The Indomitus Crusade is the focus of the latest 40K set piece, with themed game sets and an accompanying novel, written by Gav Thorpe. After a thrilling start following the Ultramarines brutally disabusing a shipful of mutants about their choice to abandon the god-emporer's grace (and giving us a

1971 Tennessee, Brandon Cobb (Deiondre Teagle) has escaped from jail and is on the run – aided by his siblings Angela (Faith Monique) and Clarence (Travis Cutner). The trio plan to lay low in a run-down barn on their grandfather’s old ranch, which is supposed to have been abandoned. As night fa

We have been working hard to develop a game that not only encompasses the best elements of RPG and skirmish games, but also offers something new. Below, we have given an overview of what makes our game different: • A robust core game, supported by “bolt-on” mechanics, including gaining the favour

Newspire stands apart from the human realm's other cities due to it being where the human's living diety, the Grand Ogrun, resides, and therefore enjoys an elevated status across the kingdoms. As such, the kingdom of Skolheim reaps the benefits of having Newspire within its borders, boasting wea

Compared to the other civilised species of Atala, the Grorc is a primitive creature that keeps to the fringes of civilisation, looking for opportunities to take advantage of its neighbours’ weaknesses. Though their society is rudimental, they have language and culture to a degree, and have been know

As a fan of the Warhammer world of old, I've always being a bit wary of the Age of Sigmar, with its flashy, 40K-lite approach. However, that was all about to change as I dived into Cursed City by CL Werner, a fantasy novel set in the blighted, vampire-run city of Ulfenkarn, a nightmarish place in th

A gritty tale about something sinister haunting an outpost on the planet of Potence, York-based author Justin D Hill does a great job of capturing the desolation and desperation of an agri-world on the fringes of Imperium space. The story follows enforcer Rudgard Howe as he leaves the relative

Once rulers of much of Atala, the Tyalhysh Kingdom has suffered a slow decline over the past millennium, with much of the species now confined to the south of the Ikterian continent. They are a wary, yet friendly species, which avoids conflict but is known to use its aerial superiority to quickly

An aquatic species endemic to most coastal waterways. Once one of the most populous races, they have lost their best habitats to human endeavours in the Untisia Strait. Most are now refugees in other distant waters, harbouring a grudge that dates back generations. Even though they prefer the water,

Hey Kindred Geeks, I hope you've been gaming well. We have some amazing collaborators on the V:SOW project, without whom we wouldn't be able to bring the game to life or do it justice. Mariia Borysekno is one such collaborator, responsible for producing much of the game's artwork. I hope you'll

After hearing good things about Dan Abnett's work in the 40K universe, I decided to jump into the Bequin novels, of which there are two in the series so far (he's written well over 20 Warhammer books altogether). Pariah is a novel of two halves - the first sets the scene, with a protagonist (Beta)

Not native to Atala, humans were instead created by the living god the Grand Ogrun 1,000 years ago, to the shock of the other gods. Their arrival had been a surprise, but their predilection for dominance combined with an alarming rate of growth has sent tremors of terror and dismay throughout the wo

Huk-ata is one of the most populous destelt cities, located on the third "pillar" in the Pillars mountain range. Everyone living in the city is in servitude to High Master Krald Bonesplitter, even the other masters. It is possible for a destelt to have many masters, though they are only answerable t

Kindred Geeks, I hope you're gaming well. Here at MWS we got another round of playtesting done over the weekend. This included trying out the new quest system, which we believe makes the game more dynamic and helps to bring the world to life. It also means that each player's journey to victory p

'They think I'm hiding in the shadows. But I am the shadows.' Robert Pattinson growls at the end of his opening monologue as the rain falls on what is, arguably, the best-looking live action adaptation of Gotham city. I was totally in it. As a massive Batman fan, I've said for a long time that th
