Scenario 095 - The Bridal Run By Archeonicus.

Transcribed & edited

by The Mordheimer.

This will be a feast! Fred (fill in the name of the defending warband leader) will go

and pick up the bride, she will be the main attraction for the feast. Fred will bring

along a lot of goods and guests. All in all it is so much that he probably will need

three transport wagons. A road fit for wagons follows a route across a ruined

territory. (Ruins 2’x3’, with a slow bending road roughly through the middle). Fred

has also a Best Man in his party (Pitfighter) who finds it a great honor he is chosen.

Across the ruins his bride is waiting for…

Terrain

Each player takes it in turn to place a piece of terrain, either a ruined building, tower,

or other similar item. As last, one side is dedicated the wharf. We suggest that the

terrain is set up within an area roughly 4’ x 4’.

Setup

Defenders : The Defenders start on one end of the road. The Baggage train must

start on the absolute edge of the road, and all other models must be within 6” of the

road. The goal is to get them off-board, either on the opposite site or to his north or

south, but on the opposite side of the playing area.

Attackers : After the Defenders have set up, it’s time to set up the Attackers. The

Attackers may set up anywhere on the table, but not within 6” of any Defenders,

unless it’s behind an impassable obstacle. They have to stay away at least 6” form

friendly warbands.

Warbands

Defenders : one warband with a three wagons these will be armed according to the

number of opposing warbands. Two opposing warbands means shooters in 2 carts.

Being in the cart counts as having cover, none of the passenger or drivers are

armored.

Extra models: Pittfighter, wagons consisting of a cart with driver (cannot leave, will

not fight) and 2 passengers (cannot leave but will shoot BS3) armed accordingly;

Roll D6 per passenger: 1-3 bow,4 longbow, 5 crossbow (max 2), 6 blunderbuss (max

1).

Attackers : Warbands as is.

Special Rules

Rout Tests : The Defenders are fully aware of the vast importance of their mission.

They have resolved themselves to a do-or-die situation. Therefore, they do not suffer

from All Alone, and will not take a Rout Test until they have sustained 50%

casualties. The Attackers will take Rout Tests as normal at 25%.

Moving the baggage train : Regardless of the caravan’s mode of transport (slaves

pulling carts, pony-driven, pushed by Rat Ogres), they will move up to 6” per turn on

the road. They cannot run or march. Off-road the caravan moves at half rate (up to

3” per turn).

Shooting at the baggage train : Roll to hit, then, for each hit, roll a D6: 1-4 hits the

cart, 5-6 hits the beast. Each beast, regardless of what it is, has the following

statistics: Weapon Skill 2, Toughness 3 with 1 Wound and no armor save. Even

though this is Mordheim, do not use the Injury chart for the beast. It is removed

from battle as soon as it’s wounded. If the cart is rolled then there is a 5+ chance

you hit a passenger, if wounded they will be 1-4 Knocked down, 5-6, Stunned. Or

use a D8, 1-5, the cart, 6-7 the beasts, 8 the passengers.

Baggage train in Hand to Hand combat : In combat, treat baggage trains as two

separate targets, the cart itself or the beast that pulls it. Any model in contact with

both cart and beast may decide which to attack. The carts are automatically hit and

have Toughness 5 with 3 Wounds. The cart has no hand to hand offensive

capabilities and causes NO impact hits. The Baggage Train is not pinned by hand-to-

hand and may move out of combat. This represents the panicking beast surging

forward!

Moving the baggage train without beasts : If the beast is killed, the Defenders may

use models on foot to move the cart (this may be the passengers, but then they

cannot shoot anymore, they count as having normal mercenary warrior stats and do

not fight back). At least three models are needed to attain half the normal speed for

the models carrying it, with no marching. Two models may lug the cart half speed

-1”. One model may not move a cart at all. He’s just not strong enough.

Starting the Game

The Attackers go first, but they may not charge during the first turn. This represents

the hidden Attackers springing out of concealment and ambushing the caravan.

Ending the Game

The game ends when either the defender gets a set number of carts of the table (see

Goals (i.e. defender gets two carts of the table and then wants to quit, he could go

for three, but does not need to). Routing of one side does end the game also, then

look to the goals Table for Rewards below.
