The Order of the Templars of Sigmar, universally known as the Witch Hunters,
is an organization dedicated to the eradication of heretics, be they warlocks,
witches, sorcerers, fortune-tellers, necromancers, worshippers of dark gods,
deviants, mutants, blasphemers, sinners, mutterers of profanities, servants of
Daemons, pornographers, or composers of corrupting music. Even when Death by
Fire is the proscribed punishment for heretics, most of those guilty cheat
and foul the Witch Hunters' noble intentions by dying during questioning before
making a full confession and retraction of their wicked ways.
Witch Hunters are charismatic rabble-rousers who can soon turn a crown to
their own ends. They are universally dreaded, for everyone has something or
someone to hide. Even the Sisters of Sigmar are sworn enemies, as only those
loathsome Daemon-worshipping she-heretics whose very existence are a vile
affront to the majesty of Sigmar could have survive the Hammer of Sigmar's
Wrath by making further packs with the dark gods. Now, they have turn their
cleansing crusade into Mordheim. All elements of Chaos must be destroyed, and
the Wyrdstone must be returned to the proper care of Temple of Sigmar... under
the watchful eye of the Grand Theologist himself!

Heroes
1 Witch Hunter Captain; 60 gold
crowns to hire
Driven by fanaticism, Witch Hunter Captains are obsessed with cleansing Mordheim
and bringing the justice of Sigmar to all. Carrying the edict of the Grand
Theogonist himself, they have the divine right to judge and execute warlocks,
witches, Chaos worshippers… in fact all who dare to oppose them.

0-3 Witch Hunters; 25 gold crowns
to hire
Witch Hunters are members of the grim Order of Witch Hunters, dedicated to
eradicating Chaos and all its minions. Usually they prowl the Old World
individually trying and executing the enemies of Sigmar, but the situation in
Mordheim requires them to band together.

0-1 Warrior-Priest; 40 gold
crowns to hire
Many powerful fighting men have come from the ranks of the faithful. The Priests
of Sigmar are no exception, and the military wing of the cult is feared and
respected throughout the Empire. The Grand Theogonist himself has granted the
Warrior-Priests an edict to cleanse Mordheim of Chaos filth. With fire burning
in their eyes, the Warrior-Priests stride into battle, chanting aloud the Deus
Sigmar, the praise of the patron god of the Empire.

Henchmen
(In groups of 1-5)
0-5 Flagellants; 40 gold crowns
to hire
Flagellants are fanatics and madmen obsessed with the end of the world. They are
often men who have lost their families to war or the ravages of nature, and have
also lost their minds. With insane persistence, they travel the length and
breadth of the Empire, preaching their view of the end of the world. With their
rousing speeches, Witch Hunters can muster these dangerous lunatics to fight in
the streets of Mordheim, where no sane man dares tread. Flagellants are
extremely dangerous opponents in close combat, for they have the strength of
madmen, and their bodies have become inured to pain because of self-mutilation.

Weapons/Armor: Flagellants may
be equipped with weapons and armor chosen from the Flagellant Equipment list.
Flagellants never use missile weapons, even if they gain an Advance roll which
would otherwise allow them to do so.
Special Rules:
Fanatical: Flagellants are convinced that the end
of the world is nigh, and nothing in this world holds any terror for them.
Flagellants automatically pass all Leadership-based tests they are required
to take. A Flagellant may never become a warband leader.
0+ Zealots; 20 gold crowns to
hire
When a man loses his family, home and all he cared for, religion is often the
last refuge left to him. Such men become wandering pilgrims, bitter and
dangerous fanatics who are prepared to avenge their loss at any cost. These men
are called Zealots. Zealots have forsaken their former lives and exist only to
destroy evil and the minions of Chaos. Whilst they might have been peasants and
craftsmen before, and thus may not be as dangerous in a fight as seasoned
mercenaries, their determination and fanaticism should not be underestimated.
Witch Hunters find ready allies in their ranks, and many a band of Zealots is
led by Witch Hunters.

heretics, mutants, deviants and witches.
