**lord commissar klimino**

they didnt magically appear,they just came really fast. plus i wasent planning on doing anything else til they arrived so yeah....

**ineptus astartes**

still. you cant go at a faster speed than the other players, that will screw things up, in any case, you have to go to the docks for more troops, they don't just show up when you want them to.

**lord commissar klimino**

or you know,they could come to me using directions. dont feel like re doing the entire post so ill just wait for it to have been a few days in the game.

**ineptus astartes**

yeah. just cut and paste it for later.

**lord commissar klimino**

ok,although still leaves me with nothin.so for now im back to just defendin base

**ineptus astartes**

just RP some reason for going into the central city, also where are you?

the narrative storyline is shaping up.

**lord commissar klimino**

if you look im in door quarter near the pit. We have set up a crude barricade around it and are making it better.

**ineptus astartes**

OK, but at night you will have to fight constantly. see The Pit info

'The Pit: Ground zero, most dangerous area of all Mordheim. Pockets of radiation have driven the surviving locals mad and blood hungry.'

**lord commissar klimino**

meh,i think trained soldiers and even crude barricades can hold up against a bunch of insane civilians. and we wont be 'constantly' as were slightly away from the pit.really only the side facing the pit is in trouble :/

dang dirty mobs and random new info,messing up a barely planned out plan.

**ineptus astartes**

this is not random, it is posted on the RP section. the entire city is one big hazard.

**ineptus astartes**

The city of Morheim was destroyed on the stroke of midnight, marking the year 2000. The city was struck by a twin tailed
comet, which many believed to herald the second coming of Sigmar. Thousands flocked from all over the old world, to witness
the miracle of Sigmars return, only to see the comet thunder into the city, killing hundreds and almost destroying the old
quarter of the city. The city was in chaos, fires burnt and neighbour fought neighbour.
Amidst the smoke and ash that was once Mordheim, shards of Wyrdstone was found. It was discovered that this rare stone could
cause miracles: healing the sick, raising the dead, even turning base metals into gold. Tresure hunters and mercenaries flocked to
the city, looking to make their fortune.

Merchants Quarter: Mostly left intact after the impact of the comet, the Merchant quarter thrived in the influx of travellers. Anything
and everything can be bought here. Policing is almost non existant, as most of Count Steinbarts men were called to the Palace
grounds. All race's mingle in an uneasy peace, only held together with the promise of gold and Wyrdstone.

Quayside: The quays of Mordheim have never been as busy. Ships and vessals from far off lands dock here, bringing reinforcements for
their own interests.

Great Library of Mordheim: Gutted and half burnt down in the riots that followed the comet, the Great Library is been used as a
refugee camp. Squaler and crime is ripe here.

River gate: Heavily guarded gate which allows boats into Mordheim. Under complete control of Count Steinbart.

Middle bridge: Bridge connecting both sides of Mordheim. Under complete control of Count Steinbart. Closed off.

Market Square: People rarly venture so close to the impact site. The area is dangerous during the day, as various bands cut each others
throats, trying to get what they can. At night, however, the area becomes a haven for gouls. They have become braver,
their numbers swollen as they crawl here from the dark corners of the old world. Bodies are dragged into the dark, and
are never found again.

The Pit: Ground zero, most dangerous area of all Mordheim. Pockets of radiation have driven the surviving locals mad and blood hungry.

Clock Tower: The highest point of all Mordheim.

Poor Quarter: All sorts of dark and hideous creature made their home here.

The Rock: Former prison for the whole region, contact has been lost over 15 hours after the impact.

Rich Quarters: Almost unaffected by the impact. Under complete control of Count Steinbart

West Gatehouse: Closed off. Under complete control of Count Steinbart

The Palace: Surrounded by 11 foot tall wall, and garassoned by the city guard, Count Steinbart resides here.

Temple of Morr: The temple closed its doors once the comet impacted. It hasn't opened its doors since, rumour has it that the cemetary stirs at night

Executioners Square: Kind of self explanatory.

see?

you fit right in.

no offense,but i obviously cant read olde english to well so that map is confusing me on name.plus we killed everything we see and sealed off any sewers we found,were as good as possible for being in a hazard city.

oh,and yes vine does

**ineptus astartes**

yes, but there are literal millions of inhabitents of the city. so, yo you are not safe, no one is...

while the sewer problems deter skaven but they are knowen for having secret entrances in cellars, they probably wont bother with you.

**Toastedandy**

Morning everybody

The way I imagined the Pit:

Smoke and fog everywhere, makes it VERY hard to see more than 10 feet infront. Buildings collapse under their own weight, going inside a building is extremely dangerous. The shadows constantly move with dark mutated creatures. These would be : Gouls, Stigoi Vampire (They are like animalistic vampires compared to the von carsteins, Lahmians etc) Skaven, Beastmen, Zombies, Necromancers etc.

Like a boiling pot of evil

**ineptus astartes**

well right here it is 5:30 PM and raining like hell (though what rain would be doing in hell is beyond me)

and yes, toasted, that is pretty much the pit (the skaven fortress is an interesting place as well, hardly any people even knew about the skaven at this point in time. the only clues being dark shadows scurrying in the cellar, or an inhuman screech from the sewers...)

**ineptus astartes**

well it is hectic here, the entirety of the 3rd floor and most of the second floor and bedrooms have 6 inches of water in them when the 3rd floor balcony overflowed

**Toastedandy**

WHAT?! Thats freaking mental man, like the day after tomorow or something

Its 12:33 here, sunny is shining, and coffee is just made.

I was going to try and get into a fight with some orcs on the docklands.

Comabatants would be:

Bretonian noble w/Sword
5 Men at arms with Halberds
Sigmund w/ Pistol
Gregor w/Fists

against

Orc Chieftain w/ fists
2 black orcs w/ 2 choppas
5 orc boys w/choppas

How would I do the combat?

I have an idea about the Rock aswell. That the inmates have taken over and are using it as a fortress. They have all the guards weapons and armour, and are nutters.

**Sister of Krieg**

Wow i'm the furthest away from the Wyrdstone comet O.o long way to go.

**ineptus astartes**

noble: dead

four men at arms: dead, 1 wounded

4 boyz dead

gregor: full HP (three ones on the chief's part)

sigmund:
black orcs: alive, one wounded

sigmund: medium wounds, but killed the chieftan

the rain here is like kamino

**Toastedandy**

Do we find anythng after searching the nobles possessions? Can we keep his horse?

**ineptus astartes**

well...lets see...(usually we would do this via PM BTW)

the dice say...tough luck, only 60 GP, his house would be...roll dice...repossessed by the baron

**Toastedandy**

Noice.

Total gold:

2000 :Left over
- 10: Tavern
- 30: Drink
- 5: Breakfast
+ 60: Dead noble

2015 gold left

**ineptus astartes**

aI determin swag by rolling a d6 to determine how many d6s I shold roll for gold, each . is a 10

**Sister of Krieg**

oh did i get anything from the beast men?

**ineptus astartes**

lets see...dice rolling...300 GP

**Sister of Krieg**

yay ^.^ any wyrdstone? they may have stolen some althought that's more likely to be in their camp I guess :S I think i'll summon 1 tree kin for the 300 GP I found on the beastmen ^.^
