Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (recruiting over)

[Xsesiv]

"We have nothing to eat except Ratmen corpses! At least we have ale on tap, so we can die happy! Uh...it's Dwarven ale." And there is no cannon.

[littlebottom]

tilmann smiles as he hears mention of dwarvan ale, do you have some better armour i could use? (im guessing the answer is no but its worth a shot as im going for the "warrior prest" career in the ToS)

and fetch me some ale... im going to need it.

when he has a moments privacy he kneels down on one knee, hammer by his side and gives a short prayer to sigmar, and not the usual kind sigmar... you have sent me to kill these plauges upon our lands known as chaos... here and now, is this my challenge? is this to see weather i am truely worth to be known as a hero? surely you can help save, all these devoted followers of you in their hour of need... any way possible, please help us....

[Xsesiv]

The ale is duly brought, and a set of gromril plate armour is in the library as a statue. Sigmar isn't about to act directly, but to show he is behind you, he delivers another mark to you. (d100)[1] You get a vision of a light in an underground tunnel.

Mark - Stubborn - You singlemindedly pursue Sigmar's cause, -5 Int.

[littlebottom]

(holy... a full plate set? any thing special about it or is it just a straight "full-plate" set?)

tilmann (i assume) recognizes he has a new mark. and smiles slightly, knowing sigmar is behind him, and sees the light in an underground tunnel...

hmmm does this symbolize the sewers? or perhaps a secret escape tunnel? tilmann ponders. does anybody know of a secret tunnel around here? if not tilmann heads to the main sewers entrance. bringing some extra npcs to help.

[Xsesiv]

Gromril plate is always Best Quality, and confers APs of 6, which is one of only a few exceptions to the normal maximum of 5.

A secretary takes you down to the basement, where there is a tunnel-shaped cellar behind the wall full of the more grisly extremes of Sigmar; goblin skulls, Slaanesh-worshipper's favourite parts, and strangest of all, a whole stuffed Ratman standing on a keg of gunpowder.

[littlebottom]

a keg of gunpoweder you say? (is this real gunpowder, or just an empty barrel supposed to be gunpoweder?)

i also hope the armour is engraved with various symbols of sigmar? (if not ill do that later )

[Xsesiv]

It's real gunpowder.

The armour's not engraved, but you'll need something unbelievably hard to scratch gromril. Ithilmar, more gromril, warpstone or diamond will do it.

[littlebottom]

this gunpowder, can i use it? and is there any more?

the armour sounds hard, but does it just have normal full-plate AP? or would i have to wear my leather underneath to make it to its UBAR AP?

[Xsesiv]

Full gromril plate includes mail and leather layers anyway.

The man nods and helps you haul the gunpowder up the stairs. "I hope you have a plan."

A glowing green ball shoots from the cannon, smashing into the artificially-forested Taalite temple. The Ratmen re-aim at the Grungni temple and knock a piece of Dwarven architecture free. The kitchens of the Esmereldan temple are choked out by gas from a glass globe ired from the cannon, but no-one comes out.

[littlebottom]

the plan is to destroy that thing, if we dont, well, they will breach us easily in no time, at least if thats destroyed we have time to co-ordinate and attack. tilmann takes the barrel and looks at the warp-cannon. is there anyway we could propel this to get it to that cannon? we will also need a good archer who can use a flaming arrow.

[Xsesiv]

"The Myrmidian temple has a museum of siege engines. I reckon we could use a cat-a-plut if we arsked nicely."

[littlebottom]

(and how do we get to them to ask? are they within the defended walls aswell?)

[Xsesiv]

You're going to have to do a bit of sneaking.

[littlebottom]

hmmm shame the stuffed skaven wasnt a rat ogre, otherwise i would of used it as a suit lol

and how do you propose we get there? is there a tunnel connecting them and us? or do we walk out into the streets and get swamped by skaven?

tilmann also ponders the possibility of using an arrow with a message attatched, does the distance allow?

[Xsesiv]

Distance does allow and the message is sent over hitting a Myrmidian Initiate in the leg. The war God temples send out frenzied Ulricans who clear a path for you to drag the gunpowder across, but a Skaven fires a Warplock Jazzail at you on the way past.

(d100)[51] average BS 42

If he misses, there is a 25% chance he hits the keg.

(d100)[24]

[Xsesiv]

The keg blows to pieces dealing you a damage 6 hit. (1d10+6)[16]

If you die and spend an FP, you awaken in the new thread, a link I will put up in a minute.

[littlebottom]

i dont swear much but.... THANK F*CK I PUT MY WOUNDS UP i have 1 left (as i guess toughness and armour doesnt count in that damage?)

[Xsesiv]

Toughness yes, armour half as effective.

[littlebottom]

in that case, i have 9 wounds left.
