I just got this game for christmas aswell and have played it through 2 times by myself (controlling both sides as best I could), 1st time with Elfs vs. Waiqar and then with Daqan vs. Uthuk. I scrolled through the rules shortly before starting and then read them as I played. In my opinion its easy to learn the rules just by playing the game and if something really weird jumps up, just check it from BGG
I learnt about 80% of the rules in the 1st game and then completely understood everything after the 2nd playthrough. It does of course help, if you are used to play "heavy rules" games. Though "hex and counter wargames" strike me more as the "heavy rules" games, so runewars has "medium rules" in my opinion.
Game on! It's truly a wonderful game once you grasp all the nuances of the game. I'm sure I havent seen enough of this game yet, since I've only tried it solo. I'm really looking forward to get this game to the table next time we play with our group.
Happy Gaming!

Nice to hear you are enjoying the game. I am starting slowly to get into the rules now and i am going to play my first test game solo tonight before i introduce it to anyone else to see what difficulty level it is.
Glad to hear that it is a good game.
