Roll a die for each fighter that was taken out of action during the battle. On a roll of 1, the fighter is killed (or badly crippled) and must be retired from the warband roster. On a 2-6, the fighter suffers no lasting effects and may continue as normal.

If you roll the Dead result for your leader, you will need to choose a new leader for your warband. If you have any other fighters with the hero keywork, excluding hired swords, you must choose one of these to become your new leader. If you do not have any such fighters, in step 2 of the aftermath sequence (Earn Renown), one of your fighters automatically earn 1 renown and gains the hero keyword (see ‘The Lad’s Got Talent’ below) and the leader keyword.
Make a renown roll for each fighter in your warband that took part in the battle by rolling a dice. If the fighter was not taken out of action in the battle, you can add 1 to the roll. In addition, you can pick 1 fighter in your warband to be marked for greatness (even if they were taken out of action). Make 2 renown rolls for that fighter instead of 1.
On a 6+, the fighter being rolled for earns a level of renown. Check one of the checkboxes on that fighter’s renown track. For every odd checkbox (thin border), the fighter gain a characteristic increase of their choice (see below). For every even checkbox (thick border), the fighter gains a new talent (see chapter X, Talents). A fighter can never have more than 10 renown.

Whenever a fighter without the hero keyword earns their first level of renown, they immediately gain the hero keyword and must select a characteristic to increase (see below). This is a good opportunity to give that fighter a proper name. From now on, that fighter rolls on the injury table when taken out of action, may pick equipment exclusive to heroes and be sent on quests.

When a fighter gain a characteristic increase you may pick 1 characteristic from the list below. A fighter’s characteristics cannot be increased beyond their racial limit (see below).
