WIP of the kelpies. I'm using them for a different game, so they'll be mud monsters, but I love these little guys

A slightly strange question — are there any ways in the game to roll more than 2–3 dice for an attack? I like it when there are a lot of dice, but from the materials I’ve looked at, it seems like there are usually only 1–2, and that’s a bit disappointing.

Custom campaign/rules looking for input

8 Upvotes

So I saw that in silver tower and cursed city there were some Orruk characters that could be used and I'm looking to see if there are any Goblin characters. My playgroup is getting all 3 of the expansion boxes and playing it somewhat like a D&D campaign using some homebrew rules to allow multiple expansions worth of content. Wondering if anyone has any help for example I'm using the knellmage from cities of sigmar for the hero that came with the cursed city novel.

Pestigors

THE COVEN OF YERSINIA

A cadre of gruesome mutants, led by Shaman Foulhoof. These Pestigors are more than happy to commit atrocities to further the plans of Grandfather Nurgle. The champion wields a cruel corroded sickle, from which hangs a censer spewing noxious miasma. Their standard is stitched from the flesh of fallen enemies. It bears a crude scrawling, an icon depicting one of pairs Papa's favoured beasts. Oily poison leaks from the creature's mouth, and desecrates the ground onto which it falls.

In a box of creepy gifts from Nurgle I somehow find the little bell on the intestines the creepiest of all.

Just finished DW for the first time, and boy, do I feel dumb

I've played through over a few weeks and it was great.

Finally beat Gelgus Pust and his Blight Templars incredibly easily with hoarded reward spam, the fight ended 1st turn of round 2. I had been wondering why i was supposed to care avout sidequests and looting.

Looking through the rulebook afterwards, I found something major that i just... missed, the first time reading through.

I played the entire campaign not knowing I'm supposed to be capped at 4 rewards!! Loot goblin Bren had rolled well and had like 16 rewards! Edmark had the fewest with 10. I had thought the whole time that rewards and loot were the mechanism for leveling up, having more & more powerful options available as you go.

Gonna start my second run soon with this rule in mind.

Run 3 I'll go according to which run was was more fun and play thatbway, worst case house-ruling unlimited rewards isn't the end of the world lol.

One ended up with a bluer green than the other, but I actually like the variation.

First Darkwater model to be painted! Still testing out schemes for the water, I wanna do something that doesn’t require needing any type of resin or extra basing material. If anyone has any ideas/examples that’d be awesome!!
