Details for upcoming Warhammer Armies: Hobgoblins!

Though the list won't go into development until I'm finished with the Halflings, I thought I would share the details so you know what to expect to see in the list. As stated earlier, the list will be largely based on cavalry, with plenty of mounted archers and light cavalry specialising in different areas, as well as some infantry support.

Hobgoblin Archers (bows)
Wolfriders (bow/spear, LA, shield)

Hobhounds (warbeasts with handlers)

Special:
Rage Riders (frenzy, 2HW/GW, riding hobhounds)
Khan's Guard (lance, HA, shield, barded wolf)
Mangudai (elite mounted archers)
Tarkans (flaming attacks, anti-building/forest unit, riding wolves)

All books now available on issuu.com!

With the release of the Kingdoms of Ind, I happened to notice that issuu.com have implemented a very useful update function which is perfect for when I want to post a revision of a document, which was the only thing really missing earlier.

So for you people who have gotten mad at Scribd for not allowing you to download without registering, or don't like having to wait for the download on 4shared, all books will from now on be posted first and foremost on issuu.com, where you can both read and download them without any waiting times or registration. The best of all worlds, in short!

Surprise Release! The Kingdoms of Ind beta out now!

Though this is probably more of a case of "better late than never" than it is a real surprise, I didn't expect to be done with it just yet. But I just sat down yesterday and figured I'd finish the damn thing, and I did!
So for you people who have been waiting to try out the Kingdoms of Ind, have at it! Rules are finished, but the main background will take quite some time to write up, so I wouldn't expect that to be done any time soon.

Work on the Halfling list will proceed as planned, and might be finished sometime this fall.

More Armies planned for the future!

Of course some might say that I am biting off more than I can chew (which might be completely accurate), as I am still working on two books already, but that doesn't mean I am willing to throw in the towel once that is done. After I finish up on the Halflings and the Kingdoms of Ind, I still plan to do at least 2 more army books: Hobgoblins and Chaos Dwarfs.

The former will as one might expect be based upon the Mongolian Empire and be heavily based on cavalry combat, whereas the latter will pretty much be an update on the old 5th ed Chaos Dwarf list as well as including all the new units from the upcoming Tamurkhan: Throne of Chaos.
The Chaos Dwarf book is pending though as there are already so many other great Chaos Dwarf lists out there, so my version would simply be trying to get everything up to speed with the new "official" rules from Forge World, as well as having a complete focus on the Chaos Dwarfs themselves rather than the mixed Chaos force of Forge Worlds book. Don't expect any of these books before the end of the year though.

As for the Halflings, I have a large Warhammer tournament coming up this October, so most of my time until then will be spent painting. After that though, there should be ample time to finish up the list.

Halflings back on the boat!

Holy Crap, I am posting again! So yes, I am still working on my books, even though it's sloooow. Kingdoms of Ind will once again have to sit back a while while I suffer through another writer's block, but on the plus side, I aim to work on the hairy little critters known as Halflings again! A large thank you to Josh R4444s who has been so kind to supply me with a bunch of nicely written fluff and rules to work with, which should really speed up the process.

The Kingdoms of Ind will be released at a later date, still stuck on the Special characters and magic items, which are rather integral to how the list plays (as well as keeping a consistent layout). Hopefully I will have all the fluff sorted out until then.

The Halflings on the other hand, will likely be done a lot faster now fortunately, I'll keep you all updated with how it goes.

Also, new cover which should hopefully be more fitting than the old grey gloomy one:

Kingdoms of Ind news update

All right, so I'm back from London now, and as promised, I have gotten quite a bit of work done on the list while over there.

The Bestiary and army list are nearly finished, including special characters, and the magic items are well under way, and hopefully I can post the full, playable list next week. Note that this will only include the actual rules needed to play, and not the background for the Kingdoms of Ind themselves, which will be added at a later date. Still, I have a feeling most of you are probably looking forward more to the actual rules than reading walls of text ;)

So to summarize; be on the lookout for the Kingdoms of Ind (beta version) sometime during next week!

Cathay update released, Kingdoms of Ind news, and Warhammer World!

Apologies for my long absence, but other things has simply been prioritized for a while. I'm back with a little more work now, namely another Cathay update that fixes a couple of remaining 7th ed remnants and clarifications.

As for the Kingdoms of Ind, I'm afraid little progress has been made these last months, but there will be at least 2 units previously unmentioned, namely a Vimanas (basically a flying tank fortress) and a Beastmaster hero able to control jungle creatures like tigers and panthers. No release date so far though.

Lastly, I will be taking a trip to Warhammer World in Nottingham in less than a week, where I should have some time to do some writing as well as possibly finding some good source material and inspiration.
