The second part of my WFRP 4th edition review will concentrate on the available classes and their choosing. Will the 4th turn out to be as diversed and interesting as my beloved 2nd? Let's find out. First of all I highly suggest to check out Viluir's fantastic WFRP 4th edition review. It's in Polish only, but if you know the language, then you're in for a treat. The review can be found on her blog, cheekily named Rzuć 90k6! (Roll90d6!). Now for the character creation. The standard races are all here with the small change for the elves - now there are those from the forests, the Asrai, and the ones from Ulthuan - the Asur, the High Elves. I really like that change, as anyone who knows even the bascics of the Warhammer lore, knows that these two factions are vastly different to each other. You can roll a dice to determine which race you're going to play, in lieu of chosing. If you do so, you'll get additional 20 XP. Neat! The non-humans are a bit more s...

Well, here it is - the 4th edition of WFRP has arrived and already people are divided about its quality. I'm going to take a look at this newest iteration of a classic RPG and give you my honest opinion on it. First of all - this will be a multi part review, with each part covering the different part of the rulebook. These will be written once a week, since there will be about 4 to 5 parts. I hate reading PDF's, as it makes my eyes really tired, so reading a whole rulebook on my PC's screen was a major no-no for me, sorry guys. When the starter set eventually arrives, I'll review it as well. In this first part of my review of WFRP 4th edition, I will concentrate on the overall look of the book, the graphics, artworks and lore, all of which can be found within its pages. I can already say - I like it a lot! What a fantastic bunch of colorful characters! First of all, the art is very consistent in 4th edition. It's a nice mix of a dirty, down-to-earth...

You all know that I'm a huge Warhammer buff. That said, there's one setting which is even closer to my heart - the Classic World of Darkness. When it comes to its many splats, I've always adored Hunter: The Reckoning the most. I will write an entire post about my all-encompassing love towards H:TR, but for now let's just say that I'm all about the common folk, facing off against the myriad terrors of the night. I've always rooted for the underdogs and the Imbued, as the hunters of this setting are known, perfectly encapsulate this term. That said, I will write a legthy post about this game, as well as the Classic World of Darkness in general, in the near future. I have so many great memories, associated with this logo I was very lucky to be able to interview Ed Hall, one of the original creators of Hunter: The Reckoning. He's an incredibly nice man who was patient enough to answer all of my fan-fuelled questions, and there were a lot of them! You ...

Quite a lot of things is happening right now in our fandom. The 4th edition ofWarhammer Fantasy Roleplay is right around the corner, Zweihander will recieve yet another expansion and Titanicus is making everyone sweaty! I will try and cover it all in no particular order, but first we must talk about some very sad news. After many years online, the fantastic Strike to Stun forums will be closing down this year. It's all because of the European Union's privacy policies, potentialy aimed towards the social media giants like Facebook. In reality, as is often the case, the main victims of such a law are relatively small internet communities, like StS. It's very sad to see it go. For many years it was home to people who loved WFRP, as well as those who created various editions of this venerable game. There are alternatives, like the Ratchater's Guild Discord server and the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay reddit community, but Strike to Stun is one of a kind. It will be archived...

What is this? A simple audiobook review while the world celebrates the release of the 4th edition of WFRP? Have I gone mad? Not really. You see, while I'm very happy about the newest iteration of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay to finally see the light of day, I won't review it. At least not yet. The reason is simple and there are actually two of them - first of all, it's not a finished product and second, I can't read PDF files too well on a PC screen. While I will probably have to do so anyway, for now it's making me incredibly uncomfortable to do so, so now 4th edition review from me for now, at least. So, without further ado, let's check out the second Gotrek & Felix audiobook with a very metal title: "Curse of the Everliving". The cover's pretty metal as well! This one has been written by the talented David Guymer and is  from the "newer" line of Gotrek and Felix, i.e. the reader can place it at any time he wants. This ...
