Me and hellkite are still setting up our match! Weather's been too hot to sit at my desk for too long recently!

Is the dicelog down for anyone else?

yes it is down

Gah, dicelog! Don't do that!

We'll put matches on hold until it comes back up, or if it doesn't within a day or so, I'll find us a new service. Hopefully temporarily...

found this one - http://rolz.org/group#

put a slash in front of text then roll the dice seperate

log in with a user and a game name

try it try it you will see!

Yay its back up!

And so the dice gods giveth back!

Mordheimer is back up as well I realised today. Hooray for easy to search item/skill lists!

How are the games progressing? Peter Deschall has just jacked the Merchant's caravan and is likely driving it around laughing in a slightly maniacal manner whilst attempting to run over old ladies.

Duncoman and I have just finished a good game- a smattering of casualties on both sides and a joyride on my wagon. It was close, but the Merchants fate was sealed when we failed our first rout test. Even so, plenty of experience to go around and the Witch Hunters managed to procure an Ithilmar sword and a new horse from my supplies.

On the subject of supplies the Master Map is about to be sold so any final offers on that need to be in soon. In addition to that we're also selling some Dark Venom poison and a brace of pistols. Any offers would be gratefully received.

How does the merchanting work? intriguing..

During a warbands post game they may make an offer on items the Merchant Caravan have in their storage. The idea is that because Merchant's can often can get expensive and rare gear far more easily -and cheaper- than other warbands, that they can turn a profit on those goods. So far I've already sold most of my initial stock- only the poison left.

Greets - another question - Can I kill off my own heroes in downtime?

My leader is utterly useless - I want to kill him off. The best trait he has is as a bowman!

after having numerous heroes sniped in the last couple of games - and I thought I was doing quite well - big letdown

Can I opt to just drop him ?

Or do I just push him nakey into the front line to hope for a Dead result (but gain a lost for x3 instead)

if so...

can one of my posessed become a leader - which would allow me to purchase another possessed ! one leader(ex-posessed) + two posessed.

of course this will take a few games to rustle up enough cash and at the rate I am being hammered there will be little left.

as an aside -

If my steed survives - would the Merchants wish to buy it? or is there more profit in buy/sell items with a D6 add-on?

I may be wrong but for my understanding, you can't kill your own leader. The only way is exactly what you said, let your leader OOA in battle and hope for the Dead result. The next hero with the highest Leadership will become the leader. In case of tie, the hero with the highest EXP will be the leader. Even thought the hero is the "leader" now, he/she will remain the same "type" so in your example the answer is "No" because it only allow 2 Possessed unit.

thought so - watch out for that loincloth-clad baersark in the future! he could ge a dead result from the current game...

As the horses, the merchants are always open to cutting a deal, demanding on what offers are made...
