Re: Looking for an encounter idea

Thanks for your ideas. I like them a lot. Alas, I haven't read enough Moorcock, so don't know Elric of Melnibone.

Re: Call of Cthulhu rpg adventure 'Amongst the Ancient Trees' using WFRP 2e

If you want to introduce the players to something uniquely Warhammer, then pick something that will occur in later scenarios as well. That makes it unique and useful. What use is showing something unique, only to not have it appear for the rest of the campaign? "Look, this world has Fimir! And ...
