Warhammer Old World: Laying Down The Lore

• 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

• 48: Champions of Khorne | Warhammer Old World Lore

  Continuing our dive into the chaos gods and their champions, it is the turn of the martial  blood god Khorne. We start with an existential conversation on what drives mortals to become his champions and their violent relationship with other champions, using the former Knight of the Blazing Suns, Slaurith, as a prime example. We turn our attention to the murderous cultists of Khorne and the blood gods strained and confusing stance on magic. We dive into the continuing adventures of Aarball the Undefeated and his enormous flesh hound mount (Gabby). We explore the tale of Valkia the Bloody, the "Shield-Maiden of Khorne", a fearsome champion and consort of Khorne. We close the episode with a “when Khorne goes bad” tale of Scyla Anfingrimm, glorious chaos champion turned chaos spawn after one to many reward-naps. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster

• 47: Champions of Nurgle | Warhammer Old World Lore

  Are you sick? Are you struggling with disease? Ask your apothecary if Nurgle is right for you. This episode we ooze into the worship and followers of Grandfather Nurgle. We look at the twin cultures of joyful hopelessness and bone shattering despair that characterise his many followers be they mortal cultists or the brutal Pestigor beastmen that … plague? … the Empire. Cral is delighted to hear the further adventures of Festus Leechlord and both he and Ben are mightily impressed by the Glorious brother that comprise the Glottkin, we close out the episode with the depressing tale of Valnir the reaper and reveal that it’s not all laughs and puss in the garden of Nurgle, there are mopy edgelords too. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster

• 46: Champions of Slaanesh | Warhammer Old World Lore

  What does it take to become a Warrior of the Dark Prince? We look at the type of culture that exists within the Hordes of Slaanesh and their Slaangor Beastmen allies. Two magic items are used to illustrate the corruption of Slaanesh that may lead many to the path of Excess. We then veer north and describe a number of Slaaneshi Chaos Champions. We start with two denied High Elves; Gilberion and Dechala. We look at the life of Styrkaar , the would-be final sexy champion of the Storm of Chaos before discussing the hypnotic overlord of Slaaneshi Mortals, Sigvald the Magnificent. We detail his rise to power, his Gilded Palace and his eventual deal with the god Slaanesh themselves. We close with an uncomfortable interlude where Ben and Cral man-crush hard on an image of Sigvald… ⁠⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster

• 45: The Storm of Chaos | Warhammer Old World Lore

  In this episode we look at the campaign that never was, the Storm of Chaos ... aos ... aos... We start with the overly eager Chaos Zar Surtha Lenk as he invades the Empire and lays siege to the Wolfenburg. We detail the internal and External schism of the empire that is somewhat resolved by the Conclave of Light. We discuss the political genius of the Emperor Karl Franz in dealing with Sigmar Reborn and the titanic battles all factions on the Fated Place must endure. When then go through a the campaign at nose-bleed speed with a lot of "meanwhiles" and "suddenlies". We end the episode in the same weird anti-climactic tone of the campaign itself and decide that it is better that it was all retconned... THIS NEVER HAPPENED ⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster
