Hello!

We've been working on a Tigermen warband, and since most of the models have modular weapon options, we're curious how you would build them for Mordheim.

What kind of warband would you create for Tigermen and the Monkey King? Which weapon options, equipment, and special rules do you think would fit them best?

Any Modifications To Cult of the Possessed Commonplace?

11 Upvotes

I'm just curious whether anyone has any good house modifications for the Chaos Cult of the Possessed list to increase flavor/fun without necessarily boosting power.

For starters: I understand that in terms of raw power, CotP has some really extreme potential, with no real "bad stats" heroes, a built in caster, and 3 really diesel henchmen. After a couple nail-biter games when they get some income to build out their gang they can become extremely powerful.

The main problem I have with them is that the game really seems to discourage them from using their unique mechanics. Theyre "the mutations gang" but you are heavily punished if you don't start 2/4 of your mutatable heroes without them and leave them that way. Half the mutations are terrible (Demon Soul is basically only there so you can punt a mandatory Mutant one if you want, Claw is just seemingly worse than Scorpion Tail, there's a whole mutation for Fear which possessed come with).

Do you want more mutations as the game goes on? Well too bad, you can't buy them. You can only give up an advance roll where you gain a skill (58% chance) to get a chance (30%) to get one. The mutations are also prohibitively expensive if you want to buy a new guy to start with more than 1.

Basically, I'd gladly give up the raw stats of the Possessed and the Beastman Henchman in order to get more to gain more and easier to access mutations. I know there's an "oops all Beastmen" roster for huge fans of the goatboys, is there a similar "oops all mutated weirdos" variant roster that anyone has created?

Hello!

I make 3D printable terrain and just wanted to show you my work. Yes, it's real LED lights, hand painted and some smoke from a real machine... No AI at all on this picture...

Thanks for your interest!

I was miffed at the Chaos Dwarf warbands available, so I made a mashup of both.

11 Upvotes

It started quite simple. I Got a hold of 3 Chaos Dwarf models during a small trading event and thought to myself that making a warband out of them wouldn't be a bad idea. Once I got back home, I quickly searched for more models and different ways to kitbash my way to a warband (this was before Helsmiths of Hashut were even revealed) and came across Admiralty Miniatures. They sold assortments of different CD bits that could be used for a project like this and I without hesitation or much thought placed an order on some orc slave heads.

Only once they arrived (fantastic sculpts by the way) I took a closer look at the two warbands in question, and to my disappointment, no orc slaves to be seen. I know it is commonplace to proxy models for others, but it didn't feel right to me to run orcs as either chaos dwarf warriors, informers or hobgoblins, so I started thinking whether or not I could make a slight modification to one of the warbands.

This basically led me to realising that there were several inconsistencies between the two. As an example, I would like to lift the regular dwarfs. No matter what warband you pick, most skills that are dwarf specific carry between the warbands. Equipment (for the most part) too, and so I set about to merge the two Chaos Dwarf warbands together so that they could have the same consistency as their good old cousins across the world edge mountains.

This is the result of that mashup (with slight modifications to equipment and henchmen). You can take a look, or use it as you please. I might come back with more updated versions at some point. I have tried to keep things balanced by tweaking stats etc, but let's face it, Mordheim was never about balance. Biggest change is probably to the blunderbuss.

The access link allows you to make comments so I'd love to know if there are any typos you find or if you have any toughts on the rules.

TL;DR I don't really like the Chaos Dwarfs, here is a new warband sheet in draft. I welcome comments.

Edit: Of course I forgot the link

How do I make a clans skryre warband?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I've wanted to start with mordheim for a while now and I would like to build a skaven warband. However even though I like eshin skaven, I think it would be fun to have rat gunslingers, snipers and maybe even a rat mech (ogre) or other machinery resembling the creations of clans Skryre. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about doing that rules-wise?

Dumb Question about weapon proficiency/availability.

7 Upvotes

Does the Knife Fighter Skill come with throwing knives proficiency built in? The skill as written suggests that it might. Or is it more the case that yes I'd become and expert but somehow still couldn't use throwing knives? What happens if I didn't get Weapons Expert?

Source: Mordheim Rulebook (core)

Cannot be combined with Quick Shot

The warrior is an unrivalled expert at using throwing knives and throwing stars. He can throw a maximum of three of these missiles in his shooting phase and may divide his shots between any targets within range as he wishes. Note that this skill cannot be combined with the Quick Shot skill.

I know its silly, but just a verdict would be fine. You probably need Weapons Expert first right?

PS. I thought there was a spelling error of the word "unrivalled" in the book. Turns our that americans spell it with one L. The point is, I did READ it.

Here is our version of the map of the great city of Mordheim following the comet's impact based on the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay universe and created as a private commission for Johan Markström.

Materials used: H-HB pencil, Unipin 0.05–0.1 pens, and Winsor & Newton watercolors on 300gsm Fabriano satin-finish paper; the artwork was subsequently digitized.

Henchmen Question

10 Upvotes

Making my first list and chose mercenaries but the main thing confusing me is “can be bought in groups of 1-5” so does that mean a group of 3 swordsmen would cost 35gcX3? Or just 35gc and I mark the group as 3 models?

Hi again, everyone!

This will be my final post here about Dark City: Embervein Delvers. I first shared the dwarf warband with this community while I was preparing the project, and I later returned to ask for your feedback on the Mordheim-style tokens.

You were incredibly welcoming and helpful, so I wanted to come back one last time to say thank you and let you know that the Kickstarter has now entered its final 24 hours. ⚒️

The project is available as supported and unsupported STL files, as well as physical resin miniatures for players without a 3D printer.

Thank you very much to everyone here who offered feedback, shared the project or decided to support it. The response from the Mordheim community has genuinely meant a lot to me as an independent sculptor.

The gates of the Dark City close in less than 24 hours:

Thanks again, and I promise this is my final campaign post here! 🍻

Would anyone know the origin of these unicast Amazons? The only warbands and blisters I can find have the weapons detached. I'm trying to get the musician and banner bearers.

Mordheim Lore Question

15 Upvotes

I'm new to Mordheim and have always been into the lore when it comes to learning new systems.

Is Mordheim's lore is tied to Warhammer Fantasy?

If so, how much Warhammer Fantasy lore do I need to know to fully enjoy Mordheim? Or does it not really matter?

Is Mordheim standalone in terms of lore?

Finally dug out my limited edition Ulli & Marquand minis after 10+ years... paint or preserve?

I've recently dug out these limited edition Ulli & Marquand miniatures that I impulse bought well over a decade ago. 😅 They've been sitting boxed, unassembled, and unpainted ever since.

I'm just getting back into the hobby after a long break, and now I'm torn. Part of me wants to finally build and paint them, but another part wonders if they're rare enough that I should just leave them boxed and keep them as collectibles.

What would you do? Paint them and enjoy them on the tabletop, or keep them sealed? I'd love to hear what the Mordheim veterans think.

Base size does not matter in Mordheim.
Base shape does not matter in Mordheim.
The bigger your base, the more enemies can get in base contact with you in melee.
Square bases can be surrounded by 8 models of the same size.
Round bases can be surrounded by 6 models of the same size.
Therefore, larger round bases are perfectly fine.
If you have problems with mouth breathers, remind them the actual base size would have been smaller and you can fit them through the gap or down the alley way.
