FIELD REPAIR
As arrows zip over your head, and an Orc stumbles past you, you force yourself to concentrate on repairing this infernal device with what scrap materials you have at hand.

Your Warrior can attempt to repair a device using Spare Parts in the middle of an adventure. This skill may be used once per turn, during which the Engineer may take no other action nor move. Roll 1D6. On a roll of 1, the attempt fails utterly, and the Spare Parts are wasted to no effect. On a roll of 6, the device is repaired, using up the Spare Parts in the process. On any other roll, the Engineer is unable to complete repairs for this turn, but does not use up the Spare Parts in the process, and may try again in subsequent turns.

3

HOCHLAND LONG RIFLE
This long-barrelled weapon is developed from the hunting rifles of Hochland, and is very accurate over great distances.

The Hochland Long Rifle comes with enough gunpowder and shot to last for a single adventure. For subsequent adventures, additional gunpowder and shot must be purchased at the Gunsmith. This weapon requires two hands to operate, and the Engineer may not move during any turn in which he fires. The Long Rifle inflicts normal damage with a Strength of 4, ignoring the first point of armor, and may only be fired once per turn. The Engineer gains a +1 to his BS roll while using the Hochland Long Rifle, thanks to its accuracy, and furthermore gains an additional +1 to offset penalties for Difficult Shots (see p. 163 of the Roleplay Book).

This is a fairly accurate weapon, and therefore does not have a chance of jamming. Still, the School of Engineers would like to see how it holds up in underground environments.

4

BLUNDERBUSS
This flanged firearm fires a hail of shot consisting of rusty bolts, nails and other scrap metal upon the enemies of the Empire.

The Blunderbuss is operated in much the same way as the Chaos Dwarf Blunderbusses described on p. 93 of the Roleplay Book. Select a direction in which to fire the Blunderbuss, and roll a single to-hit roll to see if all or none of the possible targets in that direction are hit. On a miss, the shot scatters wide and hits nothing. On a hit, though, all targets in the chosen direction of the Engineer are struck. (For purpose of determining effect in areas larger than an Objective Room, consider that the Blunderbuss has a maximum area of effect of 8x8 -- a rather appreciable blast!) Note that ALL possible targets will be hit in the chosen direction, whether friend or foe! (Unlike the Chaos Dwarves, the Engineer has no arcane method for getting his comrades out of the way of the blast.)

All targets struck suffer 1D6 Wounds, modified for Toughness and armor.

This is a bit of an unreliable device, not quite up to Chaos Dwarf specifications, and will misfire on a natural roll of 1 to hit. If this happens, the device jams and explodes, causing 1D6 Wounds to the Engineer (modified for Toughness and armor), and rendering the Blunderbuss unusable until it can be repaired using Spare Parts.

The Blunderbuss comes with enough Gunpowder to last for an entire adventure. Since it uses bits of scrap metal, nails and other bits which are easily procured, Shot is not required for this weapon.

5

MANCATCHER
This wicked polearm has an iron collar ringed with spring-loaded spikes, which can be slipped over an enemy's head to break his neck and kill him instantly.

This odd polearm may be used to Attack in Ranks ... but unfortunately it is ineffective when attempting to attack adjacent targets! Therefore, any target must be exactly two spaces away to be attacked with the Mancatcher. Upon a successful hit, roll 1D6. If this number is greater than the target's starting Toughness, the target's neck is broken, killing him instantly! This weapon is ineffective against Ethereal beings, the Undead, Daemons, small creatures (Giant Bats, Giant Rats, Snotlings), and those without a real neck, or with multiple heads (such as Giant Spiders or Hydras, respectively). Also, Dragons are far too large to be trapped by this device.

The target's number of Wounds or any armor is of no help in defending against this device.

6

REPEATER PISTOL
This is a smaller version of the Repeater Hand Gun, which may be fired in one hand, leaving the other hand free to wield a sword. 

The Repeater Pistol has a maximum range of 10 spaces. Upon a successful hit, it inflicts 1D6+3 Wounds, ignoring the first point of armor. Furthermore, if a shot hits, the Hand Gun may immediately fire again, either at the same target or a different target within 2 spaces of the last one. Upon another successful hit, this may be done again, up to 6 shots per turn.

The Engineer may not move and fire with this weapon in the same turn. On any roll of 1 to hit, the gun has jammed, and a full turn (with no other actions) must be spent to clear the chamber before it can be fired again.

The gun comes with enough powder and shot to last for one adventure. Additional units of powder and shot must be bought at the Gunsmith for subsequent adventures.

Unlike the Repeater Handgun, the Repeater Pistol may be used in hand-to- hand combat. When using it against an adjacent target, make a WS roll to hit, rather than a BS hit. If the Engineer has more than one Attack per turn, he may use his first attack with the Pistol, and any remaining attacks with a sword or other one-handed hand-to-hand weapon.

(Note that this is an exception to the normal rules concerning "backup" weapons. The Engineer may go into combat armed with the Pistol and one off- hand weapon, but he cannot switch to another set of weapons in the middle of the combat.)

VON TROPP'S SPRING-ASSISTED CHAIN LASSO
Your comrades couldn't help but snicker as you carried this rattling, unseemly device slung over your back through the dungeon. However, they've gained a fair measure of respect now that you've managed to single-handedly tangle a Minotaur... 

This two-handed device may be used to launch a "chain lasso" to tangle a single opponent, rendering it incapable of movement. A successful BS roll to hit is required to hit the target. The Engineer may not move or take any other actions (or make other attacks) during any turn in which he uses this device. It has a maximum range of 8 spaces.

Upon a successful hit, the target is bound by the chain, and may not make any attacks, movement or take any other actions for the remainder of this turn. At the start of subsequent turns, he may attempt to break free by rolling 1D6 and adding it to his Strength. If he comes up with a total of 9 or more, he succeeds in breaking the chain, and may attack, move or make other actions that turn normally.

The Rule of 1 and 6 does not apply here. If the target is so strong that he can break free even if he rolls a 1, or so weak that he couldn't break free even on a roll of 6, so be it. Some targets have no hope of escaping it by brute force, while others have no real fear of it. Ethereal beings and Daemons are unaffected by this weapon, not being sufficiently substantial to be trapped by it.

The chain may only be launched once per battle, and if the target breaks free, it must be repaired using Spare Parts before it can be used again. Furthermore, if it is used in a battle, in order to use it again the Engineer must spend a full turn (during which he may do nothing else) packing the chain lasso back into its launching cylinder.

This device requires no gunpowder, shot or other ammunition to use in the dungeon.

KURSTEIN'S WHIRLING BLADE OF DOOM
You crank and crank at the handle of this device, nervous sweat gathering on your brow as the Minotaur lumbers closer. Suddenly, though, the machine sputters and coughs, and suddenly the teeth spin along the blade's length with an ear-shattering buzzing sound. Adjusting your earplugs, you approach, grinning, as the Minotaur eyes the infernal creation with a look of abject terror...

This strange sword-machine requires two hands to operate. If used as a regular weapon, due to its unwieldy bulk, it may inflict Normal Damage, but the Engineer suffers a -1 penalty on all rolls to hit (though he may still hit on a natural roll of 6).

However, if he wishes to start it up, at the start of each turn he may pull on the starting cord. On a roll of 4+ on 1D6, the machine buzzes to life. He may use it as a normal hand-to-hand weapon during this turn, inflicting 2D6 Wounds (plus his Strength) per hit. On a natural roll of 6 to hit, he may ignore armor on the target, as the blade chews its way through the metal.

If he fails to start the device, then he may simply try again in subsequent turns, and he may still act normally for this turn.

Once the device is started, at the start of each subsequent turn roll 1D6 and consult the following chart:

After this roll is made at the start of each turn, the Engineer may choose to immediately turn the device off (though he may not do so if he is going to use it for this turn), though he may of course attempt to start it again in subsequent turns.

VAN BUREN'S STEAMING IRON GAUNTLET OF FURY
With a shrieking whistle and a puff of steam, you ram the oversized gauntlet into your enemy, assisted by the wonders of Steam Technology.

This "gauntlet" may be worn over one arm, allowing your Warrior to make powerful punches against your enemies. When using the Gauntlet, your Warrior may make a single Power Punch per turn which inflicts Normal Damage, plus an additional 1D6 Wounds, ignoring armor. This attack cannot cause a Death Blow. Roll 1D6 after each attack using this weapon.

As this monstrosity works on the power of steam, it does not require any special fuels or ammunition to work normally. The Engineer may also choose to use the Gauntlet as a regular pummelling weapon, without using the Power Punch ability. In this regard, it is a bit clumsy, inflicting Normal Damage, but with a -1 to hit, and only allowing one Attack per turn. Hence, it's typically wise to have an off-hand weapon handy for those occasions when the Gauntlet seizes up.

10

GEOBALDI'S SWINGING SPIKED JUGGERNAUT
Aided by mechanically-shifting counterweights, you swing the pole about, sweeping the huge spiked ball in a wide arc about yourself. Your opponents scarcely have time to think of dodging before the solid device relentlessly slams into them.

This two-handed weapon looks like an oversized ball-and-chain, but it is cleverly counterweighted such that the Engineer can make a great sweeping attack per turn. With this weapon, he may start by attacking a single adjacent model, though his chances to hit are not determined normally.

Rather than the Engineer rolling to hit, his target must instead make an Initiative test, with a target roll of 9. The Rule of 1 and 6 applies here, in that any natural roll of 1 will automatically fail, and any roll of 6 will automatically succeed. If he passes his test, he dodges the swinging ball. If not, however, he is hit, taking Normal Damage. If he should roll a natural 1 while attempting to dodge, he is hit so squarely that the attack ignores Toughness and armor. (Any target who is incapable of moving, such as someone caught in a web, is automatically hit as if they had rolled a 1 to dodge.)

Regardless of whether or not this target was hit, or how much damage it took, the ball keeps swinging, moving into the next space adjacent to the Warrior and to the previous target space, and any model here must roll to get out of the way or be automatically hit. Even if there are no intervening models in some of these spaces, the ball completes a complete arc in a circle around the Warrior, attacking all 8 adjacent spaces. He cannot choose to end his swing before that point -- If there are any allies adjacent to him, he simply has a chance of hitting his friends as well.

If one of these spaces should be occupied by a solid obstacle, such as a wall, then the ball is going to come to a premature stop as soon as it hits this space. Furthermore, the counterweights are so jarred by the impact that their housing shatters, and this weapon cannot be used again until repaired using Spare Parts.

At the end of the swing, roll 1D6 as the Warrior recovers his weapon. On a roll of 1, the counterweights snap badly out of place, throwing the Warrior off weight so that his device goes flying. He cannot retrieve the weapon until the current combat has been completed, with all monsters in play defeated. On any other roll, though, he is able to finish his attack normally.

This takes all of the Engineer's attacks, so if he has additional Attacks left over, he cannot use them for another swing or to use another weapon this turn. Due to the precarious balance of this weapon, the Engineer cannot move and attack in the same turn, and he /must/ be on solid ground. (He can't, for instance, use this while on the Firechasm bridge.)

FRAGONARD'S DREADFUL ENSNARING HOOK HALBERD
The polearm looks ordinary enough, and at first it seems that you are a lousy aim with it, missing your target widely. However, with a flick of the wrist, you bring the "hook" toward your opponent, which mechanically pops out to snare your enemy's leg, then pops back in again, knocking him off his feet.
 
While bearing this weapon, your Warrior is at -2 Initiative, and cannot use a shield (or second-hand weapon) at the same time. He may inflict Normal Damage with this weapon, with a +1 to Strength, and can Attack in Ranks, as with a normal Halberd.

However, an added bonus to this weapon is the mechanical hook. This weapon may be used as many times per turn as your Warrior has Attacks. However, once per turn, in addition to a regular attack against a target, whether that attack strikes or not, your Warrior may choose to use the mechanical hook in an attempt to trip the opponent as he pulls his weapon back again. This maneuver does not work for Large Monsters or Ethereal beings.

Make a WS test, with a target value of 7. If successful, your Warrior manages to hook his opponent's leg (or grab something else) to set him off balance. If you roll a natural 1, the hook has jammed, and cannot be fixed until after all monsters in play have been defeated, and the Engineer can spend a full turn (during which he may do nothing else) reassembling the mechanism.

If he passes his test, the target must then make an Initiative test (target value of 7) to keep from falling. If he fails his test, he trips and falls, losing the opportunity to move during his next turn, as well as one Attack. (If he only had one Attack to begin with, this means he can't attack at all for this turn!)

If the target remains standing or the Engineer fails his WS test, then this special attack does nothing. If there are any remaining Attacks for this turn, they may still be made normally, though this special hook attack cannot be used again this turn.

12

DELAUGH'S MARVELOUS ARM OF LONG-REACHING
Cranking the two handles, you send the claw shooting out, attached to a metal arm that telescopes outward, thrusting at your (supposedly) well-protected enemy at a distance.

With this two-handed device, your Warrior may make attacks either in hand- to-hand or at a distance, up to 4 spaces away. Only one attack per turn may be made using this weapon, and as it uses both hands, an off-hand weapon cannot be used during the same turn.

When attacking an adjacent target, make a normal roll to hit, inflicting Normal Damage. When attacking a target at range, make a BS roll to hit, inflicting Normal Damage if successful. However, on any natural roll of 1 to hit at range, the device manages to fall apart while shooting out, clanging in several pieces on the floor. It cannot be retrieved until the end of combat, when all monsters in play have been defeated, and requires a full turn to reassemble it, during which the Engineer may not do anything else.

This device can also be used (at the GM's discretion), to grab items at a distance, or even to hand an item to someone else or drop it at another location across the room! If this is done outside of combat (i.e., there are no monsters present) then this can be done automatically without need for a roll (unless the GM determines that the task is particularly complex or requires precision -- such as if the object being snared happens to be very fragile, for instance). In combat, however, a BS roll to hit is required, with -1 to the roll for each space away (beyond 1) that the object or target is located. (i.e. 2 spaces away = -1 to the roll. 3 spaces away = -2 to the roll. 4 spaces away (maximum) = -3 to the roll. Even with this penalty, a natural roll of 6 always succeeds.) When used in combat, there is still a chance of the device falling apart, if a natural 1 is rolled to "hit".
