It always rains in Nuln

A fun and challenging game, "Chaos in the Old World" lets you become one of the four (or five if you count the expansion) Chaos Gods, whose ultimate goal is the destruction of Warhammer world. However, as Chaos itself, it can be fickle and capricious, and to be honest, completely unfair. Now YOU can be a God too! I've played "Chaos in the Old World" back in 2009 with my former RPG group. It was a nice change from our weekly gaming sessions and it, along with "A game of Thrones" has shown me that board games can be just as fun to play as any PnP. That said I was rather surprised that during my first game ever I've managed to beat all three of my buds while playing Khorne. They've told me back then that it was perfecty normal and that not all Gods are equal. I was able toconfirm that claim, when I've bought the game myself, just a month ago. Since then I've played it twice and each time had a lot of fun doing so. That said, "Ch...

It has been a long and, I won't lie, kinda hard road for me these past weeks. I think I've thrown myself in at the deep end  with this End Times stuff. There were tons of rules and special characters, whom I needed to describe in sufficient way. While fun and challenging, it was also very time consuming and for one who never did this stuff before, simply draining. You know how it is: you start a blog, have a thousand different ideas for articles , but had decided (and announced) that you'll do a multi-part review and during the third post about topic X you start to wonder "how much longer do I have to write this?". Of course now that I actually managed to do that, the next End Times book review will go much smoother . At least I hope so. Fortunately it will be some time, before I'll decide to take a shot at "End Times vol. 2 Glottkin". But enough with the whining. Let's get down to buisness. Concluding my impromtu review of the ...

Also: writing is HARD. As you may have noticed, I've changed the entry from my greeting card from "updated every tuseday, thursday and sunday" to: "updated twice a week". Everyday mundane stuff is taking its toll on my editorial work, and so I have to stay flexible. But fear not, the blog WILL be updated twice a week. Now back to our scheduled program. With the release of "End Times vol. 1 Nagash", Warhammer players from all around the world have been introduced to Mortarchs, lieutenants of Great Necromancer . So far only five of nine got their stats and in some cases, new models. More could be covered later, or not, we shall see. However the ones that have been released are certainly interesting and, quite frankly, scary as hell. Which kinda fits their theme to be honest In this article I'll cover every single one of them. As usual this analysis will consist of the short character summary , and my thoughts on its strengths and weakness...

The time has come. For my third End Times post, I'll present to you the choicest rules and the character of Nagash himself! Bear in mind that I won't be covering both End Times in 100% detail but will concentrate on the most interesting rules and special characters. I don't want to write an essay here, just an enjoyable hobby article. Oh and no fluff this time. This entry is crunch only. Mind you, the word "enjoyable" has been removed from the vocabulary of most Old Worlder's Also I really want to move towards new things, mainly reviews and my personal thoughts about RPG's. That means no Glottkin rules/crunch review for some time . However the next two posts will be about the rest of special characters from the End Times book "Nagash". New rules in "End Times vol. 1 Nagash" Introduced in the first End Times book "Nagash" we have rules for underground fighting called the "Darkest Depths" , which in...

This post was supposed to be about the End Times crunch and rules, but I've figured that since the Glottkin will be released very soonish, I just might do a bit of comparing stuff. You know, because comparisons are always fun, right? That and the fact that I'll do the crunch post when the newest addition to the End Times will be released. That means very, very soon. Or else... As for this post... the title says it all! The End Times have been running for quite some time now, and with Glottkin book just around the corner I was wondering what my fellow geeks think about the whole endeavor, when compared to the infamous Storm of Chaos , the previous major campaign, set in the universe of Warhammer Fantasy Battles. Oh, and in case if you're wondering, no, I did not forgot about the Nemesis Crown incident. Altough I wish I had, just as most of the us, WFB players. WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! Now I'll be the first to say that I... actually liked the SoC. Yeah, you...
