Warhammer Shadow Of The Horned Rat Cheats (PC)

First, select one of you wizards. Now, hold down [CTRL] and click on the Spell button. You
should get a windows message, (on my computer, I don't get to read it; my cursor just
turns into the windows cursor) so hit Enter to confirm it. The winds of magic should now
change every few seconds.
  Warning: The winds of magic are sped up for the enemy wizards too, so watch out!

Instructions are for Windows 95 only although this will probably work with Windows 3.1 as
well.

  Start the game as normal Load any saved file Now press ALT ESC this will change
Warhammer to a window Start WORDPAD from the START PROGRAM ACCESSORIES menu Open file
:SHADOW OF THE HORNED RATSAVEDARMY.MRC

  Now the fun begins. Modify any unit listed or add new/killed ones. Add magic items or
spells.

  You may modify the number of troops or Active troops given after S_SIDE as
setstats:s_side=,,,

  You may change any of the values after S_MOVE as they represent the stats from the
book. Increase Move (Non mounted only), Weapon Skill, Balistic Skill, Strength,
Toughness, Wounds, Initiative, Attacks, or Leadership. setstats:s_move=M,W,B,S,T,W,I,A,L
If you know the names for magic items you may add them to any units after the banner
line. banner:BannerMrcCmdr,0 addmagicitem:ItemGrudgeBringer If you know the names for
spells you may add them to any wizards after the banner line. banner:BannerAmber,0
addspell:GeneralDispel

  To help you with these review the .MRC and .BTS file in directory SHADOW OF THE HORNED
RATFILESCRIPT

  You may copy complete units from the MRC files. Do not forget to update the number of
units set:count=

  Many other things can be changed such as armor, weapon, balistic weapon etc. However
these use codes and not names so you will need to experiment.

  Once you have finished save the file and return to the game. Use the maximise button to
get the full screen.

  You will now find all these values reflected in the troop roster and everywhere else.

   you can only modify ARMY.MRC after loading a game as it is stored in memory
after this.

  Also the amount of gold may be modified using a hex editor from any saved file in
:SHADOW~1SAVEDSAVEGAME. It is stored at location F0 in the file in reverse hex
form ie F7 01 = 500.

  I recommend copying ARMY.MRC and SAVEGAME. before starting and the usual disclaimers
are in effect, you do this at your own risk.

Towards the end of the game you should have a lot of archers and the cannons (Imperial,
normal, mortars, and the Hell thingamajigger). My advice is to bring all of them into a
battle with a few bodygaurds (Grudgbringer calvary, dwarfes etc.) and set them up in a
line (bodygaurd, Cannon, archers, imperial cannon,bodygaurd, archers, cannon, bodyguard,
body gaurd). as soon as the enemies get near, open fire and watch them squeel.

Here's an almost complete listing of the magic items that can be found in Warhammer:
Shadow of the Horned Rat.

Notes:



It is not possible to my knowledge to obtain all the items.

You can't trade magic items between units, so make sure the right unit

gets the right item.

Remember, each unit can only hold a max of 5 items. Potions can be

drunk to make space for more powerful artifacts.

The ID Number is where it is in the book of magic in case you want to

check it out for yourself.



These are in the approximate order that you may find them.

******************************

10- SwordOfMight (Protect Schnappelburg)

This item is in the very first mission. Found to the right of the clump

trees in the centre of the map. Should probably give to infantry, as cav

have a sword. But remember bonuses are cumulative. This sword gives the user

bonus strength.

11- DragonBlade (Sven Carlsson)

On the 2nd or 3rd mission (Capture Otto Hiln) there is a snowman

behind the house/tower in the top right corner. Once you have killed

everyone, bring Your Calvary over to it and touch it. This will give

you the Dragon Blade, the most powerful sword in the game. Now your

calvary can use the Grudgebringer to shoot a fire ball and the Dragon

Blade to do twice the damage.

6- ShieldOfPtolos (Rescue Ilmarin)

Found behind the clump of trees to the west. This shield increases the

wielder's chance of deflecting missile attacks including war engines. I

suggest letting Allor have this one.

8- SwordOfHeroes (Slave Train : a Carlson sub quest)

The item is behind the building near the graveyard. It is only effective

against opponents with a toughness of 5 or more, like trolls. I'm unsure as

to the actual bonuses. Probably give to cavalry.

7- PotionOfStrength

There are 6 potions in five different missions.



Item is in the NE corner of the map. (Shattered Pass)

Item is near the 2nd stream of lava on the east wall. (Valley of the Trolls)

Item is near the two rocks. (The Vermin Burrows)

Item is near rock to NE of the map. (Suprise Attack)

Item is near some trees or a building just to the NE very close to your

setup area. Another potion is somewhere on the map too.(Final Battle), this

potion is the last item you can find.



The 6 potions of strength are only effective for one single battle but are

useful due to elevating the character's strength by about 4 thus greatly

increasing his chance to wound an enemy and penetrate the armour.

3- BannerOfWrath (Valley of the Trolls)

The mission is the suicidal troll mission to Loren. The banner is at the 3

lava pools to the west. There is also a potion in this mission but the

banner is WAY more important. This mission is a waste of money unless the

item/s can be obtained. The banner shoots out powerful lighning bolts. I

suggest using the grudcav and ceridan because Ceridan never dies.

4- BannerOfArcaneProtection (The Vermin Burrows)

This mission is the skaven suicidal mission to Loren. The banner is between

a rock and cave down west. I myself however have not confirmed this. There

is also a potion in this mission. The mission is a waste of money unless the

items can be obtained. The banner dispells hostile magic 50% chance.

0- BannerOfArcaneWarding (Suprise Attack)

This mission is the orc suicidal mission to Loren. The banner is in the West

between the tents. There is also a potion in this mission. The mission is a

waste of money unless the items can be obtained. This banner reflects

hostile spells in a random direction.

5- TalismanOfObsidian (Squatter's Rights)

This is the 'save sheep in farm from goblins' mission. This item is probably

the best in the game, it cancels all magic cast at or near the holder. The

only way to get to this mission is to get to Zhufbar through the mountain

pass, not underground. The item is in the far east behind the house. Give to

cavalry, definately not to a mage.

1- BannerOfMight (Slave Assault)

This is also a excellent item as it adds to the unit's combat ability but

I'm not exactly sure what it increases (most likely it makes the enemy unit

break faster). It is one of the missions given to you in Zhufbar. The item

is behind a pile of rocks near the north wall.

12- ArmourOfMeteoricIron (Bandit's Hideout)

This item is in the Bandit hideout camp mission after the Decoy mission. You

do these missions at Nuln. But if you do any of the bandit missions rather

then going to Loren right after talking to the Emporer, you don't get the

Reiksgard Knight cavalry unit (your choice). The item is in the far west

behind the tents. It grants the character extra protection from wounds (most

likely a better armour rating). Give to any character you wish to protect

the most, probabaly a wizard.

2- Dreadbanner (Extermination)

It is in the Exterminate skaven mission given in Karak Norn. An excellent

item that makes the unit cause fear (now you can act the horifying monster

part). But this mission may well take its toll on ya. Make sure you attack

the caves. The item is in the

eastern corner, near a cave.

9- ParryingBlade (Patrol Loren)

This is one of the missions you can perform whilst in Loren. It is a VERY

dangerous patrol because you will be ambushed twice. And then you must fight

the second Loren mission anyway...sheeze :)  The item is behind the 3rd rock

to the east. The rock just near the small valley. Makes the wielder more

likely to dodge enemy attacks.

These items are found on various characters.

13- ArmourOfTheBeard

14- GrudgeBringer

15- SwordOfElior

16- RockSplitter
