Hi

Again me with noob question.

What´s the number of weapon you may wear in a game.


For example my Champion having ...X-bow, Sword, Dagger and Buckler....is this allowed ?

I could not find a rule or description that were giving me some information on that.

Would it be possible to carry Sword, Daggger, Pistole and X-bow at once....and deciding depending on the situation which weapon to wield ? (taking X-bow on long distance, Pistole at closer range, Sword and Dagger when charging and finally Sword and Buckler when getting charged)

Got a nice Marienburger Warband which has quite a lot of weapon options to take ;)

Cheers
Claus

Each model is allowed 2 close combat and 2 shooting weapons per the book.

If a gaming group feels different then work it out.

I guess the dagger would not count towards the 2 combat weapon limit, would it?

And does it take time to change the weapons according to the rules?

Great Game!

Actually, this question was posed about the dagger in an old FAQ and the answer was it does not count against the max. As long as it is your "free" dagger.

O.K. it´s clear for weapons.

So do Shields/Buckler count towards this limit or can they also be carried in addition ?

Actually, I do not believe anything is mentioned on shields and bucklers. You can carry a few if you want but they don't add any extra benefits for having more. That is why the "equipment stash" spot is put on the Mordheim Roster sheet.
