Armed vs. Unarmed

What bonusses do you get, if you attack an unarmed person with e.g. a sword? I'm guessing the -10 to hit for the opponent because of range, but I'm guessing there's more. Just can't find it in the rulebook. (I apologize for the question-assault. I'm starting up a high elf wizard solo campaign as GM ...

High Elf resistances

Do High Elves have any resistances to chaos or mutations? Can't find it in the rulebook.

Price of magick license?

What would a magic license from one of the collages cost in GCs for an apprentice wizard character?

Re: Where are you starting the PCs in the 4e Enemy Within?

I actually started my players in Nuln, way to the south. This way I got to run a tiny, action packed "tutorial"-scenario (Oldenhaller Contract) and a lore- heavy sailing trip up the Reik before arriving at the Coach and Horses Inn close to Altdorf. This way I got the players introduced to ...

Re: High Elf game suggestions?

My player's elf is a wizard apprentice fresh from Ulthuan, yes.

I love the ideas! I thank you so much. It will help put some believable flavour to the first Aldorf-sessions.

High Elf game suggestions?

I'm starting a solo game for a high elf wizard apprentice player. He's come fresh from Ulthuan to Aldorf, where he aims to pursue knowledge and research warpstone. I'm thinking of giving him an initial handicap when talking to NPCs in silver tier and lower (elvish snobbishness), to be removed with X...

Parry question

Another question, this time regarding parry: If my players are in unarmed combat, do they still use the "parry" skill to defend? Or do they use the "brawling" skill to defend? I.E. it sounds a little strange that my sword- weilding players can train parrying skills for 10 years, ...

(MINOR SPOILERS) Ideas for Rat Catcher solo campaign

I'll be GM'ing a solo campaign with a Rat Catcher main character soon. My thought was to have him start as a rat catcher with bonussed stats (to beef him up a little, as he's going solo) recently employed by Wahlund's Rat Catchers (from "A guide to Übersreik"). I want to start off with a r...

Free attack question

Does the defender get to make a "parry" throw, if an attacker gets a free attack against him? IE if the defender had a "stunned" comndition. Or if the defender has been knocked prone.

Re: Letter question (Enemy Within spoiler)

Spoiler
In 4th, how come Gideon kills Kuftos at the fake Law Firm in Bögenhafen? I thought that Gideon was clearing an obstacle for who it thinks is Kastor Lieberung. I thought this was a sign of at least an alliance to the Purple Hand , or a knowledge and sympathy for the Purple Hand

Re: Guild membership

As I said, I have a ton more on guilds in WFRP, including detailed systems on the economics, training, careers, etc. If there is interest, I could write it up in future. I would love for some more material on guilds. And perhaps even on criminal organisations. In fact, especially on criminal organi...

Letter question (Enemy Within spoiler)

Why is Etelka Herzen so friendly in her letter to Johannes Teugen?
Aren't the Purple Hand and the Red Crown rival cults?

I just want to know, so I have an explanation ready, if my players find out that much.

Re: Barge rules

Thanks for the great input!

By the way, is there some where a list of required crewmembers for each type of ship? Would it be like 2 deckhands and a rudderman for a medium sized barge?

Barge rules

Soon my adventurers will be sailing up and down the Reik in a barge of their own and I want the trips to be more than: "Ok, you passed your Sail test. Smooth sailing from here to Altdorf". I just bought Death on the Reik, partly because I thought those rules would be there. I havn't found ...
