Hordin's Last Call

Hordin’s Last Call

Hordin used to be an adventurer until he took an axe to the knee. Nowadays he spends his time as the
proprietor of the Adventurer’s Rest tavern. Of course, this is no easy task, as his daily duties usually
include stopping brawls, tossing out less than talented bards and cleaning up the mess of adventurers who
are looking to spend a little too much of their loot on his famous range of ales.

These are some of the more simple duties for the tavern owner, as he also has to deal with the occasional
assassination attempt from those who hold grudges from his adventuring days or the odd greenskin siege.

So, every now and then, when the bell rings for last calls, Hordin, along with his loyal mastiff Gnasher,
will pull on his beaten old boots for yet another adventurer.

Special Rule—Starting Positions

When initially placing any model in any of the following adventures, the Hero and the
Overlord players may select which direction the models are facing.

Special Rule—Gnasher

As his Feat, Hordin may either choose to permanently remove all adjacent Piles of Bones,
or place a Dwarf Mastiff to represent Gnasher in any adjacent square. Gnasher is activated
as a fifth member of the party, but does not count as a hero if he is crippled. He takes
damage like a standard Dwarf Mastiff would.

he can use an action to retrieve it.

Goreshank still needs to be defeated for the
heroes to succeed. Gnasher is unable to
rescue Blackmane.

Special Rule – Mine Cart Levers

At the start of each Overlord turn until Goreshank

has been placed on the board, the Overlord can
select a zone to drop a cart from the pulleys
above. Select a zone and roll a D6 to see which
zone square the cart drops on. If a model is
standing on the zone square, they take one wound
automatically. When Goreshank is placed on the
board and is still in his starting tile and the start
of the Overlord turn, he may drop a cart as
normal, but if he has moved away from this tile, he
is too far from the levers. The Overlord can spend
an Overlord card in their turn to get an extra pull
of the levers.

Aftermath
Dorig struggled out of the ropes and kicked the body of Goreshank. “Vile oaf! That’ll teach you for trying to kidnap Dorig
Blackmane.”

Hordin coughed to get Droig’s attention

“Ah, Hordin, of course. Thank you for coming to my aid. How can I either repay you?”

“Well, you can start with settling your tab.” Said the barkeep, as he drew his ledger.
