Da Mob Roolz

Orcs enjoy fighting and looting more than anything else.

Because of this, an Orc’s life is spent in constant battle – either with

his fellow Orcs or some other enemy. With its wealth of opponents and

loot ready for the taking, Mordheim offers the perfect opportunity for

an aspiring Orc Warboss to prove himself. What follows are complete

rules, written by Mark Havener, for Orc & Goblin warbands.

Among the races of the

Warhammer world, none enjoy

the prospect of a good looting

more than Orcs and Goblins. For

this reason many Orc warbands have

been drawn to the city of Mordheim

and the wyrdstone that lies hidden there. Of

course, Orcs would much rather ambush

other warbands and take their wyrdstone than

collect it themselves, but their goals are the

same as any other warband – collect as much

treasure as possible! These traits are reflected

in the following special rules:

player’s turn, roll a D6 for each Henchman who is either an

Orc or a Goblin. A roll of 1 means that the warrior has taken

offense to something one of his mates has done or said. Do

not roll for models that are engaged in hand-to-hand combat

(they’re already scrappin’!). To find out just how offended the

model is, roll another D6 and consult the following chart to

see what happens:

D6 Result

1 “I ’Erd Dat!” The warrior decides that the nearest friendly

Orc or Goblin Henchman has insulted his lineage or personal

hygiene and must pay the price! If there is a friendly Orc or

Goblin Henchman or Hired Sword within charge reach (if

there are multiple targets within reach, choose the one

nearest to the mad model), the offended warrior will

immediately charge and fight a round of hand-to-hand

combat against the source of his ire. At the end of this round

of combat, the models will immediately move 1" apart and no

longer count as being in close combat (unless one of them

fails another Animosity test and rolls this result again). If

there are no friendly Orc or Goblin Henchmen or Hired

Swords within charge reach, and the warrior is armed with a

missile weapon, he immediately takes a shot at the nearest

friendly Orc or Goblin Henchman or Hired Sword. If none of

the above applies, or if the nearest friendly model is an Orc

Hero, the warrior behaves as if a 2-5 had been rolled on this

chart. In any case, the warrior in question may take no other

action this turn, though he may defend himself if attacked in

hand-to-hand combat.

2-5 “Wud Yoo Say?” The warrior is fairly certain he heard an

offensive sound from the nearest friendly Orc or Goblin, but

he’s not quite sure. He spends the turn hurling insults at his

mate. He may do nothing else this turn, though he may

defend himself if attacked in hand-to-hand combat.

6. “I’ll Show Yer!” The warrior imagines that his mates are

laughing about him behind his back and calling him silly

names. To show them up he decides that he’ll be the first one

to the scrap! This model must move as quickly as possible

towards the nearest enemy model, charging into combat if

possible. If there are no enemy models within sight, the Orc

or Goblin warrior may make a normal move immediately. This

move is in addition to his regular move in the Movement

phase, so he may therefore move twice in a single turn if you

wish. If the extra move takes the Orc or Goblin warrior within

charge reach of an enemy model, the warrior must charge

into close combat during his regular movement.

Distasteful Company. Many Hired Swords refuse to work for

Orcs, as they know that Orcs are just as likely to eat them as

fight alongside them. Orcs may only hire the following Hired

Swords: Pit Fighters, Ogre Bodyguards or Warlocks.

The lithe figures peered through the foliage at the

group in the clearing below. The pair of Wood Elf

scouts had been shadowing the Orcs for days,

attempting to determine if the small band of creatures

was an isolated warband or the scouting party of a

larger army. While most beings would not be able to

hear the guttural Orc speech from 100 yards away, the

keen ears of the Elves allowed the scouts to discern

what the creatures were saying. Most of it was

nonsense of course, squabbling over some scraps of

meat or pretty rocks, but the Elves patiently awaited the

words that would reveal the purpose of the foul

creatures.

Members of the band loitered about the clearing.

Goblins scampered around ceaselessly, attempting to

avoid the annoyed grasp of their larger Orc cousins. A

single Troll slowly wandered around aimlessly in a

small circle, digging a groove into the ground where it

had been dragging its feet for hours. As the Elves

watched, a solidly built Orc with blood covering his

arms up to the elbows approached a much larger Orc

who was seated on a primitive ‘throne’ of bones and

hides. The scouts had already determined that the

seated Orc was the leader of the motley group.

“How’d da huntin’ go?” asked the Orc Boss.

“Ran inta some ’umies. All dey ’ad was some black

rocks.”

“Where’s da loot den?” asked the Orc Boss. “All ’umies

got loot!”

“Dat’s what I asked ’em!” replied the Big ’Un, “Dey

tried to tell me dat da rocks WAS da loot! Den after I

leans on ’em a bit, dey tells me dat some big boss

’umies pay loads for dis stuff!”

“Loads?”

“Dat’s what dey sed,” the Big ’Un replied, disbelief

plain on his face, “Dey told me da rocks wuz from dis

place called More-ty...Mordh...Mork...well, dey drew us

dis map.”

The larger Orc grabbed the scrap of parchment his

lieutenant had been holding and scanned it for a few

seconds, then began barking orders. Goblins squealed

and ran about the encampment, frantically packing up

the warband’s gear. Four huffed and strained as they

picked up their leader on his throne and carried him

aloft. The Orc warriors were much more composed

about the whole affair, and calmly packed up their kits

and prepared for the journey ahead.

The scouts faded back into the forest, secure in the

knowledge that these Orcs were no threat. They too

had heard stories about the human city that had

treasure supposedly lying on the streets for easy

picking. But they had also heard other stories about the

city. The Orcs would be dead within a fortnight.

Heroes

1 Orc Boss

80 gold crowns to hire

An Orc Boss is a tough and brutal warrior, who will throw his

lads into any fight that he thinks he can profit from. He is the

strongest, toughest and most barbaric member of the

warband and if any of his Boyz think otherwise, the band may

soon find itself with one less member!

Weapons/Armour: An Orc Shaman may be armed with

weapons chosen from the Orc equipment list. An Orc Shaman

may never wear armour.

0-2 Orc Big ‘Uns

40 gold crowns to hire

Orc society is a savage hierarchy where only the toughest

survive and rise through the ranks (often atop the bodies of

other challengers). Big ’Uns are such rising stars, and they

carry out the orders of the Orc Boss. If the Boss ever falls, it

is up to the Big ’Uns to decide on a new leader (usually

through personal combat).

SPECIAL RULES

Leader: Any warrior within 6" of the Orc Boss may use his

Leadership characteristic when taking Leadership tests.

0-1 Orc Shaman

40 gold crowns to hire

Orc Shamans are outcasts from Orc society. They are gifted by

the Orc gods Gork and Mork with powers they can neither

understand nor completely control. Many join roaming Orc

warbands where they are no longer shunned for their

abilities, but respected for them.

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld

Weapons/Armour: Big ’Uns may be equipped with weapons

and armour chosen from the Orc equipment list.

Henchmen (Bought in groups of 1 - 5)

Orc Boyz

25 gold crowns to hire

Orc Boyz are savage and tough. They fear nothing that they

can get their bare hands on, though they are even more

ignorant and superstitious than most other beings in the

Warhammer world. They form the core of any Orc warband.

SPECIAL RULES

Movement: Cave Squigs do not have a set Movement

characteristic but move with an ungainly bouncing stride. To

represent this, when moving Squigs, roll 2D6 for the distance

they move. Squigs never run and never declare charges.

Instead, they are allowed to contact enemy models with their

normal 2D6" movement. If this happens, they count as

charging for the following round of close combat, just as if

they had declared a charge.

Minderz: Each Cave Squig must always remain within 6" of a

Goblin Warrior, who keeps the creature in line. If a Cave

Squig finds itself without a Goblin within 6" at the start of its

Movement phase, it will go wild. From that point on, move

the Squig 2D6" in a random direction during each of its

Movement phases. If its movement takes it into contact with

another model (friend or foe), it will engage the model in

hand-to-hand combat as normal. The Cave Squig is out of the

Orc & Goblin player’s control until the end of the game.

Not Orcs: See Goblin Warriors entry for rules.

Animals: Cave Squigs are animals of a sort and so do not gain

experience.

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld

Weapons/Armour: Boyz may be equipped with weapons and

armour chosen from the Orc equipment list.

SPECIAL RULES

Animosity: Orc Boyz are subject to the rules for Animosity

(see Special Rules for details).

Goblin Warriors

15 gold crowns to hire

Goblins are often used as cannon fodder (as well as a food

source in lean times!) by their larger Orc cousins. They are

usually not as well equipped as Orc Boyz, having to make do

with whatever the Orcs do not want or cannot use.

0-1 Troll

200 gold crowns to hire

Trolls are not intelligent enough to recognize the value of

gold, but large amounts of food can often instill a certain

loyalty in them.

Weapons/Armour: Goblins may be armed with weapons and

armour chosen from Goblin equipment list.

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld

631543134

Weapons/Armour: Trolls do not require weapons to fight but

often carry a big club. In any event, Trolls can never be given

weapons or armour.

SPECIAL RULES

Animosity: Goblin Warriors are subject to the rules for

Animosity (see Special Rules for details). Note: A Goblin

Warrior who fails his Animosity test and rolls a 1 for the result

will never charge an Orc Henchman, though he will still use

any missile weapons to attack as normal. Goblins are far too

afraid of Orcs to challenge them individually.

Not Orcs: Orcs don’t expect much from non-Orcs, and are

therefore not unsettled if Goblins or Cave Squigs break or get

cut down in battle. In fact, they expect as much from these

weaklings! Therefore, when testing to see if an Orc Warband

needs to take a Rout test, each Goblin Warrior or Cave Squig

taken out of action only counts as half a model. Therefore, a

band of 5 Orcs and 10 Goblins (15 models) would only have

to take a test if 4 models fell (4 Orcs or 8 Goblins, or some

combination thereof ).

Runts: Goblins may gain experience but if they happen to

roll ‘That Lad’s got talent’ they are immediately killed by their

Orc overlords for becoming too ‘mouthy’ (remove the Gobbo

from the roster).

SPECIAL RULES

Fear: Trolls are frightening monsters which cause fear .

Stupidity: A Troll is subject to the rules for stupidity .

Regeneration: Trolls have a unique physiology that allow

them to regenerate wounds. Whenever an enemy successfully

inflicts a wound on a Troll roll a D6, on a result of 4 or more

the wound is ignored and the Troll is unhurt. Trolls may not

regenerate wounds caused by fire or fire-based magic. Trolls

never roll for Injury after a battle.

Dumb Monster: A Troll is far too stupid to ever learn any

new skills. Trolls do not gain experience.

Always Hungry: A Troll requires an upkeep cost. This

upkeep represents the copious amounts of food that must be

fed to the Troll in order to keep him loyal to the warband.

The warband must pay 15 gold crowns after every game in

order to keep the Troll. If the warband lacks the gold to pay

the upkeep, the Boss has the option of sacrificing two Goblin

Warriors or Cave Squigs to the Troll in lieu of buying food

(Trolls eat nearly anything). If this fee is not paid (either in

gold or in warband members) the Troll gets hungry and

wanders off in search of food.

Vomit Attack: Instead of his normal attacks, a Troll can

regurgitate its highly corrosive digestive juices on an

unfortunate hand-to-hand combat opponent. This is a single

attack that automatically hits with a Strength of 5 and ignores

armour saves.

0-5 Cave Squigs

15 gold crowns to hire

Goblins raise the deadly Cave Squigs. These creatures are a

curious blend of animal and fungus, and are composed

mostly of teeth, horns, and a nasty temperament.

Weapons and Armour: Big gob and brutality! Cave Squigs

never use or need weapons or armour.

Orc special equipment

Squig Prodder

15 gold crowns

Availability: Common (Goblins only)

This item is a long pole with a trio of spikes at the end.

It is used by Goblin Squig herders to keep their

livestock in line. Cave Squigs will recognize a Squig

prodder and automatically give the bearer more

respect, as they’ve all been on its pointy end more

than once! To represent this, a Goblin with a Squig

prodder can keep all Cave Squigs within 12" from

going wild, instead of the normal 6" (see the Minderz

special rule under the Cave Squig entry). In addition,

a Squig prodder is treated exactly like a spear in

hand-to-hand combat.

Mad Cap Mushrooms

25 gold crowns

Availability: Common (if warband includes Goblins)

Mad Cap Mushrooms (see the rules in the Mordheim

rulebook for more information on Mad Cap

Mushrooms) are a necessity for someone wishing to

wield a ball and chain (see below). Fortunately for Orc

warbands, Mad Cap Mushrooms are cultivated by the

Night Goblins of the Worlds Edge Mountains, and they

are much more willing to trade these to other

Goblins. Though normally a rare item in Mordheim,

Mad Cap Mushrooms are a common item that cost

25 gold crowns for an Orc warband that includes one

or more Goblins. A Goblin may take his mushrooms at

the start of any turn.

Therefore, any hit that successfully wounds will do

1D3 wounds instead of 1.

Random: The only way to wield a Ball and Chain is to

swing it around in large circles, using your body as a

counter-weight. Unfortunately this is not a very

controllable fighting style, and as soon as he starts

swinging his Ball and Chain, a warrior starts to lose

control. The first turn he starts swinging the Ball and

Chain, the model is moved 2D6" in a direction

nominated by the controlling player. In his

subsequent Movement phases, roll a D6 to determine

what the model does:

D6 Result

1 The model trips and strangles himself with the

chain. The model is taken out of action . When rolling

for Injury after the game, a roll of 1-3 means the

model is out permanently, instead of the normal 1-2.

2-5 The model moves 2D6" in a direction nominated

by the controlling player.

6 The model moves 2D6" in a random direction. If the

player owns a Scatter dice (available from Games

Workshop stores), roll that to determine direction. If

not, then roll a D6: 1 – Straight Forward, 2-3 – Right,

4-5 – Left, 6 – Straight Back.

If the Ball and Chain wielding model moves into

contact with another model (friend or foe), he counts

as charging into close combat, and will engage in

close combat until his next Movement phase.

Opponents wishing to attack a Ball and Chain

wielding model suffer a To Hit penalty of -1, as they

must dodge the whirling ball to get close enough to

strike. The Ball and Chain wielder cannot be held in

close combat and will automatically move even if he

starts the Movement phase in base contact with

another model. If the model moves into contact with

a building, wall, or other obstruction, he is

automatically taken out of action . In addition, a ball

and chain wielding Goblin is much too busy trying to

control the spinning weapon to worry about what

others are saying about him behind his back, so

ignores the special rules for Animosity.

Cumbersome: Because the Ball and Chain is so

heavy, a model equipped with one may carry no other

weapons or equipment. In addition, only a model

under the influence of Mad Cap Mushrooms has the

strength to wield a ball and chain.

Unwieldy: The great weight of the Ball and Chain can

easily tear ligaments or pull a wielder’s arms out of

their sockets. While someone under the influence of

Mad Cap Mushrooms will not notice such effects,

when the drug wears off he will be in great pain. To

represent this, at the end of the battle the controlling

player must roll for Injury for each model that used a

Ball and Chain, just as if the model had been taken

out of action . If the model was actually taken out of

action normally, just roll once for Injury – there is no

need to make a second roll.

Ball and Chain

15 gold crowns

Availability: Common (Goblins only)

This is a huge iron ball with a chain attached, used by

the dreaded Night Goblin Fanatics to deal out

whirling death. Enormously heavy, it can only be used

when combined with Mad Cap Mushrooms.

Incredible Force: Because the Ball and Chain is so

heavy, normal armour does very little to protect

against it. No armour saves are allowed against

wounds caused by a Ball and Chain. In addition, any

hit from a Ball and Chain is very likely to take off

someone’s head (or at least break some ribs!).
