A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the inside of a cave. Closest to the camera are Morgwaeth's Blade-coven, a five-fighter warband consisting of lithe female elves who aren't wearing a whole lot of armour. At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

More Warhammer Underworlds tonight, my murder-ladies versus @yayKM's filthy goatmen. We ended up calling it after the first activation of the third round because she had exactly one 2-wound character left and I was ahead 8-5. Unfortunately I think it might be time to retire the goatmen, or at least until I can get around to stealing someone's Championship format deck, they're just too weak. 😞

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the bottom of a forest with gnarled roots everywhere. Closest to the camera are the three miniatures of The Wurmspat, they're all humanoid but corpulent with pustulant skin and extra tentacles coming from various places. At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

We played another game of #WarhammerUnderworlds tonight, @yayKM's filthy goatmen versus my even filthier and significantly more pustulant devotees of Nurgle. It was the lowest scoring game we've had in ages, I managed to get to 9 glory but only right at the end, and @yayKM only got 2. However, she can take solace in the fact that on no fewer than three occasions she needed to roll a critical success in order to not die (essentially rolling a 6 on a regular six-sided die), and managed to pull it off! Once we'd finished I came back around the lounge to get the bag and put all the pieces away and Beanie had made himself extremely comfortable next to one of the foam trays.

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the inside of a cave. Closest to the camera are Skittershank's Clawpack, which consists five ratmen in various dynamic poses (one of them is in the middle of leaping over a smoke bomb he's just set off). At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

We played some more Warhammer Underworlds tonight, my sneaky tricksy Skaven versus @yayKM's filthy goatmen. I ended up winning 11-8 but MAN was it tight right up until my very last activation of the whole game. The attacks I made in my second last and last activations were absolutely critical, because had I flubbed them — or had @yayKM successfully defended — she would have won 8-5 instead. Fully SIX glory came from killing her leader (two for killing him because he was a Large fighter, and another four from three different objectives)!

A photo of three heavily-armoured fantasy-type warriors. One is holding a long staff behind her and looks like she's in the middle of flying just above the ground, the second has a cool hood/cloak thing going on and has one hand in front of him levitating a giant rock, and the third has a sword and staff and is pointing his staff forwards like he's about to cast some magic from it.

A photo of five miniatures. The leader is androgynous and skinny and has four arms and no eye sockets and is wearing a long robe, and the other four are smaller and... just really fucked up. It's hard to describe. One is like a starfish but with an eye in the middle and a fish body, the second is running on four legs but has like six eyes and a mouth that goes most of the way around its body, the third is a leaning back on its arms and has like a bird head, while its lower half of body is too short and its feet are holding up a swirling ball of magic, and the last one is also like a starfish with an eye in the middle but it has three-fingered hands at the end of each of its five arms and it's capering along the ground while holding magical flame above its "head".

There we go, Domitan's Stormcoven and Ephilim's Pandaemonium are both assembled! All of the Warhammer Underworlds warbands are push-fit — meaning you still need to chop them out of the sprue, but gluing them together isn't required if you're not actually going to paint them because there's little poles on some pieces that go into holes on other pieces inside the miniatures to keep them together — but holy FUCK were the Pandemonium irritating to put together, they would have been SO much easier if they hadn't been required to be push-fit. 😫

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. The artwork looks like a bunch of huge tree roots and on one side they look like they're going down into a river of blood. On the side closest to the camera are six zombies and a zombie master in a flowing purple cloak, and on the other side are six beastly goatmen.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds in a while, and my first outing with the Exiled Dead! @yayKM won 9-7 with Grashrak's Despoilers, and I realised I was playing a couple of things wrong and also misread one of my objectives. It was a lot of fun though, and the shenanigans with Exiled Dead are fantastic.

A photo of the front of the box of the new Warhammer Underworlds release. The artwork has a guy in golden armour with a big blue cloak with a hood standing there with a staff and casting some sort of magic, and below that are two more similar figures fighting off freaky-looking misshapen daemons.

Yesssss, very excited to put the warbands in Wyrdhollow together and take them for a spin, they look like great fun, lots of magic-casting!

A photo of six zombie miniatures and the zombie master guy who's in a long flowing deep purple cloak and who is wearing a skin mask. Four of the zombies have poles coming out of them with wires connected between each pole, in a very Frankensten-esque manner. One has an arm that's WAY larger than its regular arm that's been grafted onto it.

And that's the Exiled Dead all done! I HAD to add some blood effects, of course. 😁

A photo of six zombie miniatures and the zombie master guy who's in a long flowing deep purple cloak and whose face is... not quite human. Four of the zombies have poles coming out of them with wires connected between each pole, in a very Frankensten-esque manner. One has an arm that's WAY larger than its regular arm that's been grafted onto it.

The Exiled Dead are coming along excellently, I reckon I'll probably have them all finished and varnished tomorrow!

A photo of the side and rear of a hunched-over zombie that has poles coming out of its back. The poles are connected to each other via wires, and the wires are MEANT to look like they're lit up with electricity and there's light being cast on its back but... it doesn't look very good.

Another zombie but from the front and, this one is upright and mid-shamble with one hand reaching out in front of it. It's got the same poles and wires sticking up from behind it that the other one did, but I didn't bother doing the lighting effect and they're just dark green. The zombie's skin is mostly skin-coloured but with an unnatural green hue to it and you can see part of its brain where the top of its skull is missing.

I decided to start on the Warhammer Underworlds warband The Exiled Dead, tried doing some object source lighting on the first one and it looks pretty shit, to the point that I may just re-base coat it tomorrow and start over. Really happy with the second though!

A photo of the start of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's set on a hex-based board, the art on the board looks like it's bunch of gnarled tree roots. Closest to the camera are the Gorechosen of Dromm, a three-fighter warband of large warriors, and on the other side are Khagra's Ravagers, a four-fighter warband of smaller but more heavily-armoured warriors.

Mid-week gaming this week was Chaos vs. Chaos in Warhammer Underworlds: the Gorechosen of Dromm against Khagra's Ravagers! It ended up being a draw at 10-10, but I was extremely happy with that because JESUS CHRIST @[email protected]'s rolling was on FIRE. I think he saved against every single attack I made for the like the first turn and a half with the exception of one initial wallop from the Gorehulk, but the most ridiculous was me rolling two dice on attack and rolling two crits, and to avoid Khagra dying he needed to roll two crits on defence ...which he pulled off. I guess it makes up for the absolute wholloping I gave him last time (https://virtualwolf.org/media/posts/2302). 😅
