    Guess what? I’m not dead yet! [Cue disappointed groans] No, honestly, I’m getting better! Anyway, while real life has so far kept getting in the way of recording another episode, I have been devising some cunning plans to get back out there again. One of them is to make shorter episodes (the topics at hand lend themselves very well to that). Another one is to just get behind the microphone and record. Which is exactly what I did! Enjoy this discussion of the newly released (back in '86) Chaos Dwarf and Ogre miniatures!

    30 - Skaven sneak into Second Edition

    30 - Skaven sneak into Second Edition

    For this episode we take a look at the third Citadel Journal (Spring '86). Turns out, there's a LOT to unpack. Not only do we get background and rules for some of the catalog miniatures, we also get an entire new faction, the Skaven, with full rules and lore. And as if that's not enough, the Terror of the Lichemaster continues with a three-way battle over the famous monastery of La Maisontaal. Get ready for the Forces of Fantasy's longest episode to date.

    29 - Terror of the Lichemaster

    29 - Terror of the Lichemaster

    Visit Frugelhofen, they said. See the lovely mountain, they said. Walk over to the Bogels' dairy farm, they said. Wonder at the diligent Dwarf miners, they said. Get attacked by a horde of zombies and skeletons (flaming heads optional), that they didn't say. Nor that there is a very real chance of being killed so some run-down Necromancer named Kemmler can live for another day - or worse, that your life gets converted into a magic point for said Necro. Oh well, better get a sword and hide behind that halfling with the cooking pot on his head...

    28 - Robotic Reindeer and Sinister Santas

    28 - Robotic Reindeer and Sinister Santas

    A lot has happened in 2023, and I mean A LOT. Both in my personal life and related to the podcast. So let's take a look in the rearview mirror. Oh, and don't be surprised if you see an cybernetic reindeer pulling a sleigh loaded out with presents and cannons. It's all part of the time of the year (well, at least it was in 1985).

    27 - Malal hii, Malal huu, Malal hoo, Malal haa

    27 - Malal hii, Malal huu, Malal hoo, Malal haa

    Did you sing the episode title? If so, I won't apologize for that earworm. It fits with the theme of Chaos that we see coming up more and more in GW publications as time progresses. This episode, we're taking a look at the Third Citadel Compendium  However, where Chaos is on the rise, content is slacking. The first two iterations also gave us a lot of gaming articles, this one is mostly about modelling, painting and the catalogue pages. Still, plenty of stuff to go on. And of course a brand new comic strip featuring Kaleb Daark, a hero of the Chaos god Malal. What, never heard of him? Well, can't blame you. There's a reason, as you will hear.
