NecroHeim

The goal of this project is to combine elements of the 2017 release of Necromunda with Mordheim.  To use this document a familiarity with both games will be needed.

 

The basis of the game is Mordheim but with elements of Necromunda grafted on:

What you will need (pg 5):

Add: 3x5 Cards for each hero and henchman group

Add to markers: markers can be placed on cards to prevent clutter.  A new kind of marker is needed

Characteristics

Add to Characteristic Tests: A few attributes are written as #+, when taking a test with these skills you wish to roll above, not below the attribute

Turn (pg 8)

Remove this page, replace with page 45 of Necromunda Underhive.  Remove all future references to phases.  During the Priority Phase you can add the initiative of your highest leadership model (Your “Leader”) to the priority phase

Henchman groups are activated as a single character

Movement (pg 9-12)

The movement rules are written based on the phases, see the appendix for how various aspects are now Actions in the Action phase.  As a general rule all modifiers are still in effect, but now occur when a character is activated (so a compulsory move happens when the fighter is activated, not at the start of the turn).   Reference Index for Intercept rules.

Shooting, Close Combat

Replace Closest shot and cover rules with Necromunda rules, replace character BS Score with the base to hit number from chart on page 14

Replace to wound chart with dice table from Necromunda. 

Modify Knocked down as follows: When a character is knocked down they cannot move, except to make the crawl maneuver, furthermore they are -2 WS.

Replace Parry with the Parry rules from Necromunda

Leadership & Psychology

The rout test: Use the rules for bottle tests

 

Use Necromunda end phase, but the following changes: Bottle tests are called rout tests.

Do not use the recovery tests.  All cool checks are based on leadership (calculate LD+ as 14 - Ld stat on original profile)

Leadership aura becomes 12” (any increases should be given a +6”).  All heroes get an aura of 6”

All alone checks happen when a character is activated

Fear: Failed fear rolls cause a -2 WS instead of requiring a 6

Frenzied: Gives +1 attack, instead of doubling the attacks

Stupidity: A failed stupidity test causes the loss of one action

Weapons

Crossbows require the reload action after every firing, this replaces move and shoot

Slings, Repeater Crossbow: Fire twice changes the action to Shoot (simple): Reload (1)

Thrown Weapon: Aim is a free action, replaces perfect balance

Blackpower Weapons: Require two reload actions to reload weapon.  Reload must happen after every shot.  A brace of pistols removes this limitation: Reload (2), Brace Reload (1)

Handguns & Long riffle have Reload (3): Requiring 3 reload actions to reload the weapon

 

 

 

------------Apendix--------

Following actions from necromunda.  Pinned is the same as knocked down, Serious injuries count as stunned

Move, shoot, aim, charge, Take cover, Coup de grace, Fight, retreat

Clear Head (double): Recover from Stunned

Hide (Standard) per the rules in mordheim, a fighter may shoot prior to hiding, but once hidden cannot take any other action.

Intercept (Double):  A character may interrupt the opponents turn to intercept a charge, This is similar to the Charge action except that the movement is reduced to 1/2 and must cross the path of the fighter charging.  The original charging character iss still considered charging for order of operations.

Cast (Standard): Wizards only, may cast a spell per the rules in Mordheim
