Whether you're looking to play your games of Warhammer as a thief, field a battalion of Half-Orcs or replay the massive Battle of the Pelennor Fields, White Dwarf's got you covered. These and... well, not more, just these, actually. Yeah, that's it. And a review of Forces of Fantasy. But still, great stuff to include in those 1st edition games!

Ever wanted to know how to make an army in Warhammer 1st edition? No? Well, we're going to talk about it anyway in this episode, dedicated to a little paperback booklet with the grand name the Book of Battalions, which gives you 11 sample armies (and the opportunity to buy them of course). Oh yeah, and GJ has got some major life changes coming up. But more importantly: Warhammer!

We've got some new Old World news! Which, if you're at all active on social media, you already know by now. But what you probably don't know is that you can't play Warhammer without a GM. Unless you want to of course, in that case it's totally fine. Apparently in the 80s it was a lot easier planning a game with 3 people. Nowadays, I've even got trouble planning a solo game. But the Ziggurat of Doom is coming! Someday...

The Forces of Fantasy Podcast presents: Forces of Fantasy volume 1: Forces of Fantasy. Sorry, had to do that. Today is all about building up your Warhammer 1st edition armies, which you can mix and match from different factions. Big fun, it's only that the rules for Chaos are a bit... chaotic.
Here's the Awesome Lies blog I mentioned:

Apart from many, many, MANY, many very cheap metal miniatures, the First Citadel Compendium also contains a treasure trove of errata, new rules, clarifications and a lovely scenario of an unlikely Frogman (a Slann, of course, what were you thinking?) who leads his village of Norsemen on a raid in the jungle which may or may not or may probably end in genocide. Ah, we're going to miss you, 1983!

Friend of the show Joern Huenteler comes on to talk about his love for Warhammer, his Call of the Crown Wood Elf army and painting techniques. He also doesn't shy away from sharing some deeply personal stuff.

Right from the very beginning, GW provided additional rules, units, scenarios and other ways to play in White Dwarf. In this episode, we'll travel back to the tail end of 1983 and take a look at 3 White Dwarf articles that provide new and interesting ways to play 1st edition Warhammer Fantasy.

We'll close off our look at the 1st edition core books today with the Characters and Magic books. These give a ton of options for role-playing settings, and there's even a quick and easy Wizard generator which I'll definitely try out on the podcast's Patreon page.

We've gotten some Old World news! Games Workshop revealed the factions that will be prominent in their upcoming new game. These "Forces of W:tOW" (which doesn't have nearly the same ring to it as "Forces of Fantasy") show us not only which armies we will get rules for, but also some models that are almost certainly probably maybe going to be re-released. Hopefully.
