Can you give a lord/hero magic armour, magic helm and magic shield or just 1?

 

[Putch.]

Only one magic item from the section.

There is however, a rule for taking both a shield and magic armor that I recall.

It's possible it's that. I was just glancing through the rulebook, and I don't own it yet.

Putch is correct- you may only take one magical item from each list (i.e. "Magic Armour," "Magic Weapons," "Arcane Items," etc.) and magical shields, helms, and suits of armor all fall in the same list. You may take a mundane shield with a suit of magical armor; just make sure that you read the armor description carefully, as many of the descriptions specifically say something like "Grants a 2+ armor save that may not be improved by any other means."

Good luck!

 

[Asmodeun]

Isn't 1+ armour the max now anyway?

 

[Drax]

thats correct - there may be combos that make it better, but game wise it still counts as 1+ (albeit that a roll of 1 still fails)

 

[Vaz]

So, basically, S9+ Ignores all armour now? (Even with Lord of Khorne on Juggernaut with Enchanted Shield, with his -1?)Cba checking.

 

[Drax]

basically yes, or S8 and armour piercing.
