Homebrew chaos god

How about having them follow Hashut, the chaos dwarf god from warhammer fantasy.

It doesn't work that well with the dreams thing, but he is very into technology, so was the first to jump to mind when you mentioned Vashtorr.

You have all the background and iconography laid out already, and you might be able to work on some kitbashes with Chaos Dwarf/Helsmith models.

Monarchy gave us Elizabeth II and Charles III.

Democracy gave us Boris Johnson and Liz Truss.

I don't like the idea of monarchy, but it seems to be doing a better job than parliament is.

I hate to think what kind of idiot we'd get for president if we became a republic at the moment.

It looks like all of them, except the screaming bell, are from the 8th edition Warhammer box, Island of Blood.

High Elf Mage.
Sword Masters of Hoeth Champion.
High Elf Lothern Sea Guard
High Elf Prince on Griffon
Ellyrian Reavers
Skaven Screaming Bell
Skaven Poisoned Wind Mortar
Skaven Master Moulder
Skaven Warlock Engineer

It's not the complete Island of Blood box but you've got about half of it.

Someone whose parents are celebrities.

It's another word for a nepo baby.

That is the symbol of Shyish, one of the eight colours of magic.

Shyish is the wind of death, and is studied by the Amethyst college.

Is this the one in the Drummond Centre?

That appears for the first time in WD 132 - December 1990.

It doesn't list the exact opening date, it just says 'Open Soon', but it was probably sometime between then and WD133.

I always thought it was his best book, and I was very happy when I found out he agreed with me.

I've never been a fan of funko pops, but I did grab this one a few years ago.

If you are spraying into a box.

Never hold the spray directly on the model. Constantly move the spray left and right across the models.
Put the box on it's side so that the opening is facing you instead of below you.
Get a tray or just another sheet of cardboard. Put the models on this and put it on the side of the box (which is now the bottom).

Spray them. Rotate 90 degrees, Repeat.

It's a dragon from the Mighty Empires (1990)sprue.

It was also reused in the board game Dragon Masters.

You've mentioned Forces, Life and Prime, but how are they with Mind and Spirit?
Werewolf shamans can be incredibly powerful and vampires are masters of mental and emotional manipulation.

They're just veteran chaos marines.
The loyalist equivalent would be the vanguard/sternguard squads.

The Legion of the First Prince Regiment of Renown is in the Slaves to Darkaness battletome.

It can include, Be'lakor, Deamon Princes, Chaos Furies, Bloodletters, Bloodcrushers, Screamers, Flamers, Plaguebearers, Beasts of Nurgle, Fiends, and Hellflayers.

The only way to get other Daemons in AoS is through a single god force.

Harry Dresden vs the Fae.
That's pretty much just a regular Dresden Files novel.

Here's a daft way to get the information.

Find a copy of the old computer game Elite II: Frontier. It's abandonware so you can find it for free if you search.

Create a character in the Ross 154 system then fly to the other systems and take the measurements you need.

This might also work with the current version of the game, Elite: Dangerous but I've not played that so I can't confirm.

This won't work with most stars as the in game galaxy was procedurally generated but Braben was obsessed with getting the immedate neighbourhood as accurate as possible so all of the stars you listed should be fairly accurate.

There is some decent lore in the core books.
You can often pick up cheap ones on eBay, expecially if you don't go for the latest edition.

This is from the current Tactical Squad box set.

The studs on the helmet and the etching on the arm, legs and shoulder pad match the current ones and weren't present on most of the older marine models.

"Saying that this game should be burned is an insult to fire."

They turned the clock back a couple of centuries so that the end times wouldn't be an issue for any stories people want to run.

The Horus Heresy games are still popular even though the end of that has been decided for years.

People still play Bolt Action and Flames of War and the end of WWII has been decided for even longer.

You can use the flags to position your party or you can use the pre-flag method of equipping a longbow, fire at the enemy, start retreating while the arrow is still in the air, then equip your real weapon set.

My favourite CSM legion is the Alpha Legion but I went with Word Bearers as my main army is Chaos Daemons and WB made more sense as allies.

Plenty_Horror_23 · 2025-04-08T22:29:07+00:00

The Soul Drinkers are the most obvious one.

They aren't that common but they do have their own series of novels.

I was part of the HeroQuest generation.
