Usage

How do I create new Careers?

There is nothing more special about creating a Career than any other Item. See the Foundry Knowledge Base Article. Additionally, see Careers for more information on how Careers work.

Why can’t I see pins on the map? Like on the Reikland Scene, or the Ubersreik Scene

Journal Pins / Notes on a Scene are only visible whe on the Notes layer (the dovetail flag on the left side controls). For more details, see the Knowledge Base

I’m trying to change the Token size for an Actor, but it keeps reverting!

See the Actor Settings menu for how to disable certain automatic behaviors.

Why can’t Players see the rolled number and target number when I (the GM) roll Tests?

By default these are hidden. This can be toggled via Configure SettingsSystem SettingsHide Test Data

Character Creation

How can I include Gnomes or Ogres in character creation?

You need to tell the system what Table to use during character generation. This can be done via Configure SettingsSystem SettingsTable settings.

Why aren’t both Gnomes and Ogres showing up in Character Creation when I have both modules that add them? How can I get them both available?

Well, the simple answer is that no book/module has ever defined a table that has both Gnomes and Ogres on it, but you can always make your own or modify the existing one. Either duplicate or create a new Rollable Table (make sure it has the key of species, at the top of the table sheet), add the Species you want, and select the table to be used for Character Creation, as described above.

How can I create a new Species for Character Creation?

See Creating a new Species

Modules

How can I print the WFRP character sheets for my players?

This module is built specifially for converting WFRP sheets to PDF. Whether or not it is currently updated and usable, I cannot confirm.
