Forces of Fantasy

This episode we take a look at the fun "new" game Chaos Marauders, which has nothing to do with Chaos Marauders and everything to do with Orcs. There are also lots of beautiful miniatures to discuss - and the rules to go with them. A fitting last look at 2nd edition, because next time we're moving into 3rd!

The Warhammer Summer Reveal promises some new minis and rules for you Old World fans (as well as some new potential minis for use in your older editions of Warhammer). Speaking of older editions, White Dwarf 93 reveals what the (then) new game Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader is all about. So for just this once, we'll spend a bit of time reflecting on 40k as well as Fantasy.

What do Wyverns, Dragons, Minotaurs and Giant Scorpions have in common? They're all featured in White Dwarf 92, alongside such goodies as the Goblin Battle Chariots (yes, plural), Scarloc's Scouts, Wizards, ninja's and Chaos (both the Dwarfs and the Thugs variety). An audio-only look at a miniatures heavy White Dwarf. There'll be an article next time, I promise!

In this episode, we discuss all the Warhammer goodness in White Dwarf 91 - and it is PACKED with new miniatures (well, they were new at some point), WFRP (although I won't go into that) and an awesome looking 4-player scenario in Dog Peak Pass, Black Fire Pass' lesser known counterpart. And yes, there is a mechanic in this scenario for tossing Dwarf snowballs. And no, these are not snowballs thrown by Dwarfs.

What's the difference between a Warrior Orc and an Orc Champion? The champions have awesome monikers, of course. And better stats, but that's not as important. Either way, White Dwarf 89 is packed with new miniatures and a chance to win them. But you have to be quick, because the deadline is August... 1987. We're still hot on the tails of the Ravening Hordes release, so there's plenty of that too in the two issues covered in this episode.

That was a long wait, but I've finally crawled my way through my obligations towards the microphone again to continue our journey through 2nd edition Warhammer Fantasy with this coverage of White Dwarf 88, featuring the awesome looking Snotling Pump Wagon and a specialized Goblin army, the Broken Nose Tribe. 

The good thing about Ravening Hordes is that it gives you access to allies (which are an army within your army) and mercenaries. The good thing about mercenaries is that they can supplement your army. The BAD thing about mercenaries is that they can at some point choose to supplement your opponent's army! Take a trip back in time, away from all the Cathay news and releases, to the final section of the Ravening Hordes (1987, there's so many it needs a designation).

After a lengthy period of no podcasts, the Forces of Fantasy Podcast is back with another discussion of Ravening Hordes armies. In this episode: Chaos (men, dwarfs and beasts), Nippon and Norse. One of these has been split in three and the other two are just mentioned in the lore presently, if that. Ah, those were the days, when you could make Vikings battle exploding samurai...

What do Undead, Dark Elves and Skaven have in common? They're the next three army lists we're looking at in the Ravening Hordes book for 2nd edition. Each army brings its own unique fighting style to the table, but you're also limited by some serious minimum model counts. And by missing rules, but hey, that's Oldhammer (or Warhammer in general) for you.
