Oldhammer Quest.

On the 18th of this month I have invited the local Oldhammerers of OGRE (Oldhammer Gaming Ring East-Anglia, we love our cheese us Oldhammerers) to join me for a delve into the bowels of the Oldhammer world.  I’m currently bashing together the additional rules and guidelines needed to run 3rd ed as a dungeon bash/ adventure game and will post my efforts up here when done.

In the meantime here are some shots of the terrain the action will take place on:



And here is a link to the various adventurers who are stepping forward to brave all the terrors of the dark.

    2. Lol, good call, thanks for the link. Their shop is down for maintenance sadly so I will have to wait.

    3. Try DwarvenForge EU. The prices are not cheap but you get what you pay for I guess. UK distributor (Richard from Other world games) so postage is reasonable.

  3. Looking forward to the report! Looks like we are getting some spiffy characters around the blogosphere. Also interested in the rules you come up with.

  5. I want my Wizard to arrive from the mail portal so I can get him ready, getting twitchy in the paint brush department!

    1. I have vintage lead already painted if he arrives too late.

  6. This is going to be good. So I guess I should bring the Ranger type?

    1. Ranger or religious type.

      Antipixi is bringing an Elf to the party but you can never ever have too many bows!

    2. Bring what ever you want mate, nothing mounted though, that wouldn't work.

    1. If you run out of time let me know what you want to play and I'll see what I have painted.

  8. A very cool idea!
    Any hopes that you might eventually post your rule-thoughts on running such a thing?

    1. Will do for sure. Just extra bits to work thieves and clerics into the mix and to make up for the lack of wounds in WHFB without messing up the mechanics.
