What is the Doctor Who Miniatures Game?

What’s New in the 2nd Edition?

What’s Not in this Book?

This edition has over 50% more pages which havebeen used to squeeze in more rules, heroes, villainsand monsters. Most of the rules have stayed the

same, but new rules and changes are marked with the Seal of Rassilon (that’s it in the corner there!)

As the official DWMG website has lots of ‘newseries’ stuff available, I havedecided to concentrate thecore rules on the ‘classic’episodes, from 1963 to 1998.Rules for characters exclusiveto the recent series (likeRose, and the Slitheen)have been removed. Fear

not – point your webbrowser towards theDWMG site for morefrom both the classicand new series – thereare dozens of pages of PDFs available to suityour particular Doctor Who taste!

The DWMG Yahoo!site has exclusivemembers onlycontent, as wellas messages,files andpictures fromplayers. Check it out!

EXAMPLES

The rules are full of examplesto show you how thingsshould work.All examples arein dark blue like thisparagraph, and lots of themwill include photos as well.

I n t r

o d u c t i o n

Each player has a force of figures – usually one side isgood, and their forces might include the Doctor, hiscompanion(s), and other allied forces such as UNITsoldiers or security guards.The opposition are the badguys.Take your pick – Daleks, Cybermen, the Yeti, theMaster, Sea Devils and more – Doctor Who is stuffed full of monstrous opponents, many of which are available asmetal miniatures, which should be painted to add to theeffect before play. Each model has varying abilities as wellas strengths and weaknesses which are detailed later.

Each side will usually have one or more objectivesdepending on which scenario you are playing.This willdetermine which models get to play, and where they start.

Some scenarios are played using a scale of points, the sidewith the highest points at the end wins, others are full on‘one side wins or nothing’ affairs.There are severalscenarios at the back of this book, but feel free to comeup with more – there’s plenty of stories for inspiration!

A deadly game of hide and seek

To get started you will need the following:

These rulesA table or other flat surface, 4ft (120cm) squareItems of scenery (hills, trees etc. for Earth, the sky is

the limit for the terrain of other worlds!)Some Doctor Who miniatures6-sided dice (at least 3)

One or more tape measures marked in inches

If you are reading these rules then you have obviouslyfound them.The flat surface, dice and tape measure shouldalso present no obstacle to the average galactic traveller.Items of scenery can either be improvised, made,or

bought in such places as hobby or model railway shops.See page 63 for details of where to get suitable miniatures.

More useful items for use during play include:

Stat Cards for your modelsAn Initiative marker (I use a TARDIS model)Status markers to represent Hits, Luck points etc.Quick reference sheet for speed of play

The Initiative marker can be anything you have to hand – itgoes to the person who wins the initiative each turn as areminder when to start the next turn. My Status markerswere made from modelling clay, hardened and painted invarying colours.The Stat cards and event cards aredownloadable from the DWMG website (see pages 3 and63).The 2nd edition stat cards and a quick reference sheet

will be available in the Secondary Control Room supplement,due August 2008.

Each figure in the game is represented by one singlemodel, usually around 28mm (just over 1”) high. Each inchon the ground equals about 2 metres and each turn isbetween 1 and 5 minutes of real time, depending on whatexactly is going on.The ranges of weapons have beendramatically reduced from their ‘real life’ counterparts tomake for a better (and less lethal) playing experience.

Being terribly British, the game uses inches as its unit of measurement, although if you want to use centimetres orany other galactic standard, you are free to convert as you

see fit. Refreshments served during the game, should of course be tea.

You will have to decide whether players can measure therange from their UNIT soldiers to the invading alienmenace etc. before declaring any shooting (personally Idon’t, but I leave it up to you). If shots are declared butthe range is too great, then they will automatically miss.Thrown weapons like Grenades will land at theirmaximum distance before going off.

The six-sided dice rolls in the game are referred to as D6;1D6 means roll one die, 2D6 means roll 2 dice and addthe scores together. 1D6+2 means one die, adding 2 to the

result. A roll of 1D3 is half the result of 1D6, rounding anyfractions up.

Essential DWMG equipment: rules, miniatures, status markers, tape measure, dice, stat & event cards

Most models in the game are different – you would expecta Yeti to handle differently to a Thal, and the rules reflectthis. Each model has a profile – a set of statistics which letus see how fast, strong or intelligent they are, etc. Eachstat can go from 0 (not applicable) up to, in most cases 10,although higher values are possible in extreme cases.

The stats used in the game are:

Movement (Move)A model can move this distance in inches each time theytake a Move action, in good terrain. Models with a Move of 0 cannot move at all.There is no maximum Move value.

Defence (Def)The higher a model’s Defence the less likely they are tocome to harm. Factors include their native race’s naturaltoughness, armour and thick skin or hide. Models with aDef of 0 cannot be harmed by physical attacks.

HitsA model can only be wounded a number of times equal tothis number before they are removed from play.There is

theoretically no maximum value for this stat.

“Look, try and use your intelligence,man, even if you are a politician.”The Doctor, Day of the Daleks

Strength (Str)This is used in melee (physical combat) or when

performing other feats of brute force. Models with a Str of 0 are non corporeal (i.e. they don’t have a physical form).

Agility (Agi)A high Agility allows a model to avoid falls and otherperilous situations where more clumsy types would suffer.

Intelligence (Int)Possessed by the finest minds in the galaxy, Intelligence hasoften stood between civilisation and alien subjugation.Anaverage Int score for a human model would be 7, while amodel with 0 Intelligence is considered mindless.

MoraleHigh Morale indicates bravery or sheer recklessness.Anaverage Morale score is also 7. Models with a Moralescore of 0 never need to take Morale tests.

Special RulesAny special rules the model might use are listed here.Rules headed in blue are specific to a model, and are fullyexplained in this section, the rest are given in the SpecialAbilities section (see pages 17–18).

The Profile

8/20/2019 dwmg2


The game is played as a series of turns, continuing until theend of the game. Each turn is divided into 4 phases, which

are played through in order. Once the end phase has beencompleted, begin a new turn if neither side has achievedtheir victory conditions.

1. Determine Initiative2. First Player Actions3. Second Player Actions4. End Phase

InitiativeEach side rolls 1D6,with the highest roll determining thefirst player. On a tie, the last turn’s second player gets to

act first this turn.

ActivationsAt the start of their Action phase, each player should totalthe amount of models they currently have in play.They willget to activate half that number of models during theirturn (round up if required).The exact models activatedeach turn can be changed as their players see fit. Modelswho are captured, stunned or otherwise not at full libertydo not count as being in play for the purposes of determining the number of models. If the number of models a player controls changes during their turn (i.e.one falls off a cliff and dies, or one is freed and can thenactivate) that player still activates models based on thecount at the start of their Action phase.

LeadershipThe Leader special ability is one of the most importantabilities in the game. Models with this ability can activate a

number of models free when they themselves activate,according to the number in parenthesis. Models whichactivate free usually have to be within 6” of the modelwith the Leader ability prior to their activation.

ActionsModels are activated one at a time, using each of theiractions in turn. Most models get 2 actions per turnalthough this may vary (note that models don’t need touse all of their actions). Each model may only be activatedonce per turn.An action can be spent in the followingways:

Movement up to the model’s Move value

Shoot with a weaponAim prior to firing a weaponPerform a Special action

Models can take multiple Movement or Special actions inthe same turn, but cannot Shoot or Aim twice in one turn.

EXAMPLE: ACTIVATIONS

The Dalek player has 4 Daleks and 6 Dalek Troopers.They canactivate a total of 5 models. Now it’s the turn of Dortmund’sresistance fighters.The Daleks have just exterminated 2 of their models, leaving 13.The heroic player can activate 7 models.

EXAMPLE: ACTIONS

The Master needs to eliminate a civilian who is getting tooclose to one of his schemes. He fires his Tissue CompressionEliminator with his first action, but misses. He could move and enter melee combat, but that taking that level of risk isn’t his

style.With the Doctor not far away he elects to spend hissecond action moving away (to fight another day).

EXAMPLE: LEADERSHIP

The Brigadier is leading 3 UNIT soldiers against a force of Sontarans.With 4 models the UNIT player can activate 2 of them.All models are within 6” of the Brig.The player activatesthe Brigadier with his first activation, allowing the Brigadier toactivate 2 UNIT models for free as he has the Leader (2)ability.With the player’s second activation he activates the

remaining UNIT soldier.

Running is sometimes the best option

Going ProneModels may go prone and drop to the ground at any point

during their move for free, but movement on the groundis now at half pace – each 1” moved counts as 2”.A Moveaction can be spent to stand up, the model can then moveup to half their Move distance in the same action.

FallsIf a model takes a hit in melee while within 1” of a drop,or otherwise might lose their footing over a dangerousdrop, the model must make an immediate Agi test. If unsuccessful they will fall off the edge, and may suffer hitsfrom the effects of the fall.

A fall will cause a number of hits with a Str according tothe table below.

A model with a Move value can move this amount, ininches, each time they take a Move action. Models may run

if they spend both of their actions moving – they willnormally move twice as far.

FacingModels do not have a ‘facing’ for movement purposes andcan move all round, and pay no penalty for changingdirection etc. while moving.The final facing the modelassumes can prove important if they intend to shoot laterin the turn however.

Going Up & DownModels may ascend or descend one level of elevation

(2–4”) using stairs, elevators or ladders per movementaction.They cannot combine this with horizontalmovement.They may move up to all their movement anddrop a level (i.e. off a ledge or down a hatch) but this willcount as a fall and they can do nothing else this turn.

Rough Ground & ObstaclesIf a model’s movement takes it over rough ground, oracross a wall or ditch, then roll 1D6 to determine how farthe model moves that turn in inches. If the distance rolledis not enough to clear a linear obstacle the model musthalt before it. If the model’s Move is less than 6” count theroll as –1, and if it is more count it at +1. Roll the dice andapply the modifier for each Move action spent.

EXAMPLE: OBSTACLES

Sergeant Benton must get over a hedge to stop some giantmaggots from menacing Jo Grant.The other side of the hedge is3” away. Benton activates and takes a Move action. As his Move is 6, his player rolls 1D6, and gets a 4, so he manages to get over the hedge, and end his first action 4” away from wherehe started. His second action can be spent as his player wishes,although those maggots are now quite close!

If the model can make a successful Agi test they may countthe fall as being from 1 elevation level less than it actuallyis – falls reduced to 0 levels count as causing no damage,but the model will be unable to perform any actions untiltheir next activation.

Models who fall more than one level are automaticallyknocked to the ground, and must spend one action tostand up if they wish to move normally.

Models can only shoot if their target is in the front 180º

arc of their base.

Targeting ModelsThe forces of good live by codes of honour that other lessdiscerning creatures see as a sign of weakness. Heroicmodels will not shoot at other models engaged in melee(in base to base contact with one or more enemy

models), but monsters and other villainous types have nosuch restrictions. In this case randomly determine who isactually struck by the shot if a hit is scored.

Roll To HitRoll 1D6 – a hit will be scored if the result equals orexceeds the “Hit” value of the weapon being fired. In

addition there are modifiers to this die roll – see below.

EXAMPLE: SHOOTING

2 UNIT Soldiers face an advancing Dalek, 10” away, there is nocover; one is armed with a Rifle, the other an SMG.The firstsoldier takes an aimed rifle shot – he will get +1 to his roll for aiming.The second soldier fires a burst from his SMG – 3 shotsfor one Shooting action – but gets a –1 penalty to each roll as

10” is greater than half of the maximum range of the SMG.

EXAMPLE: TARGETING

2 UNIT soldiers are in melee – fighting for their lives againstan Ogron,when a Dalek closes in.The Monster player elects totake a shot at the group, and scores a hit. A further 1D6 isrolled to see who takes the hit; on a 1–2 it’s the first UNIT soldier, on a 3–4 the second, and on a 5–6 the Dalek has hitthe Ogron. 6! The Ogron must see if it takes a wound from the

Dalek’s blaster. Luckily there’s plenty more Ogrons where thatone came from.

Roll To WoundOn a successful hit, the target may be wounded – use theStr value of the weapon to determine the strength of theattack. See the section Taking a Hit, on page 10.

AimingA model which spends an action Aiming may not move,being focused on their target through the sights of theirweapon. If they spend another action in the same turn toshoot, that shot will gain a +1 bonus to hit, and does notsuffer any penalty if the target is at half range or greater.

Multiple ShotsMost models may only shoot once per turn – they cannottake 2 or more Shoot actions.There are some exceptionsto this rule, as will be noted in a model's profile. Burst fire,

from a SMG for example, counts as one shooting action,even though 3 hit rolls are made.

Melee occurs when 2 or more models from opposingsides get into base to base contact, and intend to strike

blows at each other with fists, weapons, tentacles etc.

Taking part in melee is 'free' and does not take anyactions. Once a model enters melee you can either resolvethe combat there and then or wait and conduct all meleecombats at the end of your Action Phase. By the end of this phase, all models in base to base contact will have hada chance to make a melee attack against their opponent(s).

Number of AttacksMost models get only a single attack – in this case chooseone target if you have multiple opponents, but some have

more, as indicated on their profile. Multiple attacks may bedivided up between any eligible targets.

Who Gets to Fight?Whenever you decide to resolve melee, note that allmodels, including those of the other side, get to fight.

Models in base contact with one or more enemy stillengage in melee, even if they have not activated this turn.These models in effect are activated for free, solely for thepurpose of fighting their foe – they can do nothing else inthis turn. Once a model has fought in melee, it can take nofurther actions in the same phase.

Order of CombatEach melee is resolved one at a time, in any order theplayer taking his actions decides. Models act in melee instrict order:

1. Models who moved into base contact with anopponent this turn.

2. Other models in order of Agility (Agi).Modelswith the same Agi score attack simultaneously.

As rolls are made first to hit, and then to wound in this

order, it is possible combatants may be removed ascasualties before they get a chance to strike back.

Roll to HitOne at a time, each participant rolls 1D6.A hit is scored if this roll equals or exceeds the ‘Hit’ value of their meleeattack. On a successful hit, the target may be wounded – use the Str value of the attack as listed on the modelsprofile. See the section Taking a Hit on page 10.

No WeaponsModels without specified melee weapons may still attack –

they will need to roll 5+ to cause a hit, and use their ownStr to see if it causes a wound.

EXAMPLE: ALL OR NOTHING ATTACK Mel is being menaced by a Yeti. Her player decides on an ‘All or Nothing’ attack. She gets to roll 2D6, and will hit on 5+. Sherolls 3 and 5, but her successful attack fails even to dent therobot. Now the Yeti gets to strike – being far more capable inmelee the extra D6 could spell serious trouble for Mel.Hopefully she hasn’t used up all her points of Luck .

Multiple AttackersA maximum of 4 models may attack a model on astandard 1” base, and models with larger bases may

be attacked by a maximum of 6 attackers. Models on largebases count as 2 normal models, so only 2 models on alarge base could attack a UNIT trooper, for example.

All Or NothingModels entering melee combat this turn, and whoare facing a foe whose Def is greater than their own

Str (or the Str of the weapon they intend to use) canmake an All Or Nothing attack.The model trades anefficient defence for a greater chance to cause theiropponent a wounding blow.They roll an extra D6 to see if their attack succeeds, and roll to wound with any dice thatget the required score.They cannot cause more woundsthan they could originally cause by a normal attack. In thisinstance any extra wounds are ignored.

The downside of an All Or Nothing attack is that youleave yourself wide open if you fail to take out youropponent. Models who strike back in the same meleephase also get an additional D6 to hit the original attacker.

Melee

Killing BlowSuccessful unarmed combat attacks (fists,VenusianAikido etc.) normally cause the affected model to be

Stunned , but if the attacker's Str is greater than the Def of his opponent then they can elect to inflict 1 Hit instead.

Taking a Hit

Models & HitsModels with more than 1 Hit can keep functioningnormally until they lose their last point. Once a modelsustains a number of wounds equal to their Hit rating theyare removed as a casualty.They are not necessarily dead,but may be incapacitated and count as being out of thegame.They are normally removed from the table at theend of the turn (see the Medic special ability, page 18).

Models who have taken hits but arestill in play should have either theirremaining Hits or the damage takenrecorded somehow.

Whenever a model is hit, either from afall or any kind of weapon, thepossibility of damage needs to bedetermined. Compare the attackingStrength with the model's Defence onthe Damage table to find the numberthat needs to be equalled or exceeded on 1D6 to causedamage.

An X on the table indicates that the Attack Strength isincapable of causing a hit to that Defence.

Multiple DamageNormally only 1 point of damage is caused but someweapons or circumstances may cause more. Roll on

the Damage table for each potential point of damage.

Damage markers

DefendingA model behind a wall or other solid barrier can beattacked in melee if another model can get to the

other side of the obstacle.The defender (behind the wall)

gets to add +1 Def, while the attacker suffers –1 to ‘hit’.After the first turn of melee both models get +1 Def and –1 hit modifiers – combat across an obstacle isn’t easy!

Rear AttackAn attacker striking a model from the rear gainsseveral important advantages. First they get a +1 ‘hit’

bonus, and the defender has to count their Def at –1.Thedefender is also unable to strike back at the model unlessit has an all round melee attack (most models can onlystrike at other models in their front 180º).After the firstturn of melee, surviving models who were attacked from

the rear may turn around to face their opponent(s) if theywish.

EXAMPLE: MULTIPLE DAMAGE

It is not uncommon for models in games to be faced withall sorts of unpleasant circumstances, which fighting cannot

resolve.Think of Jamie when he is tested in Waterfield’shouse in Evil of the Daleks, or the Doctor trying to solvethe Trilogic Game in The Celestial Toymaker .

Obviously some models might be better at physical trials,and some at mental ones, so these and other similarsituations are determined using Stat tests, which involverolling the dice and checking the result against the modelsmost relevant Statistic.

Strength & Agility TestsThese tests occur when a model is trying to do something

based on his physical attributes.Typical examples and thestats used to determine success include:

Breaking free from an enemy (Str)

Lifting a heavy object or trapdoor (Str)

Holding a door closed (Str)

Landing safely after a fall (Agi)Crossing a narrow ledge or beam (Agi)Dodging a falling boulder (Agi)

In such cases, roll 1D6.The test succeeds if the roll is lessthan or equal to the model’s statistic, otherwise it fails.Theoutcome of success or failure should be quite obvious,depending on the exact circumstances involved.

Special actions cover all the other things that happen inDoctor Who, such as operating machinery and gadgets, using

abilities and any other oddities.

Standard ActionsStandard actions will use up one of the 2 actions mostmodels have available. Standard actions include:

Operating a complex machine or gadget (i.e. usingthe Sonic Screwdriver to open a door)

Picking a lock or using the model’s Str to lift /move something

Attempting to Repair something

Relaying orders

Some special abilities will count as Standard Actions – see the description of the ability

A Cyberman kills another crewman on the Wheel

The Mona Lisa had become highly sought after

Standard or Free Action?Strength tests usually involve a few seconds orminutes of time, so if they are performed during a

model’s activation they will probably count as standardactions.Agility tests tend to be more reflex based, so canusually be considered free actions.

NEW!

Free ActionsSome actions are so simple they are considered Free, andthe model will still get its full complement of actions foruse in the turn. Free actions include:

Opening / closing / locking / unlocking a door(includes the TARDIS!)

Finding and operating a simple mechanism (a leveror button)

Picking up or dropping an item, or handing it to anadjacent model

Obviously these lists are not exhaustive – many othersituations can arise, and these will need to be catagorisedas either standard or free actions.

What about Inventing?Getting on with inventions is an incredibly time consumingprocess, so models engaged in Inventing do not get any

other actions at all.The process of Inventing is discussed inmuch more detail on pages 15–16.

Intelligence & Morale TestsThese are more mental tests, and are made in the sameway as Str and Agi tests, except 2D6 are rolled against therelevant characteristic. Intelligence tests are usually madeto understand a complex machine or while inventing, andMorale tests are covered on the right.

Standard or Free Action?Intelligence tests need the model to think thingsover for several seconds, so will usually count as a

standard action. Morale tests are snap judgements, and canbe considered free actions.

Opposed testsIn some cases only one roll is needed, e.g. pushing open astuck door – it either opens or it doesn’t, or balancing ona ledge – you stay on or fall off. Sometimes 2 or moremodels are trying to achieve the same but opposite effect – then an Opposed test must be made.

If 2 or more models are opposing each other in some way1D6 should be rolled for each.Add the highest die roll oneach side to the highest relevant characteristic on each

side.The side with the most models adds +1 for eachextra model they have over the other side.The side withthe highest result wins and on a tie nothing happens.

EXAMPLE: OPPOSED TESTS

Jamie is trying to stop a Cyberman coming through a hatch inthe floor, and is being aided by Victoria.This will be an opposed Str test. Jamie’s Str is higher than Victoria’s, so they both roll 1D6 and get 2 and 5. Jamie adds his Str of 3 to the best dieroll (5), +1 for Victoria’s help for a total of 9.The Cybermanrolls 6 and adds its Str of 5 for a total of 11.The hatch is flung

open, and the first of the Cybermen emerge from their tombs!With any luck the Doctor might have a plan B…

NEW!

MoraleYour models will not always obey your every commandduring a game and the rules reflect this using Morale. At

some point even the hardest veteran will run from somedread alien menace. Players should take the effects of morale into consideration before making any plans.

Making Morale TestsModels should make a Morale test if affected by anyof the conditions below. Note that a model only

ever needs to make one Morale test per turn – as soon asit passes its first Morale test it is considered to pass anyothers it may have been required to take in the same turn.

Morale tests should be taken as soon as they are required

– the entries below specify when a model should check for Morale. See left for how to make a Morale test.

FearIf a model moves to within 6” or attempts to entermelee with a model that is feared it must pass an

immediate Morale test.An enemy model that causes fear will force opposing models to pass a Morale test when thefear causing model gets to within 6” or attempts to entermelee. Models which cause fear are not affected by it.

InvulnerableA model within 6” of an enemy it is unable to harm mustmake an immediate Morale test. (A model is unable toharm another if the best result its own Str or the Str of its most effective weapon it carries is an 'X' result on theDamage table).

AloneMost models do not operate well far from help. If 3 ormore enemy models are within 6” and there are nofriendly models within 12” that model must make aMorale test.Take all such tests after all your activationshave been carried out.

Monster models are generally tougher – they are onlyrequired to make Morale tests for being alone if surrounded by 5 enemy models, not 3.

Wiped OutIf casualties in a single turn reduce a side to half itsstarting numbers or less then all remaining models

on that side must each make a Morale test, counting theirMorale at –1 at the end of each of your Action phases.Models who pass will continue to battle on. Uniquemodels (see page 24) which fail this test must make animmediate retreat move as described on the right, other

models are immediately removed from play. Sides reducedto 50% or less models will be forced to take this test inany turn they lose one or more models.

Doctor Who is full of weapons, although it is rare they arein the hands of the Doctor or his companions.The

weapons given on page 14 are common types that couldbe found on a thousand different planets, including Earth.Weapons used by specific alien races have their details aspart of their profiles, later in the rules.

Weapon TechnologyEach weapon has each been allocated an ‘era’ based ontheir technological level; models native to a lessertechnology level will need to pass an Int test to figure outhow to work it.Apply a –1 modifier for each step up intechnology the weapon is to the model trying to work itout.A failed roll results in the weapon discharging or

otherwise injuring someone – roll 1D6: On a 1–3 theholder of the weapon suffers a point of damage, on 4–6the next closest model is hit.The technology levels in thegame (and their Earth equivalents) are:

Primitive (Stone age / Medieval)

Antique (Renaissance / Napoleonic)

Modern (Victorian / 20th / early 21st Century)

Advanced (late 21st Century & beyond,Alien)

EXAMPLE: WEAPON TECHNOLOGY

The Aztecs have managed to get hold of a Disintegrator Gun(typical!) They are Primitive, and the Gun is Advanced, soapplying a –3 modifier to the Int test is going to mean a lot of mishaps before they learn to work it properly.

Blast TemplatesSome weapons use a Blast Template – their effectsspread out over a larger area than most other

weapons.You will need a 2” (5cm) and a 4” (10cm)diameter template. Simply cut out circles from card to therequired size.The template gets centred on the target of the shot (or where the shot scatters).All models whosebases are more than half under the template must roll for

damage, models whose bases are less than half under thetemplate are only affected on the 1D6 roll of 4+.

NEW!

WeaponsDecimatedIf your side has lost three quarters or more of itsstarting models, each model must make a Morale

test in exactly the same way as a Wiped Out result,counting their Morale at –2.Any models which fail this testare removed from the table immediately. Models making aDecimated Morale test are not required to make a Wiped Out test.

SuccessOn a successful Morale test the model has decided thingsare not as bad as they seem – they will keep acting asnormal, bravery having won through.

Failure and the Retreat MoveOn a failed Morale roll, the model will immediately moveits normal Move distance away from the closest enemymodel(s).The model may move less than this distance if itsmove would take it into or behind cover, like a wood, orbehind a wall. If a retreating model cannot get behindcover, and there are still enemy models within 6” aftertheir retreat move, the model is removed from the game.

EXAMPLE: RETREAT MOVE

UNIT Soldier Jones has failed his Morale test, for being Aloneagainst 3 Ice Warriors. He must move 6” away from thecreatures, but is allowed to stop behind a handy outcrop of rock, 4” behind him, while he tries to compose himself.

Leaving the BattlefieldModels which leave the battlefield having retreated afterfailing a Morale test will not return. Having escaped therigours of Alien attack (or been forced to be part of theAlien attack), they have discovered a preference for leavingthe area immediately.

Morale Tests in MeleeModels in melee still have to take Morale tests – if they fail

they break from combat, this counts as Breaking FromMelee, and is described on page 10.

Models with the Invent ability can create items during thegame to help them defeat their enemies. Using the Inventability takes a full activation and, in many cases, will takemore than one turn to accomplish.The model must haveaccess to either a laboratory or some other source of equipment (i.e. a power plant, engine room or similar) – these locations should be made clear before play.

First the player must decide who or what the device he istrying to invent will affect.A race or specific creature mustbe specified, e.g. Daleks (this will not affect Robomen orOgrons, for example).

If more than one model is involved in the inventionprocess, count the model with the highest Int as headingthe attempt.All other models with the Invent ability addbonuses to the Invention Breakthrough attempt, as

described next.

Invention BreakthroughWhen the model heading the invention attempt isactivated roll 3D6, the breakthrough is achieved and

the process can begin if the result is equal or less than thismodels Int score.You can count this score as being +2 foreach other model with the Invent ability within 3”, to amaximum of +6.

If the roll is unsuccessful, then it may be attempted onfuture turns. Note that all models involved in the invention

attempt count as being activated, and can take no otheractions during the turn they are inventing.

Eureka! The Doctor had just glued his fingers together

Invention ProgressFor each additional turn the inventing model

activates after successful breakthrough, roll 1D6.Each additional team member activating (a maximum of 3models with the Invent abilityy) entitles an additional D6 tobe rolled, or +1 to be added to the total. Count theInvention Progress score as being the total of the highestD6, plus any bonuses.When this cumulative total reaches15 or greater the invention will be ready at the start of the next turn. Invention Progress scores always start at 0.

EXAMPLE: INVENTION BREAKTHROUGH

The Doctor,Adric and Nyssa are trying to invent something tostop the Autons.The Doctor has the highest Int (10) so hecounts as heading the attempt. In the first turn all 3 modelsactivate, and the player rolls 3D6, getting 12.This is less than14 (the Doctor’s Int + 4 for 2 additional inventors) so next turnthe process can really get going.

EXAMPLE: INVENTION PROGRESS

Following on from the example above, all 3 models activate inthe following turn.The heroic player decides to use Nyssa to getan extra D6, and for Adric to contribute +1. 2D6 are rolled: 3and 6 are rolled.Adding +1 for Adric to the highest roll thetotal result this turn is 7. Invention rolls will have to be made infurther turns until the cumulative total reaches 15 or more.

Invention ResultOnce the invention total has been reached, roll on thetable below to see exactly what has been invented.

The effects of results 1, 2 and 3

can be had by allfriendly modelsimmediately(although the Achilles’ Heel resultmay need furthertabletop exertionsto be carried outbefore it fullytakes effect).

Results 4, 5 and 6 are physical creations, and are assumed

to be in the posession of the model who has justactivated.

WeaknessThis is a discoveryabout where theenemy’s defences

are lacking.Examples includethe Daleks’vulnerable eye stalks or the Cybermen weakness againstgold.

Roll 1D6 and consult the table above. Note this roll ismade once and will affect all rolls to damage this enemyfor the rest of the game.Whenever an attack of therelevant type is made against this enemy, the defendermust count their Def as being either 1 or 2 points lower.

WeaponThis is a device like any other ranged weapon, which canonly affect the specified enemy. Roll 3D6 for the weapon’srange in inches.The Weapon hits on a 4+ andautomatically inflicts 1 Hit on the target – do not roll towound. On a hit roll of a 1, the weapon has malfunctionedand a successful Repair roll or Int test at –2 is needed toget it working again.

Invention CountersSome games take place onground where scattered bits of

alien technology are hidden, allowingwhoever can get hold of them anadvantage in creating inventions. If youdecide to use this rule, then roll 1D3and double it after each player hasdeployed their models but beforethe game begins. Each player should then take turns placinga counter on the table. Counters should be placed at least12” from a players own models, and 12” away from othercounters.

Counters can be collected by getting a model adjacent tothem and expending an action.A single Invention Counter

may be used by each inventing team per turn, for one of the following results:

Add +1 to the Invention Breakthrough roll

Add +1 to the Invention Progress score

Reroll the Invention Result

ArtifactsArtifacts are powerful items usually related to thescenario being played.An artifact allows a once only

+2 bonus to either the Invention Breakthrough roll orInvention Progress score. In addition, an artifact gives the

side holding it 2 VP (see page 25), whether or not it hasbeen used to aid inventing.

Achilles’ HeelYou have discovered a weak point in the enemy’s strategy.This might be a transmitter, beacon, or other such device.If your side can reach it then you would gain a definite

advantage in this battle.

You determine a point on the table, more than 12” awayfrom one of your models.The opposing player must placea token representing the objective anywhere within 2D6”of this point. If one of your models can reach it the enemysuffer the following effects for the rest of the game:

All enemy models suffer –1 Morale

Enemy counts as Wiped Out (see Morale, page 11)

Jammer (2+ effect)The device either blocks the control signal of Controlled models, or otherwise interferes with the circuits ornervous systems of the enemy. Roll 3D6 immediately – this is the maximum range of the Jammer, in inches.The Jammer affects a single model on 2+, and does not suffer apenalty for long range. It can affect a target so long as it isin range – a clear line of sight is not needed.

Operating a Jammer takes a Shoot action, so a model usingone may move but not run (the Jammer does not need tobe aimed).The effects of the Jammer are resolved duringthe affected model’s next Action phase, before the playerchooses which models to activate. Controlled modelssuffer the effects as listed in their special rules, and allother affected models are moved 1D6” in a randomdirection.The models being jammed can take no furtheractions this turn.The opposing player counts as havingactivated half (round up) the jammed models.

Models will have to roll each turn the Jammer affectsthem, and random chance will dictate whether they fallunder its power or not.

Jammer (variable effect)This device is almost identical to the one described above,

except for its range and effectiveness. Roll 1D6 as soon asthe Variable Jammer has been invented.The number rolledwill have to be equalled or exceeded on 1D6 every timethe Jammer is used against a model. If a 1 is rolled, the Jammer automatically affects models in range.

Multiply the same roll by 5 to get the maximum range of the Variable Jammer in inches.The Jammer will potentiallyaffect all enemy models within this range.

Special abilities allow models to gain some special gameeffect.The following pages list abilities common to several

models in the game. Other, model specific abilities aregiven in that models description.

AlienThe model is not of this world.This can have certaineffects in the game e.g. Aliens cause fear in civilians.

AquaticThe model can breathe underwater, and can move throughwater with no penalty.

BlockerThe model has a 2” radius around it whichunfriendly models cannot pass through. See the

Blocking rules on page 22.

Body ArmourThe model wears protective armour which willnegate a hit of Str 3 or less on the 1D6 roll of 5+,

or a Str 4 hit on a 6. Hits of higher Str cannot be negated.

CompanionThis model has travelled in the TARDIS, and countsas a companion of the Doctor.

ControlledThe model is subject to some kind of control, eithermental, psychic or electronic. If this control can be broken(by removing the controller from play, or blocking thesignal with an invention, etc.) the model will suffer theeffects listed in its special rules.

FlyerThe model can take to the air.While airborne it canignore all terrain penalties and cannot be engaged in

melee combat. Shots to or from an airborne model suffera –1 penalty to hit, and the range is increased by 8” to

account for the model’s extra height.

Flyers fly using their normal Move rating, unless there is anumber in brackets after the ability, in which case use thisas their aerial movement rate.

Force Field (x+)The model can ignore any shooting against it if it can rollthis number or more on 1D6.

HoverThe model may traverse difficult ground or ascend

or descend levels of elevation at normal rate usingsome kind of anti-gravity device or similar gadget.

Hypnotise

This model can attempt to hypnotise any non-uniquemodel within 2” as a standard action.The victim must passan Int test to resist. Failure results in the model beingControlled by the player doing the hypnotising.

An Int check can be attempted at the end of any turn thecontrolled model is forced to attack his own side, or if thehypnotising model is more than 12” away or out of line of sight.The hypnosis will be broken if this check issuccessful. Models can only hypnotise one model at a time.

InfiltratorThe model is working for the opposition in secret – it may set up with the other side’s forces, and cannot

be targeted by them until their intentions become clearand the alarm is raised against them.

InventThe model may try to invent a useful device to help defeathis or her enemies. See page 15 for full details of inventingand inventions.

Invulnerable (x)The model reduces the Str of any attacks against it by thenumber indicated.Attacks with a modified Str of 0 or less

are ignored.

LargeThe model is so big any attacks (melee or shooting)against it get a +1 bonus to hit.The model should be atleast 3” tall or long to count as Large.

Leader (x)When this model is activated, a number of friendly modelsequal to the number in brackets may be activated this turnfor free.These models must be within 6” of the leader.Models may use a leader’s Morale value if they are on the

same side and within 6”. See page 6.

Luck (x)This model may reroll any single D6 once per turn thatdirectly affects them or a friendly model within 6”. Forexample this could be an attack or wound roll (either for

or against the character), or one die of an Int or Moraletest.The model may do this a number of times each gameequal to the number in brackets.

MechanoidThe model is either fully or partially robotic or cybernetic.Mechanoids may not run, and are immune to the effects of vacuum, gas and drowning.

MedicThe model can return a single lost wound to anadjacent model by using a standard action, and rolling

4+ on 1D6, or 5+ if the recipient is another race entirely(this ability cannot be used on Mechanoids). Modelsbrought back to 1 Hit from 0 Hits count as being Stunned.

Monster MagnetEnemies within 12” will have to roll 5+ on 1D6 to shootat or engage this model in melee. Instead they are oddlycompelled to capture him or her to use as bait in theirplans. If this model is held captive at the end of the game,they are worth 2 VP (see page 25).

PsychicPsychic models are ‘touched’ by a power that isunseen and unfathomable to most. Models with thisability get 1 point of Luck to spend each turn. It can

only be used on themselves, and if not spent in a turn it is

considered lost.The opposing player can force them toreroll one die of any Int test when the model is resistingbeing controlled or otherwise taken over.

RepairThe model may attempt to fix a broken component orother such part.Attempting a repair takes a standardaction, and a successful Int check. Further attempts may bemade on future turns unless a 12 has been rolled, whenthe part is deemed irreparable. Models with this ability arealso assumed to be able to use Sabotage.A succesfulRepair roll will cause a Mechanoid model to regain a single

lost Hit.

Resist VacuumThe model will suffer no ill effects due to gas or lack of oxygen. If this ability has a numerical rating (i.e. 3+) thenno effect will be suffered provided this number is equalled

or exceeded on 1D6 each turn.

SabotageThe model may put out of action any piece of equipment(usually vital to the other side’s cause) by expending astandard action and passing an Int test. On a roll of 2 theitem is so badly sabotaged it cannot be repaired.

ScreamerIf a Screamer model is activated and is within 6” of an enemy model roll 1D6. On the roll of 4+ any

single friendly model within 6” can immediately take one

action, regardless of whether it has already been activatedin this turn.

SlowThe model is so slow, clumsy or shambling it cannotrun.

SmallShooting at this model incurs a –1 hit penalty due to itssmall size.

SpacerThis ability can be given to models who have spent alot of time in space. Complex equipment such as

Spacecraft and Spacesuits cannot be operated without thisability. It will also give a +1 bonus to any rolls related tooperating such equipment while in space.

TARDISThe model has a TARDIS, which may or may not beon the tabletop depending on the scenario. See the

entry for The Doctor, on page 26.

Time LordIn some scenarios being a Time Lord may be a bonus (or apenalty!) Time Lords count their Technology level as

Advanced (see page 13).

Vehicle Hit and Run AttacksWhile a vehicle moves any models on foot directly in itspath will be subject to a Hit and Run attack. Make an Agitest for each model in turn. Success indicates the model

has dodged the moving vehicle – place it to one side of thevehicles path.

Failure indicates the vehicle hasrammed the model, which willtake a single hit at a Strengthequal to the vehicles Defence.

In this instance the vehicle isundamaged.

V e h i c l e s

Vehicles may be used to transport models quickly acrossthe battlefield, can carry weapons, and offer a degree of

protection to those inside.The Doctor in his thirdincarnation was particularly fond of cars, and UNIT troopsoften use jeeps and helicopters to get troops andequipment to assorted alien menaces, or to get theDoctor and his companions out of trouble.

MovementVehicles require one model to be allocated as its driver (flying vehicles like helicopters have a pilot).When thatmodel is activated, the vehicle gets 2 Move actions, andcan move up to the vehicle’s Speed in inches with eachaction.The driver can do nothing else in that turn, but all

passengers carried by the vehicle are moved with thevehicle ‘free’ when it moves.

Vehicles cannot cross linear obstacles like walls, enter intobuildings or terrain prohibited by their type (see thevehicle move table).

If a vehicle spends its entire action on a road it gains a freeRoad Bonus which can be spent to move the vehiclefurther along the road after the rest of its movement.

Vehicles must end each action in a position anywhere inthe front 180º of its starting position (i.e. not behindwhere it started), and can face any direction the playerwants. See the diagram on the right.

RamsIf a moving vehicle strikes another vehicle, building orobstacle each causes the other an amount of damage equalto its current Hits.This damage can be halved if the

moving vehicle has only used a single Move action.The Strof these hits will be equal to half the distance the vehiclehas moved this turn (to a maximum Str of 8).Walls andsimilar obstacles cause 1D6 hits if struck.

Entering/Exiting VehiclesGetting into or out of a vehicle requires a Move action – the model can combine getting in or out of the vehiclewith up to half its normal movement.The model may takeits normal amount of actions less any the vehicle hasalready expended this turn.

The maximum number of models which can enter or exita vehicle in one turn is equal to the vehicle’s Capacity.Models cannot exit one vehicle and enter another in thesame turn.

Shooting from VehiclesModels shooting while riding in a vehicle suffer a –1penalty to hit in addition to any other modifiers, unless theweapon is specially mounted onto the vehicle.

Damage to VehiclesEvery time a vehicle takes damage, roll1D6 to determine if thehit affects an occupant orthe vehicle itself. Blastweapons affect all modelsunderneath the template.

Out of Control VehiclesVehicles will go Out of Control if their driver is removedfrom the game, is engaged in melee combat, or if any otherunforseen things occur.Vehicles which are out of controlat the start of their players Action phase activateimmediately for free. Roll 1D6 twice for each out of control vehicle – once to determine steering and once to

determine speed – and consult the chart below.

If the vehicle isstill movingafter its firstMove action,then roll 1D6twice on thetable again.Luck points can

be expended to affect these rolls by models nominally atthe wheel of out of control vehicles.Vehicles which leave

the table are considered to be out of the game, as aretheir occupants.

Aerial Vehicle MovementAt the end of each Move action each aerial vehicle musteither be on the ground or airborne. Only if it is on theground can models embark or disembark or engage it or

its crew in melee combat.When it activates it can combinemovement with taking off or landing but not both in thesame action. Once airborne, terrain does not affect aerialvehicles.When shooting from or at aerial targets countthe range as being 8” more than the horizontal distance,to allow for the height of the vehicle.

Vehicles which lose their last Hit while airborne must rollonce on the Out of Control table to determine wherethey strike the ground.All occupants, models, buildings andvehicles within 4” take 1D6 Str 6 hits.

Vehicle StatisticsA vehicle has statistics like any other model, althoughsome of these are unique to vehicles:

TypeA vehicle’s Type determines what terrain the vehicle maycross – see the Vehicle and Terrain table on page 19.

CapacityThe maximum number of models the vehicle may carry.Only models on a normal sized base may use vehicles.

DefenceThis is exactly the same as a model’s Defence value.

ArmourVehicles offer more protection than simply being on foot.For each hit suffered, the vehicle or occupant may ignorethat hit on a 1D6 roll of this number or more.

HitsThis is exactly the same as a model’s Hits value. Occupantsof destroyed ground vehicles take an automatic Str 4 hit.

SpeedThis is the vehicle’s ground speed, and is the same as amodel’s Move value.

Certain models are particularly good at stopping others,for example a Security Guard who will on no account letthe Doctor into the International Electromatics buildingwithout a signed pass from Tobias Vaughn. Indeed, if theirname isn’t on the list there’s no way they’re going to spoilthis invasion party...

These models have the Blocker special ability (see page 17) – they may not be overtly hostile, but it’s certainly morethan their job is worth to let anyone through.

Blocking ZoneThese models have a 2” Blocking Zone around them (useyour 4” Blast template) which moves with them – modelsentering this area can move into base contact with theblocking model, but cannot move past them.The onlypossible move they may make is back the way they came.

Losing the Blocking ZoneModels lose their blocking zone if they become stunned,controlled, go prone, or if they become subject to anyother special state not otherwise covered here. Modelswho have fought in melee or fired a weapon are alsoconsidered to have lost their blocking zone, being far toobusy with whatever else they are doing.

Buildings are useful in the DWMG – they can containlaboratories full of stuff to invent with, they can providetransport to and from Omega’s Black Hole realm of anti-matter and if push comes to shove you can hide behindthem when the Sontarans invade.

Building Sizes & SectionsBuildings can come in all shapes and sizes, but for gamingpurposes they should be considered as sections, each up to4–6” square. Large buildings can be built from multiple

sections, as can long stretches of wall. Each section hasbetween 2 and 6 Hits depending on its sturdiness.

“Had a hard day in the catacombs,have we?”The Doctor, The Masque of Mandragora

Attacking BuildingsBuildings are automatically struck in melee combat, and bymodels using their ranged weapons at half the weapon’smaximum range or less. Over half range the shot still getsa +2 bonus to hit as buildings are usually very large (unlessthey’re inside a Miniscope!)

Damaging BuildingsOnly hits of Str 6 or more can damage buildings. Simplyfigure out the damage caused and reduce the Hits of thesection by that amount. Do not use the Damage table.Buildings are destroyed when they are reduced to 0 Hits,and will collapse.All models inside will take a Str 6 hit, andmodels within 2” will take a Str 4 hit if they fail an Agi test.

Doors & WindowsUp to 4 models can pass through a door in a single turn,but only 1 can get through a window. 2 models can shootthrough either a door or window if they are immediatelyadjacent to it and they themselves will get a –1 penalty tobe fired upon. Doors and windows should always bemodelled on buildings.

Running In BuildingsBuildings are usually cluttered with furniture, deadbodies and hiding aliens, so the interiors of buildings

count as obstacles (see page 7) if models run whileinside them.

Fire is nasty and no-one likes being onfire or being too close to it.To

represent fires, you will need a numberof Fire markers, either modelled frombits of cotton wool, or a counter, orsomething. Certain weapons or othereffects will cause fire damage which isrepresented by placing a Fire markeron the target. Note that the target can be anythingflammable, like a forest or a building, as well as a model.

Fire DamageIn the end phase of each turn, anyfires can potentially cause damage to

models within 1” per Fire marker of thefire’s centre.The chart below indicates thenumber of hits and relevant Str of firedamage according to the amount of firemarkers; numbers after the slash marked‘*’ are the amount of hits Buildings takefrom fires.

Entering base to base contact with another model doesnot have to result in a fight - Doctor Who is full of

examples of characters being captured at gunpoint /tentacle point by their foes.When a model enters basecontact with an enemy they have the option of attackingas described earlier, but they can also attempt to capturetheir opponent using their sheer strength, or a weaponthey might possess. First of all the opposing model mustdecide if they are going to resist or not.

Not ResistingIf the opposing modeldoes not resist thenthey are considered

Captured and aremoved when theircaptor moves. Bothmodels must maintainbase to base contact,and the capturingmodel cannot run.Thecaptured model canonly activate if theyintend to attempt tobreak free.

EXAMPLE: NOT RESISTING

Turlough is facing a Zygon which intends to capture him. Notbeing the bravest of chaps he decides not to resist.When the Zygon next activates,Turlough will be moved with it.

Resisting Capture by StrengthIf the opponent resists, then the captor(s) must succeed atan opposed Str test. If this succeeds then they will capturetheir opponent as above.

Resisting Capture by WeaponResistance against a model with a weapon results in meleecombat as described on page 9. If the capturing modelsurvives and scores a hit then the hit can be ignored andtheir opponent is now considered to be at knife / gunpointand is captured.

Breaking FreeTo break free in a later turn, the captive mustactivate and succeed at an opposed Str test against

their captors.Their captor can choose to make a singleimmediate melee or ranged weapon attack at 4+ to hit. If the captive escapes this point blank attack, they can then

attack back or move up to half their movementimmediately. Breaking free takes one action.

Games are always more interesting when they don’t simplyinvolve wiping out the other side. Even the Daleks, asxenophobic and obsessed with exterminating everything insight as they are, usually had some goal in mind. Somescenario ideas include:

Take & Hold / DefendOne side must reach a designated point and defendtheir new position.The other side must prevent this.

Obtain Item / Capture / RescueAn object or person is vitally important to one side. Ifit or they can be taken off a friendly table edge futurebattles will be made easier.

Holding ActionOne side must hold out against impossible odds untilreinforcements arrive, or simply fight to the last manand take as many enemy out as possible.

Ambush / EscapeOne side has been surprised but must escape quickly

before more attackers arrive.

It’s always fun to give each side different objectives, orsecret objectives so that the other doesn’t know what’sgoing on – the fog of war and all that! And as noted above,throw in some complications like difficult conditions,carnivorous plants, something big and invisible, andscreaming scientists and monsters. Have the heroescaptured, or required to find some vital equipment.

Feel free to add / remove the Doctor, the Master or anyother of the model types listed in these rules.Add a third

party, or rules for special conditions, like weather, night,reversing the polarity of the neutron flow, etc.

Models can be categorised as belonging to one of twofactions: heroes or monsters. Generally the game will have

two sides each composed of models of opposing factions.Games can also have more sides, for example 2 rival Dalek factions and a UNIT force.The side with heroic modelscannot include any monsters and vice versa, althoughcertain models (e.g. the Alien Lackey) are allowed to setup with the other side until their evil agenda is discovered.

Unique ModelsMost models represent typical troops of one side oranother, and multiples of these models can be chosen, forexample 12 Daleks or 8 Ice Warriors. Some named modelsare Unique – only one model can be chosen because there

is only one such individual in the DW universe. Examplesinclude the Doctor himself, Davros and the Brigadier.Unique models have a symbol next to their name.

The Two (or more) DoctorsOn exceptional occasions the Doctor has been joined byone or more of his previous incarnations. In the game werecommend this is only used sparingly, and with theconsent of all players.Use of multiple Doctors is howeverone great way to get a participation game going.

Points ValuesPoints values are not given for models in the DWMG .This has been a subject of much debate, but my final

word is that I think that balancing games with a fixedpoints limit on models limits creativity and encouragestournament style play. Most scenarios for the game involvemismatched forces – true to the episodes themselves – with victory usually obtainable by achieving specificconditions in each game. Note that as is this Doctor Who,almost any possible combination of models maytheoretically be used in games, so don’t feel restricted – the game is at its best when playing narrative style gamesrather than set piece battles.

Altering ProfilesThe profiles given on pages 26–56 have been carefullyworked out to ensure each model plays as closely aspossible in the game to what’s seen on screen. However,feel free to alter profiles to suit – Toberman from Tomb of the Cybermen could be a Security Guard with +1 Str or allyour Zygon scientists gain +1 Int and the Invent ability.

Another way to alter profiles is to give models new specialabilities including Leader or Luck, although you can becreative with who gets what. Most of these alterations willcreate unique models, so give them a name, and be

prepared to cry as they get gobbled up by monsters.

Models can be affected by conditions which carryover from turn to turn – Status Effects.The most

common status effect is Stunned – but there areothers and the list will be added to as required.

If a model is affected by any status effect, then in the endphase of each turn their player must roll 1D6 for each Hitthat model has remaining.The status effect will beremoved if any die roll comes up 6, otherwise the effectwill continue until the next turn. Note you can’t roll toremove a status effect in the same turn you were affectedby it.Two status effects are given below.

ConfusedConfused models are unable to use their mental facultieseffectively and often forget who they are or what they aresupposed to be doing.

A confused model may not run, and must roll 1D6 whenthey intend to move. On a roll of 1–2 they are moved bythe other player, on 3–4 they move 1D6” in a randomdirection, and on a 5–6 they can move as normal.

Confused models suffer a –2 penalty to all shooting andmelee attacks, and must count their Def at –1, being fartoo befuddled to defend themselves properly.They alsocount their Int as half normal while confused (round up).

StunnedStunned models are basically unconscious or otherwisenot capable of any meaningful activity.As soon as they arestunned the model will fall prone, and may not beactivated. Stunned models attacked in melee are hit on aroll of 2+, and count their Def at –1.

Another single model may drag or carry the stunnedmodel across the table at half their Move rate, and 2 ormodels may drag or carry the stunned model betweenthem at their normal Movement rate. If the stunned model

has more than 1 Hit and is larger than human sized,increase the number of models required to move them asabove by +1 model per additional Hit.

Models may be stunned by certain weapon effects as givenin the weapon’s description, or by blunt melee weaponslike clubs (or in unarmed combat).The attacker must statebefore the attack is made that the attack will try and stunthe defendant.A successful hit does no damage but willstun the model as described in the previous paragraph. Mechanoids can only be stunned using a weapon whichspecifically states ‘Stun’ as part of its effects – simply

attacking one with your fists isn’t good enough! The Doctor, Ian and Vicki take a Roman holiday

Victory Points (VPs) are used to determine who has wonthe game in certain scenarios. At the end of the game

each side should total up the VPs they have gained to seewho has won.Victory Points are awarded in the followingcircumstances:

Enemy Unique Models Eliminated + 1 VP per HitFor each Unique enemy model eliminated,

gain VP equal to that models initial Hits

Table Quarter Controlled + 1 VPYou have at least 1 model on that quarter, and

enemy has none

Enemy Wiped Out + 2 VPOpponents force reduced to 50% models or less

Scenario Objective Achieved + variesSome scenarios will offer VP if certain conditionsare met

Model-Specific VP + variesSome models have VP rules which may apply

Levels of VictoryAs any winning commander will tell you, there is adifference between defeating the enemy at massive cost,and causing a rout with almost nocasualties toyour own side.Work out thedifference in VPand consult thetable on theright todetermine thelevel of victoryachieved.

Models get +1 to lose this status effect.

Information:The Doctor is a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey,currently travelling through time and space in his TARDIS,which is stuck in the form of an Earth Police box. Usuallyaccompanied by a number of companions, he is oftendrawn into dangerous and challenging situations. He hassaved the Earth and the Galaxy from destruction orsubjugation on more than one occasion.

The Doctor has the ability to regenerate his physical formwhen severely injured, and has done so nine times. Hisinitial 8 different incarnations are treated the same forgame purposes.

Special Rules:Invent, Leader (2), Luck (6), Repair, Resist Vacuum (3+),Spacer,TARDIS,Time LordIf the Doctor uses his Leader ability on any model other thanhis companion(s), then it only counts as Leader (1).Sonic Screwdriver: The Doctor may use a special action touse his Sonic Screwdriver to open any door or lock within2” on a 1D6 roll of 4+.Surprise/Confuse: The Doctor may take an immediate freeactivation, once per game.This can be done at any point inthe turn, even if the Doctor has activated this turn already.

The TARDISThe TARDIS may begin games on the table if the Doctor isalso present. It may not move except to dematerialise (orrematerialise), and is indestructable.Any number of modelsmay enter the TARDIS; a maximum of 4 models may enteror exit in one turn. Only the Doctor or his companionshave keys to the TARDIS. Fellow Time Lords such as theMaster and the Monk each have a TARDIS of their own.

The TARDIS can dematerialise if a Time Lord activateswhile at the controls. It can return at the start of any of that controlling models future turns if a 5+ can be rolled

on 1D6.The TARDIS will rematerialise at a random pointon the table, its controller counted as having activated.

CompanionsThe Doctor may begin the game with up to 3 Companionmodels who travel with him in the TARDIS. Unlessotherwise specified they begin the game within 6” of theDoctor, but can move freely once the game begins.

Each companion must either be a named model belongingto one of the generic types on the next page, or be aspecific companion, i.e. K9.

Although multiple generic companion types can be chosen(i.e. you can have 2 Scientists – perhaps representing

Nyssa and Adric), each companion is considered to be aunique model.

While viewed as both meddling gods and dusty senators,the achievements of the Gallifreyans cannot be denied.An

ancient race who mastered time travel when the universewas still young, these ‘Time Lords’ were a technologicallyadvanced race of near immortals whose legend andinfluence touched the farthest corners of the universe.

However, such power also attracted enemies such as theGreat Vampires, the Fendahl, the Sontarans, the Racnossand the Daleks, with whom the Time Lords finally mettheir match in the cataclysmic Last Great Time War.

While bound by a strict law of non-interference, someGallifreyans such as the Doctor, the Master, the Rani and

the Meddling Monk have sought adventures beyond theCapitol.

Each of the following Time Lord artifacts could be thesubject of a game or series of games involving the Doctor,the Time Lords or any of his enemies. Future releases willdetail some of these items in more detail.

The Coronet of Rassilon allows the wearer to

Control other beings by force of will.The Crown and the Key of Rassilon both allowaccess to the Matrix, the virtual depository of allTime Lord knowledge.The Great Key of Rassilon is part of the Demat

Gun, a powerful weapon of mass destruction.

The Harp of Rassilon unlocks a secret chamber in

the chambers of the Gallifreyan High Council.

The Rod of Rassilon allows the user to drain and

A whole host of other types of model can make anappearance during games. Some are useful, (Scientists),

some are a hindrance, (Civilians), and some can be both(Administrators, Security Guards or Primitive Warriors).

These other models can appear in play on either side, orcan be randomly controlled using the humble D6.TimeScoops can also be utilised if you need an extra player totake control of all these models – see The Five Doctors.

Most games are considerably improved by the liberaladdition of several of these models – perhaps the Dalekshave captured a cache of Scientists, or some vital artifact isin the hands of hostile Primitive Warriors. It’s a big

New Status Effect: Varga Poison

If an affected model rolls a 6 in any end phase they will

be controlled by the monster player next turn. 3 suchrolls and the model will turn into a new Varga Plant.

Making Varga Plants

Images of Varga Plants in Doctor Who havemostly been lost in the mists of time – this does have one advantage in that youcan make them look like nearly anything.Here’s how I made mine:

Ingredients: Miniature bases, cocktail sticks,

foam sponge, wool, white glue, paint.

Method: Cut a cocktail stick shorter thana model and stick onto the centre of abase. Cut chips from the sponge about10-15 mm across and about 5-10mmthick and push onto the cocktail stick.Glue short sections of cocktail stick horizontally round the plant to resemblespines.Add bits of wool to the top.

Finish: I painted my plants green with red

spines, and based them to match myother models.

Information:The Thals encountered by the first Doctor on Skaro arethe descendants of the people who went to war with theKaleds, which ruined the surface of the planet.They are

A tenth planet – identical to Earth – has appeared inthe Solar System and is draining all power fromthe world.This process will be catastrophic if it cannot be stopped. Meanwhile, atSnowcap base at the SouthPole, the Doctor and basecommander General Cutler discover theinhabitants of the

tenth planet areattempting entry – Cybermen, the tenthplanet being Mondas, their homeworld.

ForcesHeroes and Allies: The Doctor, Ben and Polly.General Cutler (use the profile for the Brigadier), DrBarclay (Scientist), 12 Base Soldiers, including 2 Sergeants(use UNIT profiles). Monsters and Villains: 24 CyberMondasian Cybermen – of which only 12 will ever be on the table at any one time.

The TableDivide the table into 2 24x48” sections. One representsthe surface above the base, and should have scatteredsnow mounds and perhaps a frozen lake (counts as difficultground).The second is the underground base itself. Itshould have 6–8 rooms with various corridors connectingthem. One room should be allocated as the control room,another the lab (where inventions can be worked on).Nominate one point in the control room as the Z-bomblaunch station (see below).A hatch connects the two areasof the table (see map key areas 2 and 3).

Set Up6 Base Soldiers set up in the Snowcap Base setup area onthe surface, the remaining heroic models can beginanywhere inside the base. 12 Cybermen begin in theirsetup area on the surface.

InitiativeDetermine initiative as normal for all turns

Special RulesThe Antarctic surface is undergoing a ferocious blizzard.At

the start of each turn roll 3D6 – no model may shootfurther than this distance this turn.

If the heroicforces are wiped out,

then General Cutler willmove directly to the control

room and activate the Z-bomb, thebase’s ultimate deterrent weapon. From

this point, the game will end within 8 turns.TheZ-bomb launch mechanism can be disabled using theRepair ability – this can be achieved automatically if aCyberman gets adjacent to it.

The Cybermen have landed a considerable assault force – if a Cyberman is killed, you can place another Cybermanmodel on the table if there are sufficient reserves.Thisnew model should be at least 12” farther behind themodel just removed from play. Replacement modelscannot be placed directly inside Snowcap base – they mayinstead be positioned at the entrance hatch (area 3).

Ending the GameThe heroic player wins if he can defeat the Cybermen.TheCybermen player wins if he can get to the Z-bomb launchstation and disable it – the Cybermen will then use it todestroy the Earth. If the Z-bomb is launched, the gameends in a draw – Mondas will be destroyed but the Earthwill be severely irradiated. No other Victory Point rulesare used in this scenario.

8/20/2019 dwmg2


The Great Intelligence has invaded the London Tubenetwork.The British Army, under the command of

Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart, have beenmobilised to stop the Intelligence’spawns – the fearsome Yeti!

The Yeti have a new weapon, a deadly web-like substancewhich is spreading furiously through theunderground network.Thisweb of fear has cut Lethbridge-Stewart and his allies off from their

main force and he must now battle hisway past the Yeti to escape to freedom…

ForcesHeroes and Allies: The Doctor and one companion. ColonelLethbridge-Stewart (use the Brigadier’s stats) with 6soldiers (use UNIT stats) and Professor Travers (Scientist). Monsters and Villains: 4 Yeti.

The TableThe 48x48” table represents the twisting tunnels andservice passageways of the London Underground tubetunnels.These tunnels should be 4” wide with a minimumof 3 exits on the heroic table edge and 4 on the monsteredge.A central 8” wide tunnel runs across the board – themain tube tunnel, with a train if you wish.

There should be 2 maintenance areas on the heroicplayers side of the table which contain suitable equipmentto invent with.These areas are behind doors with Def 3and 2 Hits.

Set UpThe heroic models set up in the tunnels within 4” of theirtable edge – models need not set up in the same tunnel.

The Yeti begin within 6” of the monster table edge, amaximum of 1 Yeti in each tunnel.The Yeti player shouldplace 2 Yeti Control Spheres on the table, no closer than24” to each other.

InitiativeDetermine initiative as normal for all turns

Special RulesThe Yeti are armed with Web Guns which can create 1x4”blockages in the 4” wide side tunnels.This web stays onthe table unless a Yeti model moves through it (they are

immune to its effects).The Great Intelligence cannot fullycut off access in this part of the London Underground, so

at least one clearroute must be left

between the heroic andmonster sides of the table at all

times.

Unknown to the heroic forces, the hypnoticeffect of the Great Intelligence has already been at work within their ranks.At any point during any monster turn,the Yeti player may take control of one of the armysoldiers (not the Colonel).This model now counts asControlled unless the hypnotic influence can be broken.

End of the GameThe heroic forces are trying to escape this section of thetunnels.The game ends when all heroic models get off theYeti table edge, or are removed from play. If all the Yeti aredefeated the game will also end.

The Nestene Intelligence has landed on Earth and hascreated a spearhead of plastic Autons with

which to begin its invasion of the planet.

The Intelligence is housed inplastic spheres whichhave fallen likemeteorites. One of them has beentracked by both theNestene and theDoctor to the vicinity of aremote farmhouse.As the small squad of UNIT troopers search the

farm buildings the Autons are advancing…

ForcesHeroes and Allies: The Doctor and one companion, theBrigadier and 8 UNIT soldiers.The UNIT soldiers can bearmed with any combination of Rifles and SMGs. Monsters and Villains: 6 Autons.

The TableThe 48x48” table should have a farm with at least 3buildings in the centre 12”.The remainder of the tableshould be covered in patches of woods and undergrowth.

Set UpThe heroic models set up in the farm, behind the walls.The Autons each set up within 6” of any table edge.

InitiativeDetermine initiative as normal for all turns.

Special RulesBefore play players should take turns placing 6 objectivemarkers, no closer than 8” to any model or any tableedge. One of these markers represents the NesteneEnergy Unit, the others are false signals and can be

ignored. Neither player should know the real location of the Energy Unit. A marker is revealed when a modelreaches its location.

One of the farm outbuildings – determine which beforethe game starts – is full of junk which can be utilised bythe Doctor to create inventions.

End of the GameThe game ends when one side gets the Energy Unit off thetable, or one side is destroyed or retreats off the table.

Victory PointsVictory Points arescored according to the

rules on page 25; in addition theside ending the game with the

Nestene Energy Unit gains +4 VP.

Alternate ScenarioPoacher Sam Seeley has decided to remove the NesteneEnergy Unit from his farm as the UNIT soldiers have beenround asking him too many questions.The Nestene Intelligencehas picked up the signal from the Energy Unit and hasdispatched several Autons to collect it.

The table set up is the same as the main scenario.

Sam counts as a Civilian armed with a Shotgun and carriesthe Nestene Energy Unit. He begins within the farm walls.4 Autons each begin within 6” of any table edge.

If Sam expends only a single move action and does notmove faster than 3” in a single turn he manages to keepthe Energy Unit safely covered and will remain undetectedby the Autons unless he is in direct line of sight to at leastone of them.

If he expends a single move action but moves faster than3” he will be detected on the 1D6 roll of 4+. He isautomatically detected if he runs, fires his shotgun or getsinto line of sight to an Auton.Check for detection everyturn.

If the Autons have not detected Sam then roll 1D6 whenone is activated: On the roll of 1–3 the Auton must move1D6” in a random direction. On 4+ it can move normally.

The heroic player wins if he can get the Energy Unit off

any table edge.The Autons win if they retrieve the EnergyUnit (probably by killing Sam).

Sontaran Field Major Styre of the G3 Military Assessment Survey has lured a human GalSec

vessel to Earth.To determine the ability of the human race to resist invasion,Styre is conducting barbaric experiments on the crashsurvivors.

The Doctor, Sarahand Harry havearrived by Transmatbeam from the NervaBeacon (see The Ark inSpace ).They must free the GalSec

crew and if possible defeat Styre, whileescaping the clutches of the Sontaran’s patrolling Servitor Robot.

ForcesHeroes and Allies: The Doctor and 2 companions. 4 GalSecprisoners who do not count as being in play until they arerescued. Each prisoner counts as an unarmed SecurityGuard with the Slow ability due to their extremely weak physical condition. Monsters and Villains: 1 Sontaran (use the Field Agentstatistics) and a Servitor Robot armed only with CaptureCables – which can capture a maximum of 4 models atonce.

The TableThe 48x48” table should be covered in rocky and hillyoutcrops.A 6” circle of Transmat spheres sits in the centreof the table, and Styre’s spherical Sontaran spaceship iswithin 4” of one corner.There should be no other man-made structures on the table.

Set UpThe Doctor and companions set up within 6” of thecorner opposite the Sontaran spaceship.The GalSec

prisoners set up at the middle of each table edge. Styresets up within 4” of his spaceship, an the Robot beginswithin 4” of the Transmat circle.

InitiativeDetermine initiative as normal for all turns.

Special RulesThe ground underfoot is rough and dangerous – if anymodel runs then roll 1D6 before they take their secondmovement action. On the roll of 1 the model has fallen orotherwise come to harm.They will suffer a Str 2 hit, or

the player can elect to have the model stunned instead.

At the end of each Sontaran turn,

roll 1D6. On the roll of 4+the Sontaran player must reduce

the Str and Dex of one single GalSecprisoner by –1. Models reduced to 0 Str or

Dex are removed as casualties – see the VictoryPoints rules below.

Models may spend a standard action to search the groundfor a makeshift weapon. On the 1D6 roll of 4+ they canpick up either a stout stick (+1 Str in melee for the firstturn) or a rock (Str 3 thrown weapon).

Heroic models can exit the table only by entering theTransmat circle – the Doctor has repaired it prior to thestart of the game.

Prisoners can be rescued by getting any heroic model inbase contact.A successful Str test or Repair or Sabotageroll is needed to break the bonds holding the GalSeccrewmembers prisoner.

End of the GameThe game ends when all the heroic models are off the

table, captured or killed, or if Styre is killed.

Victory PointsThe Victory Point rules on page 25 are not used in thisscenario. Both sides score points as follows:

Heroic Monster

GalSec model off the table +1 VP

GalSec model killed while captured +1 VP

Styre killed +2 VP

Styre survives at end of game +2 VP

If Styre is killed the heroic player scores VP for half theremaining captured GalSec crewmembers.

first turn.

Special RulesAt the beginning of the Dalek turn roll 1D6.

1D3 Dalek Troopers can enter play on the 1D6 roll of 4–5, or a single Dalek on the roll of a 6. Models enteralong the neutral table edge. Once a total of 6 Dalek Troopers or 2 extra Daleks have entered play stop rollingfor reinforcements.

Roll 1D6 every time a Guerrilla model fails a Morale test.On the roll of 1–2, the model activates it’s recall unit anddisappears back to the 22nd Century – remove the modelfrom play.

Victory PointsThe standard Victory Point rules on page 25 are used inthis scenario.

Guerrilla warriors from 200 years in Earth’s futurehave sent two units back in time to try and alter

the course of history. One group isattempting to kill Sir Reginald Styles(see Day of the Daleks ), theother is investigating thepresence of Daleksand a temporal disturbance in the year 1984.

The Daleks plan tocapture the Doctor and send aduplicate of him to Gallifrey to

assassinate the Time Lord President.They are in the initial stages of setting this trap whenthe sudden appearance of the guerrillas forces themto take action.

The guerillas also have a secret weapon – some of the Movellan virus, gained through encounters with the Dalekinvasion forces in their own time.

ForcesHeroes and Allies: 12 Guerrillas (count as Security Guards,armed with SMGs) One has Morale 8, and Leader (2) andtwo have Leader (1). Half of the Guerrilla models carrygrenades of Movellan Virus – see right. Monsters and Villains: The Dalek side consists of a ForceCommander (counts as a Black Dalek), one Patrol Leader,and 2 Daleks.

The TableThe 48x48” table represents an area of deserteddockyards, and should have scattered warehouses, gantries,quaysides etc. There should be plenty of crates and otheritems to hide behind.Warehouses should have at least 1door – any doors will be locked on the 1D6 roll of 4+.Locked doors have Str and Def of 4.

Set UpThe Guerrillas begin within 12” of one table edge anddeploy first, the Daleks within 12” of the opposite edge.

D e s i g n e r s N o t e s & C r e d i t s


The DWMG:2 needed to come about to rationalise thevarious PDFs released since May 2006. Many of them had

included new rules as they were thought of, and some likethe Cybermen and Dalek releases had such good stuff inthem they had to be in a basic rules set.

Emails sent in and posts made on the Yahoo! site suggestedother things, such as including more examples and makingother rules tweaks (although most of the rules have stayedpretty much the same). I hope these changes make thegame better, plus they also prove it’s not all ‘me me me’.

The rules had to be bigger to incorporate clarificationsand more examples, and I initially settled on 60 pages,

which was 50% up. Now it has reached 64 pages, and it’sfitting that there are also over 50% more profiles – including Captain Yates, who was accidentally missed fromthe 1st Edition, and a whole section on Gallifrey and theTime Lords.

A 3 month break from work in early 2006 allowed me tohammer on with the 1st edition at record pace, withRichard the artboi and myself playtesting rules every fewweeks until we had mostly knocked it into shape.Which isactually a pretty good way to go about it.

This time the rules have taken well over a year, and havebeen written in such diverse places as a storm batteredScottish island, the world’s smallest cottage in Yorkshire,and various cafes in Prague. Making life harder is the factthat monthly DWMG releases have had to be written atthe same time – some months went by with only a fewsentences finished on the 2nd edition.

The look of the rules have undergone some subtletransformations, with better fonts in place, images at150dpi instead of 72dpi (more than 4 x the resolution of the 1st edition), and getting stupidly annoying things fixedlike getting the text to line up with itself across the

columns. Finally the rules look more like the business.

I had initially thought that a simple rewrite and tweak would be fairly straightforward, but it has turned into amonster project which like all monster projects will beundeniably good to get finished.

2nd Edition Designers NotesThe DWMG:2 has been a collaborative effort, so thanks forall the emails and posts on the Yahoo! site. I hope I have

taken on board all the best of suggestions.The followingpeople deserve special mention for their specific rules:

Gallifreyan rules on pages 29–30, Omega onpage 31, Draconian on page 48 and Tangled Webscenario on page 58 written by Karl Perrotton.

Cybermen rules on pages 42–43 written by Greg

Storey.

Ice Lord rules on page 49 written by Roland Thorne.

Everything else has mostly been written by myself (notforgetting Richard’s input on the 1st Edition, much of

which survives in this one.)

Big thanks to Alice and Michael Spencelayh for checkingthe drafts of the rules and fixing the numerous typos,grammatical errors and the ever troublesomeapostrophies (still having problems with its and it’s!)
