Deeper into The Undercity
deeper into
By William Oz Schoonover
The new Iron Kingdoms adventure board game, The Undercity, released last month. To celebrate that release, were giving
you an all-new, official chapter to play through. It can be played using the tokens provided or you can use the farrow figures
available in the Iron Kingdoms Unleashed Adventure Kit. Look for more exciting Undercity content in the next issue of No Quarter.
CHAPTER 4.5: from the wild
Goal
On your way back to the city watch headquarters, you stumble
into the middle of a skirmish between one of the Undercitys
numerous gangs and a farrow raiding party. Going the long
way around this fight would take too long, and you have time-
sensitive information to report to Helstom.
Fighting your way through this conflict is your only option,
and the situation is further complicated by the locked door
blocking your path out of this region.
Gameplay
Villains in this mission are either part of the gang or the
farrow raiders. The gang and farrow raiders are enemies to
each other. If a villain has to choose between targets, and one
is a hero, the villain chooses the hero. If a villain has to choose
between multiple targets that are all villains, determine which
villain is targeted using the color and number priority rules.
When a non-boss villain attacks another non-boss villain, the
attack automatically hits and causes normal damage. Do not
make a Tough or Hardy roll for this damage.
Spawning
When you spawn a villain in this mission, the side it comes
from depends on the door it spawns at. If the door rolled is a
1-3 spawn a gang member. If the roll is a 4-6, spawn a farrow.
For example, if the roll to determine which type of villain
spawns is a 1, either a brigand or a sword thug will spawn. If
the door rolled is a 5, the brigand spawns because that door
belongs to the farrow.
Bosses
The lieutenant, heavy warjack, warlord, and bone grinder are
bosses. They are activated normally by villain cards. When
determining the priority of these villains for activations and
66 deeper into the undercity
targeting, the lieutenant and warlord are priority 1. The heavy
warjack and bone grinder are priority 2.
The lieutenant has the following ability: Jack Marshal If a
friendly construct is within 2 spaces of this character, it makes
an additional attack each time it attacks. If the lieutenant
follows the pursue tactic, he targets the heavy jack if possible.
If a boss character is not in play at the beginning of a round,
spawn it at a random passage matching its team.
Interactions
Control
A hero on the control space can activate it with a successful
INT10 or STR 12 challenge. A successful challenge flips the
marker from the closed side to the opened side.
Gate
The gate must be opened with the control spaces. The gate
cannot be opened with an action or damaged in any other
way. When both of the control spaces have an opened marker,
flip the gate tile to its open side.
A hero who begins a turn in the gate space can use his
movement to leave the board. A hero who leaves the board in
this way resolves free strikes normally.
Pit
Characters cannot move into a pit space. If a character is
placed in the pit space, that character is incapacitated.
The pit space is counted normally when determining range.
Victory or Defeat
The chapter ends and the party loses if every hero is either
incapacitated or passed out.
The party wins if a hero leaves the map through the exit space.
Add 3XP to the treasury for each battle-ready hero.
