Runewars Miniatures Game uses custom dice to resolve combat. There are three types of dice: red, blue, and white. Each die has a different combination of symbols corresponding to its color. Red dice tend to deal more damage but have a greater chance of missing. Blue dice deal less damage but have a greater chance to roll surge results. White dice are powerful dice used primarily by heroes.

Die Symbols[]
Hit - Hits can be spent by the attacker to deal damage and possibly inflict wounds. This is the fundamental way for you to destroy enemy units.
Surge - Surges are used to trigger special abilities. These special abilities may be found on your unit card or an upgrade card attached to your unit.
Mortal Strike - A mortal strike deals one wound to your target, regardless of that unit’s defense. This powerful symbol is only found on the white dice wielded by the mightiest warriors.
Morale - At the end of the attack, you can spend morale symbols to inflict a morale test on the defender.
Accuracy - The accuracy result lets you target a specific figure in the enemy unit, perhaps forcing your opponent to deal wounds to a commander, rather than a simple foot soldier.
Blank - It has no effect.
