Ithilmar swords and henchmen questions

Hi Everybody,

I have a couple logistical questions.

1.) If you have 2 Ithilmar Swords does your initiative increase by 2?

2.) Can any henchmen type form a group or are groups designated?
For example, in the Undead list Ghouls come in groups of 5.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

With 2 Ithilmar swords you get +1 Int on both attacks.
If you model got 1 attack on profile and Int 3, you get with 1 Ithilmar sword 1 attack@ Int 4 and 1 attack@ Int 3. with 2 Ithilmar swords both attack is Int 4. With Ithilmar weapons you dont get + Int on the profile, but to the attack.

Not sure what you mean with question 2, but in your undead example. Ghouls can be hired in groups of 1-5, but if you like (and it is advised) you can hire them in 1 man groups. I cant remember if they er 0-5, but if then ofc you cant have more then that.

Hope that help, if not ask again.

You can hire 5 ghouls in one group, or two, three, four, five groups if you want !
It just tells that one ghouls group can not include more than 5 ghouls Smile

For Ithilmar swords, Skavenslayer answered you Wink

You just have +1 Initiative with the sword's Attack... If you have a pistol and an ithilmar sword, the pistol's Attack is resolved with normal Initiative Smile

Thanks for the help on question #1.
Sorry about the confusion in question #2. I forgot to specify, I didn't understand the effect of experience on groups in a campaign, but I found it on page 65.
