Historical notes: This skirmish was fought between Dark Elf Raiders and Skaven of

Clan Pestilens. In the year 2412 the coast of Bretonnia was beset by one of the

notorious Black Arks of the Dark Elves. The Elves were making frequent raids on

small villages collecting slaves to man their galley ships. One raiding party landed at

the derelict wharf of Mousillon and encountered the vile denizens of the wharf

district, the plague bearing Skaven of Clan Pestilens.

Terrain

Each player takes it in turn to place a piece of terrain, either a ruined building, tower,

or other similar item. As last, one side is dedicated the wharf. We suggest that the

terrain is set up within an area roughly 4’ x 4’.

Warbands

Each player rolls a dice. Whoever rolls highest chooses who sets up first. The first

player then has then to set up on the side which is the Wharf, placing all his warriors

within 10” of that edge. His opponent then sets up within 8” of the opposite edge.

Special Rules

The Wharf: The wharf counts as water after the battle starts. Character may consider

6” from the edge as water. Any character entering the water will be considered

drowned on D6 roll of 1-2. Searching for bodies is impossible.

Starting the Game

Both players roll a D6. The higher scoring player takes the first turn.

Ending the Game

When one of the warbands fails its Rout test, the game ends. The routing warband

loses and their opponents win.
