Oathsworn Look To Add FreeLances Into Burrows & Badgers
February 17, 2020 by brennon
Oathsworn Miniatures recently shared one of the elements which got cut from the release of Burrows & Badgers due to space. FreeLances were originally part of the rules back during the early days and these Dramatis Personae will be making a return as part of a new supplement due for release at Salute.
FreeLances, as described above are a lot like the hired swords and such that you could get in skirmish games like Mordheim and Necromunda. They have a cost in both Gold and Fate Points meaning that you can alternate how you add these big named characters into your warband roster.
As well as that, you can also get your hands on FreeLances if you've lost game after game. I really like this rule as it helps those struggling warbands get back into the fighting and hold their own against your friends. Being someone who hasn't ever had the best luck when it comes to skirmish games in a campaign setting, I welcome this rule wholeheartedly.
The idea from Oathsworn is that this new option for Burrows & Badgers will get added as part of The Warren Percy Affair which will bring with it a bunch of new scenarios to play through too.

They’ve been tweaked a bit now, following feedback from the Facebook Group… always best to have a good number of people give any new rules a look over. It saves a lot of bother in the long run! 🙂
Liking the look of these, I’ve still not managed to get a game of Burrows and Badgers. Ive had all my models painted for a while. I’m gonna have to get my wife to play, especially as its snag-a-normie too!!!
