Dark Elf Corsairs [Mousillon setting].pdf

DARK ELF CORSAIRS

The dreaded Dark Elven Corsairs are creatures of nightmare, spoken of in hushed

whispers of abject terror. There are few that haven't heard of the dreadful raids the dark

clad Elven pirates perform, striking out with lightning speed and ferocity in the middle of

the night. Dread legends speak of their horrific slave raids, striking almost anywhere and

without warning. It is commonly known that coastal regions are especially prone to

attack, as the maligned Druchii strike out from their titanic Black arks. Tales abound of

small raiding parties, sallying forth from the floating fortresses to spread fear, terror,

and reap prisoners to take back to their nightmarish realm where unspeakable attrocities

occur.

These hellish raiding parties are undertaken by elves of higher rank on the ships,

normally under leadership of a young captain. To them, sewing terror is a pleasurable

hobby, and they raid purely for personal gain. The Noble in command of their fortress

vessels even hires out 'man' power to these raiding bands, as long as appropriate

gratitude is shown.

CORSAIR SPECIAL SKILLS

Dark Elf Corsairs with the Special Skills available to them may choose to use the

following Skill list instead of any of the standard Skill tables available to them.

Fey Quickness: The Dark Elf has inhuman agility and as such can avoid melee or missile

attacks on a roll of 6. This save can be combined with Dodge or Step aside for a 4+ save

in the relevant area.

Furious charge: The Dark Elf feels invincible, he adds one attack when he charges.

Excellent Sight: By training his eyesight for years the Dark Elf can spot hidden enemy

models up to twice as far away as normal warriors.

Looting: Looting is an art and certain Dark Elves understand to find even the most

expensive pieces in the shortest time. Once per battle you may try to loot a KD/St

character. Determine at random which item he takes (daggers do not count)

Infiltration: The Dark Elf is an expert in infiltrating behind enemy lines. Therefore he is

always deployed last, anywhere out of sight of the enemy. If both players have infiltrate,

roll 1d6. Lowest roll deploys first.

HEROES

1 CAPTAIN ...................70 gc

The Captain of each galley is accountable to the Nobles aboard the Black Arks for the

performance of his crew at sea and the raids made ashore.

Captain 5 4 5 3 3 1 6 1 9

Weapons/Armour: Your Captain may be equipped from the Reavers equipment list.

SPECIAL RULES:

Leader: Any warrior within 6" of the Captain may use his Leadership value when taking

Leadership tests.

Hardened: Seen everything done everything… It makes him immune to fear.

Slaver: Any opponent, that has the bad fortune to be captured, will await only the whip

of the slave master… if he is lucky. Any captured result may only be dealt with, in the

sold to slavery option.

0-2 REAVERS ...................40 gc

These weapon masters are next in command after the Captain of the galley. They direct

units of corsairs in boarding actions and shore raids.

0-1 BLOOD BLADE ...................30 gc

A Blood Blade is an apprentice Corsair, of noble birth, but yet unproven in battle. Blood

Blades derive their title from the blood pack they make with their captain, drawing their

dagger across their wrists and letting the blood flow till the Captain stops it by wrapping

his hands around the cuts, (usually after the initiate has passed out). Thus having been

initiated and bonded the Blood Blade serves in whatever capacity the Captain

commands, learning the art of raiding until his Captain feels he is ready to become a

Reaver when a position "becomes" available.

0-1 SPECIALIST ...................Special

A galley Captain may request one of the following specialists to accompany his crew

during a raid. As long as the specialist returns to the Black Ark unharmed and the proper

tribute for the Witch King is paid (half of the plunderings of the raid), there is no hiring

cost. However, if something should befall the specialist in question, a fine is levied

against the Captain for the loss of such a valuable asset of the Black Ark.

SPECIAL RULES:

Hiring Fee: A specialist is free to hire before a battle. However, proper payment is

expected for the services of the warrior after the battle (with a proportion going to the

Witch King himself). Therefore, a warband that employs the services of a specialist must

pay half of their earnings (i.e. gold crowns, rounding up) in tax. Furthermore, if

something should befall the specialist in question, a fine is levied against the Captain for

the loss of such a valuable asset of the Black Ark. This fee is listed after the specialist

type, and is payed on top of the 50% contribution. Should a warband not have enough to

pay the fine immediately, they may spend no other gold crowns in subsequent battles

until the debt is payed off. A warband may not use a Specialist while it is in debt.

Provisory Ally: During battle, a Specialist acts like an ordinary member of the warband

(contributing to route totals, Captain's Ld etc.). A specialist will temporarily add +10

points to the warband (for purposes of underdog and such). They will take part in the

exploration phase assuming they survived the battle. However, after the battle the

Specialist returns to the Black Ark and effectively leaves the warband. A Captain may

not request the same specialist for two raids in a row.

In Demand: Specialists are highly in demand, and dispatched all over the world to assist

with raiding parties. As such, a warband is unlikely to employ the services of the same

warrior, rather receiving the aid of another in his or her field. To reflect this, a Specialist

will not gain any experience, as it is unlikely to be the same one (of course, feel free to

develope your own character background and model for repeated use). Also, a Specialist

must be equipped exactly as they are listed.
