Campaign rules possibilities

I've played in a number of campaigns and have read online reviews of various warbands, and I was wondering about what folks thought about implementing some house rules.

First, for allowed warbands, perhaps we could implement "only official warbands" from http://www.mordheimer.com/warbands/official.htm ? While a number of the unofficial and experimental warbands are balanced, others appear to be in need of some balancing.

Maybe instead of disallowing certain warbands, we could institute some sort of balancing rule, such as something that allowed a player (one facing a non-official warband) to declare the fight a draw? I don't really want to tell folks "you can't do that", but similarly I don't want to face unbalanced warbands across the battlefield.

A second possible house rule would be increasing the use of armor, by cutting all armor costs in half.

Thoughts?

Well, that site divides warbands into three types:

Official: http://www.mordheimer.com/warbands/official.htm
Unofficial: http://www.mordheimer.com/warbands/unofficial.htm
and
Experimental: http://www.mordheimer.com/warbands/experimental.htm

I've had issues with some of the non-official warbands, and my initial proposal is "official warbands only".

My 'armor is half listed cost' is from an article on DakkaDakka - http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/212243.page - about 2/3 of the way down. And also from personal experience that armor is *way* too expensive to be worth it.

I got the Ok to play with the Night Goblin list, if you have issues with this just simply don't play me....Trust me I won't be offended.

you don't want him to play you cause you will lose sissy e-man

Thought I could weigh in here. I've been using the Lizardman rules for a while now. From what I understand they were done up for a Mordheim campaign supplement book. I don't know whether they're official or not. That being said they've been working out fine for our Westminster League. Besides, it's not like the "official" lists are perfectly balanced works of art anyway. Like the possessed or the undead rule that lets the rez your dead character as a zombie. Just a thought.

we let people use offical and the unoffical lists the fine

Anyone run against the elves yet? Sweet Lord, they're like the Mordheim Delta Force, which is awsome.

So far the only list I've seen that is unbalanced is the shadow warriors. I've been play testing all the list with help from some blessings of sigmar and that is the only one that I have seen yet.

The Shadow Warriors. Yeah that's them, good shooting with nasty spells, ugh. They seem to have a low model count though, it's a strong list but it just feels so right.
