Re: Dogs of War: WFRP Weapons vs WFB Weapons

Yeah, good call..else it's gonna be 3-4 PCs agaisnt a regiment of Marauders, since everyone ran away... ''Retreat? But we're PCs!'' And Flanking negates rank bonus IIRC as well, so just charging head first may not be always the best move...got to suck up some melee before having the friendly regimen...

Re: Dogs of War: WFRP Weapons vs WFB Weapons

I'll have to recheck the duelligng rules form last edition, but it sounds good. Would combat resolution be affected by the PCs' round of 'Duel' in anyway? Doesn't t gives a bonus to Ld or something?

Re: Roughs Nights and Hard Days Impressions/Review

From the foreword of the book, only the Three Feathers is an old scenario, I beleive the others are new and added as a continuation of the Three Feathers. In fact only "A Day at the Trials" and "A Night at the Opera" are brand new. "Nastassia's Wedding" is a slight rew...

Re: Roughs Nights and Hard Days Impressions/Review

-There are now Guards and Bodyguards that are protecting the Gravin, seems a bit redundant, but yet again the career system is a bit more rigid than before. I expect this is due to the way in which careers and career names in fourth edition are more of a generic (though not totally generic; in rela...

Part 2 A Day at the Trials -Intresting thing to have a Trial-by-combat....unsure about the side-line with some off-hand comment on how they do things in Ostland 'seems random since Ostland is literraly at the other side of the Empire.. -Blowpipe, Blowpipes everywhere!

Re: Dogs of War: WFRP Weapons vs WFB Weapons

You can always run it full WHFRP, have the movmenet of the untis and battlefield be like WFB, but when regiments clash, switch to WHFRP battle? Regiments strenght are still a thing, but when you get down and dirty to it, each models have 12 wounds average, just that a single turn of WFB might be wor...

I' I only broswed it and read the Night at the Three Feathers, during my lunch break so it'll be in parts. First Impressions after browsing -First page is som...

Re: unbalanced races

Indeed it might be the players...yet again, if your player took an Elf to be able to be Legolas, 'only natural he's a bdass with a bow....yet again when having to ask for info in town, his Wood Elf-ness might cause him trouble with the humans, having no skill, no relation, no understanding of them. ...

Re: unbalanced races

The Elves got high initiative yes. Perhaps just use the tens of Initiative +1d10 to make it that they might not always start first always all the time. Unsure why you would make the Elves/Dwarves the same as the others, I think it's what makes them stand out rather than just being diffrently shaped ...

Re: Adjusting the Initiate career

I believe it comes from the fact that in the Old world you are born with the ability to use the Winds of Magic, and it suddenly appears one day in the open, while a Priest uses Faith and prayer to communicate with his God and do 'spells', hance why an initiate is basically a student staring up while...

Re: Proof of ownership

Branding seems the obvious choice, but that would invovled branding it everytime it get sold. I would figure that coaching companies and armies brand their horses, but that Erik the Farmer doesn't mark his horse, which is just a work animal rather than a riding beasts. If we limit ourselves in the m...

Re: Karak Azgal

There's nothing keeping you from keeping the serious dungeon baddies "down" a few more levels and teasing them with enough gobbos/skaven/hints to level them up a bit first, which is the advantage of the fact it doesn't precisely map WHERE the event areas are. if you aren't sure, i'd say t...

Karak Azgal

Hey everyone, I'm gonna be GM-ing for my gaming club friends and since they are looking for a "simple dungeon-crawl", I jumped on the chance of running Karak Azgal. Now, going to the Hold is a campaign onto itself, but skipping the usual road trip, the Party will begin as they arrive at on...
