Hello.
The Flag of blood keep p87 of VC AB.
... grants.. ward .. against ranged attacks of any kind (incl. war machines, templates, magic missiles, etc)

Do it grants that 4+ Ward save vs Magic?? not MM but plain magic? Like Confraglation of Doom, Tz spell that dmg all in 12" around caster, Uranos Thunder Bolt?

I think that the unit has to be the target of the magic or mundain attack. Thats my 2 cents.

It works against any spell classified as a magic missile and all the normal shooty stuff.

So the Slaans ward doesn't work against Rule of Burning Iron, then?

Umm, I think the slanns 4+ ward save works against everything. you may be thinking of the Engine of the Gods or the banner that adds to the slanns ward to make it a 2+ against missile attacks. In that case, unless it is a missile(magic or otherwise) no it does not work.

Erm, nope: it states "ranged attacks of any kind. Did the attack come from close combat? No? then you get a ward save.

Really quite simple....
