  • Back Cover : It mentions only Gotrek.
  • Notes :
    • Exactly the same presentation & rules are in White Dwarf #162, pages 5&6 (There, also mentions that this article is ‘by Bill King’). Difference : In Warhammer Armies: Dwarfs in the Magic Items section there is only Gotrek’s Axe (not Felix’s sword), but in White Dwarf #162 there are both Magic Item Cards : Gotrek’s Axe & Felix’s Sword (Blade Of Leaping Bronze).
    • In Warhammer Fantasy Battles(4th Edition) Felix had a magic sword. It was Blade Of Leaping Bronze and NOT Karagul. Blade Of Leaping Bronze was NOT a unique weapon for Felix (only). It was a weapon that any army list could have.
    • Warhammer Armies : Dwarfs and White Dwarf #162 were released in the same month / year.
    • 1st Gotrek & Felix set of rules for Warhammer Fantasy.
