The forsaken 2. Reikland mercenary warband reboot.



The forlorn faces at the inn table spoke volumes about how successful the first foray into Mordheim had been.

The foul beer and worm ridden bread did not help lift their spirits but it was all they could afford after the disaster of their first raid and the Chirurgeon bills that followed.

One poxy shard of Wyrd stone.... ONE!
The eyes of the men glowered at Crashhart. "Red” was already busy hauling their heavy armour and beautifully forged weapons into the merchants cart outside.

"Come on lads" Crashhart boomed "the armour made us too conspicuous any way! Think of all the new gear we can get with the funds".
Crashhart raised his rough, wooden, goblet. "A toast....... New beginnings".

The men murmured their response and downed their beers, wincing in disgust at the putrid taste of the liquor.
"Right boys, I'm popping outside to finish up with the merchant, finish your 'feast' and I'll see you outside".
Red was already sitting in the back of the cart as Crashhart exited the inn and jumped up to sit next to the merchant.
This would be a new beginning alright! By now the poison would be taking its toll on the others, the piss flavoured beer disguising its taste perfectly!

The sold off wargear and the bounties for his dead outlaw band would be just enough to fund his new warband.

Too many mistakes had been made the first time out and mistakes will get you killed in Mordheim!
The letter from his old "friends" from Lustria had cemented his decision. It was time to start again....... New beginnings indeed!

The Forsaken 2
After the disaster that was my first game of Mordheim and actually having read the rules I have decided to completely redesign my Reikland warband. The simple flaw was I had too few warriors to carry the battle field and all the gold coins spent on heavy armour amounted to nothing!

I have decided to stick with the Reikland Mercenaries (NO NEW MINIATURES!). But my equipment choices and lack of personnel really needed to be addressed.

Mordheim Reikland warband. We need more artillery

Just a quick post of what I spent my first 40 lousy gold coins from my first mission on.


Our new member is called "Archie" and was one of the original hand gunners of the 1st Lustrian. He was honourably discharged and used his pension to buy a homestead near New Haven.

Archie was left pennyless after escaping the destruction of New Haven and now hopes to revive his fortunes in Mordheim


He is a Reikland Mercenary Markman (25 GC) with bow (10 GC), mace (3GC) and dagger (free).

Only 1 figure finished this week (393 to go!), but have kit bashed and base coated about half a dozen figures. Unfortunately the light quality this week has been really poor so I was not willing to try the detail work.

After actually READING the Mordheim rulebook I have been thinking about a complete reboot of my warband and starting again! This depends on me finishing up the new figures in time for next weeks game.

At least I am making a dent into the Militia detatchment for my WHF Empire army.

Mordheim. Game 1. Fear the zombie conga!




Read on for the completely unbiased account of the Heroic, noble Lord Crashhart and the cowardice of the scum bag undead horde that shamelessly assailed him from all sides.

JE SUIS CHARLIE



Mordheim Reikland Mercenary Warband

So here is my completed Mordheim Mercenary Warband I finished painting last night.

And to be honest they are as much of a surprise to me as they are to you.

Introducing "The Forsaken"

Wednesday Lano put something on the forum about a Mordheim campaign and the whole thing kicked of this Saturday (nothing like a bit of notice).

I have a quick scan through a PDF rulebook and realise I can play with less then 8 models and I am suddenly feverishly sorting through my Empire army to see what I have to fit.
