Damned Companion: a new friend for an old game.

Damned Companion is the first app for building your warbands and managing campaigns with your friends. Build your warbands according to the official rules, and keep everything in one place. A digital roster for your warband, always ready, with everything you need to know about your characters, links to the official rules in English and Italian, and much more!

YOUR WARBANDS ALWAYS WITH YOU


With Damned Companion you'll never lose your warband sheets again, and you can bring as many as you want without needing a binder. Of course, the timeless charm of paper is unbeatable.


In fact, with just a couple of simple clicks you can download the updated PDF of your warband ready to print, in no less than 3 formats:


  • Classic: classic format that summarises the warband, rating, treasury and inventory


  • Warband Book: A format to print on A4 sheets and then fold to create a small booklet of your warband, complete with background


  • Zine: 8-page zine format, easy to fold. A pocket-sized booklet with info and photos of your characters


These are just some of the features you'll find in the Damned Companion app, and we're about to reveal a few more



OFFICIAL RULES ALWAYS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS


A pile of PDFs to hunt through in your phone's files, multiple websites to search and cross-check. With Damned Companion you'll have everything just a click away.


Once you've created your warband, you'll always have a link at hand for the official rules in both Italian and English.


The links to the official rules are available thanks to Broheim.net and the translated warband archive of Mordheim Italia, who have maintained an updated and detailed archive all these years.






ADVANCEMENTS? NO PROBLEM!


The feature for advancing your warband is directly managed according to general and warband-specific rules. Assign experience points and update your character when they level up. Racial caps, available skill trees, troop promotions: all the features are there to keep your warband up to date after every game.


ONE APP FOR EVERYONE

Damned Companion helps you create and manage your warbands, and more. Just like any self-respecting damned companion, it also supports you when you play with your friends, helping you manage campaigns and keep track of all results. Set the number of games to play, the special objectives to collect during scenarios. Invite your friends to join and have fun! Damned Companion takes care of the number-crunching.


Campaigns can be created with simple data entry, meaning you only specify the treasures and objectives obtained, without verification, but still editable afterwards in case of errors (ahem, yes.. errors). Or with full data entry, which allows you to log the game while also managing experience points, injuries, deaths and final treasury calculation, with cross-approval from all participants. In this case, the game approved by all participants will update the warband with advancements, without having to enter them manually from the roster.


THE CRONACHE ETERNE CAMPAIGN


Damned Companion was born from a single tool created within the Cronache Eterne app, from which it will no longer be possible to create a warband, but where you will still be able to register with warbands created in Damned Companion.




NFC TAGS FOR YOUR BASES


Every Mordheim player doesn't just crunch numbers to build their warbands. They imagine, create and tell the story of every character within it. Inspired by the innovations of the Great Names, we've added a feature to write and read NFC Tags — small battery-free circuits that you can attach under the base of your character.


Once written with the app from the character's profile page, it can be viewed by anyone who scans the Tag and they'll be able to see the character's entire history.


Also a great way to find the lost ones.. If you've never forgotten a miniature among the ruins of a gaming table, despair, because it's only a matter of time. Veterans of this experience, we gave the tag another function.


If a stray miniature is found among the ruins and it has a tag, you'll be able to scan it and send a notification to the owner to let them know it's been found.



WHEN WILL IT BE AVAILABLE?


The app is still being refined, and we are working on releasing it as a native app for both Android and iOS.


Stay tuned to find out when the official launch will be!
