Town Cryer special edition

Metal Shortage Continues
The metal shortage has now truly entered our markets. Weapons and utensils are becoming scarcer by the week. Some merchants have hoarded metal, to wait out still higher prices. It's not that there isn’t enough metal itself, but the smiths and other metalworkers are the ones becoming scarce. The metalworker district is becoming empty, as many metalworkers flee the area. Many amateur metalworkers now try to work metal in their barns. Therefore many metal items are now not that reliable as they used to be.


- Game mechanic: All full metal items are 2 gc or 10% more expensive (highest cost counts) than normal, partly metal items are 1gc or 5% more expensive. Furthermore: weapons break when their to wound roll is 1. This is only for the HtH weapons bought from now on.

Muleskinner for Hire
My name is Manic Maddigan and I am looking for a steady job. You can hire me for 35 gc and need an additional 15 gc per week. I love animals, especially dogs. I can train them for guard and attack duty. I use my whip to teach them tricks. Hostile environments, no problem. I’ve had some experience working for another employer. I left my former employer, because he constantly wanted to take the dogs near large bonfires. I’d only like to work for humans, dwarves, elves, ogres and halflings. I’ll be wandering around.


- Game mechanic: He has 1 xp and has as specialization dogs. You can hire him at any time.

Grand Tournament of Rigolius
Rigolius, the travelling baron of the Nether Cities will hold a tournament in ten weeks in Mordheim. There is still a lot of speculation on who he really is, for nobody but his personal assistants have seen his face. He will use Rupert von Endon’s Amphitheatre to hold the tournament and he has promised that great prizes can be won. Please sign in at one of the following places: Brigandsburg, City Hall, Count Steinhardt’s Palace, Market Square, Mordheim University, Rich Quarter, Rupert von Endon’s Amphitheatre or Sigmarhaven. Once signed in, you will be picked up in one of the aforementioned places. Be warned, the tournament will be bloody but the rewards unbelievable. The tournament will last for 3 weeks.


- Game mechanic: Pay 1 gc for your warband at one of the places and when your warband is at one of the places at the end of turn 16 (those places are neutral terrain for that turn) you will be teleported to the Amphitheatre. Then you need to undergo a maximum of 3 tests in a row.

Voor de duidelijkheid: je free dagger die je warrior meekrijgt vanaf het begin heeft GEEN last van de metal shortage!
