Gave it another try. Order my crossbowmen to shoot some skaven, "yes my lord!", they shoot a couple of times, then spend about half an hour wheeling to face the other direction. What!?!

Just a taste of the kind of fun it's been. It's been a while but I can't remember Dark Omen being this screwy. Again, roll on that.

I'm quite confident that Horned Rat was never meant to be completed by any human.
8 times out of 10, your cannons misfire and either blow up or just refuse to work for the remainder of the battle.
Enemies always outnumber you by a wide margin, especially if you happen to take any casualties during any mission because you simply can't replace said casualties.
Archers will be doing most of their fighting in melee because, as mentioned, the enemy is always more numerous and you simply lack the melee units to engage enemies with.

Those are my memories of the game.
Dark Omen I finished without issues.
Horned Rat was a frigging nightmare.

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Are you not interested in a nurse bundle? Maybe i watched too much scrubs...

I mean nurgle of course, but i was typing on my new phone and for some reason the chaos gods don't come pre loaded into the dictionary.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Like I've said before, I'm not a fantasy kinda guy. It just never inspired me at all.

This game, however, I find really interesting and a Total War game at that.

Probably a must buy in the end.

So we get to play doctors and nurses now? It is nice that GW is going back to its role-playing roots.

Went to warhammer world today (new displays are amazing,love the forge world shop, and Bugmans is still Bugmans.) anyway,as I was walking through the displays I was ahead of someone clearly high up in the gw team,giving a tour and explanation to two chaps in suits who were taking notes.he was talking about what fans want,the scale of the universes, the iP and how it should be handled ect. The last things I caugh was a conversation about how any movie would need to be big budget, which is why they are talking to new line.

This is the SALTIEST of salty rumours, but it got my mind cogs turning.

Latest offering is that you can win the new scenery. Count the skulls to win. Sounds like a joke but no it is real.

As a total aside, I reckon the best action movie ever would be Black Hawk Down using the actors' roles from other famous movies.

The American force would include:

Oni Wan Kenobi
Sgt Horvath from Saving Private Ryan
Lucius Malfoy
Legolas Greenleaf
Spud from Trainspotting
Reed Richards
Chuck Yeager
Hector of Troy
Max Rockatansky
Jaime Lannister

and Josh Hartnett

In classic GW style you have you show proof of a £40+ order to even enter.

I just though that the khorne fort looks like a fighting pit/amphitheater , so i now understand the design choice of curved wall sections.
