1: Wandering Monsters

Roll for Wandering Monsters.

2: NPC

Each is a unique encounter. Treat as Wandering Monsters if you already met that Character in any Dungeon.

1–3

SP6 / T5 / W2 – Captured by Wandering Monsters guarding her. Upon defeating them you may escort her to a city and be rewarded with 100 gold.

4–6

WS7 / T3 / W2 – Defeat her or leave the Room and shut the door within 1 Combat Round or else she teleports away with half of the hero's gold.

7–9

Roll for Wandering Monsters which are guarding him. If the Heroes manage to release him he'll become a Henchman for the current Leader. See Man-at-Arms.

10–12

Wants to join the Leader. If accepted, the Rogue serves as a Sergeant and subtracts -1 from Heroes dice roll for disarming traps. The Heroes may not attack the rogue after joining them. If the Rogue is alive at the end of the Expedition roll a dice, the Rogue:

1–2	Steals all the Heroes' money.
3–4	Steals half the Heroes' money.
5–10	Fails at stealing the Heroes' money.
11–12	Stays in the group. Treated like a Sergeant Henchman from now on.

3: Chasm

Place a Chasm tile in the room then place Wandering Monsters, a door and treasure chest on the other side of the Chasm. You have to decide:

Succeeds if you roll 1 D12 ≤ Speed.

Requires 3m rope. One Hero gets secured by the others with a rope and performs a Heroic Leap (as above). If the Hero fails the others roll ≤ STR. If they succeed they pull the Hero back, if all fail the hero is lost. It counts as 1 Move for all Heroes involved.

Requires 6m rope & 10 Iron Spikes. The Heroes build a bridge. One Hero needs to perform a Sensible Leap (as above) to build it. It takes 1 Exploration Turn.

Shut the door and try your luck elsewhere.

4: Statue

The Statue has a gigantic ruby as one eye. If any Hero tries to remove it, roll a die:

1–2	Curse The Hero's Fate Points are immediately reduced to 0.
3–6	Animated Statue WS9 / T8 / SP6 / W8 / Dam. Dice 5 Attacks the Heroes. May not leave the room.
7–11	Transformation It transforms into a Skaven Warlord. May not leave the room, but can open doors.
12	Nothing happens The Hero removes the ruby without mishap.

The Ruby is worth 400 gold crowns. If the Statue came to life it must be defeated to get the jewel.

5: Rats or Bats

Roll a dice; if the score is even you encounter rats or bats if it is odd:

The Heroes have the following choices:

Rat Poison: If you carry a vial of Rat Poison use it to clear the room (1 Exploration Turn)
Greek Fire: If you carry 2 flasks, use both to clear the room (1 Exploration Turn)
Magic: Cast Flames of Death to clear the room
Fight it out: Choose which Heroes enter the room. With every Expl. Turn each fighting Hero kills D12 rats. If the roll is 1–4 the Hero suffers 1 Wound. The swarm holds 60 Rats. Fate Points may not be used.
Slam the door: The Heroes can leave.

The Heroes have the following choices:

Screech Bug: If you carry one use it to clear the room (1 Exploration Turn). Once used, the bug is discarded.
Greek Fire: If you carry 2 flasks, use both to clear the room (1 Exploration Turn)
Magic: Cast Flames of Death to clear the room
Fight it out: Choose which Heroes enter the room. They will suffer a D12/2 (round up) Wounds which must be divided equally among them (1 Exploration Turn). Fate Points may not be used.
Slam the door: The Heroes can leave.

6: Mould

The room is filled with mould, the Heroes have 3 options how to proceed:

1 flask burns all mould (1 Exploration Turn).

The Heroes tie wet cloth across their faces and attempt to cross the room. Each player has to roll:

1	Deadly Poison – Hero dies or spends a FP
2–6	Poison – Hero looses 1 Wound or spends a FP
7–10	Irritant – Hero's WS –2 for the next combat
11–12	No effect

The Heroes can leave.

7: Mushrooms

There are D12 magic mushrooms which can be picked. Each time one is eaten roll:

Editors comment: 11 seems to be missing in the rulebook. Also it seems the result counts for all mushrooms and not for each eaten. Corrections welcome.
1–2	Deadly Poison Hero dies unless a FP or Healing Potion is spend. They may be used as Rat Poison.
3–4	Sleeping The Hero will be KO'd for D12 rounds.
5–6	Polka Dots No effect, except coloured dots in the Hero's face for some days.
7–8	Strength +1 DD with Hand-to-Hand weapons for one entire combat.
9–10	Speed Speed is doubled for one entire combat.
12	Healing Restores all Wounds.

8: Grate

The GM places the Grate tile on any square in the room. If a Hero moved to it, the room beneath reveals by rolling the Room table. It won't have any doors, but if it is a Quest Room it will have stairs down. The Heroes may lift the Grate to enter the room.

If there are monsters they are prisoners: change any specials to normal ones. They won't have weapons and roll only 1 DD. The Heroes have +2 to their surprise roll – don't add the bonus for the Elf. Per combat turn only one Hero may enter or leave the room.

The Heroes need a rope to get back up. Monster DC may be played for the upper room.

9: Pool

Roll each time someone drinks from it:

Editors comment: I assume you can use a FP to negate the Deadly Poison like in Hazard 6 (Mould) or 7 (Mushrooms).
1	Deadly Poison Hero dies unless a Healing Potion is consumed.
2–4	Sleeping Potion The Hero will be KO'd for D12 rounds.
5–8	Luck The Hero gains +1 FP but just for this Expedition.

3–6	Nothing happens
7–9	Magical Power The next spell doesn't consume components*.
10–11	Healing 1 Wound is healed*
12	Fate The Hero gains 1 FP during this expedition*

11: Trapdoor

Trap
Roll the Traps table using the chest column. It can not be spotted and disarmed.

10-12

The GM can play a Trap Counter whenever the Heroes enter a new Room, enters a square in a passage that hasn't been entered before or open a Chest (Exploration Phase only). In Solo-Play a trap gets triggered when you roll a 1 in the GM-Phase.

Room / Passage	Trap	Spot Chance	Disarm Chance
1	Pit	5	–
2	Crossfire	8	6
3	Portcullis	6	11
4	Blocks	7	11
5	Gas	10	7
6	Mantrap	7	6

8	Fireball	8	9

7	Magic	9	7
8	Fireball	8	9
9	Mindstealer	6	10
10	Guillotine	6	8
11–12	Alarm	7	7

The Hero that triggered the trap has to roll ≥ Spot Chance or it will set off. Spotted traps may be left alone. If 12 was rolled, the Hero gets +1 to all disarm trap rolls in the future. If 1 was rolled the Hero loses 1 extra Wound.

To open a trapped chest or move on a square (and adjacent ones) where the trap was spotted it needs to be disarmed first.

Pit Traps

If the trap was triggered roll a dice, if the result is D12 ≥ 9 take 1 Wound. The Hero must then score D12 ≤ Sp to climb out.

Other may leap over the pit with D12 ≤ Sp. If they fail repeat the routine.

Portcullis

A portcullis drops from the ceiling. The GM places the Portcullis tile in any doorway to this room (or across the room in any diagonal direction). All Heroes that attempt to lift it, add their Str to a D12 roll, the sum has to be ≥ 20. Each attempt takes 1 Exploration Turn. Heroes that are not lifting may roll underneath to the other side. These Heroes should then lift it for those left behind.

Poison Dart

A poison dart hits the Hero that triggered the trap. If 1 DD causes a Wound, Wounds are reduced to 0.

Fireball

Place the Fireball template on the square where the trap was set off. All models under the template suffer 5 DD of injury. For the next 3 turns (counting after GM Phase) the GM may move the template 8 squares in any direction and deal the effect again.

Crossfire

D12/4 (rounded up) crossbow bolts are hitting the Hero that triggered the trap with 3 DD for each bolt. Once triggered, the trap doesn't work anymore.

Gas

A cloud of Gas expelles on the square where the trap was set off and 2 squares adjacent including diagonals in each direction. Heroes must roll: if D12 ≤ their starting Toughness the gas has no effect – subtract -1 for the inner and -2 for the outer ring from the roll. If anyone is affected roll for the gas' effect:

1–6	Mild poison: lose 1 W and for 3 turns you cannot move.
7–8	Nausea: For the rest of the expedition max. move is 8 squares (exploration), half Sp (combat), half WS & BS and -2 S.
9–10	Madness: The GM moves the Hero for 6 turns unless he can be restrained (see Mindstealer below). He may not attack other Heroes.
11	Strong Poison: The Hero takes 8 DD of injury.
12	Deadly Poison: The Hero dies unless a Healing Potion is spent.

Blocks

The Hero dodges if 1 D12 ≤ Sp was rolled and takes 3DD of injury from a glancing blow. If the result was any higher the Hero suffers full 12DD. If the trap is spotted but not disarmed the Heroes may bypass it moving half speed. It will be triggered if they ever pass this way again faster than half speed.

Mantrap

Spike

Shock

Magic

Mindstealer

In case of a monster encounter enter GM Phase and then combat.

3. Gamemaster Phase

Roll a D12; if 1 or 12 draw a DC.
Play a Dungeon Counter
Solo: Roll a D12
- 12: Wandering Monsters
- 1: Trap (choose a random Hero, roll for Traps and use the Room Table. As always: if the traps was spotted it has no effect).

Combat

Starts as soon as Monster enter the table. Ends when all Monsters are slayed or the Heroes escaped. To escape all Heroes need to be out of the LoS at the end of the GM Phase. If the LoS was blocked by closing a door there will be one more combat turn. If the Heroes kill all Monsters, they may loot their bodies according to the Monsters table.

1. Hero Phase

Players may decide which Hero starts
Move equal to the Speed & then attack or open a door or run.
If an unexplored area is entered the new sections are generated at the end of the hero phase.

2. Gamemaster Phase

Move equal to the Speed & attack or run.
Instead of attacking Sentries may open doors adjacent to them to generate new sections at the end of the GM Phase.

Solo Game

Roll a D12; if it's a 1 roll for Wandering Monsters. All Monsters perform a move & attack in this round.

3. End Phase

Upon victory or defeat.

Bodies may be looted (gold + magic items). If the Heroes have escaped all bodies disappear.
Choose new Leader
Continue with a new Exploration Phase

Surprise Roll / Initiative

GM and 1 Hero rolls a D12; the higher roll wins

An Elven/Sentry adds +1 to the roll if they are in LoS. The winner may place the monsters as wanted, the other one may move them 1 square afterwards.

Solo Game

if the Monsters are surprised, they may be moved one square.

Hand-To-Hand Combat

Choose an adjacent target. You can't attack diagonally, except with certain long reach weapons.

1. Hit Roll

Critical hit; grants a free additional attack
Fumble; grants the target a free attack

2. Wound Roll

Further gameplay mechanics

Move equal to the Heroes/Monsters Speed value (not diagonally, not through another model).

Run: Move equal to the Speed value + D12 (1 = you stumble and may not move extra squares). You may not open or close doors while running

If you enter a Death Zone, movement stops

Squares adjacent to a model (not diagonally, except for certain long reach weapons)

Passing through an enemies DZ stops movement and can only be continued in the next round.
If one square of a models death zone is already focused, the other squares can be passed.
Being in a DZ you cannot open or close doors and chests or cast Flames of the Pheonix.

May be played only by the Gamemaster. See page 25 in the rulebook for more.

Wandering Monsters – Play at the end of the Exploration Phase
Ambush – Play at the start of any combat turn
Fate Point, Escape – Play any time during a combat turn
Character Counter – Play any time when placing monsters
Trap – If a Hero opens a chest or steps on a square that has not been entered before

To escape all Heroes need to be out of the LoS at the end of the GM Phase. If the LoS was blocked by closing a door there will be one more combat turn..

Fate Points may not be passed. Can be used to:

Negate all damage suffered in a turn,
convert a failed dice roll into a successful one (i.e. hit rolls, ability checks, ...),
to negate the effects of poison.

A Henchman or Monster is killed when Wounds score 0 or below. Heroes are merely K.O. when the wounds score 0 and die when it falls any lower – When KO place the model on it's side. It is unable to act but can defend with a WS 1 if attacked. An adjacent Hero can drag the vicim 3 squares instead of moving normally. A KO'd Hero can be healed by a Heal Spell or with a Healing Potion given by any Hero or Henchman adjacent - as long as neither character is in an opponents Death Zone. It can be also carried in the Exploration Phase for 6 squares per turn.
