Q. Do characters that are part of an Allies Contingent count towards the total number of characters allowed in the army?
A. No. Allies Contingents are treated like separate armies, and so have their own table of minimum and maximum characters (and units).

Q. Can an Allies Contingent be fielded as a stand alone army? If yes, what tables should you use to select the army?
A. Yes, the Allies Contingent rules specifically state that you may use an Allies Contingent list to field a full army. The Direwolf FAQ Council recommends using the "Choosing Characters" and "Choosing Troops" tables found on page 25 of the Empire Army Book to select a stand alone Allies Contingent army.

Q. When a unit of Kislev Winged Lancers or Gryphon Legion declares a frontal charge (and the charging unit has enough movement to complete the charge) against a ranked Skaven unit, are the Skaven still allowed to apply the Strength in Numbers bonus to determine their leadership value for the resulting panic test, or does the "Glorious Charge" rule negate it?
A. The Skaven would get their Strength in Numbers bonus in this situation.

Q. Does Tzarina Katarin, the Ice Queen ride a standard warhorse or a monstrous mount?

Q. How are we to interpret the "Glorious Charge" rule with the release of the 7th edition of the Warhammer ruleset?
A. The FAQ Council recommends that the "Glorious Charge" rule be interpreted as follows:
"Any unit charged by a unit of Winged Lancers (or Gryphon Legion) with a Unit Strength of 5 or more must take a Panic test."
Ignore the remainder of the text of the rule as it simply referred to an example of a Panic test which occurred in the 6th edition of the ruleset and is no longer applicable.
