The results of some preliminary calculations on the combined effects of line radiation and magnetic forces on rotating stellar winds are presented. Consideration is given to the equatorial plane of a steady-state isothermal spherically symmetric expanding rotating wind of infinite electrical conductivity and zero viscosity. Magnetic field lines originating at the equator are assumed confined to the equatorial plane in order to construct a one-dimensional hydrodynamic model. It is shown that the azimuthal velocity of shallow winds is enhanced by magnetic corotation, while steep winds may feature a diminished circular velocity. Gradual radial acceleration by the line radiation force magnetically enhances the azimuthal velocity.
