 INTRODUCTION
Famous mercenary regiments acquire a certain
notoriety because they are remarkably successful,
brutal, adventurous, or for some other reason that
brings them to the attention of the world. We call them
Regiments of Renown and it is these units which form
the basis of the Dogs of War armies.
Individual Regiments of Renown are led by famous
characters, and indeed are frequently named after these
leaders. For example, the notorious Ogre Captain
Golgfag, whose Ogre mercenaries have, at one time or
another, looted and despoiled most civilised parts Old
World... and some not so civilised ones too.
Dogs of War do not necessarily have ties to a particular
country, nor are they a whole new race.
They are bands of warriors and adventurers who live
by fighting – for glory and more importantly for gold!
The Dogs of War are made up of skilled pikemen,
deadly marksmen, Hobgoblin cavalry from the eastern
steppes, Halfling scouts, drunken Dwarf pirates, Ogres
from the Badlands and Giants from the misty shores of
Albion.
Together they ply their trade to every point of the
compass in the Old and New Worlds, fighting for
anybody, any time, any place, anywhere…
Although the Dogs of War regiments have no common
heritage, many find employment in that most notorious
of mercenary breeding grounds, the land of Tilea. Tilea
is an anarchic land and is in an almost constant state of
upheaval, as the wealthy merchant princes of the
independent city states plot against each other. All this
anarchy means mercenaries who travel there can be
assured of profitable employment.
Just as there are regiments of mercenaries to hire, there
are just as many lone freelancers. These individuals
wander the Old World, selling their skills to the highest
bidder. Many are thieves and brigands, and some are
hard bitten mercenaries who will not (or cannot) join
one of the many mercenary regiments. There are thrill-
seeking Imperial nobles, fanatical Witch Hunters and
even specialists such as siege engineers, wizards or
assassins.
If you wish to add Regiments of Renown to your
existing Warhammer army, then you should check the
Army List section of this book. You'll see that each
Regiment of Renown is available for hire to a limited
selection of armies. This is not because the mercenaries
are choosy who they fight for (far from it!), but
because some armies would never hire certain races or
individuals. No self-respecting Dwarf general is going
to hire Morgrog the Dwarf Crusher now is he?
3
All named models (except for Standard Bearers and
Musicians) in a Regiments of Renown follow the rules
for Characters in the game, with the following
exceptions. These characters cannot leave their unit
(unless specified), but they do not use up any of the
character percentage from the army lists (unless
specified).
If the characters have different equipment than the rest
of the rank and file, this is clearly listed in the
Equipment list. Note that, regardless of their
Leadership value, these characters can never be an
army’s General.
Some of these named models are Standard Bearers and
Musicians; these are treated just like normal Standard
Bearers and Musicians, and as such may not be
attacked separately.
All of these units and characters are unique – you may
only field one of each in your army, unless specified.
When fielding Regiments of Renown in any army other
than Dogs of War, they follow the rules for non-
aligned allies.
REGIMENTS FOR HIRE
In the next few pages, you will find all the information
you need to field Regiments of Renown in your
Warhammer battles.

all the equipment, characters and their magic items.
These cannot be modified in any way.
Profiles. The characteristic profiles for the troops and
characters in each unit are given here.
Unit Sizes. Each entry specifies the minimum size for
each unit. Normally the unit’s size can be increased by

cases units also have a maximum size.
Equipment. This entry lists the weapons and armour
for that regiment. The value of these items is included
in the points value.
Special rules. Many troops have special rules which
are described in this section.

which symbolises the blood that was shed that others
might go on - specifically the blood of their enemies.
Note the badge of the order worn over the right breast.

 HARBOTH AND THE
BLACK MOUNTAIN BOYS
Harboth spent his declining years cattle rustling in the
deep south.

When the local dwarf leader offered a bounty to

adventurers bold enough to try to destroy the Orc
settlement, Harboth resonded by meetinf, and
subsequently eating each adventurer stupid enough to
try it. Yaskin Forit made a necklace of the ears of these
unfortunate characters, whilst Harboth sent their bones
back to the Dwarf leader together with instructions to
send more Halflings as he found these particularly
palatable.

At the Battle of Bauer’s Farm the Black Mountain

Boys were mauled by a force including the 17th (Bafon
Olaf’s Own) Regiment of Foot and a contingent of the
Stirland Free Foresters. Following this setback, they
crossed into the Border Princes in search of easier
pickings.

"Oy, boss"
"Wot"
"Bin ter see Notlob, like you said,"
"Yer............?"
The Black Fire Pass is the only route over the Black
"An’ I sez you sez if ‘e don’t find some stunties we eat
Mountains, and for years the mountain and the pass
‘is boys,"
were by and large impassable due to the presence of a
large Orc settlement. This dirty and squalid township "Yer?"
consisted of several dozen wooden shacks, a large but
unstable saloon and hundreds of mean, greedy, low- "So ‘e sez ‘e’s goin’ ‘untin’ stunty,"
down Orcs. "Do wot?"

The town was run by Harboth, an Orc of great size and
strength. Harboth's mates used to spend most of their
time in the saloon, sheltering from the almost non-stop
rain which is an everyday phenomenon along the
slopes of the Black Mountains. They would take turns
manning the toll gates and torturing travellers.
Occasionally there would be a fight as some indignant
Halfling or Dwarf tried to defend himself - but not
often.
As you can see The Black Mountain Boys don't go in
much for fine clothing or fancy gear. They have quite
an extensive collection of armour and weapons looted
from travelers, including sturdy bows as well as heavy
iron hooked cleavers called Dwarf Ticklers, an
invention of Harboth's of which he is justly proud.
Yaskin Forit carries an especially large, double handed
version of thsi weapon.
After the Goblin wars the Bad Lands were gradually
cleaned up by the Dwarfs. Harboth and his gang were
forced to take to their heels. It is rumoured that
"E’s packin’ ‘is spearchuckers, an’ movin’ out. Goin’ ter
‘unt some stunties, ‘e sez,"
"WOT!"
"E’s packin’..."
"SHADDAP!"
"But I woz only...OW!"
"Get packin’..."
"Wot?"
"You ‘eard, Finks ‘e can leave ud behind, duz ‘e? We’ll
show ‘im!"
...And so it was that Harboth’s Black Mountain Boys
moved out of the Black Fire Pass to terrorise the lands
beyond. The uneasy partnership between the Black
Mountain Boys and Notlob’s bolt-thrower crews was
dissolved, over a trivial misunderstanding due to the
limited nature of the Orcish language. The Orcish
Word for moving out can also mean deserting, running
away or soiling one’s underwear...

 THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: Harboth the Orc.
BATTLE-CRY: “Pulp the Stunties!‖, as well as
various chants about Notlob, his attitude to danger and
the state of his underwear.
APPEARANCE: Ragged tunics and breeches, all
clothing is very dirty with a generally cast off
appearance. A light Mail jerkin is worn underneath the
other rags.
From the shields of the adventurers met (and
subsequently eaten) by Harboth, the Black Mountain
Boys discovered the concept of pictoral art, and now
their shields are painted with the faces of particularly
noteworthy victims.
Assorted emblems prevail - often of an offensive or
insulting nature. Harboth and his troops prefer to
individualise their shields by scrawling offensive
pictures or slogans on them.
POINTS: Harboth plus nine Orcs, including Yaskin
Forit, a Standard Bearer and Musician, cost a total of
165 points. This is the minimum size of unit you can
hire. The regiment may be enlarged by adding extra
Orcs at a cost of 8 points each.

Dwarf Ticklers: Dwarf Ticklers follows all the normal

Animosity: Harboth’s Orcs suffer from Animosity like
any other Greenskin unit, and must test each turn so
long as the unit is not engaged Close Combat, is not
fleeing, and numbers at least five models.
In the Start of the Turn phase roll a D6 for Harboth’s
Orcs — on a 2+ the unit passes the test and
moves/fights normally this turn. On a roll of I the unit
fails the test. To determine what happens, roll a D6 and
consult the table to the right:

THE ANIMOSITY TABLE
When a unit fails its Animosity test, roll a D6 on the ,
table and apply the result immediately.
1 Get 'Em. Oi! Did yer see that? Them other

shoutin' rude insults, hurlin' dung! They

Inflict D6 S3 hits on the closest friendly unit
that has 5 or more models, is subject to
Animosity, and is within 12". The victim (if
there is one) then inflicts D6 S3 hits back. In
both instances, Hordes inflict 2D6 S3 hits
instead of just D6. Neither unit can charge or
move in the Movement phase, cast spells, nor
shoot this turn. If the victim has not yet taken
an Animosity test, then it does not do so this
turn. If there isn't an eligible victim, the unit
will Squabble instead (see below).
Wounds caused by the Get 'Em result never

2-5 2-5 Squabble. Ratgut is a filthy lyin' git. As
soon as this fight is done he needs teachin' a
lesson. Take this and dat, and this and dat, and
this and dat, and sum of this!
If it is possible to do so, the unit must declare a
charge against the closest enemy unit in the
Charge sub-phase. If the unit is unable to
declare a charge, then a rowdy squabble breaks
out and the unit may not move in the
Movement phase, cast spells nor shoot this turn.
6 We'll Show 'Em. Da rest of da army is just a
bunch of softies compared to us. Let's go show
those pansies how it's done proper. Stomp
everyfing into dust. Charge!
Pivot the unit on the spot to face the nearest
visible enemy unit, and then make a full (non-
march) move in a straight line towards it. If
there is no visible enemy, the unit must move
straight ahead instead. If it is impossible for the
unit to pivot to face the closest enemy, it will
pivot towards it as far as it can, and will then
move as far forward as it can while still keeping
the enemy within its forward arc. After the
move is complete the unit must declare a charge
in the Charge sub-phase against the closest
visible enemy unit, if it is possible to do so. If
the unit cannot declare a charge then it may
carry on with the rest of its turn normally, as if
it had not yet moved this turn.
 MAD MULLAH AKLAN'D'S
DEATH COMMANDOS
It was the talented and fanatical Mullah Aklan'd who
first led the Men of the South against the Elven lands.
Within his lifetime the Mullah had reduced the Elven
nations to a few pockets of isolated resistance, and
taken control of all of their old trade routes. It was at
this time that the Sea Elves undertook many of their
great journeys across the western seas.

Aklan'd may have been insane; many claimed as much,

most of them died horribly. His brand of religion was
based upon the old religions of the desert tribes,
modified to accord more closely with his own distorted
view of the world.

His most dedicated followers were the Aklan'd Death

Commandos. This elite regiment was formed from the
most devoted of the young desert warriors, men willing
to die, and in dying gloriously pass into the highest of
the 7 Heavens, known as St'oec.

The successors of the Mullah maintained the glorious

tradition of the Death Commandos, always choosing
the finest equipment for them and always placing them
at the forefront of battle.
The most honoured post in the Death Commandos is
that of Champion Eunuch. Hasim - the current
Champion is an enormously fat Eunuch renowned as
the slayer of over 100 infidels.

THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: Mad Mullah Aklan'd.

BATTLE-CRY: Purity through death!

APPEARANCE: Mail armour and helmet. The long

blue coat is made up of thick padded material and can
be worn either underneath or over the armour. The
Death Commandos wear the badge of the Mullah.

 ELWING'S ELVEN GUARD CAVALRY
The Elves have never been a very militaristic nation,
preferring to raise impromptu armies of citizens rather
than keep a large standing army. The seclusion of the
High Elves and the basically maritime nature of the Sea
Elves also made it inessential to have a large army.
However, to guard the coasts of the Sea Elf lands
against possible foreign incursions, a body of Guard
Cavalry is maintained, small units being distributed
throughout the Elf Kingdoms.

Captain Elwing of Lothern was the leader of one such

small unit, stationed along the north coast of the Elf
Kingdom. He sprang to fame during the Norse Raids -
at a time when adventurous Old Worlders were
beginning to nurture territorial ambitions in the Elf
Kingdoms. The Elves quickly put the invaders to flight,
and those that fled to their longships were later
intercepted and destroyed by the Sea Elf navy.

Elwing's rout of the armies of Norse Champion Cecil

Bloodaxe the Mauler of Many, and his subsequent
slaying of the same were much talked about in Lothern
and still form the basis for many popular stories of
heroism. Elwing's extreme cool in insisting that he
finished his game of shove ha'penny against the
Regimental champion Estrulan before riding out to
meet the invaders has passed into Elvish folklore.

THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: Elwing of Lothern.

themselves vary from dull browns to sparkling reds and
blues. Karnac himself is white. Huris is green. Most of
the equipment carried by these creatures is black,
whilst the commonest metal used by the Lizardmen is
either copper or a copper alloy such as brass or bronze.
Lizardmen sometimes use captured Dwarf armour,
which is often iron. Huris wears a very distinctive
helmet, which formerly belonged to a Dwarf warrior,
but has been beaten so that it more or less fits his
reptilian head.
The shield carried by these troops is made from the
hide of some underground reptile, and is of mottled
grey or green colour.

 NOTLOB'S ORCISH
BOLT-THROWING ENGINES
For many years the only route over the Black
Mountains was dominated by an Orcish settlement run
by Harboth -an Orc of great size and strength. Many
battles were fought within this mountain pass, the
Black Fire Paw, and many heroes emerged on both
sides. Dwarfs and men tried desperately to destroy the
Orcs, and the Orcs in turn responded by strengthening
their defences and enacting countless revenge raids on
human farmsteads.
Notlob was already famous amongst his kind when he
arrived at the Black Fire Pass. Had he not invented
many fiendish engines of war and instruments of
torture? Had he not designed and commanded the War
Engines that battered down the walls of half the cities
in the Badlands? No. Notlob was to apply his creative
genius to designing new engines for the defence of the
pass.
THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: Notlob.
BATTLE-CRY: Due to the nature of their weaponry
these Orcs do not employ a battle cry as such although
they will happily enter hand to hand combat,
screaming, yelling and gesticulating in the usual Orcish
fashion. However, unusually for Orcs, many of
Notlob's crewmen can write a few words. They employ
this talent to enscribe various slogans along their
missiles, including such erudite witticisms as, 'Notlob
does it from 300 feet' and 'Chew on this Stuntie'.
APPEARANCE: Orcs do not wear uniforms. They
despise uniformity and prefer to individualise all their
clothing by applying a good layer of filth. They have a
similar attitude to their war engines, and take great
delight in giving them names and painting slogans on
them. Many Orcs even keep a record of their kills on
their engines, together with the names of battles and
campaigns in which they have fought.

POINTS: Notlob and two Bolt Throwers cost a total

of 135 points. This is the minimum size of unit you can
hire. You may buy extra Bolt Throwers at a cost of +40
points per Bolt Thrower. Every other Bolt Thrower
counts as an additional Special/Rare choice.

TROOP TYPE: War Machine (Bolt Thrower).

The Men and Dwarfs didn't know what had hit them
when their next assault foundered under a driving
storm of huge bolts - as large as spears and capable of
piercing straight through even the toughest Dwarf
armour. Further assaults proved equally fruitless, and
eventually the Orcs were left alone, to continue their
age-old trades of murdering travellers and plundering
merchant convoys.

The Black Fire Pass conflict was to earn Notlob a

reputation amongst Human and Dwarf kind. However,
he always considered the invention of the 'Happy
Halfling Mangling Rod and Head Press' to have been
his greatest achievement.

 THE MIGHTY THROG AND HIS
HOBGOBLIN DESPOILERS OF
THE DARK LANDS
Driven from the Old World at the end of the Goblin
Wars many of the Goblins, Orcs, Hobgoblins and other
allied creatures fled into the Dark Lands. The Dark
Lands were then, as now, truly dark: ceaseless volcanic
activity, steaming tar pits and terrible, natural pollution
shielded the land from the sun. Little could grow in
such a place, and very few creatures could tolerate the
barren landscape, the gloom and the choking air.
Throg, however, quite liked it.
From his armed camp on the eastern side of the
World's Edge Mountains, Throg gathered his seasoned
warriors and began to carve himself out a little empire.
Soon a goodly chunk of the western part of the Dark
Lands were under his control, and he began to extend
his power deep into the mountains themselves. Here he
and his Champion, Grunmunter the Beast, fought
numerous battles in the valleys and passes of the
mountains, and eventually within the Dwarf fortresses.
His enemies were mostly Dwarfs, and the Hobgoblins
soon acquired a taste for the flesh of these creatures.
Of all the many bloody and violent deeds of Throg the
most often remembered is the so called Feast of the
Dwarven King. On this occasion the Hobgoblins
infiltrated the underground fortress of Boran Fireheart
a powerful Dwarf lord. The Hobgoblins secreted
themselves in the kitchens until the night of a feast,
subdued the servants and disguised themselves in the
aprons and other clothing of the waiters. That Boran
Fireheart failed to notice until far too late that his
kitchen staff were all over 6' tall and incredibly ugly,
can only be put down to the general level of
intoxication. The feast went ahead as usual, but instead
of the planned proceedings the Hobgoblins ate Boran
and his guests, while Throg entertained by torturing a
troop of Halfling Juggler s unlucky enough to be
passing through.
What became of this renowned fighter is a mystery,
some say that he disappeared whilst leading a mixed
force of goblinoids into the Dwarf Fortress of Raven's
Hold. Others link his disappearance to treachery on
behalf of the ferocious Grunmunter, a callous
individual.
THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: The Mighty Throg.
BATTLE-CRY: The strange and animalistic battle
cry of these creatures is in the Goblin Tongue. It
means, 'Mark your target well and eat it'.
14
APPEARANCE: Clothing is mostly made out of
leather or fur, and is of various shades of brown.
Grunmunter wears a huge fur cloak, and around his
heavy belt he keeps his latest trophies - the heads of his
victims.
The shields carry the emblem shown drawn in the
blood of their enemies. Colours will therefore vary
from bright red to darkish brown or black.
POINTS: The Mighty Throg plus nine Hobgoblins,
including Grunmunter, a Standard Bearer and
Musician, cost a total of 110 points. This is the
minimum size of unit you can hire. The regiment may
be enlarged by adding extra Hobgoblins at a cost of 3,5
points each.

 THE DISCIPLES OF THE RED REDEMPTION
The Red Redemption was born during the bitter
religious wars fought between the Men of the West and
the swarthy Arabians. Amongst the countless factions
of crusading warriors, those known only as the
Brotherhood were surely the most feared and the most
powerful.
As with all protracted wars, there were long periods of
inactivity, whilst supplies were organised, spies sent
out or paltry scouting missions undertaken. Such lulls
were anathema to the more zealous of the warrior-
priests of the Brotherhood . They hated sitting around
whilst they knew the Arabians were out there being,
well, downright Arabian.
Eroneus Balbadron was one such frustrated fanatic.
Eroneus fell into a black mood whenever the fighting
got held up. Each stoppage caused his moods to
become even blacker; indeed, legend has it that his skin
and hair turned completely black during this time. His
frustration turned easily to anger, and the anger grew
inside him until it was almost a palpable thing. He
sought solace in the holy books of the Brotherhood, but
to no avail. His anger grew and grew until he became
crazed and twisted with it. His hatred of Arabians
became a hatred for all.
Presently, a very strange thing happened that was to
change the course of Eroneus's life, and the lives of
countless others also. It was a dark evening, and the
Brotherhood had just captured the ruins of an ancient
temple from a group of Arabians. The enemy had
hardly put up any resistance, and the fight had been a
most disappointing affair. It was as he searched the
ruins for any signs of the enemy that Eroneus saw a
curious book, its cover barely visible as it lay on the
floor. Eroneus compulsively picked it up and sought
secrecy in the ruined remains of a sunken room.
Eroneus placed his torch in a bracket by the wall, and
feverishly spread the book in front of him. Kneeling
before it he began to read. To say that what he read was
a bombshell would understate the impact that the
volume had on him. In truth his crazed mind could not
at first believe that it was possible: this aged book
contained the truth. Eroneus was overwhelmed by a
feeling of physical, spiritual and mental Redemption.
The book was a sacred scripture dedicated to and
revering the Chaos God of Khorne. Khorne the black
God of Battle, the dark Lord of Slaughter, the thirsting
God of Blood!
At once Eroneus felt his links with the Brotherhood,
and with humanity, permanently broken. In a fever of
ecstasy he pounded his face against the chamber walls
until all that remained was ... well, little enough
remained to betray the fact that he had once been
human. Only then did he see the black robes and iron
masks that hung upon the chamber walls. The iron
mask was unnaturally hot and seared his face as he put
it on. The black robes soaked the blood from his
15
armour. Eroneus had become the first and greatest of
the Redemptionists, the Master of the Redemption, and
his cry was, 'Be redeemed through blood, saved
through slaughter.'
Quickly slaying his former comrades in a chaotic
commando-style exercise of carnage, Eroneus fled into
the world at large. His objectives were unclear, but he
was certain that people of the right persuasion would
be sure to welcome enlightenment. He was right.
Only a few years after the incident of the Brother-
slaying, the cult of the Red Redemption had become
established throughout the Old World. In the secret
temples of the cult, initiates were introduced to the vile
and bloody ways of the mighty God Khorne The skin
was ritually flayed from the face and torso of each
initiate. Glowing hot iron face masks and cuirasses
formed a now and tougher skin. At last they were
permitted to wear the black robes of Khorne. Of
course, this resulted in all of the Disciples of the Red
Redemption suffering from total and irrevocable
madness, but that really didn't bother them too much.
They were more concerned in shedding the blood of
heretics, as members of the countless groups of
Disciples then spreading the ways of Khorne in the
world.
One such group is Darkhoth's Disciples of the Red
Redemption. Darkhoth is said to have been initiated by
the Master of the Redemption himself, a great honour
indeed. His power is such that he can command a
group of up to 40 Disciples. The key to this power is
the large black book that he always carries - the
Darkhold. This is a transcript of the original scripture
book discovered by Eroneus. It is a very powerful
magic item, although its uses are confined to cult
practices. Merely looking at the pages of this book
would drive any living being insane. The Disciples are
immune to this by dint of them already having
achieved this particular state of mind. Darkhoth is able
to read passages from this book, and herein lies his
power. A passage read from the book gives Darkhoth
absolute power over any Disciples who hear him.
During the initiation ceremony, Darkhoth reads a
special passage from the book which so assaults the
mind of the initiate that his personality is forever
shattered. Darkhoth assesses the suitability of the
initiate for cult membership by his reaction. If the
initiate reacts with extreme violence, this is judged to
be good, and he is prepared for flaying and encasement
in glowing iron. If the initiate fails to react with
sufficient violence, he is given up as a sacrifice to
Khorne.
Spreading the ways of Khorne through the Old World
by means of slaughter, destruction, arson, murder and
the propagation of insanity.

 AVENGING KNIGHTS OF
THE CLEANSING FLAME
Chronus Goodheart was a member of a singular band
of crusaders in the holy war against the Arabians. He
was one of the Brotherhood. Chronus came from a
deeply religious family and firmly believed in the ways
of the West. He abhorred the swarthy, outlandish men
of Araby and their insidiously evil culture. Now he was
confronted by the most hideous scene he could
possibly have envisaged.
Before him was a sight that turned his stomach, and a
stench that spelled both his nostrils and his soul. It was
human carrion, carrion that had once been friend and
fellow crusader. Chronus and his three companions
were puzzled arid horrified at the sickening carnage
that had fallen upon their fellows. It was the work of no
man, or no sane man at least, they reasoned.
They built a great funeral pyre to consume what
remained of the Knights of the Brotherhood. As the
flames bellowed and roared one of Chronus's Knights
made a strange discovery amongst the ruins where the
massacre had taken place. Returning to Chronus he told
of his find, and Chronus at once investigated. What the
young Knight had chanced upon was an underground
sanctuary -originally part of a temple, but now hidden
amongst the ruins. Entering inside Chronus saw the
blood stained frescoes, frescoes that depicted scenes of
horror and perversion of an altogether abhuman nature.
17
Worst of all, upon the floor lay the discarded uniform
and equipment of a Knight of The Brotherhood.
'Eroneus', he gasped, as he recognised the clothing of
one of the company, Eroneus Balbadron, his own
cousin.
Chronus's mind was thrown into chaos. Clearly his
cousin had been murdered, and in a manner both foul
and inhuman. The whole thing stank of some perverse
religious ritual, of a terrible sacrifice to who knows
what hellish god.
But it was Garland, the standard bearer who glimpsed
the truth, for in his youth he had seen the secret
woodland temples of the Gods of Chaos, and had heard
rumours of their deeds. He came from the forests of the
Empire, lands deep enough and dark enough to hide the
minions of chaos and their victims. In the ruins of the
temple he recognised the signs.
Chronus was struck dumb at what Garland told him. To
find that his own cousin was the monster that had
undoubtedly precipitated, if not actually accomplished,
the deaths of so many good Knights, was a
considerable blow.
The Knights packed the sanctuary with straw, and
around the whole circuit of the hill they spread such
flammable materials as lay to hand. Within an hour the
whole hilltop was on fire, and what little remained of
the Knights of The brotherhood, and of the strange
temple, was utterly destroyed. As the flames burned
each Knight swore a great and binding oath.
―This shall be our call to arms and symbol, the flame of
our burning brothers. We must keep the flame burning
until such time as our oath is fulfilled and the world
cleansed of the evil of Chaos. Only then can our souls
rest in peace. And the flame we shall bear as our
device, and -the minions of Chaos will come to fear us,
and we shall be known as the Avenging Knights of the
Cleansing Flame.‖
So it was that the four Knights travelled abroad in
search of Eroneus. They encountered much evidence of
his passing, and many men joined them in their quest,
for many were the unspeakable acts committed by the
defilers of Chaos.
The Knights continue in their quest, never ceasing or
stopping in one place long enough save to sat or rest.
'From the ashes of the old are born the new, and
the fire shall have cleansed them, and they shall be
free of evil.'

 THE NIGHTMARE LEGION –
MORDINI'S DOOMED LEGION
Ennio Mordini was one of the most powerful
mercenary captains ever to serve among the Tilean City
States. For most of his career, he and his men served
Duke Fabriano of Lambrusco, expanding that state's
fortunes considerably. Their success began to worry
their patron, especially since it was not unknown for
Tilean mercenary units to seize control of the states
which they were supposed to be serving. When the
neighbouring state of Organza offered a lucrative
alliance on condition that Mordini's troops were
disposed of, Fabriano seized the opportunity and sent
them into an ambush which none survived. Mordini
swore just before he died that he would be avenged on
his treacherous employer.
Barely five years later, an army of undead skeletons
poured out of the Apuccini Mountains, under the
tattered banner of Mordini. Fuelled by their hatred, the
dead soldiers cut the armies of Lambrusco to ribbons,
and razed the city to the ground. It is said that Duke
Fabriano spent seven days and seven nights dying.
Now the Doomed Legion has turned against Organza
and the other City States, destroy everything in their
path as they aver themselves upon the double-dealing
princes who connived at their murder.
While they were alive, Mordini's mercenaries won a
number of great victories against the enemies of Duke
Fabriano of Lambrusco. They are most remembered,
however, for the assault and destruction of Lambrusco.
It is rumoured that Mordini has now re-fortified the
city, established a dead court there. It appears, though,

SPECIAL RULES: Unbreakable, Unstable, Fear.
Undead: The Doomed Legion is Undead, and as such
the following rules apply to them:
If Mordini is killed, the Doomed Legion will quickly
begin to crumble to dust. At the end of the phase when
Mordini is killed, and at the beginning of each of their
turns thereafter, the Doomed Legion must take a
Leadership test. If the test is failed, the unit suffers a
number of wounds equal to the number they failed the
Leadership test by. No saves of any kind are allowed
against these wounds.
The Nightmare Legion may march as long as Mordini
is alive.
MAGIC ITEMS:
Skabskrath (Magic Weapon)
The legendary blade of the Undead mercenary, Ennio
Mordini, Skabscrath flickers with pale flame. This
accursed blade thirsts for the life force of its enemies.
A blade so potent it cannot be sheathed without first
taking a life, Skabscrath is possessed of an evil
sentience that drives the wielder to ever darker acts.
Some claim the blade is more steeped in evil than any
Vampire, for it will betray its wielder if its bloodlust is
not sated. When unsheathed Skabscrath emits the
terrible screams of all those it has slain, amplified to
such a degree that it can cause those who hear them to
die affright.
The bearer has the Devastating Charge and Frenzy
special rules, and all close combat attacks made by the
bearer have the Flaming Attacks special rule.
In addition, such is Skabscrath's desire for bloodshed
that if the bearer has not killed an enemy model in
close combat when the game ends, he is removed as a
casualty.
The autumn rain hammered down on the armoured column as
it wound its way northwards through a narrow defile in the
Apuccini Mountains. They were nearing their goal now, and
the troops were fighting off the weariness of six days' forced
march. At the-head of the column, the unit's lieutenant
pushed his helmet up and mopped the water from his face.
'I'll be glad when this job's over,' he commented.
'You're not alone there, Renzo,' replied his chief, 'Once
we've finished here, 1 think we'll go to Araby. I've heard
there's a new prophet sprung up there.' Renzo nodded. 'Just
what we need,' he said, 'Lots of sunshine and a nice, simple
little holy war. You know where you are with that sort of
job - better than all this political messingabout. What a
business, eh? All because of an apple, a piece of string and
three initiate priestesses.'
'And the use to which the Duke of Organza's son and heir
was putting said items,' his leader reminded him, 'And the
fact that one of the initiate priestesses was none other than
the youngest daughter of our noble patron. Anyway, it's all
money.'
They turned a sharp bend in the gulley to find their way
blocked by a solid wall of pikemen. Suddenly, archers
21
appeared on either side of the sheer gulley sides, and a
carefully-prepared landslide blocked the way behind them.
'Form up!' bellowed their leader, 'Hollow square - move!' It
was obvious that they had walked into a trap, and one from
which they had little chance of walking away. Professionals
to the last, the mercenaries readied their weapons and
prepared to sell their lives dearly.
'Mordini!' came a shout from the opposing ranks. The
mercenary captain squinted through the rain.
'Sardo?' he shouted back, 'I thought we were on the same
side! Have you sold Lambrusco out?'
'Not quite.' came the reply. 'Duke Fabriano sold you out.
The whole war with Organza is a set-up - your death was one
of the alliance conditions. You're too effective for your own
good, Mordini - he began to worry about what would happen
if you turned against him.' Renzo spat loudly.
'Politics!' he grunted. 'What did I tell you?'
'Mordini!' Sardo continued, 'I don't need to tell you that this
is not of my choosing.'
'Understood!' Mordini answered, 'Just don't expect it to be
easy. And if you do me tell Duke Fabriano this - he hasn't
heard the last of Mordini. Someday, somehow, accounts will
be settled for this day!'
 SKARLOC'S WOOD ELF ARCHERS
Skarloc, "the Hooded One" is probly one of the most
renowned Wood Elf to walk the Old World in current
times. Skarloc and his companions, the wardancer
Glam and the apprentice mage Kaia Stormwitch, were
adventures for a short time and travelled over the
Vaults into the Border Princes.
While staying in the fortress of the Border Prince
Cline, they discovered the prince had an ancient Wood
Elf artefact in his collection in his thrown room. The
artefact is the heart shaped casket containing the ashes
of the Wood Elf hero, Kern. The artefact has been lost
to the Wood Elves for over 100 years. During a
meeting with the Border Prince, Skarloc and Kaia
attempted to peacefully acquire the artefact, but Cline
refused just give the artefact over them without an
artefact to replace it. This was unacceptable to Skarloc,
and decided that they would return that evening for the
artefact.
Soon after nightfall, the trio quickly gained access to
the halls of the fortress by making short work of the
guards and taking the key to the front door. With Wood
Elf stealth, Skarloc, Kaia, and Glam moved swiftly to
the throne room. What they found their was shocking,
to say the least. Cline was in his thrown room with a
few Skaven. The Border Prince was haggling with the
lead Skaven about selling all of the people under his
rule to the Skaven for a few small artifacts. This
sickened Skarloc, and the Elves charged in. After a
short battle, the Skaven were dead and Glam had the
corrupt prince pinned against the wall. Cline offered to
give the artefact to them if they would spare his life,
Skarloc agreed. After Kaia retrieved the artefact the
Elves turned to leave, Cline drew a pistol from his boot
and cocked the trigger back. The click that the pistol
made when the trigger was cocked flung Glam into
action. Moving as fast as the wind, Glam cleaved the
princes clean off with one sword and delivered the
killing blow with the other.
When Skarloc and his companions returned to the
Loren Forest, they presented the artefact to the Forest
King. He was taken be the bravery and initiative that
Skarloc has shown by returning the Casket of Kern to
his people. The Forest King had announced that
Skarloc would be the defender of the casket, and he
would be put in command of band of scouts defending
the outskirts of the Loren Forest. The casket was
fashioned into a banner, and he and his companions left
to meet the scouts.
The Wood Elf scouts that would become known as
Skarloc's Scouts of gained a name for themselves when
defending the southern Loren forest from the Orcs of
the Broken Skull tribe. Skarloc and his scouts were the
only regiment in the area at the time the Broken Skulls
attacked. The story says that Skarloc and his scouts,
prepared to meet the charge of the 200 plus Broken
22
Skull Orcs. The regimental musician sounded his brass
horn. The sound of the horn terrified the Orcs so much
so that they stopped in their tracks and looked to see if
a large monster was going to attack them. Then Glam
leapt himself on to a stump and charged, signalling the
scouts to release a sheet of arrows cutting down a
countless amount of greenskins. The Orcs were
confused and panicking, Skarloc drew his rune sword
and ordered the musician to sound the charge.
Once news of the Broken Skull's attack made it to the
Forest King, a wing of War Hawk Riders was
dispatched to assist Skarloc. When the War hawks
arrived, they discovered that Skarloc and the rest of the
regiment weren't only alive, but they had totally wiped
out the attacking Broken Skull Orcs. The wardancer
Glam was crouched on top of mountain of Greenskin
bodies totally painted in the greenskin's blood.
Duke of Parravon, Gancreb Duc Dequenelles made a
request to the Forest King for assistance in his war
against the Lichemaster, Heinrich Kemmler. The
Forest King sent Skarloc's Scouts to Parravon, since
Skarloc has some prior experience working with the
filthy humans. When the Lichemaster attacked a village
outside Parravon, the Duke's army met the undead
threat at full force. Skarloc and his scouts got around
the Lichemaster's lines and showered the walking dead
with arrows. This did not go over well with the
Lichemaster, so he sent Krell to do away with these
troublesome elves. Glam and Skarloc charged Krell.
They have matched blow with blow, with neither side
getting the upper hand.
The battle ended when a Questing Knight put a lance in
to Krell's back pinning the Wight to the ground. The
Lichemaster's army was crumbling Kemmler used his
powers to remove his remaining forces and Krell from
the field. The Wood Elf scouts were credited for the
victory. Skarloc's fame quickly spread across the Old
World, and his band of scouts became in demand.
Skarloc decided that working with different general, in
different lands would give him insight on the working
of the enemies of Loren thus allowing his scouts better
defend their homeland. From that day forward,
Skarloc's Scouts have worked for different Counts of
the Empire, Merchant Princes of Tilea, and other
Dukes of Bretonnia. They always send whatever they
do not need to the Forest King; to whom they are
viciously loyal.
Skarloc is known both within and beyond the Forest of
Loren. Leading a band of Scouts he often ventures far
into the lands surrounding the Wood Elf realm to gain
advance warning of impending threats.
Skarloc is skilled in the interpretations of tracks and
portents and will sometimes even warn the Bretonnians
if he finds signs of their common enemies. Thus he has
become a trusted friend of many Bretonnian barons and
is welcomed at their castles, especially when he brings
the excellent venison of Loren! It is usually Skarloc
who acts as the emissary of the King and Queen in the
Wood and he it is who is sent to escort friends through
the forest to the King's Glade.
Skarloc not only knows the Forest of Loren, but also
has intimate knowledge of other great forests in the Old
world acquired during his scouting expeditions. It is
even said that there are small bands of his kin secretly
dwelling in many forests utterly unbeknown to the
rulers and peoples of these lands. They are undoubtedly
there not only as Waywatchers but to befriend and
protect any Treemen or Dryads who may still dwell
there. Skarloc's men have been known to turn up
unexpectedly on many a far flung battlefield,
screaming out of the trees to aid those ambushed or
surrounded in the woods by Orcs or other vile foes.
THE REGIMENT
CAPTAIN: Skarloc 'The Hooded One'.
BATTLE-CRY: Since they rely on guerilla warfare
and sneak attacks, the scouts have no battlecry.
APPEARANCE: The scouts wear leather surcoats
over their chain mail, in various shades of green and
brown for camouflage.
POINTS: Skarloc plus nine Archers, including Glam
the Laughing Warrior, Kaia Stormwitch the Standard
Bearer Araflane Warskald the Musician, cost a total of
275 points. This is the minimum size of unit you can
hire. The regiment may be enlarged by adding extra
Archers at a cost of 15 points each.

UNIT SIZE: 10+
EQUIPMENT: The unit is equipped with hand

TROOP TYPE: Infantry.
SPECIAL RULES: Skirmishers, Scouts, Forest
Strider, Asrai Archery
Glam the Laughing Warrior: Glam is the regiment's
Wardancer Champion, a fearless guardian of the forest
tracks. He sports a huge mane of red hair, which he
coats with fat to make it stand on end and look proud
23
and intimidating. He is known by friend and foe alike
as the "Laughing Warrior', for in the heat of battle, as
he leaps and bounds across the battlefield, he laughs
with the joy and exhilaration of the fight, slaying his
foes with almost contemptuous case. His wild and
ululating cry is often the last thing that the enemies of
the Loren hear as they are ambushed by Skarloc's
company, their bones to mingle with those of countless
others.
As a Wardancer, Glam receives +1 Strength when he
charges. In addition, he may choose one of the
following Shadow Dances of Loec at the start of each
round of combat:
 Whirling Death: Killing Blow
 Storm of Blades: +D3 Attacks
 The Shadows Coil: 4+ Ward save
 Woven mist: Always Strikes First
Kaia Stormwitch: Kaia is the beautiful young
daughter of a powerful Wood Elf Mage. Against her
father's wishes she ran away to seek the thrills to be
had with Skarloc's wandering company. She bears aloft
the Valourous Heart Standard, an archaic and much
respected totem by the people of the Loren. Know as
"The Stormwitch", she brings fiery death and
destruction upon the enemies of the Wood Elves.
Kaia may cast the spell Urannon’s Thunderbolt like a
bound spell (power level 3).
Araflane Warskald: Araflane follows the normal
rules for musicians. An old Wood Elf trick to scare off
men and Orcs was make horns that sound like a
monsters cry. The great bronze horn Arafland carries is
extremely well crafted and causes Fear in non-Elves.
MAGIC ITEMS:
Runesword of Darkwood (Magic Weapon)
Skarloc found this sword in the darkest part of the
Loren wood. There are runes on that sword that even
the oldest of the Wood Elf Mage Lords cannot
decipher, one believes that the ancient race know as
Zoats may have forged the weapon.
This weapon gives Skarloc the Always Strikes First
and Armour Piercing special rule.
Valourous Heart Standard (Magic Standard)
The Valourous Heart Standard incorporates a heart-
shaped casket holding the ashes of a legendary Elven
hero, Kern son of the goddess Torothal. He was
believed to be the son of the elven goddess Torothal.
Somehow, it ended up in the hands of the very corrupt
Border Prince. The Border Prince was slain by Glam
and they took the standard. The spirit of Kern has a
hardening affect on the scouts, which allows them to
hold out against incredible odds.
Skarloc's Archers are always Steadfast as long as they
have at least one complete rank of five or more models.

The sun had barely risen as the group of
Elves made their way through the forest.
At last they reached the clearing, and
moved into position around its edges,
casting a loose but deadly net around the
edges of the glade.
Scarcely a leaf stirred as they took up their
positions, and scarcely a shadow moved to
betray their presence.
In the clearing, the Orcs went about their
business unaware. Crews were busily
cutting down the smaller trees, and fires
had been set about the bases of the larger
ones. Animals of various types hung over
the several smaller fires most showed signs
of having died slowly and painfully, and a
piteous squealing betrayed that at least one
was still alive.
Skarloc's eyes grew hard beneath his hood,
and he raised one hand. Araflane Warskald
lifted his great bronze horn to his lips, and
its harsh bellowing note echoed around the
clearing. The sound took the Orcs by
surprise, and they froze for an instant and in
that instant, half their number died as the
first volley of arrows slammed across the
clearing. One Orc, larger than the rest and
scarred by time and many battles, began
bellowing orders. Two arrows burried their
heads in its hide before it picked up a
24
shield, but with no visible effect. With
much shouting and cuffling, it managed to
form a dozen or so of the Orcs into
something approaching a fighting
formation, and they backed against one of
the great piles of fallen trunks to protect
their backs.
From one side of the clearing came a
piercing, ululating scream, and a weird
figure flew through the air, somersaulting
over a stack of timber three times an Orc's
height. The figure an Elf, with his body
garishly painted and a great mane of
impossiblyred hair ran towards the Orcs,
whooping and laughing in ferocious joy.
The Orcs were transfixed by the strange
apparition, which charged towards them
unscathed through the hail of arrows. He
dodged and twisted past their blades, and
whirled along the entire length of the front
rank leaving a trail of cut throats and
lopped arms in his wake before leaping over
the three ranks of Orcs with another
flamboyant somersault, which landed him
atop the woodpile with the Orc leader's
severed head in one hand.
As the Wardancer brandished the head, the
rest of the Elves broke cover Skarloc with
his bow on his back, brandishing his great
runesword, Araflane with his horn
bellowing over the confusion, Kaia
Stormwitch with the group's standard held
high and lightning crackling from the
bluesilver blade of her athame, and Elves all
around charging into the clearing with
swords drawn.
The death of their leader, coupled with the
surprise of the attack, broke the Orcs'
morale, and they ran blindly hither and
yon, looking for some escape from the
clearing but finding only redbladed death.
The battle was a short one.
 PRINCE ULTHER’S IMPERIAL DWARFS –
THE DRAGON COMPANY
As he lay dying in Karaz-a-Karak, King Ulfar
Stonehammer of Karak Ungor sent for his son, Prince
Ulther, who was leading a punitive expedition in the
mountains north of Karak Kadrin. Knowing that it was
not the will of the Ancestors that he should live to see
Karak Ungor freed from its 4,000-year occupation by
the hated Ores and Goblins, King Ulfar charged his son
with the task of liberating their hold and slaughtering
its occupiers to the last Snotling. King Ulfar laid one
further demand on Prince Ulther: to slay any Chaos
Dwarf who should cross his path. Ulfar viewed these
abominations, and the Tainted Dwarfs from the
northern World's Edge Mountains, as a stain upon the
honour of the Dwarf race.
to exterminate the greenskin and Chaos Dwarf races,
Prince Ulther was not one to be trifled with. This
onerous duty was unlikely to put Prince Ulther in a
good humour for the foreseeable future. No matter, a
clan obligation was never considered lightly.
Though based in Karaz-a-Karak since the fall of their
Dwarfhold over four millennia ago, members of the
Stonehammer clan have spent decades battling the
enemies of their race. Eager to prove his mettle, Prince
Ulther, like other young Warlords of his generation,
has begun employing tactics that leave the clan Elders
of the Warrior craftguilds shaking their beards in
disgust.

Taking a dragon-headed post from his father's deathbed Prince Ulther has scouts lead his warriors over the

Most encounters with Prince Ulther and his Dragon
Company will occur in the mountainous regions north
of Karak Kadrin, or the nearby Imperial and Kislevite
foothills Individuals wishing to aid Prince Ulther in his
quest are more than welcome, especially if they are
Dwarfs. Such individuals should be warned that Prince
Ulther doesn't suffer slackers or braggarts, and risks his
own life as much as those of his followers. Those who
fail to pull their weight are usually abandoned in the
mountains without provisions.

King Ulther son of Ulfar of Karak-Ungor settled

quickly into the responsibilities of command, despite
the doubts expressed openly by some of his father’s
retainers. The Dragon Company’s most notable exploit
was the raising of the siege of Karak-Gromni, when
half the attacking Goblins turned to flight on hearing
the Company’s battle-cry. Historians are divided over
whether this was due to the Dragon Company’s
fearsome reputation, or whether they thought a real
dragon was coming.

King Ulfar Stonehammer of Karak-Ungor lay dying.
Relatives and retainers were gathered round his bed with
its four dragon-topped posts, chewing their beards in grief.
"Where is my son?" croaked the king, "Let him come to
me." A servant slipped out of the royal bedchamber and
hurried to the Prince’s apartments. After a few minutes,
Prince Ulther son of Ulfar entered the chamber, whistling
cheerfully.
"Hello, father," he said, "Still here, then?"
"Well, that’s nice," gasped the king, "What about a bit of
grief?"
The Prince scratched his beard. "Of course I’ll miss you
and all that," he said, "But then, I am going to be king when
you’ve hung up your hammer. Will mixed feelings do?"
The king raised his dimming eyes to the ceiling. "Come
closer," he wheezed, "There are some things I must tell you
before I die."
The Prince approached the four-poster hopefully, as did
the court scribe, quill in hand. "My son," croaked the king,
"I leave you the rulership of Karak-Ungor" - there was an
uncomfortable shuffling among the king’s retainers at this
point - "And I leave you my war-axe, with the dragon-
etched blade..."
26
TROOP TYPE: Infantry.
SPECIAL RULES:
Ancestral Grudge: Dwarfs hold grudges for a long
time, possibly forever. They have never forgiven the
fall of the strongholds at the hands of the Orcish
enemy. The Dragon Company Hate all types of
greenskins as well as Chaos Dwarfs.
Resolute: Dwarfs fight with a grim determination and
are reluctant to abandon their position. Dwarfs flee and
pursue 2D6-1‖ instead of the normal 2D6‖.
Relentless: A Dwarf on the march is an implacable as
the turning of the years, and just as impossible to halt.
Dwarf units may march even if the enemy is close
enough to inhibit march moves.
Gromril Armour
Armour made from the metal known as gromril is the
toughest and sturdiest in the known world. Known
variously as meteoric iron, silverstone and
hammernought armour, gromril armour is limited to
wealthy Dwarfs and the elite Ironbreakers.
Gromril armour gives a 4+ Armour Save.
"Not the hammer?" interrupted the Prince, a little
peevishly.
"Watch it or you won’t get the axe."
"Sorry."
"That’s better. And along with the axe, I leave you a duty.
Years ago, I swore that I would never rest until the blight
of Chaos was cut out from our race, and the Chaos Dwarfs
were no more. I pass that oath on to you. I also pass on to
you my oath to exterminate the Goblins and their foul
kin. You shall form a warband from the very cream of our
race, and take it out to destroy these two enemies. You
shall not rest until you have completed your task, nor shall
you return to Karak-Ungor, which will be ruled in your
absence by my Chancellor, Gorm the Wise..."
The king was interrupted at this point by a collective sigh
from his retainers, some of whom openly started shaking
hands. They were quelled by a stern glance fom the king,
who carried on with his death-speech as the scribe wrote
furiously. "You shall be called the Dragon Company." he
continued, "Take for your standard a dragon-carved post
from your father’s deathbed..."
CRRRAACK!!!
"Not now!" spluttered the king, from beneath the fallen
canopy of his bed, "Oh, what’s the use?" And with that, he
died.
