Henchmen (bought in groups of 1-5)

• 3+ . Miners

50 gold crowns to hire

Miners are rightly the bedrock of any Dwarf Prospectors warband, the hard-working muscle that keeps the whole venture grinding forward. In the armies of the Karaks they serve as irregular regiments beside Clan Warriors, but they march to battle with the same pride, armed much as they toil: the trusted Great Pickaxe! For these stonebreaker-and-bonebreaker Guild employees, the ruins of Mordheim are simply another dig-site (one thick with warpstone).

Weapons/Armour. Dwarven Torchrig and the trusted Great Pickaxe! What did you expect?! Miners may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Dwarf Prospectors Henchmen equipment list.

• 0 – 5 . Sappers

40 gold crowns to hire

It’s never easy to make the most stubborn folk in the Old World agree, especially when the Miners Guild and the Engineers Guild are forced to work side by side. Double corporations, double stubbornness…yet Sappers are indispensable to any Dwarf Prospectors warband and a healthy dose of competition (and many tankards up for grabs) often proves a strong motivation when treasure waits to be dug out or blown out.

Weapons/Armour. Sappers may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Dwarf Prospectors Henchmen equipment list. Sappers may be equipped with Sapper-shovel-spear and (with an Old Powdermaster hired) may be equipped with Blasting Charge as well.

SPECIAL RULES

Rookie of Demolitions. In his hands, Fire Bombs count as Blasting Charges. When throwing a Blasting Charge or firing a blackpowder weapon, if the Sapper rolls a 1 to hit, a misfire is triggered! Roll a second die and on a 4+ the misfire is ignored. If the second roll also fails, the Blasting Charge explodes just as if the Sapper had struck himself or consult the Blackpowder Weapon Misfires chart. All things considered, it’s true: “demolition is their mission: junior level” yet even a fresh hand suffers when Valaya refuses her blessing.

• 0 – 5 . Tunnel Fighters

40 gold crowns to hire

For centuries, the Incursions of Chaos have eaten away the World’s Edge Mountains Holds, so in response the Dwarfs forged and fielded troops specialized in tunnel fighting. The name was fairly self-explanatory, after all. Standing between Clan Warriors and the elite Ironbreakers, Tunnel Fighters are veterans of underground warfare, far more skilled than the already impressive Dawi average. To Manlings however, the difference is almost laughable!

Weapons/Armour. Tunnel Fighters may be equipped only with hand-to-hand combat weapons and armour chosen from the Dwarf Prospectors Henchmen equipment list. Tunnel Fighters may be equipped with Shields.

SPECIAL RULES

Gromril Calling. Some Tunnel Fighters now wear armour like a second beard or feel at home in dungeons, catacombs, sewers and mines (naturally). Ready to join the ranks of the hardest warriors! When a Tunnel Fighter rolls “The Lad’s Got Talent” may choose to become an Ironbreaker. Note, thus the warband may have more than two Ironbreakers.

• Boki-Beardlings

25 gold crowns to hire

Boki by birth and Beardlings by age! These young miners haven’t soaked half their whiskers in proper Dwarven Ale yet, but they’ll heft weapons twice their size just to squeeze a nod out of the Longbeards. And should “Boki” confuse you, that’s only because you don’t live beneath the mountains. It’s Dwarven slang for miners, nothing more.

Weapons/Armour. Boki-Beardlings may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Dwarf Prospectors Henchmen equipment list.
