Tabletop Geeks

I’m sure many of you have noticed already but I added a new page to our site, the Mordheim Roster Builder. The Roster Builder is a tool that lets you create and modify warbands directly through the website, with it auto-calculating things like rating, gold, etc. It IS a work in progress, so it’s not 100% functional yet. There should be enough there to create a starting warband for most of the official warbands and a few of the unofficial ones as well.

To use the Roster Builder, simply select the warband you want to use from the dropdown list. It will fill in all the Hero and Henchman dropdown boxes and you may then fill in your army as you wish, including adding equipment and special things like mutations. It will auto-calculate your warband rating and your gold. It will also prevent you from making illegal changes, such as adding too many of a hero or henchman, or spending too much gold.

If you would rather freely edit without worrying about gold costs you can simply click the “Free Edit” button under the gold crowns. This will stop calculating your gold so you can add/remove without the need to worry about costs. It will still restrict you from adding too many of a certain type of hero or henchman, and enforce any other specific rules.

Again, this is a work in progress so expect to see changes. Currently you can not edit experience, add skills, or other non-starting warband related things, but expect that to change soon. The main things I am working on right now are ways to export your warband (including a printer friendly version) as well as the ability to use it for more than starting warbands (ie adding injuries, skills, etc). If you have any questions, suggestions, or bugs to report please contact us.

And don’t forget to keep an eye out for the updates!
