In this, our first episode of a mystery faction, we start off with their mysterious place in the game, their mysterious beginnings in 3rd editions and their limited but very mysterious number of army books through the editions. We look at their original and slightly mysterious framing as a ||REDACTED|| faction and their evolution into a High Fantasy version of the same ||REDACTED|| faction. We dive into their mysterious bifurcated society and the roles each section play before closing out with a brief but extraordinarily mysterious tour around their homeland and the more populous religions found there. Oh sweet mystery!Show notesPatreonChunks of DharMerchandiseQuartermaster

52: Warriors of Chaos Warfare | Warhammer Old World Lore
In this our final episode on the warriors of Chaos we take a dive into the tabletop version of the army. We start with the core troops available to all chaos tribes and then expand out to include the more specialised and godbound troop types such as the comical Wrathmongers and the swift Hellstriders. We touch on older versions of the army and the allies and mercenaries they could take, including Dark Elves (Slaanesh), Undead (Nurgle), and Chaos Dwarfs (Khorne)... Tzeentch gets nothing … as planned. Show notesPatreonChunks of DharMerchandiseQuartermaster

51: Archaon the Everchosen | Warhammer Old World Lore
In this episode we look at the champions of Chaos Undivided and what it takes to become such a champion. We start with a brief look at Vardek Crom and Kordel Shorgaar, the chief lieutenant and standard bearer of Archaon respectively. We touch upon the Inevitable City, a key strongpoint for Archaon before having a gander at the “Executioner of Chaos”, Wulfrik the Wanderer. We finally explore Archaon the Everchosen and the six great treasures he had to claim before being crowned by a petulant Be’Lakor. Show notesPatreonChunks of DharMerchandiseQuartermaster

50: Chaos Undivided | Warhammer Old World Lore
This episode we turn our attention to the concept of chaos undivided and the role it plays in the tale of chaos as a whole. We discuss the philosophy of “The Great Beast” and how that is expressed through the tribes and armies as a whole in an almost modular fashion. We then take a look at what happens when an entire culture is abandoned by the chaos gods after millennia of favour… the Fimir have returned!

49: Champions of Tzeentch | Warhammer Old World Lore
This episode we focus our attention on the dread Changer of Ways, Tzeentch and his love of corruption and subversion of the status quo. We touch on the corruption of magic users and the extensive use the forces of Tzeentch have of chaos cults and their bestial cousins, the Tzangor, before diving into the Armies of Tzeentch and units such as the Silver Knights of Tzeentch and the fearsome Mutalith Vortex Beast. We turn our attention to the champions of Tzeentch, namely the tragic rise of Melekh and the plant blooming journey of Aekold Helbrass. We close out the episode with the schemes of Egrimm van Horstmann, his various alliances with the dark powers and the event that triggered his fall into the clutches of Tzeentch ... as planned.Show notesPatreonChunks of DharMerchandiseQuartermaster
