“Warbands”

These Scenarios and Campaign systems are meant to be used with

“Tom Weiss Chaos in Carpathia houserules Part 2: Scenarios and

Campaign System”

You can download both parts at

http://www.gh.tag-web.de

Introduction

You’ll need a copy of “Chaos in Carpathia” by Four-Color-Figures (2007) to use these

houserules. A copy of “Chaos in Cairo” by the same publisher is also a useful addition as a

few traits used in these houserules are taken from these rules. You can find both rulesets as

hardcopy or .pdf versions in various online shops.

This supplement for Chaos in Carpathia isn’t an on official addition to the game but just a

selection of house rules our gaming group is using. The idea behind these rules is to offer

gamers a bigger choice of warbands as well as a set of working scenarios and a simple

campaign system.

Carpathia Rules Changes

2

The playtesting of the alternative warbands made a few changes of the basic game rules

necessary. I’ve tried to keep these changes as few as possible.

These lists are build around 350GBP Warbands.

1. Spotting models to charge them (replaces the spotting rules at page 10)

If a character wants to charge a model that is not in LOS it has to pass a TN3 Mnd plus Sharp

Senses test.

This test is raised from TN2 in the rules to TN3 to make it more difficult to charge characters you can’t

see. This affects mainly combat specialists who already have quite good Mnd + Sharp Senses abilities

and who’s appearance out of nowhere should be limited. The more terrain you have the more difficult it

is to get a line of shooting, allowing easy charges against anybody puts the game too much into favour of

fast and hard hitting combat characters.

2. Spotting hidden characters (replaces hiding rules at page 12)

To shoot at a hidden character in LOS you need a opposed Mnd vs Agl roll as in the rules.

To charge a hidden character you need to pass a TN3 Mnd test first. If this test is passed you

can perform the charge but don’t get the +2D charge bonus. To get the +2D charge bonus you

have to win a need a opposed Mnd vs Agl roll as above in addition to the check to spot the

hidden character.

If any test fails you can still perform any other action.

Note you still get a bonus for hiding in cover as per the original rules.

Sample:

Karl is hidden behind a building. The werewolf is moving around the other side of the

building. He decides to sniff out if some prey is available and tests TN3 Mnd + Sharp Senses

to spot Karl. He rolls his dice and succeeds; now he’s aware of Karl but he still isn’t sure

where exactly his victim is positioned. To see if its senses are superior to Karl’s agility both

make a opposed test and Karl wins the contest. The Werewolf decides to go for the charge

and moves on, as he’s not aware of Karl’s exact position he looses the charge bonus but blood

lust and confidence in it’s abilities still drive the monster towards the poor human.

3. The rule of DN6 Regardless of bonuses and special abilities the maximum DN you can get in combat is DN6.

Everything above DN6 is lost.

Sample:

Klaus takes a shot against the werewolf using his modern rifle and silver bullets. Marksman

he is he score with 6 goals vs. 3 goals defence. His DN is 6 (base modern rifle) +1 for silver

+1 for a perfect hit. Total is DN8 but only DN6 is applied as it is the maximum you can get

out of an attack.

The reason behind this rule is to keep extreme damage at bay. A DN6 hit is enough to take most

characters out of action, everything above DN6 is overkill. Whilst the above sample is in favour of the

werewolf, a charge by a creature like this usually inflicts a DN7 hit resulting in 4 vitality loss to

characters with a DR Pool of 5. To give characters a chance of luck or fate to survive any hit does

increase the fun and excitement of the game.

Warband Lists Special Rules

Female Victim Special The female victim is the wife/ daughter/ fiancée of one of the main characters of a Monster

Hunter or Gypsy Warband. She always attracts the interest of any evil warbands (Vampires,

Nosferatu, Mad Doctor, Werewolves) who have to kidnap her. Good warbands don’t kidnap

female victims of course.

The female victim should be attached to a guarding character. Any character is allowed to

guard her unless he’s the cheapest character in the warband based on the total GBP cost.

Aminal characters of course don’t count.

As long as the female victim is within 6” of her guarding character she is relatively safe. She

is moved together with her guard by the player of the main character’s warband and can be

placed anywhere within 6” of the guarding character after his or her activation is complete.

The female victim can’t be attacked as long as she is with her guarding character unless he’s

pinned in close combat, i.e. not free to leave close combat.

The evil warband can capture the female victim by charging her. To capture her just move

into base contact and declare the attack, no dice are rolled the kidnapping is automatic. It’s no

possible to capture her back during a game.

If the guarding character dies the female victim gets a standard activation, she can move up to

10” each turn but can’t do anything else.

Master of Evil Special A Vampire Lord, Loup Garou and Nosteratu Master are so called “Masters of Evil”. These

characters are subject to special victory condition according to the scenario rules.

3

New Traits:

Pet Animal: A Pet Animal can be purchased as equipment for a character who acts as its master. The

animal has a standard profile but can't activate independed. Instead it's activated together with

its master either before or after the master has completed his own activation. It doesn't have a

move value but instead can end its move anywhere within 6" of the master figure. If the

master figure dies the pat animal must make an immediate move of up to 10" into or towards

the nearest cover. It does move, charge and fight like any other character. It's subject to a free

strike when moving out of close combat.

A masterless Pet Animal can be taken over by another member of the same warband with a

TN2 Mnd or Resove check. This is a free action. When taken over in this way the pet animal

moves 10" towards its new master at the end of the turn after all characters have completed

their activations until it is within control range of the new master.

They don’t count into victory conditions.

Keep to base:

A pet animal can stay in base contact with it’s master. If it does so it moves at the same time

as the master figure does and both count as being in close combat regardless who’s base is

actually in contact with the enemy. An attacking model can always decide to strike the animal

or the master figure and in case of radius attacks both roll for damage as if they would be

independed characters.

Sniff out:

Pet Animals with the sniff out trait can do Mnd and Sharp Senses checks to detect hidden

characters or scenario objectives for their master figure.

Holy Symbol and True Faith:

Add this to the existing rules for True Faith.

Any model with the True Faith Trait automatically owns a Holy Symbol.

A Vampire model who wants to charge a character with the True Faith trait that is not yet

locked in close combat must stop at 2” range and win a opposed Resolve + Iron Will roll. If

the Vampire wins the roll it can move on, if the True Faith character wins the roll the

Vampire is forced to stop and can’t move closer than 2” towards his intended target character.

If the Vampire has any movement left he still carry on moving in any direction and even into

close combat with another model. Note as the opposed roll is made during the charge the

Vampire can’t decide a different kind of action when he fails the roll.

If the Priest beats the Vampire by 3+ goals the Vampire looses 1 Vit. If the Vampire beats the

Priest by 3+ goals the Holy Symbol bursts into flame and is useless for the remainder of the

game.

Holy Water does only work against models with the Vampire trait. It’s a one use

weapon so each potion you purchase can be used for one attack only. It can be

thrown or used in close combat. If it hits it has a 2” radius inflicting DN6 hits.

Vampire models can’t use their DR Pool rerolls if hit by holy water.

A warband can’t purchase more than 3 potions of holy water in addition to it’s basic

equipment given in the warband lists. A player suing holy water must tell a Vampire

player which models carry Holy Water because Vampires usually sense its

whereabouts.

The Monster Hunters

Monster Hunters To set up a hunter warband first choose a nationality. Then choose one of the leader characters and the other members of the warband according to the following table. Fate of the good: A Monster Hunter Warband who is fighting an evil warband (Nosferatu, Vampires, Werewolves) starts the battle with a pool of 3 Fate dice that can be used at any time with any member of the warband in the same way any character can use his Fate Dice. Female Victim: Monster Hunters can use the Female Victim rules with any Leader, Slayer, Hunter or Expedition Member character if they fight an evil warband. New Traits: Guide: At the beginning of the game, after all models have been set up, any warband with a guide may make a free move action with one of its models. Pathfinder: Ignores difficult ground in woodland terrain. Special Equipment: Each warband has a number of specialized items available to hunt down dark creatures. These are well stored in the warbands stronghold and can be divided amongst it members before the battle begins. “Silver” can be used for any weapon, weapons must still be purchased as usual. It’s a free update for weapons.

Gypsies can use the “female victim” rules when fighting evil warbands. Gypsys have Wolfbane for three characters and two silver updates for any weapons of his choice for free. Traits: Beauty: A TN2 Res test is needed to shoot at a beautiful female character if she hasn’t attacked anybody this turn. The model gets +2D to Mesmerize tests also. These rules don’t apply to enemy female characters. Mesmerize: is a free action, otherwise as in the book.
