Hi All, For today’s rant we are focusing on the highs and lows of Warhammer Underworlds (WU).

Script Doctor – Fixing the End Times’ Story
Whatever you think of Age of Sigmar as a game, I think we can all agree the fluff surrounding the end times was a complete disaster. From inconsistent character motivations and actions to story lines being introduced in one book only to be dropped in the next, it’s a big mess. As someone who encourages…
This Month in Warhammer History – Nov. 2012
Hi All,I think it is important, and helpful, to remember how the 40k/Sigmar/WHFB hobby has changed over the years. It can be surprising to learn just how old some sculpts are (the current Dark Eldar Venom model would be in 6th grade right now if it were a child, and it still holds up! )…

Happy Thursday everyone! Today’s article is focused on reviewing the Path to Glory rules for the Ossiarch Bonereapers (OBR).

How the Setting Impacts the Stories Told in the Old World and in the Age of Sigmar
One of the more interesting things to watch unfold is to see how GW has tried to develop the lore of Age of Sigmar. In the seven years since its release GW has tried to fill out the shell of its world through a staggering amount of development of its key characters. They have introduced…
Age of Sigmar Narrative Interview – Holy Havoc Team Event Recap
Hi All, Steve from Holy Havoc was kind enough to come back and give a wrap up interview about how the event went! 1. So how did the story go! What was the epic conclusion of the narrative? SH: Better than 40% of the 30 teams were able to have their Warlord of Havoc ascend…
Narrative (Mini) Review – Soulblight Gravelords
