Just to verify, and because I can't seem to find the answer in the BRB:

What exactly happens if attacks are considered "magical"?

Thanks in advance.

They can hit & wound ethereal creatures.

They negate Wood Elf ward saves. (No other types of ward saves... just Wood Elves.)

fellblade is correct. Magical attacks are just that. They have the ability to wound certain models or ignore certain types of ward saves.

Ah, thanks. I knew it was something to that effect from contextual reading, but couldn't find the actual ruling on it.

Cheers.

Just to clarify, so no one gets confused, they negate Forest Spirit (Treeman, Treeking, Dryads, etc.) Ward Saves.

Wardancers still get their 6+ Ward saves, etc.
