Some new items to buy at the Guildmasters
Great Axe
This two-handed weapon is of superb manufacture. When used, you roll an extra
damage dice, discarding the one that scores the least. In addition if any of the
dice come up with a double add all the dice together (do not discard one) unless
it is a double 1, in which case you have stumbled and your turn is over.
Cost: 450 Gold
Stock Roll 6
Dwarf Warhammer
The two-handed version of the popular weapon is heavier, but deals a greater
blow. In the same way as the Great Axe, you roll an extra dice, discarding the
lowest, and adding them up on the roll of a double. However, if you score a
natural 6 'To Hit', add up all the dice anyway, unless you roll a double 1, in
which case you trip up as normal.
Cost: 650 Gold
Stock Roll 8
Pick-axe
The Pickaxe is a useful tool that can be used equally well as a weapon. Designed
to break through rocks, it ignores a number of points of armour equal to your
battle level on a 'To Hit' roll of 6+. However, it is not designed to be used in
battle, and is wielded at -2 'To Hit'. In addition it allows you to dig through
a cave-in if you do nothing else for d6 turns.
Cost: 350 Gold
Stock Roll 5
Dwarf Mail
Dwarf Mail is different to human chain-mail in that it is lighter and typically
better made. It gives a +1 Toughness bonus. If worn in addition to furs, it
incurs a -1 'To Hit' penalty.
Cost: 600 Gold
Stock Roll 7
Dwarf Shield
This small buckler shield attaches to the forearm of the Dwarf and is useful for
fending off blows while using the traditional two-handed weapons of the Dwarfs.
This shield may be used with two-handed weapons, but if so the weapons are at -1
Strength and -1 'To Hit'. The Dwarf Shield gives a +1 Toughness bonus, subject
to ordinary shield limitations. In addition, once per turn, the dwarf can reduce
the effect of an enemy attack that hits. Roll an extra Damage Dice for the
attack, and discard the highest one. Only one Dwarf Shield may be used. Bows and
other shields cannot be used in conjunction with a Dwarf Shield, as usual.
Cost: 700 Gold
