/TG/heim:Amar-Sin's Slavers (Chaos Dwarfs)
Intro[edit]
In the charred and empty wastes of Tzorn Uzkul lies the city of Zharr-Nagrrund. In it the hellish automatons of its nightmarish industry never fall silent and churn out weapons, armor and other products of war. All oiled by the blood of uncountable slaves toiling away and the sacrifices to the dreaded Bull God Hashut. He is patron of the chaos dwarfs and their twisted kind of craftsdwarfship, for him slaves are are thrown into vats of molten metal and the sorcerer priests recite their droning prayers. When the news of the catastrophy that hit Mordheim and more so the knowledge of the untold quantities of warpstone to find there reached the dark city virtually lighted up the planes below them as caravanns of chaos dwarfs where dispatched to gather information about this place far beyond theire borders. Months passed and finally caravanns were sent out to bring in the this rich bounty, Under them the men of Amar-Sin, member of the sorceror caste. He proccured a fitting vessel, a miyture of cage and hauling cart powered by a demon, with promisses to the hellsmiths of percentages of the earnings should he return.
His band may be small but he has to gain much. For him, riches and and a position of power. For Hashut, slaves and sacrifices.

Rules for the chaos engine[edit]
Now Holds 0 Prisoners.
Engine t8 w4 Wheel t6 w1 Daemon m6 t6 w3 SPECIAL RULESS Wagon: The Engine of Chaos follows all rules for Wagons (see Empire in Flames Supplement, p. 30–33) unless specified otherwise here. Daemon:The Engine of Chaos is powered by the binding of a daemon. All references to draft animals pulling the Wagon should be treated as referring to its daemon. Daemon movement is unaffected by cargo. Passengers:: A Chaos Dwarf must function as the driver. No other models but captives may passage the Engine of Chaos. No more than six captives may be imprisoned in the Engine at a time – large creatures (Ogres, Minotaurs, etc.) count as two models. Pedal to the Metal: The driver may apply the effects of the lash. If an Engine of Chaos goes out of control for then refer to the Out of Control table. In the event of rolling the result ‘Loss of Control’, replace a result of 5 (The wagon yoke pole snaps…) with; The Daemon has released itself from the sorcery which bound it to the Engine of Chaos. The Engine moves 6" straight ahead and then comes to a halt. The vehicle may no longer move for the remainder of this battle. Prisoners: Models always become captives when Prisoners: fighting a battle against a Chaos Dwarf warband that has an Engine of Chaos by rolling the Captured result on the Serious Injuries table or by being taken out of action by a Man-catcher. Note that in both cases their equipment is lost to the Chaos Dwarf warband. Some results on the Mordheim Exploration chart let Chaos Dwarfs acquire captives: Straggler (one) and Prisoners (D3). From the Empire in Flames Exploration chart: Raving Lunatic (one), Lost Children (two), Mordheim Refugees (D3), The Hanging Tree (one), Small Farm and Large Farm (two). Models held as captives can be set free by destroying the Engine of Chaos or by using the prison keys. If a model puts one of the Chaos Dwarf warband's Gaolers out of action they take the keys. A model that takes the keys may free the captives by moving into base contact with the engine. If the Chaos Dwarfs rout before this happens or if the model with the keys is taken out of action (losing the keys to a new keeper), the captives remain captured. Freed captives must always move towards the closest table edge. Captives not from participating warbands use the basic profile for human warriors (see Mercenary warband). Rescued captives return to their former warbands. Haaashut's Reward: Hashut's Reward:shut's Reward: shut's Reward: The Chaos Dwarfs may choose to send captives back to the Dark Lands after a battle. If they do this, any number of captives must be sacrificed to Hashut. The Engine of Chaos plus one Hero must miss the next battle. Unless there is another engine, no models may be captured until they return. Captives must be removed from their warbands rosters permanently. After the Hero rejoins the warband consult the following table. Captives Hashut’s Reward 1----3 +1 Experience points for the leader. 4----5 +D3 Experience points which can be distributed among the Heroes. 6 +2D3 Experience points which can be distributed among the Heroes plus D6x5 gold crowns.
