Steg, where do you live again? I mean, specifically? I think we don't live that far apart. I'd be okay with going to you and playing Mordheim with you. I've got a conquistador-themed warband in the works. If I ever finish it.

Leeuwarden, but I don't have any scenery (yet, and seeing how my finances will go not for a long time either). But you are always welcome to drop by!

Rules question: if a model is charged by a fear-causer while already in combat, does it take a fear test? Several people told me no, but I can't see anything to support that. The FAQ even says you have to take multiple fear tests if charged by multiple fear-causers at once.

I could have gotten it wrong, but it does make sense that no would be the answer.   The logic is that you are immune to fear while in combat [this is also the logic for why you don't need to take a fear test at the start of every round]

Speaking of henchmen groups: if a group starts as just one guy, can you still add new henchmen to that group later? Or can you only add henchmen up to the original number of the group?

You can always add more guys up to your warband maximum.   It is a useful tactic to have many different henchmen groups at the start and add henchmen to the groups that get useful advances.   Though it is more expensive and difficult to add henchmen to experienced groups.

Indeed, but maximum is 5 for every single henchmen group.

Mordheim needed an option to have a "generic" setting - gangs fighting for control of "turf" in a city, or small bands of brigands controlling highways etc. It wouldn't be too difficult to change the background without really changing the rules.

The Empire in Flames setting is all about 'small bands of brigands'.  As is the Nemesis Crown, Lustria, Border Town Burning and so on.

The newer Mutiny in Marienburg is set in, well, Marienburg.  Gangs and lawmen, merchants, etc fight over 'turf' in a city. 

In general Mordheim the game system is very flexible and if you can think of a place or environment that you would like to campaign in, chances are someone else has written a set of rules for it or you can just do it.  I personally never got into Mordheim the City of the Damned, but I love Lustria, Khemri, Sartosa.  Our current campaign is set in Al-Haikk.

If I knew that a month ago you would have been attending the Eurobash! So next year you're one of the attendees :)

That might pose a problem then... as at the moment my window frames and windows are being replaced..

"TC" stands for Town Cryer, the Mordheim magazinette. I guess someone will eventually upload them all somewhere into the www. Now some are a bit hard to find and/or costly.

Actually that's already been done. I can point people in the right direction if they PM

Me too. There's even tweaked rulesets. I think one of them came from this site, in fact. At any rate, my warband is being assembled. So harpy. Still need to figure out a conversion for a great weapon, though.
