Re: New Careers?

I've started a compared index of careers. If anyone is willing to help completing it or correcting it, just ask me.

Re: Origins of the Gods.

That "fan" was Bryan Ansell and Rick Priestley, actually. Not really a "fan", nor two "fans" I would say. To answer to your thought, well, that isn't the case: all gods are not Chaos gods in disguise ! All gods come from realms of Chaos (more simply knows as warp), that...

Re: Origins of the Gods.

That's 40k, and AoS. this was never established in fantasy products, which establishes fairly thoroughly that divine magic is unrelated to the realm of chaos. I do not know AOS. I've never opened an AOS book nor read a line of it: I stopped following Warhammer Fantasy and other GW products around A...

Re: The Enemy Within to come...

but I think if/when Bretonnia comes up it will be the WFB version rather than the 1st edition WFRP version. If I'm recalling correctly, the version of WFRP1 is also the WFB version... the WFB3's up to Warhammer Armies . The version of Warhammer Armies , then, became WFRP2's... But WFB6 (or was it W...

Re: Origins of the Gods.

The influence of Lovecraft and of Call of Cthulhu over Warhammer is undeniable but it influenced Warhammer's mood and occult horror investigations roleplay scenarii. This influence isn't significant on the nature of Chaos Gods... Mythos's gods are asleep space creatures hidden in the beneath of Eart...

Re: Origins of the Gods.

things are a little more complex for the non-human races. the elven gods are essentially all representations of aspects of the elven psyche (yes, even the elves' gods exist to reflect how great the elves see themselves). I admit that I have a bit forgot how it worked, since I leaved Warhammer books...

Re: Post-TEW plans

I tend to disagree : after TEW, Warhammer heroes social status perfectly fit for political, diplomatic or military intrigues... EIF suggest to have such kind of adventures to follow TEW campaign, by the way and use the example of The Power Behind the Throne as something adapted to warhammer heroes' ...

I feel it might be fancier with a cross patty character (✠) rather than with a plus character (+).

Re: Enemy Within Volume Three announced!

You are perfectly right, although I feel the unity of place might be preserved if the place is the Sea of Claws (and a bit of the Sea of Chaos) -so parts of the adventure in Bretonnia are mainly set into Lyonnesse, Languille and Couronne- and the unity of action can be to if -and it is the case in t...

Re: Enemy Within Volume Three announced!

There was an official campaign, set just after The Enemy Within (in 2515 IC), announced in three parts (among whom, only the first one was published by Descartes Éditeur, the historical French publisher of WFRP1 who held rights from Games Workshop not only to translate Games Workshop, then Flame, th...

Re: Imperial Calendar

In The Enemy Within and in some other publications, it is said that at Hexenstag and Geheimnistag, the first day of each semester of the year, Mórrslieb always appears full. In Shadows over Bögenhafen , it is said that Mórrslieb appears to be close to be full (and eventually happen to be full), whic...

Re: Imperial Calendar

Thank you for this suggestion. Is Mórrslieb erratic enough to be able to be new moon one day, full moon th day after and half moon the day that follow? Can it go reverse? Before you shared your contribution, I thought about this system of weights: 1. roll 1d10 for each semester to get the number of ...

Re: New Careers?

Is there an exhaustive index, somewhere, of compared WFRP1, WFRP2, WFRP3 (I presume that there was careers in WFRP3, right?) and WFRP4 careers?
I mean, not only in the rulebook but also in other publications.

Re: The Enemy Within to come...

I wasn't aware of it. It strengthen my feelings. Thank you very much. There was a clear connection between Warhammer City and Power Behind the Throne . Would this sourcebook be a sourcebook on Middenheim that the (needed) connection would stay... Which is a good thing in my humble opinion. I wonder ...

Re: Enemy Within Volume Two announced! (And a gamemaster screen's too!)

It is indeed surprising that Power Behind the Throne's companion will not be Middenheim: City of Chaos... I presume it mean that the (needed) sourcebook on Middenheim would be part on an imperial cities series (together with the announced Altdorf sourcebook) rather than of The Enemy Within series. I...
