Warhammer

[wolff96]

I've been reading the 'Zavant' and 'Felix and Gotrek' books lately. This got me interested enough in Warhammer that I picked up the Second Edition rulebook when I found it for half price at a local bookstore.

I love the feel of the world and its grittiness; there are definitely a few places that I think the rules could be clearer, though.

Rather than clutter up a mostly d20 board with a non-d20 game, I'm kind of curious about what some good sites are for more information and possibly discussion of the Warhammer Fantasy Game.

Also, are there any good modules out there that really capture the feel of Warhammer?

Check out the Black Industries web site (www.blackindustries.com). There are good things that are useful even for a D20 version of Warhammer.

I've recently started playing in a WHF game and have looked for any good site out there on it. I've found black industries to be the best source on it, there have been a few posts recently (past 4 months) on the game that you might want to try searching for and I'd do a few searches on rpg.net's forum to see if there's anything there about the game.

WHFR rules. I'm playing in a campaign currently, and I'm almost into my second career!

I like the module Karak Azgal. I ran it for about 3 months last year. I did change the combat rules to make it less bookkeeping for me and more heroic for the PCs.

WFRP will be next in line when I'm done running AoW. Looking forward to it.

I'm starting up a new WFRP campaign tonight with some newbies. It will be great fun to watch their reaction as they realize that this isn't anything like D&D. For a start, the party so far consists of a human charcoal burner, human vagabond, and an elf outlaw. So no magic, no one can read, and only one pc has any armor. And he's a wanted man (errr... elf).

You can download Fear the Wurst by wotc's own Mike Mearls from here-

http://www.warpstone.darcore.net/hhdown.html

You will have to do a bit of conversion as its for 1st edition wfrp, but it has everything wfrp is about- chaos cults, crazy troll slayers, back stabbing employers, and evil sausages.

www.windsofchaos.com is another good site (can't remember if it's linked to from Black Industries or not). Plenty of REALLY good looking maps, and some really vicious critical charts.
