[BTB] Some questions. Empty
PostSubject: [BTB] Some questions.   [BTB] Some questions. Icon_minitimeTue 31 Mar 2009 - 17:04

Hello everyone. I have started playing a BTB campaing with few of my mates. We have had a few quarrels about some of the rules and i was wondering if you guys could help us out.

1) Battle Monks of Cathay dont seem to have access to daggers is their equipment list. I assume this is a mistake and they can infact use daggers?


2) In the Celestial Protectorate -objective, when you have cathered 20 CP you get to send one of your heroes to the monastery to heal a serious injury and miss D3+1 games. Does that hero heal all of his serious injuries or just one at a time? Rules seem to state that only one injury is healed but I'm just making sure.


3) In the (special) scenario 9 "The Heist", the rules state that:

The attacking warband has to search the six
buildings/forests in the hope of uncovering the thief’s
hideout. If one of their Heroes moves inside one of
these buildings/forests and it had been empty before,
then the player rolls once on the following table.

What exactly does "had been empty before" mean? Does it mean that if there is a member of the opposing warband inside the building, then you cant search it? Or does it simply state that you cant search the same building over and over again? The wording is not very clear.


4) Marauders of Chaos warband rules state that:

Hired Swords: Most Hired Swords refuse to work for the powers of Chaos. Therefore a Marauder warband may only hire the following Hired Swords: Pit Fighters, Ogre Bodyguards, Warlocks (except marauder warbands that include members with the Mark of Arkhar) and Imperial Assassins.

The Cathayan Merchants rules state that:
May be Hired: Any warband which includes Humans or Dwarfs may hire a Cathayan Merchant.

So can Marauders of Chaos hire a Cathayan Merchant?


5) Can you fire a crossbow while on board a wagon and the wagon has moved? Technically the model himself has not moved and has time to take aim.


Thanks for any help!

Well, first off, welcome to TBMF! Glad you joined and play a BTB campaign. Now let's have a look at your questions...

Yes and no. Smile Battle Monks (ie Dragon Monks and Warrior Monks = the actual monks) are indeed not supposed to have/use/buy daggers. It wouldn't makes sense for them anyway. They can fight without penalties when bare handed and both hands count as individual weapons (+1 Attack). So there is no situation where a monk would ever want to purchase a dagger. In addition, we didn't like the thought of having these martial artists run around with little knives...

As for the Soldier Equipment list - now that is a mistake. Here I simply forgot to add the dagger.

Just as the rules say: "heal a permanent Serious Injury". It would say "heal all permanent Serious Injuries", if that was what was meant. Smile

Yes. That's what the phrase is meant for.

No, they can't. Marauders are not supposed to count as "humans" for this purpose.

Yes, that is how we play it. The original wagon rules from the Empire in Flames supplement don't say anything about this. The intuitive/logical/fair ruling here is to allow models to shoot their crossbows (since as you just said, the models didn't move themselves) and then apply a -1 modifier for "Shooting from a moving surface/ground". This modifier doesn't exist in the main rules but this seems to be the best solution. In fact, the Merchant's marksmen are supposed to be able to shoot from the caravan's wagon.
