ninefinger Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Ordo Fanaticus will be hosting our own campaign in the City of (the damned) Roses Every Sunday, through the month of August, game nights at WOW, we will be scratching the itch for some seriously old school rules, and shaking the dust off Mordheim. Mordheim is a skirmish variant of Warhammer Fantasy that was originally published in 1999. Bands of 5-20 warriors search through a ruined city and beyond for unimaginable riches, and sometimes find unimaginable horrors. Full of strange happenings, lasting injuries and heroic achievements, Mordheim has held the imagination of gamers for more than 15 years, and is still fantastically fun to play. Can you survive the City of (the damned) Roses? Bring a warband and test your mettle! Don’t have a warband? I’ll have several available to borrow! Don’t know what Mordheim is? Pursue the rules or just show up and we’ll get you started. Mordheim COTDR Rulebook.pdf Mordheim COTDR Warbands.pdf Mordheim COTDR Campaign.pdfMordheim COTDR GM Guidebook.pdf Roster Sheet Link I’ve built a custom version of the Mordheim rules, blending most of the official rules as well as some highly crafted fan-built variants.

Don't Panic Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Might bring my wife and try to get her into it. What armies do you have? I could make up beastmen or dwarfs from my whfb collection if need be.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninefinger Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I've got painted Beastmen, human mercenaries, and undead. Unpainted, cult of possessed, sisters of Sigmar, dwarves, o&g, witch hunters, skaven. Maybe more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blustorm Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Can I just make a warband out of the original book or has everything changed in the update? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savion47 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Excited Jeff. FYI there is zero chance I will have carnival of chaos ready for this so I would love to borrow a warband if possible. I will work on it though in hopes I can use it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninefinger Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Can I just make a warband out of the original book or has everything changed in the update? The only changes to any warband setup is that Light Armour has been reduced to 10 gc and Heavy Armour has been reduced to 25 gc. All hero and henchmen selections have been totally unchanged. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninefinger Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Ha! was just working on that. I'm a big fan of these as well, and they have the tracking for Campaign Points that we'll be using http://bordertownburning.ciantygames.com/pdf/btb_editable_roster.pdf I'll have a pile of these printed off at Game Night, as well Edit: A second option from the guys at Liber Malefic https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9489887/Roster%20Sheet%202014%20Fillable%20MiM%20blank.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really easy to forget racial maximums when leveling up characters, having them right on the sheet helps a ton. Same thing with being able to tick off henchmen advancements. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indytims Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Yeah, like Andrew, the ones that Rhuntar linked are the ones I use too. Very nifty, nicely organized, with space for all sorts of stuff plus notes and such. Highly recommended! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indytims Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 P.S..... Mordheim seems to be having a bit of recent upswing in Portland, and there's a very steady group of players up in Vancouver... Wouldn't it be fun to have a "North Mordheim" vs. "South Mordheim" day sometime down the road? The gangs from the north part of the city and those from the south side meet up for some beatdowns? We could even have 'rivers' on every board, representing our beloved border between north and south! Food for thought. :) -Tim 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pull them out and make sure they're ready, and try and shoot a pic so you can build a list ahead of time if desired. (I'm not going to be picky about wisiwig, but I tend to prefer to build my lists based on the models, just for my own ease of play.) They're largely the basic models, so any stock photos would show you what should be available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't Panic Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 stupid question 101 time: how come the sigmar sisters have special rules and access to special items yet regular witch hunter warband does not? am i missing something?

ninefinger Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 stupid question 101 time: how come the sigmar sisters have special rules and access to special items yet regular witch hunter warband does not? am i missing something? Witch hunters have access to a x-bow pistol off the bat (only ones i believe, and it's got a special in combat effect), and a greater variety of missile weapons in general (slings only for sisters). The witch hunter theme in general is of a smaller elite warband, heroes with quality eq, backed up by fanatical degenerates. Sister's theme is slightly different, more black/white and much less grey in character than the witch hunters. *Shrug* it seemed like a good idea 15 years ago and fit the model designs, is probably the reason... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 cool thanks for the run-down! there's a couple armies that have special rules and some that dont so i found that a bit interesting. makes sense though. they do have access to more ranged equipment which probably more than makes up for special rules.

Don't Panic Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 yea unfortunately i only have 1 thing that will work as a flagellant and he's a drunk monk... but ill have a bunch of pew pew zealots that probably wont hit the broad side of a barn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Awesome. I will be there with a likely [big bad swear word]ty band of mercs from Marianburg. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Great games - I gotta build a new warband after last game's carnage, but that's not so bad :) Thanks Jeffrey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yeah, thanks Jeffrey for putting this together. It was my first time playing Mordheim and I had a blast! Look forward to getting more games in! Great games - I gotta build a new warband after last game's carnage, but that's not so bad :) Thanks Jeffrey. Sorry for killing and/or selling your men into slavery :) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
