaign.
Glory Points are earned in the following ways:
• Every territory that you hold is worth 1 Glory Point. The exception are the special
territories, which are worth 2 Glory Points each.
• Every Draw or Minor Victory that you achieve is worth 1 Glory Point.
• Every Major Victory is worth 2 Glory Points.
• Scepters of Flame are worth 5 Glory Points. You may only construct one.
• Certain Build Events grant Glory Points. These will be noted for the event.
• Certain territories generate bonus Glory Points. These will be noted in the
Firestorm rules for each territory.

ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Path to Glory
Path to Glory advancements can be used after battles in the campaign provided a barracks
exists in your domain. Legacy armies that have acquired Path to Glory advancements
may start the campaign with their advancements.
Units and Characters are eligible for an upgrade provided they survived the battle. Units
and Characters roll on the Unit experience chart. Your army commander rolls on the
Champion chart should they get an upgrade.
After a battle, you may upgrade one unit or character that survived. If you won, you may
upgrade a different unit or character.
Units and Characters may only ever have one upgrade, though these may be changed out
after battle by nominating them for upgrade and rolling. Your army commander can have
any number of upgrades.
Your army commander for each of your banners should stay persistent throughout the
campaign.
Death and Dying
After the battle, units that are destroyed lose their upgraded ability on the D6 roll of a 1-3.
If your army commander is slain during the battle, roll a D6. On the roll of a “1” he is
permanently killed, and all upgrades that he may have accumulated are lost forever. On
the roll of a 2+ he has escaped death (for now).
Note: if you own multiple banners, your army commander will vary from banner to
banner (and thus
you can have
multiple
characters that
use the champion
upgrade table)

ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Terrain Generation
There are a number of ways that terrain can be generated for battles. The easiest is to
have a player set up the terrain and the other player may pick table sides. Another way is
to have a neutral third party set up the terrain. Last, players can generate D3 pieces of
terrain per 2x2 tile and alternate placing terrain.
Faction Bonuses
Each of the four grand alliances receives a special campaign bonus. In the instance where
your faction is composed of multiple alliances, one of the grand alliances for the entire
faction must be chosen and adhered to.
• Order – The soldiers of the God King Sigmar and of the pantheon that he has
assembled are disciplined and well trained. When given an order to Fortify, an
Order banner will also generate an additional 150 points for any battles that they
fought while under the Fortify order.
• Chaos – The warriors of the fell gods are brutal and unforgiving. Chaos banners
may Raze any territory that they are on. If an enemy banner or garrison is present,
they must first win a battle before Razing the territory. A Razed territory loses any
upgrades built upon it.
• Death – The dead are not easy to scatter, for grave sites are everywhere across the
realms, and a cunning general of the undead need merely tap into these raw
resources to assemble another force. Scattered Death banners may also choose to
reform at the closest Mustering Grounds that they possess in addition to a
Stronghold or their Lord’s Tower.
• Destruction – Such is the speed of the forces of Destruction, that an army on the
march is truly a terror to behold. Destruction banners may move an additional
territory when they Forced March.

The walls of a fortress can provide haven for those within. Assaulting a fortress requires a
good deal of men, for taking the walls is never an easy task and many lives will be lost
undertaking the assault.
These rules were written to provide a more historical-based set of siege rules as opposed
to what was given by the Chaos Dreadhold book. The rules listed here override some of
the rules given for the terrain pieces within that book, and where a change has been made
it shall be noted, otherwise you can feel free to use the other pieces of the terrain scrolls in
that book.
The layout of the castle is up to the defender ultimately. He may make it take up as much
or as little space as he wishes, though the attacking force always has a deployment zone of
two full realm of battle tiles.

Towers
Also known as “Skull Keeps”. Towers have 15 wounds, a save of 1+, and are impervious
to weapons that do not have at least a rending value of -2.
Garrison: Towers can house a garrison.
Capacity: Towers can house 10 infantry-sized models, or 5 ogre-sized models per level of
the tower. Towers cannot contain models that have the MONSTER keyword.
Warmachines can garrison a building but must be set on top of the tower’s battlements.
Access Points: Towers require access points to enter and exit from. Units do not just
evaporate into a tower and evaporate out of one. It is possible to block a unit within a
tower by having models surround its access points.
Attacking a Tower: Enemy units can launch an attack against a tower simply by charging
the tower’s access points in the combat phase. Up to ten models per side may fight in the
melee phase.
Destroying a Tower: Towers that are destroyed should be replaced with a rubble pile.
Any unit(s) within the tower when it is destroyed must have a D6 rolled per model
within. On the roll of a 4+, the model suffers a MORTAL WOUND. If it survives it may
be placed up to 3” away from the rubble pile so long as it is also 3” away from an enemy
unit. Models that cannot do so are destroyed. Tower rubble is impassable terrain.
18
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Keeps
Also known as “Overlord Bastions”. Keeps hold the same rules as Towers, with the
exception that they have 20 wounds and the capacity increases to 20 models per level.
In melee combat, up to 20 models may participate per side.
Gates
Also known as “Malefic Gates”. Gates are often the weakest point on a fortress and thus
usually the focal point of any attack.
Gates have 10 wounds, a 1+ save, and are impervious to attacks that do not have a rend
value of -2 or greater. This includes weapons that do mortal wounds but do not have a
rend value of -2 or greater (the exception being the siege equipment).
Man the Gates!, Arcane Blast are both in effect (Refer to the gate warscroll)
Opening and Closing the Gate
The side that controls the fortress may open or close the gate in their HERO phase. The
opposing side must find another way into the fortress, usually accomplished by battering
the gate down through force or sorcery (or both). A gate can only be opened/closed
once per turn.
Fortress Walls
Walls make up a good portion of a fortress’s defenses. The battlements provide cover for
troops on top, and are difficult to control without powerful siege equipment.
Walls have 12 wounds and are impervious to weapons that do not have a rend value of -2
or greater.
Battlements – Models that are on the battlements are treated as if they were Garrisoning
while they control the wall section.
Destroying Battlements – When a wall section is brought to six wounds remaining, the
bonuses for Battlements is lost as the piece of scenery is now too damaged to provide that
benefit.
19
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Assaulting a Wall – An all-out assault on a wall section is deadly business. All units can
scale the wall and attack it either through grappling hooks or ladders by simply declaring a
charge against the wall section and rolling high enough to reach the wall. However,
fighting from a ladder against an opponent trying to kill you who is safe atop a battlement
makes things a bit more difficult.
Attackers are at -1 to hit (a 6 always hits) until they have successfully taken the wall.
The side that inflicts more damage during a melee phase is declared the winner and
controls the wall section.
Note: flying models that attack a wall do not suffer the above penalties when attacking
defenders atop a wall or battlement.
Damaging a Wall – Like towers, wall sections can be destroyed. Once a wall is destroyed,
all models on that section suffer a MORTAL WOUND on the roll of a 4+ and the wall
section should be replaced with a pile of rubble that now counts as Dangerous Terrain.
Models moving over it must roll a D6, and on a 1 they suffer a MORTAL WOUND.
Wall and Wall Section – A wall section is an individual piece of scenery. Multiple wall
sections compose a wall. The entire wall is defined as the point between one tower and
another. Taking a wall means taking the wall sections that make up that wall.

Attacker Siege Points (1 Siege Point for one item, unless otherwise noted)
• Log Ram – given to a unit – in the melee phase does D6 MORTAL WOUNDS to
a gate section. The player using the log ram may roll 2D6 and choose the highest
result.
• Battering Ram – given to a unit – the unit cannot run and must have at least five
models to push the battering ram. In the melee phase does D6 MORTAL
WOUNDS to a gate section. Its roof provides cover for the unit pushing it and
offers a 4+ special save against MORTAL WOUNDS.
• Mantlets – given to a unit – the unit may deploy 2D6” closer to the fortress and
while behind the mantlet it provides cover. Mantlets may be pushed forward on
wheels. The unit cannot run.
• Siege Tower – given to a unit – unit deploys 2D6” closer to the fortress and the
unit may not run – requires at least ten models remaining in the unit to push – has
8 wounds and a 4+ save. Provides cover for the unit pushing it. Siege Towers that
are in contact with the walls allow the unit within to ignore the penalty for
assaulting walls (the defender receiving a cover bonus, and the defender being -2
to hit). Units inside of a siege tower that is destroyed suffer the same fate as being
inside a tower that is destroyed.
• Reinforced Battering Ram – identical to a Battering Ram except that the save is
increased to a 3+. This item costs 2 siege points.
• Reinforced Siege Tower – identical to a Siege Tower except that its save is
increased to a 3+ save. This item costs 2 siege points.
• Siege Artillery – the player may place a piece of artillery from his faction
• Explosives – one unit may be given explosives. If the unit charges a fortress
section, it may deploy the explosives. The explosives do D6 mortal wounds to the
section. This is a one-use item. Units with explosives that are hit by ranged attacks
and killed will cause their unit to suffer an additional Mortal Wound as they
explode.

Fighting in a Siege
A siege was not a quick affair, though in the interests of time this ruleset provides a
structure to resolve the actions of a siege fairly quickly but also leaves open the possibility
for players to explore playing out the entire siege from front to back.
When a siege is begun on a fortress or on a city with walls, the attacker sets the pace of the
siege while the defenders wait behind their walls. The attacker can instantly start with the
All-Out Assault scenario, as given at the beginning of this appendix.
However, sometimes patience is the better plan, and to simulate this the Attacker may
opt to wait and perform other actions which can benefit them. The Defender may also
perform actions if the final assault is not ordered, and such the siege moves from phase to
phase until time runs out and the attacker orders the final assault.
Time is not infinite however, and the attacker has a limited number of turns to order the
final assault. To represent this, at the beginning of every Siege Turn, roll a D6. On the
roll of a 6, the Final Assault must be declared. Add +1 to this roll for every turn that has
passed up to that point in the siege.
Beginning the Siege
The attacking player rolls a D6 to start the siege. ON the roll of a 1-3, the defenders have
spotted the attackers from a distance and send forth messengers to call for help. Play out
Scenario 1 – Send for Help! If the defenders win this, they may subtract one from the
Siege Turn dice to determine if time has run out. Additionally, they may choose to Bring
Reinforcements as an option.
If the attacking player rolls a 4-6 then they have caught the defenders off guard. Play
Scenario 2 – A Forlorn Hope.
Siege Turns
A siege turn is nothing more than a decision that the attacker or defender may make. The
attacker decides if they are performing the final assault or not, and the defender chooses
an option as well if the attacker is waiting.
24
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Each option is laid out in detail below, and for brevity you may choose to roll on a chart to
determine its outcome, OR you can choose to fight it out in a Battleplan if you have the
time to do so.
25
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
26
ADVANCED FIRESTORM
Siege Equipment – The besieging player loses D3 Siege Points, to a minimum of zero.
Ammunition and Supplies – The besieging player pays double points for his
Warmachines in the final assault representing the difficulty in finding replacement
machines and ammunition!
Bring Reinforcements
If Send For Help scenario was successful, the Besieged Player may opt to play out this
scenario, Battleplan 4 – Reinforcements. For each unit breaking through, the Besieged
Player may add D3 points to their force for the Final Assault, to a maximum of 5D3
points. These points may be used on any unit within the faction of the player.
Alternatively, the player may roll D6 and subtract 1 from the result to determine the
results of this Battleplan.
Construct Siege Equipment
You can choose to construct more Siege Points in preparation of the Final Assault. Doing
this adds an additional Siege Point to the total you may spend in the Final Assault.
Repair Defenses
This option allows you to repair any breaches in the defenses that may have occurred up
to this point. You may completely repair a tower, wall, or gate before the beginning of the
Final Assault.
All damage is
completely
repaired.

scenario is successful if you roll a 5+. If you are victorious then the gates of the
stronghold will be destroyed before the start of the Final Assault.
Infiltrate
You send forth spies and infiltrators within the stronghold to destroy supplies and storage
rooms. If you do this, play out Siege Scenario 5 – Infiltrate. Alternatively, on the roll of a
4+ this scenario is considered successful.
If victorious, then the defender pays double siege points for any of their equipment in the
Final Assault.
Construct Siege Equipment
You construct more Siege equipment, adding an additional Siege Point to your total for
the Final Assault.

First Turn?
The besiegers go first.
Scenario Duration and Victory
The scenario lasts only four turns. The besieged must hold the key position for four turns
to win. This is the length of time it takes for their courier to get back to the stronghold.
At this point the besieged side’s patrol must fall back or be destroyed.
If a unit from the besieged force is within 6” of the key feature at the end of the fourth
turn, the besieged side wins, otherwise the game ends in a victory for the besieging side.
If the besieged side is victorious, the defenders lose 5 points from their forces as they were
caught outside of the gates and destroyed.
Quick Results
If no time is had to play out this scenario then the besieging player rolls a D6. On the roll
of a 4+ he has destroyed the enemy patrol. Otherwise, the courier makes it back to the
stronghold.

If the attackers break the fortress gate or wipe out all of the defenders then the game ends
with the attackers winning. If the gate is still standing at the end of the fifth turn and there
are any defending troops left to defend it, then the besieged force is victorious.

This battle takes place near a country lane near the stronghold which leads to a secret
gateway into the stronghold. This gateway was overlooked by the attackers who do not
know the area well. There are open fields on either side of the road which could be used
by the wagon as a last resort, but the going will be much slower.
Forces
The besieging force may take up to 500 points, which includes any hero up to 3 points.
The besieged player also has 500 points, which may include a hero of up to 3 points.
Additionally, they include a Wagon with a movement value of 8” on the road and D6” + 2
off the road. The wagon has five wounds and a 4+ save.
Deployment
The besiegers deploy first within their deployment zone which is 12” from the center of
the table and 12” from the side edges. At least one unit must be placed so that it is
blocking the road. The besieged player then deploys, no closer than 24” to the unit
blocking the road.

The Battlefield
The battle takes place with the castle and its surroundings, to include the trenches and
camps of the besieger. The besieger should set up the table as he will always set up his
table when the castle is present, in whatever configuration that he wishes (but should
remain constant throughout the siege). There should be no terrain within 24” of the
castle.
Forces
Both players choose a 1000 Point force. Any warmachines that the besieged player takes
must be placed atop a tower on the fortress. The besieged player should also have at least
one unit of mounted troops.
Deployment
The besieging player sets up first in his deployment zone, which is the opposing end of
the fortress at least 30” from the gate. He then places an objective marker representing
his supplies, war machines, a siege tower, etc at the edge of his deployment zone 30” from
the gate. This is the objective of the sallying force. This objective does not move during
the game.
