Pick Up Archives Of The Empire II For Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play

Cubicle 7 has put together a brand new book for those playing games in the grimdark of Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play. Archives Of The Empire II introduces loads of new options into your roleplaying games.
Archives Of The Empire Volume II // Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play
Included within this book you'll find options for those wanting to play as an Ogre in their games of Warhammer Fantasy-Roleplay. You'll find careers like the Ogre Butcher who brings strange twisted magic to the tabletop.
- Ogres of the Empire: Two chapters dedicated to Ogres, their place in the Empire, and their place at the gaming table. Included are three new careers, including the fearsome Ogre Butcher, who wields the magic of the Great Maw with bloody intent.
- Star Signs and Astrology: Some say their fate is written in the stars, while others find their future in the gutter. This chapter provides a description of the star signs that dot the heavens of the Old World, along with the meaning that people invest in them.
- Magical Items: Though magic items are rare in the Old World, they are coveted and powerful things. This chapter provides rules for generating magic weapons, armour, and stranger devices.
- The Great Hospice: A retreat from the perils of the world, the Great Hospice provides a refuge for those who need it — and can afford it. Just north of Altdorf, the Hospice is a detailed location with maps, NPCs, plot hooks, and more.
- Theatre of War: Though combat is a common feature of WFRP games, open warfare is rarely explored. This chapter provides rules for creating a cinematic battle in which competent Characters can influence the outcome.
I also really like the addition of more colour and background for The Old World. The exploration of star signs and astrology is fascinating as is the addition of more rules for covering cinematic battles.
These kinds of books are great for those who want to give their players more things to do. This particular series of books is also great for those who perhaps didn't grow up with Warhammer Fantasy Battles and want more information on how it all ticks!
You can currently pre-order the physical version of the book and download the PDF right now!

Player characters will be screaming “this belongs into a museum!”
In Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play even touching a magical item would probably end up turning someone into a gibbering mess; even the good items haha
So… better an “experts are working on it” boxing then?
Ooh I wonder if they have a hole’y grail?
This sounds great, covers a lot of stuff that hasn’t been dealt with in previous editions.
