10/17/25 Imperial Guard Updates

Greetings fellow guardsmen! This announcement is just an update of the new units for the Imperial Guard and their various traitor variants. In addition, a few characters have been added.

10/2/25 Squat (League of Votann) Codex live!

We are excited to announce Codex number 15 dropped for public use! This Codex saw a lot of different approaches before we settled on the one we released. Their old stuff was too limited to be functional, not to mention hard to get. Their reboot was minimal as well of course, but we were workingContinue reading “10/2/25 Squat (League of Votann) Codex live!”

Exciting news everyone! The long awaited Imperial Knights Codex is live! Chaos will continue to undergo tests but is on its final stages as well.

4 Years, 4600 Man Hours, and 22,058 Downloads

These past few months have been very busy with life things. Redoing electrical wiring in the house has been a big one, disrupting what chances we have for the last play tests we need.

7/29/25 A New Non-Warhammer Site

Sorry its been so long since the last update! A few things are going on. First, a fine gentleman is helping me refine wording on every existing codex.

5/31/2025 All Ur Tanks R Belong To Us

Not for sure if they are Warp Spiders, Genestealers, or a combination, but the spiders have been coming into our home as if it were the apocalypse. To be fair, all of the rain we have been getting probably is for them. We have been putting lots of traps out, but some took refuge inContinue reading “5/31/2025 All Ur Tanks R Belong To Us”

4/1/25 2.0 Core Rules Improvement

Deciding to better approach Alternate 40k Rules, we have decided to make every datasheet cost 1 point. By doing so, we ensure the game will be highly stable. We are so confident that play testing is not needed. Nor is the point formula we based the entire game on. The next rule for the 2.0Continue reading “4/1/25 2.0 Core Rules Improvement”

3/6/25 Core Rulebook Revamp

I think we are just about settled into the house! That being said, the project is so far along that with waiting on play tests exclusively our weekly newsletter will probably be turning into an “as released” letter. Regardless, the core rulebook has been massively updated based on community feedback! More technical wording on someContinue reading “3/6/25 Core Rulebook Revamp”
