WFRP Chapter 77: The End

Background: Escaping from the city when things go wrong.

Our Heroes

  • Hayley (Elliot) - Human Mistress of Magic
  • Madoc (David) - Human Friar of Manann [Poseidon]
  • Flendac (Kris) - Human Master Assassin
  • Tayy Whitethorn (Michael) - Halfling Trainee Assassin 
  • Zena (Oliver) - Human Artillerist
  • Rubinifer (Rob) - Human Outlaw Chief



Chapter 77 ~ Day Three

Zena completed her training to become an Artillerist and with increased mental fortitude was able to attune to all the three rings she had acquired from Morgan.

An acolylte of Mann knocked on the door of our lodgings and asked us to come meet with Adam Peaty.  Once there Adam told us about the brutal murders at the Dogs Bark and that watch commander Tyson Fury, supported by Boris Becker, was looking for the culprits.  Apparently a halfing and friends were seen leaving the bar and a Becker had put up 500 crown reward!

He also introduced us to Madoc a friar from the far flung edge of the Empire who was traveling the waterways of his god.  Adam told us Madoc could help us in our battle against chaos.  We outlined what was happening and how Klopp and Becker seemed to be involved in a cult.  We were very clear in our description that Hans shot first in the bar not us.  For a small donation Madoc organized a dormitory for us to stay in so we could hide from the watch.

With Tayy in hiding the rest of the gang went back to Rickard's armory to see if there was anything to buy.  rubinifa wanted to get one of Tayy's old swords but at almost three times the value Tayy got for it it was out of his price range.  Flendac did get everyone to club together to buy Madoc magical leather armour.  When Madoc put it on he found it was even more potent than the blacksmith thought as it also increased his initiative.

The gang bumbled around town for a bit but having no motivation to continue with the quest of stopping tax law changes they returning to the dormitory and the nice meal Tayy had prepared.  There we stayed until we were able to flee the city amongst the large crowds who gathered for the festival.

Chapter 77 ~ Day Eight

With the festival in full swing the gang left, with our tail between our legs, and returned to Kreutshofen.  At Rubinifer's bidding we abandoned Andy and our plans for a fake assassination.

It is a funny old world.  We only came to Nuln to get Morgan trained because Faefiel would not give up her magical bow.  A month later they are both dead and the bow is for sale in Rickard's shop.  As a new mistress of magic Hayley wants training but does not have enough money to buy the bow.  Putting us right back where we started.  Perhaps we will come back at some point, after all there are some good shops, once Hayley has more gold.

Blood Bowl Inducement Review

Blood Bowl Inducement Review As most of the inducement options from Death Zone are allowed in LBBL games I thought it was worthwhile providing a summary of what is available.  I have also added a quick colour code to say if I think the options are Good , Bad or Situationally useful.  Remember as per the League handbook you must bring along an official copy of the relevant rulebook for any Inducement you are using.  This guide is intended to be used to help you decided if you want to buy a copy of Death Zone not as a replacement for it.  Remember folks we get an extra 5% off at Geek Retreat on League night! Death Zone offers (In)Famous Coaching Staff, new Wizards, Named Referees and a small number of other cheap options for using up petty cash.   0-2 (In)famous Coaching Staff Galandril Silverwater 40,000 gp Elven Kingdoms Extra Cheerleaders and a minimal chance of extra Team Re-rolls if that kick off event happens.  I will pass thank you.

Death Zone 2020 - A Review

Image
    Once again we have a beautifully produced full colour book that is slightly marred by the lack of proof reading.  Almost everything in the book is a reprint of the 2016 content updated to use the new team special rules.  There are little things such as Ranulf the Ref still having to "roll higher than the AV of the player" even though the main rule book changes AV 7 to be AV 8+ being everyone else is having to roll equal to AV.  Then we have the new Mercenary rules where the Elf starts with AG 2+ but can increase this by 2 to AG 0+ when AG 1+ is the max allowed!!? New Inducements This section takes all the inducements printed in the old Death Zone and Spike journals and updates them to use the new team special rules.  Instead of being taken by an Orc or Dwarf team they are now Badlands Brawl or Worlds Edge.  This expands which teams can take them.  Some of the inducements have had minor alterations and there are a couple I have not seen before.

Tyranid Etymology

Image
The Tyranid Threat Since our first sporadic contacts with Genestealers there have been many misconceptions associated with them. We first thought they were indigenous to the moons of Ymgarl, later this was determined to be in err and subsequently a xenocide campaign was conducted on said moons. When the Tyranid hivefleets came upon the Imperium, the creatures were named in relation to the first notable plant to fall before their advance, the exploratory station of Tyran. – Draco Legion Biomedical Reserch station: NewHallefuss Origin of the Species Most of the Tyranid organisms in the Warhammer 40k universe have been given Latin or Greek names. This makes them sound more exotic and fits with the general use of Latin by the Imperium. I can not really take credit, beyond compilation, for this etymology as it is all taken from other websites, particually Wiktionary. Biovore – This suffix comes from the Latin vorare (to devour), and is used to form nouns indicating what kind of
