A preview of The Horned Rat Expansion for Chaos in the Old World

While the town of Mironia slept, the fog rose from the Blighted Marshes and engulfed the Tilean village. None marked the furtive scuffling of clawed feet across the cobblestones, the eyes of their verminous owners reflecting crimson in the flickering light. But by morning every citizen, like the fog, had disappeared. Only smoking ruins...

A look at the upcoming Horned Rat Expansion for Chaos in the Old World

All decent folk find the common rat repulsive. Harbinger of disease, it scavenges on our waste-heaps and frightens our children. How immeasurably worse then is the Skaven – standing on its hindlegs in foul parody of a human. Rats as tall as men, and blessed with the most vile intellect and cunning. They are the dark side of our...

A strategy article on Chaos in the Old World

The path to victory is a dangerous one indeed. From the predations of your rival gods to the resistance of the Old World, you will be forced to do battle in order to maintain your grasp in the world. Over the next few weeks, we will be examining each of the three paths to victory (dialing up, dominance, and ruination), and how each god approaches these paths. Most often, a god will win by combining these paths, but for now, we are going to focus on each individually.
Our first road to...

Chaos in the Old World is now on sale!

The ruins of my home are still smoldering as I return to look at the damage. We can only come out at night, for fear the hosts of Chaos will find us. We never thought they could win, we thought that a hero would surely rise up and defeat them. We were wrong. Chaos poured out of the frozen north and washed our world away. All we can hope for now is that they will grow tired of their sport long enough for us to rebuild.
