Oh, but I do appreciate your explaining how the system works. And going through that list of careers I found the PDF for, it looks like there are some subtleties n the system that are not explicitly laid out in the rules. Like the ‘iron breaker’ or ‘slayer’ tags to indicate a very specific and rest...

Second edition had these different levels of advanced careers as well, there it just wasn't named explicitly. There were basic careers, advanced careers which you could reach from those basic careers, and then what I named 'very advanced careers', which could not be reached directly from a basic ca...

The career tags system in WFRP3 is really good. Instead of having entries and exits, anyone can go from any career to any other career (although there are some baked in limitations, like some are starting career only, you have to complete the previous wizard career before going into the next one etc...

Happy to help!

There are still communities of 3e players around on Facebook and Discord if you use either of those. Both get a bit more activity than here.

It wasn't on my list of WFRP3 resources for some reason, but here you go: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EgC ... ue&sd=true

A great video here of Rick Priestley talking about the early editions of Warhammer Fantasy Battle:

Quite possibly

You're right, I completely forgot that FFG picked up the license and finished the last couple of 2e supplements before 3e. What I did remember was the downgrade from only hardback full colour to softback monochrome with costs and sales cited. Fair enough. I didn't know about the reason behind switc...

How did the licensing end for 2e and 3e? For 1e I remember that James Wallis gave it back and it wasn't revoked. I have no information to doubt this official version. I was just being a bit facetious as we never get an elf supplement. I'm not sure about 1e, but 2e just stopped making money. Not sur...

Excellent review Thanks for this really thorough and detailed review! The 5th edition Lizardmen book was my first ever Warhammer purchase (although I never got round to collecting an army), so Lustria has likewise always been special to me. I watched the changes over the editions of the wargame and...

Booooo!

But seriously, enjoy. It's a great campaign, although we found that it starts a bit slow.

There's a review here:

Not sure if Xathrodox86 is active on the forums, but if you reach out they might be able to help you.

Everything except the Marks and condition cards are unique as far as I can tell from a quick look at the complete component list. If you've already started the campaign, you won't need the background cards, as they're only used for character creation. And you can easily make do without the creature ...

Main Gauche has suggestions for "Fantastic Machines", but no rules as such - you have to collaborate with the GM to create them using the Crafting rules. And the assumption is that they work on Zweihander's equivalent of warpstone, so not sure how useful that would be for converting to WFR...

Thanks for the tip. I liked the Star Wars one more than I did WFRP3. Fantasy Flight couldn't help themselves with all the tokens and cards, and I felt like it distracted from the roleplaying. Ideally, I would steal ideas that work from every edition, so I will certainly check it out. Happy to help!...

Don't know if it's of any use to you, but some people are working on a version of WFRP to use with FFG's Genesys system (the spiritual successor to WFRP3): https://www.facebook.com/TheOldWorldGenesys/

The Voyage of Yin-Tuan was originally published in the WFB 5e Lizardmen army book, so it's actually been around even longer!

I discover (and am very surprised) from the introduction that "inflammable" means "not flammable" in English (at the exact opposite of its French and Latin meaning from which the word was borrowed.... A quite dangerous deceptive cognate for English speakers travelling in (some, ...

Back in March I sent some erratas for a supplement that wasn't on the online form. Heard back almost straight away from two different people. Did the same thing again a week or so later and never got a response, not even automated.

For once it's not GW making up silly names!
