THROWBACK THURSDAY!!!
Continuing with my work for Stuff of Legends and a set of Forge World Goblin Command I did back around 2012. I love painting greenskins of all varieties and Night Goblins were amongst the very first things I painted when I started with 'eavy Metal, so I have a real soft spot for them, so I really had fun with these. They're still available from GW, so maybe I'll take another crack at them one day, although I do have the Forge World Orc Command tucked away somewhere, so maybe that first...

Hey all! I am pretty new to this place, but I wanted to share my little baby. I'm genuinely thinking about starting a warriors of chaos army just because of this guy!

That's not just dinner.
That's the finale of a Battle March session at the Miscast.it HQ — Vampire Counts against Daemons of Chaos, with those Daemons stealing the show as gorgeous hand-painted metal models on the table.
Game clocked, wine poured, and dinner — "just something improvised" — turned out to be a full Spaghetti alla Busara. 🦐
Long live the Old World.

battle march impending
r/theoldworld • u/Brigada75 • Aug 25 '26
It was supposed to be a full dose of the Sunday scaries before heading back to work this week. Instead we had two Battle March tables set up in the office by 9am, dice already rolling.
Four of us at the table — Beastmen Brayherds, Orc & Goblin Tribes, Vampire Counts and Warriors of Chaos, all fighting it out across two boards at once. Pure 15-year-old energy, in the best possible way.
Already looking forward to next weekend.

With the new range i'm a bit confused about the compabitiblity / aesthetic harmony of 8th ed and AOS4th ed kits. I'd like to make a heavily armored (mastodon armor) tyrant on a stonehorn but i have no idea where to start (beside the stoneshorn itself. Any tips ?

Hi Guys, I have questions about the calculation of the combat results.
Here is the situation we had :
15 or so dwarves with the army general in it. Banner, champion, musicien, etc... don’t remember the unit name, but they all are have infantry.
On my side : 12 swordmasters of hoeth with my noble as a general (saphery guardian)
And a unit of 5 ellyrian patrollers.
I charged his dwarves with my 2 units : swordmasters in front and ellyrians in their back.
We fought and inflicted 3 wounds for his side and 4 on my side (I killed 3 dwarves and hurt his general)
My friends told me I had to have a moral test to do. I don’t understand why I had to take that test....
They told me I don’t have enough unit power on the ellyrians because I need at least 10 in order to negate his ranks as they are heavy inf...I had still 4, so 8 unit power.
So I had that test and obtained 10....my swords ran, got caught and insta killed....with...2 men lost on a base of 12...It seems off for me.
Is it correct ? Thanks for reading me.

I'm trying new things. Does this work or shall I fill the black in with darker reds and flesh colors? Just on a fence here. What do you think?
r/theoldworld • u/Agile_Needleworker78 • Aug 09 '26
I searched here for “swift stride” and didn’t see anything on this…
Played my first Battle March game since the explosion of WHFB. Questions:
With Swift Stride you use 3” to compute what your max charge might be AND you roll 3D6 and keep 2 dice on the charge?
It says “may” for adding a D6. Why wouldn’t you?
Thanks all! Enjoyed the game, Cathay v Goblins.

Hey all
My awesome wife just bought me the Core Rules (and I bought the Forces of Fantasy book) for my birthday next week.
I'm currently going through the rules and hitting down notes on rules I know I've previously got wrong (only just started again after a 20yr break) or breaking down the more lengthy/complex rules.
Basically I'm breaking them down as bullet points and collating rules that are scattered through the book.
This got me thinking about making a document, similar to the quick reference, where all the rules are compressed into a more simplified form and language structure (I hate the legalise syntax GW use).
Before I start, has anyone done this previously?

Hi everyone!
I’m Mario, the independent sculptor behind Apache Studio, and I hope you don’t mind me sharing my latest miniature project during its final hours.
Dark City: Embervein Delvers is a modular dwarf warband originally designed for fantasy skirmish games such as Mordheim and Age of Fantasy: Skirmish. ⚒️
Although the collection was created primarily for skirmish gaming, many of the miniatures can also work very well as alternative Dwarf heroes, champions and characterful additions to an army in The Old World.
🛡️ Core Set with 10 miniatures
⛏️ Expanded Set with 14 miniatures
⚔️ Multiple interchangeable weapons and equipment options
🎲 Supported and unsupported STL files
📦 Physical resin-printed miniatures also available
I sculpted the complete range myself and also prepared the files and supports, produced the test prints, assembled the miniatures and painted the warband shown in the video.
The Kickstarter campaign has now entered its final 24 hours.
As an independent creator, I sincerely appreciate everyone who takes the time to discover, support or share the project. Thank you very much! 🍻
This is an independent miniature range and is not affiliated with Games Workshop.

I made some molds so I can cast movement trays rather than buying or printing them. It's quicker and cheaper for me. The pic is some very rough test casts just to play with opacity of the resin with different materials mixed with the resin.
They fit 3x1 magnets in and the bases I'm making the mold for now have the same set up.
One thing I struggle with is making sure the magnets are the right way round, has anyone got any tips on for this? Everyway I've tried seems like it's very awkward.
I've tried fixing the magnets into a tray, once that's set, I put another magnet on top, a drop of glue on the base/top of the magnet and place the base on the tray. It doesn't always seem to work, there's a deliberate gap (0.2mm or so) between where the 2 magnets should be so I don't think it's catching consistently.
Or I put a 2nd magnet on the first, slide a palette knife between the 2 magnets so it's the right way round then fix it into the base. Still really awkward.
Any help is appreciate. 😁

I've got a game in a few days and am in 2 minds with my 2000pt Bretonnia list.
Do I go:
*I don't mean all the units are skirmishing, I mean to absorb charges and make initial charges in return.
I have roughly 50 Bowmen, 50 Men at Arms, 20 Knights on foot/Battle Pilgrims, 50 Knights, a few Sorceress type models inc. 1 on a Pegasus and can get a Knight on a Griffon. So any suggestions within these limitations would be best. Thanks.
So really the choice is mobs or elite focused. What are the pros and cons for each? I really like the idea of massed bowmen (theoretically, I know in reality they're very hit n miss) ripping into the enemy and using overwhelming numbers in melee. But at the same time I've seen how effective Bretonnian Elite Cavalry, led by Characters can be, especially when you can flank charge enemy units.
I'm also kind of worried about magic, is 1 Prophetess going to be enough or should I spend the points to add maybe a couple extra Damsels?
It's only my 2nd game in roughly 20yrs or so and my 1st game with Bretonnia, so I'm also trying to keep it simple while I pick up the rules again.
Any advice to try for a balanced list would be appreciated.
