    New GM. Order of the scenarios and houserules.

    captaincutlass replied to player320064 's topic in WFRP Gamemasters
    Not sure if this been already said but the main houserule that I totally dig is that any social action that says "you influence the target" also deals one shame to the target.

    New GM and no dice,need help

    gameogre43 replied to gameogre43 's topic in WFRP Gamemasters
    Thanks again! While I don't have the book any longer I will still keep a eye on the game and see what happends. If the dice become avialable at the same time I happen to have some extra cash I can see buying it all again. Two of my players were really bummed out about the whole deal as they really loved Warhammer 2nd edition. So my guess is this isn't goodbye as

    So I didn't like EfaE so decided to write a similar story with a fair few alternatives, less NPC's the manage, different chaos god and so forth. My current group composition is:Dwarf gambler, High Elf thief, Human Mercenary, Human Initiate of Sigmar, with an Apprentice Wizard if the Grey Order joining next session. Overall the group has a nice balance, with a theme of being sneaky, shadow wizard, a theif and a

    Emirikol replied to Rat Catcher 's topic in WFRP Gamemasters
    I've been Gm/DM since I started gaming in '81. Here are a couple things that I always keep in mind..and they oftentimes don't have to do with the scenario, but have to do with just running a good game (first) and scenario design (next):1. Establish expectations at the beginning of EVERY campaign and the beginning of every game. Make it a habit. "Here's how you run the game..."2. Always

    Hello all, I started WHFRP maybe 3 months back but then was sidetracked a bit to play DND 4th since one player was very against playing WHFRP, I have since convinced him to play lol.I have 7 Players (yes I know its insane, but I am not sure who to cut and would feel bad to do so)+ I am slightly confused on Attacks, if a Character High Elf Sword Master with Strength 3 attacks

    Thanks this helps a lot, I am not sure what got me thinking it was a opposed action and am glad to learn otherwise that makes it alot more sensible.

    I've been using 23x20 easel pads for 4E D&D, and will likely use it for things like this too (ABout $1 per sheet). Not that the dimensions are critical, but a scale model (scaled to the carboard character mini's) would help visualize where people are. If a combat where to break out inside the lodge, I'd treat moving room to room as being a maneuver and anyone in a room is

    This is indeed a great question. I got the gitzman map so I was going to draw the house map without the clues presents and have them go off of it.

    Looking for a sanity check in Warhammer? Dangerous territory my friend….sanity is in short supply here :-P

    Thanks everyone for the tips, and thanks Jay for looking over what I had planned. A little more background, this is my first time as GM/DM for any RPG, and last year was my first time playing a tabletop game in general. So part of my tenitiveness here is because I don't have much to draw on yet. I played with the group through the Gathering Storm, and then offered to swap with the

    Domino25 said: I think actually TEW is a good campaign to start with. There is plenty of stuff in the book to help you drive the story, so if you're short of ideas, there are lots of hints and examples. A lot of it set in human cities, and with fairly mundane combatants, so you don't need to get a handle on all sorts of wierd rules and creatures. There is a lot

    Ralzar replied to cegorach 's topic in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay
    This is basically how I have stuff organized. I know others have all kinds of fancy stuff for this, but I have been doing fine with some rubber bands for cards and some plastic bags for chips etc. 1: Split all the card decks into their separate kinds. 2: Action Cards: Make sure you do not mix NPC actions and PC actions. NPC actions are usually easily recognizable by being marked with suggested monsters. 3

    I put all the (PC) Action Cards in 9-pocket pages in binders. One binder has all the blessings, one has all the spells, and the last binder has all the other Actions. For the spell and blessing binders, I further sorted them by order or religion, and then rank. For the binder with all the other actions, I sorted them by the relevant skill, and stuck little tabs on the pages so it's

    I'll try to gather links for everything up, but here is some basic advice for organization of ALL. THAT. STUFF. I'm going to assume a worst case scenario where in a gleefully mad bit of unboxing you unpunched everything and mixed all of the cards into one massive pile.

    Also, for actually running the game, I would go against the grain and say that you should really give all of the rules a shot before dismissing them or houseruling. Here is some general advice on things. The funny diceYour players are your friends. Ask them what they think should happen. As a general rule, have the players say what the good things that happen are, while the GM says bad things. Don't be
