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.

01 Jun 2024 | 32 - Of Ogres and Chaos Dwarfs | 00:29:30 | |
Guess what? I’m not dead yet! [Cue disappointed groans] No, honestly, I’m getting better! Anyway, while real life has so far kept getting in the way of recording another episode, I have been devising some cunning plans to get back out there again. One of them is to make shorter episodes (the topics at hand lend themselves very well to that). Another one is to just get behind the microphone and record. Which is exactly what I did! Enjoy this discussion of the newly released (back in '86) Chaos Dwarf and Ogre miniatures!

11 Jul 2023 | 10 - Book of Battalions | 00:51:11 | |
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!

21 Dec 2023 | 28 - Robotic Reindeer and Sinister Santas | 01:28:40 | |
A lot has happened in 2023, and I mean A LOT. Both in my personal life and related to the podcast. So let's take a look in the rearview mirror. Oh, and don't be surprised if you see an cybernetic reindeer pulling a sleigh loaded out with presents and cannons. It's all part of the time of the year (well, at least it was in 1985).

17 Oct 2023 | 20 - Who goes where? | 02:22:25 | |
Last time we discussed the Known World and its history, today it's time to take a look at all the peoples, denizens, beasties and monsters that live, or walk, or float in the Warhammer World as it was envisioned in 2nd edition. From old favourites like Orcs and Elves to lost creatures such as the Coatl and the Jabberwock, you'll find it all in this extensive review of the latter half of the Battle Bestiary for second edition! Check out the Old World release news here: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/10/14/warhammer-day-preview-the-kingdom-of-bretonnia-revealed/ and here: https://player.twitch.tv/?parent=www.warhammer-community.com&time=0h55m11s&video=1950755469 as well as my 2 cents on it over here: https://youtu.be/wHNecQjLCiM

25 Jul 2023 | 12 - Bonus ep: Orange you a Troll Slayer? | 00:21:33 | |
News from the Old World! We get a sneak peak at some of the game mechanics that we will get in Warhammer: the Old World, as well as a detailed look at some of the images included. Enjoy this little news update bonus episode! | |||
27 May 2023 | 4 - Characters, Magic, and Magic Charaters | 00:55:52 | |
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. | |||
19 Sep 2024 | 36 - The Slaughterer and the Tin Man | 00:46:15 | |
What if you don’t want to play regular Warhammer? Then there’s the Warhammer Fantasy Role Playing game! And what if you don’t want that either? Don’t worry, White Dwarf 83 has got you covered with a special mini game. And if you don’t want to play THAT either? Well, then I’m sorry it took you 36 episodes to realize, but then this might just not be the podcast for you. But for all the rest of you, here’s a new episode full of Vikings, Ogre on Chaos Dwarf carnage (with some added Fanatics and a robot, because, why not?) and if you’re quick some new Chaos Made to Order miniatures.

27 Sep 2023 | 17 - Let’s smash some skulls (again) | 02:39:18 | |
Welcome to the next phase of the Forces of Fantasy podcast, in which we leave 1st edition behind us (although not quite, as you will see) and start our read-through of 2nd edition. Or, at least, the first book of 2nd edition. A slightly longer episode than usual, but I guess that just show you how much Warhammer has matured in a year and a half. Or at least, how much of a mess the 1st edition rules were in hindsight. | |||
05 Nov 2024 | 38 - You look... familiar | 00:52:45 | |
The forces of Chaos unleash their worst! Tremble before such names as Demonnet, Mite and Homonculus! And they Chaos Sorcerers these familiars accompany are pretty decent too. But it's mostly the familiars that steal the glory. Oh, and there's also some new miniatures that may or may not be of use in your armies. But hey, look at the cool old stuff!

03 Jul 2023 | 9 - Three to tango | 01:03:44 | |
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...

15 Nov 2023 | 23 - Ambushers and Crusaders | 01:02:54 | |
Look out! We’re being ambushed! With 2nd edition goodness, that is! This episode is all about a single issue of White Dwarf, no 66 (June 1985) which contains an Open Box review of Warhammer 2nd edition, the rules for fighting ambushers and two new (and related) Regiments of Renown.

19 Sep 2023 | 16 -The Seeds of the Warhammer World | 01:55:36 | |
In this episode we revisit some of the previously discussed materials for First Edition Warhammer Fantasy and take a look at the bits and bobs of lore we're getting. What has changed? And what has stayed the same throughout later editions? Lots, either way, surprisingly enough. | |||
24 Jul 2023 | 11 - White Dwarf rules and scenarios | 01:20:43 | |
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!

12 Jan 2024 | 29 - Terror of the Lichemaster | 01:46:34 | |
Visit Frugelhofen, they said. See the lovely mountain, they said. Walk over to the Bogels' dairy farm, they said. Wonder at the diligent Dwarf miners, they said. Get attacked by a horde of zombies and skeletons (flaming heads optional), that they didn't say. Nor that there is a very real chance of being killed so some run-down Necromancer named Kemmler can live for another day - or worse, that your life gets converted into a magic point for said Necro. Oh well, better get a sword and hide behind that halfling with the cooking pot on his head...

07 Dec 2024 | 39 - Of Balrogs and undead mercenaries (Citadel Journal Spring 87 part 1) | 01:05:16 | |
Just like GW makes you wait a long time after certain announcements, so too does this podcast. But it's all the sweeter when they finally get released! So too (hopefully) with this episode, in which we look back at some (announcements of) new releases and (announcements of) old releases, in the first look at the Citadel Journal Spring 1987. So get set, for this is going to be a multi-part episode.

03 Sep 2024 | 34 - Ninja vs Chaos Warriors | 00:34:57 | |
There's a lot to unpack in White Dwarf 81, which is exactly what we're going to do in this episode. Well, after grumpy old GJ ranting on about new miniatures and how the pacing of GW is too fast and how franchises used to be better in the past, that is. #warhammer #warhammertheoldworld #gamesworkshop #warhammerfantasy #oldhammer

31 Aug 2023 | 14 - Drunk Octopus | 01:01:48 | |
My apologies for my prolonged absence. It has a reason, I promise. Well, multiple reasons, to be fair. But now I'm back, and we've got a lot of catching up to do about all the hobby stuff I've been doing as well as the recent releases from Nova Open. Because who doesn't need a drunk octopus on their gaming table...?

07 Jan 2025 | 42 - Dragon-Bolt (no Z) | 01:18:06 | |
Happy new year! Do you see those fireworks? They seem to be getting awfully close, though... And they also seem more like dragon-bolts (yes, that's a real type of dragons' breath weapon) than fireworks, come to think of it. Better check if I'm allowed to make a save... This episode covers the next section of the Citadel Journal Spring 1987, which is mostly dragons. But there's also a daemon. A shiny golden one, to be precise. Here's some of the articles mentioned in the news section: https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/df2beqmo/chop-dragons-down-to-size-with-the-legendary-wyrm-slayer-of-bretonnia/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/yuhxdqrv/swindle-and-smash-with-the-new-hobgrot-honcho-orruk-terrain-and-manifestations/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/glalb5fm/old-world-almanack-made-to-order-in-a-time-of-anarchy/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/ssvcpoae/saturday-pre-orders-mankind-makes-its-mark-on-the-world-of-legend/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/reyt1ogb/old-world-almanack-the-empire-and-its-armies-of-infamy/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/lp2kr6wu/old-world-almanack-whats-up-with-the-empire-of-man/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/lv57psru/saturday-pre-orders-the-ven-densts-drop-in-for-boxing-day/ Want to get in touch?

11 Sep 2024 | 35 - Hello, sailor! | 00:52:36 | |
Warhammer takes to the seas in this White Dwarf 82 article with "simple" (and notoriously incomplete) rules for sailing ships. Get some cardboard and balsa wood to build ships, bang them together until they sink and hope there's room for you too on that door.
In sadder news, we learn that beloved White Dwarf editor Paul Sawyer has fallen terminally ill. His family have set up a GoFundMe to make Paul's final months as comfortable as possible: https://www.gofundme.com/f/make-dads-remaining-months-happy-comfortable?utm_campaign=fp_ss_icons_ai&utm_content=amp9v1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link. If you're the praying type, I encourage you to say a prayer for Paul and his family.

26 Jun 2023 | 8 - Forces of Fantasy (vol 1) | 00:54:59 | |
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.

19 May 2023 | 1. Forces of Fantasy Podcast Introduction | 00:25:50 | |
What's that? ANOTHER Warhammer Fantasy podcast? Why, yes. Yes it is. Wargames Orchard co-host GJ wants to take things to the next level and have a new podcast fully dedicated to all things Warhammer Fantasy and then some. The backbone of the podcast will be a chronological look at all the Warhammer Fantasy publications from 1st edition onwards. In this episode, you'll hear all about GJ's hobby background. | |||
06 Feb 2024 | 30 - Skaven sneak into Second Edition | 03:48:40 | |
For this episode we take a look at the third Citadel Journal (Spring '86). Turns out, there's a LOT to unpack. Not only do we get background and rules for some of the catalog miniatures, we also get an entire new faction, the Skaven, with full rules and lore. And as if that's not enough, the Terror of the Lichemaster continues with a three-way battle over the famous monastery of La Maisontaal. Get ready for the Forces of Fantasy's longest episode to date.

29 Oct 2024 | 37 - Halloween special | 00:36:50 | |
Spooky season is upon us! But why do we (well, you, probably) celebrate Halloween? Let's dive into some real-world origins of this haunted holiday. And let's also not forget to explore some terrifying tales from the Undead and Vampire Counts army books.

19 Dec 2024 | 40 - Goin' Stunty | 01:04:09 | |
We're picking up where we left off with the Citadel Journal Spring 1987. This episode, we're taking a look at two war machines: the (in)famous Man Mangler and the Elven equivalent of the A-team in their attack chariot. Also, there's skeletons. Lots of skeletons. And they're plastic. An anonymous author who may or may not be Rick Priestly (quite possibly not) explains why the plastic skeleton kit is so amazing (I agree!) and how to get the most out of it.

31 Mar 2025 | 48 - Ravening Orcs | 01:18:57 | |
Just one army list today? Yes, but there's a reason for that, as you will hear on the podcast. Or an excuse. Either way, it's just one, but an important one: Orcs and Goblins. They are very much the same as in later editions, yet also oddly different. See for yourself...

05 Jun 2023 | 5 - Thank you Mr. Dever! | 01:32:30 | |
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.

23 May 2023 | 3 - Forces of Warhammer: The Old World | 00:18:17 | |
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. | |||
07 Dec 2023 | 26 - Blood on the Streets! | 01:57:34 | |
It must be one of the most misnamed Warhammer materials: Blood on the Streets. Don't get me wrong, the pack is absolutely awesome with 12 cardboard buildings and a 22-page booklet that gives you the background for three adjacent villages in a forgotten corner of the Empire. But as to the title, there's no blood (because it doesn't contain scenarios) and there are no streets (only buildings). That said, let's have some fun exploring the Riding and its varied inhabitants and strange customs. Anyone fancy another frog? (Don't worry, that question will make sense eventually). #warhammer #warhammertheoldworld #gamesworkshop #warhammerfantasy #oldhammer Links to the articles mentioned: Old World Almanack on Magic: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/12/04/old-world-almanack-how-magic-brings-a-sparkle-to-the-battlefield/ (and YouTube review of it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr_bYwid3xQ).

26 Aug 2024 | 33 - Black-masked Dwarfs with respirators | 00:29:49 | |
What do you do when you learn about the existence of your evil kin? You gather all troops you can find and march to war! That is exactly what king Ulfar Stonehammer does when he learns about the existence of Chaos Dwarfs. But is leaving home at a time like this such a good idea? Before you know it, your hold gets retroactively taken over by Goblins! In this episode we delve into White Dwarf 80 and meet the Imperial Dwarfs. | |||
05 Oct 2023 | 18 - Magical Mayhem | 01:25:08 | |
"Pssst! Hey, you. Yeah, you there. Always wanted to be a wizard? Just touch my puss... eh, this golden cat statue. Watch your step though, don't break that urn..." Yes, the above can very well have been an actual conversation in 2nd edition Warhammer Fantasy - scroll to the very end of the episode if you want to find out how that works. Speaking of how things work, in this episode we'll discuss the ins and outs of the magic system. So get your pointy hats on, take out your wand and let's get casting! As mentioned on the show, here's the leaked Pegasus pictures: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bretonnian/comments/170ctbu/i_had_planned_to_keep_this_one_under_wraps_but/?share_id=eXPvf1LJ_N-7YYL2FW3Wf&utm_content=1&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1

14 Dec 2023 | 27 - Malal hii, Malal huu, Malal hoo, Malal haa | 01:04:51 | |
Did you sing the episode title? If so, I won't apologize for that earworm. It fits with the theme of Chaos that we see coming up more and more in GW publications as time progresses. This episode, we're taking a look at the Third Citadel Compendium However, where Chaos is on the rise, content is slacking. The first two iterations also gave us a lot of gaming articles, this one is mostly about modelling, painting and the catalogue pages. Still, plenty of stuff to go on. And of course a brand new comic strip featuring Kaleb Daark, a hero of the Chaos god Malal. What, never heard of him? Well, can't blame you. There's a reason, as you will hear.

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. | |||
06 Sep 2023 | 15 - Amazing Amazonian Armaments | 00:54:27 | |
Did you know Lustria is teeming with Amazons? And that they have very advanced weapons? Which you can loot? Well, you do now, thanks to the scenario in the Second Citadel Compendium. Get ready for a wild ride of cheap miniatures you definitely shouldn't suck, koka-induced crazed fanatical women hiding in temples distributing bolter pistols (though I don't think they claim to provide the basis for a system of government) and a hattrick of competitions.

22 Dec 2024 | 41 - Silent Knight, Green Knight | 02:57:34 | |
Merry Christmas everyone! For this special episode we're going to do something completely different. I invite you to come and sit by the campfire and listen to the complete, unabridged tale of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Because if Die Hard is a Christmas movie (of course it is!) then this is a Christmas story, and even more so.

30 Nov 2023 | 25 - Journaling time | 01:28:45 | |
Remember that quarterly publication known as the Citadel Journal? Yeah, neither does GW. But they had such high hopes. Even in this Second Citadel Journal, released half a year after the first, they still want to go quarterly. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to be glad with what we did get. A new scenario, modelling and painting tips, behind the scenes glimpses, more Regiments of Renown and of course lots and lots of British humour. Not bad, for a not-quite-quarterly publication.

02 Nov 2023 | 22 - The Citadel Journal’s first issue | 01:50:15 | |
It's time to take a look at the Citadel Journal Spring 1985. Well, also at White Dwarf 63, but all the relevant stuff that's in there is also in the Journal, so let's just do the Journal. We get rules errata, reader questions, announcements of grand plans and more Regiments of Renown than any sane man could field. And we get the rules for a very special and elusive monster that once haunted the Citadel headquarters in Nottingham...

Welcome to the first full episode of the Forces of Fantasy podcast, where your host GJ discusses the general rules for the 1st edition of Warhammer Fantasy.

23 Nov 2023 | 24 - Blood Bath at Orc’s Drift | 02:04:40 | |
What do you do when you are a disgraced Orc? Kill the king and take over the land, of course! With the help of your trusty, or rather, untrustworthy, Orc lieutenants. Nothing stands in the way, except some Elves, some Dwarfs, and some Humans. And then some more Elves, Dwarfs and Humans, holed up at a place called Orc's Drift. It's probably going to be a blood bath. But you will prevail! If the other's arrive, eventually. Or your name is not King F'yar!

26 Oct 2023 | 21 - The Magnificent Sev... er... Sven | 01:47:23 | |
What do you get when you combine a tabletop fantasy game with a classic western movie? The Magnificent Sven, of course! This episode we drive our trusty Voltsvagn (not what you think) to Vastervik (not where you think) and help some poor villagers fight off toads - or die trying. We take our time machine back to 1984 for the final time with this look at the The Magnificent Sven scenario that came in the Warhammer second edition box set. And since it's an introductory scenario, you don't really need much. Because nothing says "welcome to Warhammer" quite like needing a dining table fit for an orphanage, multiple friends, lots of time and a few hundred miniatures. The articles discussed in the news section: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/10/23/warhammer-age-of-sigmar-battleforces-four-incredible-boxed-sets-for-the-festive-season/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/10/22/sunday-preview-the-cities-of-sigmar-muster/ Here you can find the full theme song for The Magnificent Seven (well worth a listen!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XDB7GMnbUQ&ab_channel=ADProductionsLtd And here's the movie itself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MZY_0tYmrs&ab_channel=StarEntertainmentEnglish

19 Jun 2023 | 7 - The Legend of Kremlo the Slann | 01:07:59 | |
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! | |||
08 Mar 2025 | 46 - The Hordes are Ravening | 00:35:46 | |
Let's take our first look at the Ravening Hordes book for 2nd edition WHFB. This book gives us new rules, and, more importantly, new army lists. But before we get to that, we first have to see we survive... the introduction.

Alright class, pay attention. Today's topics are geography and history. Who can tell me where the New Coast lies? The entrance to the Elf Kingdoms? Who discovered Lustria?

15 Jan 2025 | 43 - Goblin strategy | 01:21:38 | |
It's taken four episodes, but today we finally can close the book, er, magazine, on the Citadel Journal Spring 1987. It's given us lots of cool rules, new models and even a few promises! And of course some strategy tips, one of which even works every time! At least, as long as your opponent is an Elf. Dig in!

26 Mar 2025 | 47 - New rules rule | 02:07:16 | |
It's inevitable that an expansion booklet that gives you new army lists also gives you some new rules. In this episode, we take a look at the additions and changes to Warhammer 2nd edition that were needed to use the Ravening Hordes book. Anything from terrain setup to deployment to magic items to manoeuvres and formations to characters and challenges to rout, rallying and pursuit to... no, wait, that's it. But that's still plenty to unpack and compare to earlier and later editions of Warhammer.
