Annoucing: A Tale of Five Gamers!

Many of you will probably remember the Tale of Four Gamers as featured in White Dwarf during two seasons. I myself followed it with much interest back in the day. Since then, a lot of other people have attempted to do their own Tale of Four Gamers with various results. 

Well, today I can announce that the The Elector Counts Podcast and myself will be doing our own version of this, using only WAP armies, something that has never been done before. And more than that, it will be done through a nice spiffy newsletter every month, just like White Dwarf used to do it! 

So for those interested in following the journey over the next 12 months and seeing us build and paint armies for Albion, Araby, Cult of Ulric, Dogs of War and Norse from scratch, you can find the first newsletter below:

Podcast Interview: Albion

So recently I did another podcast interview with the Elector C(o)unts (they are Australian), this time talking about Albion! Turns out this will be a 3-parter, as there was a lot of stuff to cover! So if you enjoy Albion, or just want to listen to my Swedish accent and all three of use trying (and failing hilariously) to pronounce Celtic and Irish names , here you can find all parts:

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

 

 

Daemons of Chaos Special Characters v.1.0 out now!

A bit later than planned (spent a lot of time painting the last months!), but better late than never I guess. This is the first of a series of smaller instalments/expansions adding more special characters to the various official armies. This will include both old Warhammer Fantasy Characters as well as Age of Sigmar Characters that can be adapted for the Warhammer World without too much trouble.

 

The Daemons of Chaos Special Characters expansion contains the following:

• Skaarac the Bloodborn - Great Bloodbeast of Khorne
• Mazarall the Butcher - Daemon Prince of Khorne
• Rotigus - Rainmaker, Rainfather, the Generous One
• Azazel - Prince of Damnation
• Amon 'Chakai - Lord of Change, Greater Daemon of Tzeentch

I'm planning to have the rest of the Special Characters for the other armies out later this month. Note that there are only a few armies whose special characters are not already implemented in their army books already, so it won't be releases for all of them.
