WFB3 [Warfork Fantasy Battles] The Battle for Arduthrond Glade

[MichaelStockin]

I too only really use the damage from later editions.
I use the 3rd edition turning circles and movement rules.
But I do like the 4th edition wounds and toughness.

Though when shooting at siege engines I always assume the crew are hit rather than the machine.
But the crew are at -1 to be hit.

It is a bit messy to be honest....

Though when shooting at siege engines I always assume the crew are hit rather than the machine.
But the crew are at -1 to be hit.

Here I use mostly the 5e mechanic:

Ranged combat attacks against Engines of War​

​

Ranged combat attacks may be directed against an​

engine of war. Attacks are worked out against the​

entire model and any hits scored are randomized​

against the crew and the engine of war.​

​

Engines of war and their crews generally constitute a​

large target, and so the attackers benefit from a +1​

'to hit' bonus for WSK based attacks.​

​

Once hits have been established, randomize where​

they strike on the following chart. If either all crew ​

are slain or have fled, or once the engine of war is​

destroyed, only the remaining part can be hit and no​

randomization takes place.​

​

[1d6] Ranged Combat Attacks Randomization​

1-4​

Engine of war hit, follow the rules for 'Resolving ​

the Effects of Hits'.​

5-6​

Crew hit, follow the rules for 'Resolving the ​

Effects of Hits'.​

​

Templates or weapon paths, like from a cannon, hit​

whatever they touch, but can also only damage/kill what​

they touch. A template never touches "the crew", but only​

specific crew members which are covered by the template,​

those that are not cannot be killed.​

Also a very valid approach.
The beauty of non-tournament games is you can do whatever you feel like!!
