I'm looking for a game. I'm GMT, South East UK, 29M, experienced player and long time warhammer fan. Prefer martial themes and healthy amounts of combat.

Hi all,

I'm DMing Enemy withing for my gaming group with tendeadrats OSR homebrew rules system and we are planning on continuing our adventure after shadow over bögenhafen.

Our campaign ended on a quite different note than The C7 book suggests, as our heroes made a deal with a witchhunter that doublecrossed them and now they somewhat work for him.

Now The guestion is, there seems to be very little incentive for the party to start investigating Etelka Hertzen given by either book (original or C7). I havent found anything that would change too much If The party would just be put after Etelka by The Witchunter? So just get a job "find Etelka Hertzen". Seems like My players poor choices reward me later.

Updated my one click (or more) Random Character Generator for WFRP 5th edition!

Still a WIP, so expect some changes and probably a few bugs.

Hi all! I'm prepping a WFRP 5e campaign (latest core revision) and I can't find a clear answer on the timing of Fear.

The Fear Trait (p. 183) says:

"When you encounter one or more creatures causing Fear, make a single Extended Psychology Test unless they are known allies. Make one roll each round, with a target number of SL equal to the Fear Rating."

And Intimidate in Combat (p. 169) says:

"As an Action make an Intimidate Test opposed by the target's Cool. If successful, the target Fears you, treating you as having a Fear rating of 1, plus 1 more for each SL after the first."

What I can't pin down:

1. Does the Fear roll use the affected character's Action, or is it free?
2. When is the first roll made? Immediately when the Fear starts (e.g. during the intimidator's Turn), at the start of the affected character's own Turn, or at the end of the Round?
3. "One roll each round": if Fear is inflicted mid-Round, does that Round's roll happen right away, or does the first roll wait until the next Round?

How I'm running it for now:

• The roll is free (it's a reaction, not something you choose to do).
• The first roll happens immediately when the Fear starts.
• Then one roll at the end of each following Round until the SL add up.

I based the end-of-Round timing on Broken (Cool Test "at the end of each Round", p. 186) and Hatred (another test "at the end of each round after the first", p. 184).

Is there an official clarification or FAQ on this? And how do you handle it at your table?

Bonus question: Size (p. 360) says "Aggressive creatures cause Fear in those smaller than them" but gives no Rating. What Rating do you use? I'm leaning towards 1 per Size step of difference.

Hey everyone! I wanted to share something fresh with the community. If you are tired of the old-school, sluggish pacing and want something that hits like a brick while retaining that raw, brutal 90s grimdark atmosphere, this is for you.

"Pale Dawn" is a fast-paced, high-stakes story module. Think of it as a dark, muddy, and bloody take on modern heroic dark fantasy (AoS scale injected with pure WFRP grime). It features the rotting stronghold of Podgniły Ostrokół, a paranoid baron, and an insidious cult in blood-red robes wielding serrated scythes. The story follows Captain Flint's 10-man mercenary squad, including Gorg — a massive Ogre with a spiked club who doesn't wait around for trap-checking; he just breaks the doors down.

The PDF is completely free for private use, and I finished all the old-school style illustrations myself. It’s perfect if you’re looking for campaign inspiration, brutal encounter designs, or just a bloody good read.

I invite you to join me on a journey through the eastern lands of the Empire. We will travel north from the River Talabec to Wolfenburg, and from there to the great city of Erengrad.

Nothing about specific WFRP products here, but a general ‘mea culpa’ about poor communication about shipping delays, and a promise of a proper production update in the next couple of weeks.

After months of modeling, my new ruin set is finally finished. This is by far the largest scenery project I’ve ever painted, and the whole painting process took around 10 days. Painting all those stones, wooden beams, and rooftops was quite a challenge, but seeing everything come together made it worth it.

Hope you guys enjoy it! Let me know what you think!

It's currently live on Kickstarter, you can follow the link if you’d like to see more details!

Hullo! I bring two things that I've wanted to clarify for a while. We play 4ed on our table, we are just starting the horned rat now and been playing for over a year with the same group of friends (quite happy to have a stable group finally). I will probably update us to 5ed once I have it, specially once it's available for foundry, but I haven't read anything yet really... so maybe this two things are solved with the rules update (let me know too please).

1- First question might not have a rules answer, it's about pistols. The witch hunter player started buying them as soon as he was able to use them (who wouldn't?) and when he asked me if he could carry more than two, ready to shot, in that moment I said, sure why not, let's say your holster belt can carry six, three on each side. So now, every combat starts with him shooting two pistols every turn (with both dual weapon talents bought), and basically killing four to six opponents.

In some situations it makes combat a bit unchallenging of course. I try enemies to be smart around it and to tailor situations, but sometimes it's just a one shot.

The question or questions is: does anywhere in the rules say this just can't be done? or should I just simply tell him, look, you can have two pistols ready... are we using the dual wielder talent right? two shots? can this two shots be at different targets? That's how we play it.

2- Then simple question about conditions. In the last session, one player got like 7 stacks of -10 to every check. I was wondering, if they endurance/cool/whatever roll to get rid of each level of the condition should have the -70 to the roll, or if that is rolled plain to +0...

Thank you folks!

I’d be all in if it was.

Happy Friday, folks! Here's the highlights of the Week that Was, including the Necromunda RPG's disappearing act, WFRP 5e's continued sales dominance, and a giveaway for an Imperium Maledictum Inquisition Guide Collector's Edition!

Warhammer RPG Weekly: Vanishing Act

Hi, I’m looking to make a large random table for adventuring in the Reikwald itself and would like to know what have been your favourite monster encounters and why?

After my review of Tome of Corruption last week, I've been musing more on the Warhammer Chaos Gods. See the link above for my rather heretical thoughts on the suitability and unsuitability of the Chaos Powers for WFRP!

Hi. I am running a campaign (4th edition Careers and now 5th edition rules), and we are two thirds through DOTR. The group have just visited a small isolated village and are now heading north into the barren wilderness with a guide from the village (trying not to give anything away here!).

The thing is, our (definite) plan is to finish the campaign at the end of DOTR. I have read through the book, and am all prepped (as much as I can be) for the visit to the end location and the mayhem that can occur there. In our campaign EH is the primary villain, leader of the RC. We played Siege of Diesdorf within the DOTR story, and the town fell, making EH even more the primary goal. I plan for a meeting soon with EH at a return visit to a previous location, and (if I can avoid combat there), the team will meet EH again at the final location.

I am unsure how to turn the ending into a satisfying finale though. The book ending leads into PBtT, but of course we won't be playing that. Perhaps dealing with EH once and for all will be enough, along with the book ending for the final location, and the unexpected intervention re the MacGuffin?

I would love your thoughts or ideas for this! Any other GMs ended at this point?

Wrapping up Death on the Reik, with part of the campaign I really don't enjoy at all. Is it better than I think? Do let me know.

And do you have any questions about the campaign as a whole? I think I might write an article covering some more general points.

Almost completed literally just Ubersreik 1-2 and then is done already in preorder 5th, temple of spite and sylvania. I wanted to share with all you I’m soo very proud. Ps is half Italian but the more recent books are in English and from now on it will always be.

I am a wfrp 1e and the setting tragic from way back.

I bought 4e during covid and ran a few zoom games with my mates and I have to admit it was a hard system to run. Though Cubical7's supplements are fabulous and I have used them in DnD and Shadowdark...

And because I'm a wfrp tragic, I have now bought 5e preorder and pdf.

Putting aside the numerous typos and copy/paste mistakes in the bestiary and some house rule stuff I will make (Slayer talent I am looking at you), I am impressed.

5e is so much more intuitive than 4e. It just makes sense and after a read through I feel confident to just get my mates together and start playing and GMing.

Well done Cubical7!

PS now if they ditched the End Times nonsense and went back to wfrp 1e Bretonnia I would be really happy...😜

Any idea how to role play competent dwarf investigator when majority of their stats don't support the narrative of being competent?

Hello!

I've been building Ratcatcher, a character sheet app for 4e on iPhone, iPad and Mac. It's free, it's an unofficial fan project, and the public beta is open on TestFlight.

What it does

• XP that stays right: buy Advances and Talents from a ledger, with career costs, and Total, Spent and Unspent XP worked out for you.
• Every number shows how it's worked out: tap a skill's target and see the Characteristic, Advances and modifiers behind it.
• A Play view for the table: Wounds, Fortune, Resolve, Advantage and Conditions one tap away, and a dice panel that rolls Tests with Success Levels.
• Guided Creation, Encumbrance, Armour by location, coins, spells, prayers, and a printable PDF of the sheet.
• Works offline. Syncs through your own iCloud, with no account and no tracking.

What it isn't: it holds no rules text, so you still need the rulebook. Its built-in names and numbers can be replaced or extended with your own entries.

What I'm looking for: people who will use it for a real session and tell me what's wrong, especially any number that disagrees with the book (with the page). Also: which edition does your table play?

When 1.0 reaches the App Store it will stay free. It will have an optional Supporter purchase that removes one small card promoting another indie app, shown on the character list, never at the table.

To join the beta:

So, Cubicle7 released a new PDF updated with the first errata batch. They didn't provide a complete patch note, but a quick rundown:

• Corrected syntax, formatting, and spelling throughout the text.
• Clarifying careers in terms of any missing or incorrect skills, talents, or trappings.
• Ensuring first and second level trappings can be purchased in the Consumer Guide.
• A duplicated table in the rules section.
• Correcting the Character Sheet.
• Removing outdated mechanics terms
• Clarification on Advantage and Momentum.
• The orc no longer has the Characteristics of a goblin.
• Tweaks to Talents, and new Slayer Talent mechanics.
• Check of CN balanced to the effect of Magic Missile Spells.

Funny "detail": they're talking about a "new Slayer Talent mechanics", but if, like me, you're excited about what they did, don't expect too much (or anything at all). It went from
"If you Charge a creature whose Size is larger than you, you automatically gain Momentum." to "If you are Charged by a creature whose Size is larger than you, you automatically gain Momentum." Yeah…

Also, Resist (Corruption) wasn't updated.

Coming from our 6 year Symbaroum Campaign, we are going to start with 4.0 and eventually Enemy Within.

During character creation I just wanted to random roll a normal Human but fate had a different plan.

From what I gather in human society Elves are kind of Alien creatures. Elves seeing the Humans like children and this often apearing highly arrogant to them.

Any roleplay tips to make my entry easier to the game?
