Aftermath Sequence
At the end of each battle, all players must complete a series of steps referred to as the aftermath sequence. It is recommended for both players to do this immediately after the battle has finished.
Step 1: Roll for injuries
Roll on the appropriate Injury table for each fighter that was taken out of action during the battle, and apply the result.
Permanent Injuries
When Heroes are taken out of action, they risk suffering a permanent injury (symbolised as a ▼). Permanent injuries are all traits, with the following special rules:
- A
Herocan never have more than three permanent injuries. If they suffer a fourth one, treat that result as 11-12: Dead instead. - If a
Herosuffers a permanent injury they already have, treat that result as 41-56: Flesh Found instead.
Death of a leader
If your Leader dies or is removed from the warband for any other reason, you must select a Hero to gain the Leader keyword. If you do not have any fighters with the Hero keyword, you must disband the warband and create a new one.

Step 5: Manage warband
You may now add new fighters to your warband roster by spending gold coin, following the same restrictions as when you first built your warband.Your fighters can be bought new equipment from your faction entry, as well as from the Trading Post (see page 21), and their old equipment can be swapped around freely.
Unused equipment can be sold at half price, or stored in the Warband Stash on your warband roster.
Fighters can be dismissed from your warband whenever you wish, and you can strip them of equipment when doing so. If you dismiss your Leader, you must elect a new Leader by following the steps for Death of a leader
Step 6: Recalculate reputation
To recalculate Reputation, simply combine your warband’s favour with each point of renown from all fighters in the warband and update your warband roster.
