This introductory campaign for Warhammer old world (ahhem.. fantasy) will start in November, Deeside defenders will be launching a narrative campaign to bring back the old world.


interested in joining?


14 members have joined already! you only have until Thursday 31st of October to join the campaign so....


If you're interested in starting with a small force, Levelling-up your characters, units and territories. Join the flintshard campaign following the link below.



The Campaign Map

Once you have signed up, Aiden or Alex will reach out to you and assign you a territory and show you the ropes.

How does it work:

Firstly you will need to prepare your forces for the harsh campaign ahead; presumably you've got some figures and had a go at them with paint and glue? Good.


You are the vassal of some mighty commander of the Warhammer World. They have given you command of an Expeditionary Force, and expect you to carve out territory, fighting battles and winning renown in their name. Of course they may well support you and reward your successes, they'll certainly want a cut of any loot you take..and possibly try to have you assassinated if they think you're getting ideas above your station!


So, first pick which of the available factions you want to play as; decide which master it is you are serving, and decide on your own identity , and then tell the GM (that's me!) . For example, perhaps you are the goblin boss Snotty Facefart, an underling to the great goblin chief Skarsnik, and he has ordered you to steal all the gold before the dwarfs get to it, or else he'll feed you to Gobbla! Or perhaps you are a young Bretonnian knight, and your father, the Duke of Aquitaine, is fed up of you getting under his feet and making the castle look untidy, so he's put you in command of a party of knights Errant and their retainers, and sent you over the sea to carve out a demesne you can call your own, but woe betide you if you forget to write to your mother, because you know how she'll worry...


Feel free to embellish with whatever backstory you'd like to add!


What you need:


The starting points limit will be 600 points.


  • Ignore all the percentages given on the Composition list page of your chosen army list.

     And;

  • Ignore any restriction worded as “X per # points”.

  • Ignore the Battle Standard Bearer upgrade option.


Instead these starting composition percentages will be used by all players:

  • No more than 20% Characters

  • At least 50% Core

  • the remainder may be Special.

  • No Rare choices, Mercenaries, or Allies! You're going to need to earn them!

  • Compulsory choices are still compulsory.

Heavy Chariot, Warmachine, Monstrous Creature.

And you may not include any Behemoths.


You may include a single Common Magic Item, worth no more than 50pts.

You may not include any magic user higher than level 1.


the campaign will start at 600pts, using basic units and a single 'hero' level character, this is to allow players to paint up their forces, build a narrative and learn the game (much like tale of four gamers for those who remember it!).
