The
Mousillon Bugle - 19/8/03
Issue 5: It's Been a While!
Hey kids, it's been a while, hasn't it? I hope
you're still with us, and not walking around as a re-animated
corpse in the service of some guy with a nasty overbite and a
penchant for blood, 'cause that would suck. Much like a vampire.
*boom tish* Speaking of vampires, I'd like to draw attention to
the fact that Buffy's finally over. I'd like to raise a chalice
of blood to that gem of television, the most amazing show that
served us well for 7 years. Of course, now that it's over, we'll
have to find some other way to occupy our time... "Oh, what's
this? An alternate setting for Mordheim? Sounds fascinating! Let's
give it a whirl!". To compensate for the lack of televised
bloodsuckers, we are nearing completion on a Necrarch warband
for you to sink your teeth into (my god, the puns just keep coming!)
But bah, surely you don't want to hear about
what we're nearing completion on. You want your grubby
hands on the new stuff available. Well, on your mouse at least,
to get the good stuff! Patience, young padawan!
First, some news. You may dimly recall last update
a competition was announced. Well, the gates are closed, results
are in, and we have a winner. Tom Straz is the newest member of
the Mousillon team, with his warband, "The Lost", a
gang made up of the survivors of this plague infested city. You
may recognise Tom as one of the designers from Lustria, as he's
simply trading one tropical virus for another less tropic one!
And now, on to the latest:
Hired Swords
The Dark Maiden
There's Yin and Yang. Sun and moon. Expresso and low fat double
mocha light. Everywhere you look, the great forces in the universe
have a balancing power. Last update we gave you the White Lady,
with her arse whoopin'ly good spells. There was much rejoicing.
However, she was always incomplete - just one side to the story.
So, to balance things up a bit for the not-so-good-guys, her not-so-nice
sister's in town, the Dark Maiden. This mamma puts the 'nasty'
into, erm, 'Dark (nasty) Maiden', and adds some much needed aesthetic
relief to some warbands (hey, I'm not implyng your Pestilence
Skaven are ugly or anything!). Check out the magic momma at:

Priest of Morr
Did anyone else notice that there's a lot of dead in Mousillon?
One cult certainly did. There are some that aren't to thrilled
by our vitality-challenged friends, and make it their mission
in life to kill them. Again. That's right, coming to you live
from Mousillon, with Morr power, Morr fury, Morr blasphemic bastardisations
of their patrons name, the Priests of Morr are in town, and they
didn't come for the scenery! Behold their zany rituals at

New Rules
So, you keep getting sold to the pits, huh? "It's not fair"
I hear you cry, "there's no arenas in Mousillon!" Damn
straight! Well watcha gonna do about it, punk?! I'll tell you
what! You're going to leave your Mordheim Serious Injury Table
behind, and use the dazzling new Mousillon Heroes Serious Injury
Table! *Insert fanfare* Your post battle sequences will never
be the same! (Until you play your second game with these rules).
It's plagueriffic!

So, got something to say? Well come right out and say
it, buddy!

Now wasn't that exciting!
But don't let it all out just yet, 'cause there's a lot more in
the works! We have two, count 'em, two (one, two, work those fingers!)
warbands nearing completion, two new hired swords, some maps,
and a few scenarios for good measure. And you thought Mousillon
was dead! (Pun intended)
Goodluck, and remember, don't accept candy or neck
wounds from strange tanless men!
Cheerio
Phil
Mousillon Webmaster, though not dead yet!
