Bounty Descriptions

Several different bounties can be placed on our warriors during the campaign (see the full rules for Bounties). Each bounty is fully detailed below in the following manner:

  • Name + descriptive text recounting the bounty

  • Base Prize: the starting sum of the bounty.

  • Escalation Rate: the value by which the bounty increases over time if not collected.

  • Special Rules: extra rules pertaining to the bounty, if any.

Base Prize: The gold crowns you owe Pirelli.

Escalation Rate: 5 GC/chapter

Special rules: 

What are YOU doing here?: For as long as the bounty persists, your warband cannot possess a Miracle of Miragliano healing effect.

Scorpion Lover

Your warband’s support of a ruler’s fiercest rival has resulted in a bounty placed on a member of your warband. A petty revenge, but one you must deal with. This bounty is issued by either Sigmar’s Haven or Brigandsburg.

Hugo’s Demise: If the side quest ends with Hugo dead, bounties remain for all warriors except for those of the winning warband. As the faction paying the bounty no longer needs to stifle investigations, escalation rates drop to zero, but the bounties remain to spite those who helped Verteidiger and his allies.
