    • Chapter 88 ~ Anyone remember the Skaven?

    Having sailed back home on Cpt Jameson barge we worked on sorting out Silavan's will.  Turned out are timing was perfect as Michael Stich was down from Nuln to do the same!  Flendac managed to convince him that he was part of the secret slaanesh cult and got the deeds to the docks without a fight.

    After that we went to see Dagmar to let her know Asterellion had put a bounty on her head.  We flatly refused to help her kill the War-dancers but when she offered us 5000 crowns to deal with the Skaven vermin we decided to give that a go.

    We knew there were too many for us to take them all out at once but thought we might be able to sneak around and deal with a few to reduce numbers.  Seeing a couple of Sentries Madoc scared them with him undead form and we ran forward intent on stabbing them.  Unfortunately the chittering had alerted others and the flying mutant swooping into view causing Zena and Flendac to faint with terror.

    Terrified Tayy fled but Madoc held his wraith form stopping most of the Skaven from advancing on his friends.  The monster landed smashing Zena in the head and leaving her for dead walked back to his companians with her sword.  Flendac recovered and, grabbing his own weapon, turned tail and fled.

    With the Rats occupied Zena was able to sneak away and we all slunk back to the city.  Gaining the title of Harbour Master Tayy took over running the docks for Flendac giving them both a tidy income.  He also made a side deal with the Dragon club to give them late night access in exchange for extra cash for Flendac and himself.  With the city safe the happy Halfing retired from adventuring life.

    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.

    TourPlay Redrafting Guide

    Blood Bowl Redrafting  A quick guide for redrafting teams using TourPlay for League tracking When your team has been submitted to join the league you can see at the top of the screen a message saying the team is redrafting and all the players are greyed out with a warning triangle at the start. Your team value should show zero and your treasury be 1,300,000 gold.  If either of these are not the case then STOP and contact an admin before continuing with redrafting. When you select each player you are given the option of hiring them again.  You can see the cost to rehire, including agency fee, shown below the players value.  If you elect to Fire a player TourPlay will ask for confirmation but once you say yes that player is gone.  There is no way to bring them back! When you hire a player the system will roll to see if any Niggling Injuries are healed. Players cost an extra 20k to rehire for each previous season they have played.  If you rehire five players after one season that will lea

    WFRP 1st Edition Advanced Careers Chart

    Image
      Warhammer Fantasy Role Play has always had an interesting system with using careers as a way for characters to advance in the game.  With over sixty basic careers they is a lot of options that players can have for their character. When you then move on into all the Advanced Careers there is a lot of options.  Coming back to the game I wanted to know what routes were available to get from which advanced career to another. As no chart existing I created one including key Characteristics that are available. Key Rectangles show Advanced Careers while ovals are Basic Careers.  I have shaded in those careers that cannot be reached from other Advanced Careers.  Given the Magical careers do not really connect with the others I left them off the diagram. The Highwayman, Duelist, Assassin and Outlaw Chief form four corners of our diagram with the Mercenary Captain as the central hub.  This allows for characters to move round the majority of advanced careers without ever having to go back to a
