[OOC] need help from lore masters

Greetings the wisest of warhammer fans. I find myself in a bit of an endless search for information on the Warhammer Fantasy universe and wanted to ask for some assistance.

I'm looking to find a useful list of metals, leathers, wood, runes, etc based in the Warhammer Universe. Ive found a few references to Gromril and Ithilmar but overall the vast majority of supplies a blacksmith, runesmith or armorcrafter would use are a bit of a mystery to me. Does anyone have a good book or resource online that lists some of the common supplies a tradesman would use?

Thanks in advance!

Foghladha

Wow great resources thank you! I just didn't want to be like Foghladha wielded a Cobalt sword and have someone be like, hey dumb ass there is no cobalt in the Warhammer Universe. I'd be like well sheep i'm gonna go hide now. Trying to get edumacated before I make a fool out of myself :).

Wait, wait, wait... is this RP stuffs? That's actually why I didn't play with ya'll in GW2; I was running a massive server arc in Tera, JS

I have a bunch of WAR fantasy stuff in my head and a number of the books somewhere around here. Check out the images of the index (2 pages) here: https://rpggeek.com/images/rpgitem/4378 ... ld-armoury I have said book if you wanted a specific thing, or you can buy the PDF version of it (and tons more) here: I http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/628 ... _0_44499_0

No worries, I'll help where I can. I've been quasi RP'ing Warhammer since oh 1980-something and online RP'ing it for over a decade. Most of the lore knowledge in my head is Elf and Vampire, but I have a good handle on magic and the general history as well (though AoS kind of takes place in an alternate timeline kind of deal.) Then I have books to supplement my brains lack of storage space :P
