Is THIS the BEST skirmish game Games Workshop EVER made?!

[@scannerbarkly]

It's definitley the best game of theirs in the modern era, I feel. Just really nicely designed, has managed to avoid the unfortunate bloat that often claims games that have been around for a while, and really nice mini design.

[@OffMetaMusings]

It's the only GW that's won actual game design awards too as far as I remember

[@PeachyTips]

🤣👍 also great logo 😘👌 🫖

[@ItsQuiteCool]

Back in 1st edition, I used my AoS models, I bought years before for D&D. My favourite was a warband of Longbeards, and because of the slower movement of the dwarves, I gave the heroes tankards and used the horns from the warriors helmets as drinking horns on the rest of their belts 🙂 Not slow, just drunk!

[@colinb9884]

Got my wife into Warcry cause she didn't like big games. Good when we have a spare 45 mins and still a really fun game. Cheers for the video Peachy

[@shorelessskies]

The fact that there were only tiny rules changes between Warcry 1 and Warcry 2 demonstrates the elegance of design. @wargamesontoast did a recent video explaining the downsides of the quick attack resolution…but we don’t care 😂 Do you think the game lost a little of what made it unique when there were/are fewer bespoke teams?

[@PeachyTips]

I do like the purposefully designed warbands that come in their own boxes etc, as they do feel bespoke and considered.

[@AnominousRex]

Have you checked out any of the warcry books. The blood of the everchosen book was really fun and gives a nice taste of all the warbands.

It's here! I was wondering when this video would get made

[@Pork-Pie-Pete81]

Those Skirmish boards of yours are so fantastic. I can't remember where I first saw them, I think it was White Dwarf. They inspired me to make 3 cork board terrain boards for warcry. This included a combat arena, a swamp and and a crypt. Thank you as always for your inspiration.

Oh sweet! They sound cool, I need to make more boards tbf. Thanks again for the comment, and the inspiration to crack on with my cork boards lol

[@PeterBirchenough]

A couple of guys in my KT oriented gaming group have been getting into Warcry recently. One of the most striking things is hearing laughter coming from the Warcry tables. I look over to the Killteam players and its all frowns and deep concentration. Not knocking that kind of play or the folks who like it, but I want to be on the fun tables! This video is the last nudge I needed!

[@BigDaddyDirtHog]

Ive all but abandoned KT for WC for that exact reason. Its much more fun and random and way less brain load.

For what it is, I think warcry might be one of the best! I liked this video a lot

[@gozewstuffnthings5837]

Wargames SHOULD be simple to play for the majority of people, most of us don't have time to play often enough for complex games. The 40k competitive crowd are the only people in the GW ecosphere who want "complex" rules or think they have them - all they've had is a mess of a game, spammed with books and pointless rules. Want difficult? Play something like Art de la guirre.

[@general_crap]

Love warcry, I’d really like to see you show how you run a narrative campaign. It’s something I want to try but I’ve yet to give it ago.

[@mogwaiman6048]

Overall I think Warcry has better actual warbands than Kill Team. I also think it's a better game than Kill Team.

[@jameswhitmore3066]

Nice work I like the star wars idea. Never played aos style games. Old hammer age do you reckon you could make up some 40k cards? As a long time 40k player I just can't be bothered to learn/rebuy codex for 10th ed so we play with a modified 8th.

[@willschoonover8654]

WarCry is my second favorite GW game, after Middle Earth SBG. I hope it survives it's upcoming scheduled edition change next year without many changes, or they just drop it and replace it with something completely new so I can continue playing it as it exists now.

Untamed Beasts For the Win! Love this game, easily GW's best game. GIve it a go if you haven't, you'll love it.

[@joshcoles1255]

Na sorry Middle Earth SBG is the GOAT I don’t make the rules 😉 Really wish GW would support it more because the games so easy to pick up and there’s such a great community around the world for it. Also the hobbit era armies have some of the coolest stuff in the game despite the reception about those movies on the tabletop the hobbit era stuff doesn’t get enough attention when the game is advertised to a wider audience. I’d really recommended looking beyond just the classic Mordor, Rohan, Gondor etc stuff as there’s so many factions with their own distinctive flavour and style.

[@Phoney72]

I loved 1st edition Warcry. Hav'nt played 2nd yet but I still have my Ogre Icepelt hunter and his pack of frost sabres somewhere so I'll need to try it sometime.

[@dave7511]

Warcry is awesome! The first warbands, chaos warbands, are the best. They are still best for that game. The new warbands from last boxes are mmh ok. The rules are so easy, but so great. It's crazy how simple the cards are and gameplay is, but complex in strategy. What a big hit from games workshop.

[@Mordredt]

What about Middle Ear-… alright, I’ll let you off for now.

Sorry I don’t mean to spam comments but I love warcry so much 😂 Speaking to your story about “meta,” the last game I played was my Bear-eater Stormcast (“HAMILCAR!”) versus the Slintered Fang and my beefy stormgitz just got swarmed lol😅

[@MentoliptusBanko]

I agree with you, Warcry is the best GW game. Me and my 7 year old son can play it...having only the basic abilities. And we demo it on local conventions and casual players and kids can get the rules in 1 or 2 turns and they are hooked.

[@brainfog.3504]

Peachy , you got me onto warcry and yeah it's really good . Quick to set up and play , a good amount of tactical depth and setting up plays and getting a game in around 30mins is fantastic !

[@PeachyTips]

👆💯👆

[@TerrierHalo]

Do you hate Expedtion to the Barrier Peaks too? ;) The one thing I think Mordheim does better is the in between games, not worrying about the same amount of points hitting the table it can go a bit wilder but the actual rules on the table Warcry is such great fun. Writing rules that are simple to learn but then offers the depth in the choices you make is hard, but makes for such a great game. You can see it in the board game world too with Castles of Burgundy, quick to learn but still offering up so much depth in the game play.

[@justgoey6872]

Tbh this video was putting Warcry in a interesting light for me. Not that I had a bad opinion about it. It was simply totally out of my focus. I know it existed, but I never got in touch with it.

[@johanderyck6598]

I feel you on the cards. BUT, I’m still using them. I put in the effort to put stickers on them when warcry 1.5 came out to put all the (mostly points) changes on the same cards. Since Warcry 2.0 I’ve cut out the new ‘cards’ and put them on top of the original cards in their sleeves (and used free MagicTG cards from my LGC for the new ones that didn’t have a previous card. Honestly, it might not be ‘mint’ and a good looking collection anymore, but they sure feel ‘battle worn’ whenever I use them 😂. Warcry is my favorite GW game. For narrative. For competitive play I prefer Underworlds. Luckily, the Underworlds models work great to amazing in Warcry. These are the two games I’m sticking to ever since 2018 and I don’t feel like missing out on anything (yeahyeah, for painting fun I do buy a larger model from time to time).

[@RomanBromidge]

The warbands are still available! They've been popping back in and out of stock since the announcement of discontinuing all those Stormcast... Corvus Cabal and Unmade currently in stock on GW webstore, the rest 'temporarily out of stock'. So you can still pick up the super cool warbands. 😁

[@PeachyTips]

Awesome! Someone else mentioned that they’re still available, which is confusing

[@rywynrathel7297]

@@PeachyTips Yeah it looks like their deaths were greatly exhaggerated, presumably it was primarily about getting them out of the S2D roster rather than Warcry itself but who knows.

@@PeachyTips As far as I am aware they are not going to be around in AoS in a year, but still valid in Warcy. They latest metawatch and updates included them so it shows they are still getting some love, but whether they will keep being made is uncertain, but they have been coming back in to stock on the site. Was very happy to grab Corvus Cabal after trying to get it for 2 years after the warehouse sort GW did. Also if they did stop support for them I mean... if you're playing casual I am sure most people would be 100% cool with them being used still. Horns of Hashut however maaaay be because they are going in to the rumoured Chaos Dwarf army that is coming up. New maps and lore really make it seem like they are coming soon.

I absolutely love Warcry and love how well you can blast through a couple (or three) games in an evening - my only problem is that it shouldn't support so much of the AoS range as it leads to bad play experiences. A 'bespoke' warband from a box can easily get absolutely stomped by a 'compendium' warband composed of multiple units and heroes across different factions - this is fine for competitive tournament play, but really turns casual players off.

[@anthonycombrexelle]

This is the game that motivated me to get into miniature games. The beginner set box was fully loaded and very exciting to pick up. I must have played 40 games, I have around twenty warbands, I have played around twelve miniatures games since then and I regularly come back to Warcry because it's easy to memorize, with quite a bit of options for composing a warband and above all lots of scenarios, setting arrangements, adventures. It's very cool, my favorite GW game (I like Killteam but it's definitely clunkier in terms of wording)

[@theDackjanielz]

Well good news m8 - those older warbands are still available they're just currently online only now, i think the "removal" factor was just them taking them out of the main game AOS. BUT just to be safe if they do have any older warbands people want then i suggest you grab them incase they do vanish for whatever reason. Personally i love the spaceship concept i think its awesome and hilarious, the joke they made on warhammer weekly was wouldn't it be amazing if they came out with a new BFG game except in age of sigmar instead - We could call it Battletoad gothic. :D

Firstly love Warcry, really want to play more!! My theory on the disappearing war bands is so they don’t need to make rules for them for Sigmar 4. They seem to be all the war bands that aren’t part of a AoS faction. It’s not a perfect theory, but looking quickly at it, that’s how it seems.

[@PeachyTips]

Well the fact that your happy to proxy, there’s a bunch of card creator apps and the rules are free, you should have a great time without breaking the bank

[@Isabingus]

Question. I only know old hammer lore from my many hours of playing the total war wharhammer trilogy and watching the odd lore video, and the tiniest bits of AOS lore from battle reports. Won't the seraphon's spaceships be essentially giant temples, as I'm pretty sure they are the same ones that the few who escaped having morslieb dropped onto lustria used to do so? Great video again and look forward to finishing the rest of it in the morning... or in the afternoon now I guess.

[@PeachyTips]

I do agree on that for sure, as the old world ‘temples’ were ships I suppose, but felt more like stargate Go’Uld pyramid ships. The sketches and aesthetic of the Warcry one looks more like a spaceship rather than a temple, but like I said in the vid it’s just a personal preference as opposed to it being wrong etc.

[@Isabingus]

@@PeachyTips Ok makes sense. Was more just asking because I wasn't sure if I had been misinformed on what happen'd to the lizard men in the end times. Not trying to get you to change your mind just more of a clarification for myself. Anyway got some sleep now I can finish the rest of the video off!

[@Chorkly]

Warcry is great, because it doesn't confuse complexity and depth. Games really easy to pick up, but has nice and deep tactics. I wish other Games Workshop games took this lesson to heart (looking at you Kill Team), shoving in a bunch of unique rules and poorly worded/confusing rules doesn't immediately mean your games going to be better for it.

[@PMMagro]

For me obviously. Mainly because GW makes shitty rules and this is very rules light. You can play many factions and no one will be a living-God or eater of worlds normaly which is WAY more fun oin the table. very very nice stuff in Warcry and Underworlds :)

One of my favorite games from GW. These days I love most of the skirmish stuff like this, Kill Team, and especially Necromunda. Very cool. Plus Warcry is special to me as I am part of the ATC crew in America and we got the reveal of the game and it always has a special place in my heart.

[@ZiggyStardunk]

Love the video. This has probably been talked about but if you use a 'wait', that is an action. if you move and then wait, that effectively ends the turn, the only way to save an action is to use wait as your 1st action. Then you can activate again later with one action or react.

[@PeachyTips]

That’s an excellent tip!

[@Nosferatuklown]

Warcry has always looked awesome - I always thought that they made such nice models better than some of the big box releases for the AOS. I'm wondering if this new Spearhead game mode GW has made is an ending for the Warcry game. I saw another GW box game that had amazing models yesterday that I was unaware of....can't recall the name *please hold* ....Underworlds! That's it (thank you Google) - man those models look so fantastic aswell; but I have no clue how this differs from Warcry.

[@PeachyTips]

Underworlds is a very different system to a lot of GW games, a great bridge from card games to miniatures, competitive and well balanced….at least I’m told lol. Regardless all the minis can be used in Warcry as there’s a ton of official and unofficial rules using the warbands from underworlds. Bladeborn I believe they’re referred to in the 2019 Tome of champions book

[@theandf]

Hey Peachy, I think what you describe at the beginning of the video is one of the main problems with GW. I think we can all agree they put out some incredible games (not the mainstream ones though... 40K in my opinion is ruleswise one of the worst current tabletop wargames), but the need for the "spokespeople" to be constantly excited about the latest thing is a huge downside. Anyone who isn't new to the hobby will fast get wise to this tactic. It means you cannot ever be sure whatever game you're enthusiastic about won't get abandoned or at least de-prioritized. And the fake hyper-excitement gets old fast. In other words: it's great for us hobbyists that people like you can go independent and remain enthusiastic about whatever you choose, as opposed to what Marketing tells you :) In other news, I just bought my first Warcry band. Why? Because I liked the look of the models, I don't care if they are competitive or not.

[@theandf]

Though I wonder if it was truly just Marketing though. I recently watched an interview with Priestley and the author of Necromunda, and they claim it was always the intention in the Olden Days to put out a game and immediately "abandon" it, while the pressure from Marketing was what instead wanted to turn everything into a "supported series". So the authors actually wanted Necromunda, etc, to be a once and done deal. It kinda contradicts my comment above. Any "insider" thoughts on this?

[@PeachyTips]

In my time at GW and going independent, it’s very evident that the customers aren’t daft and will easily see past these dumb initiatives that business create to sell products. So bring genuine and excited about a product you actually like is the best way to get folks excited about it, zero falseness just pure enthusiasm. In regards to the Necromunda question and the get it done and abandon the product theory is a new one to me, but then I wouldn’t be surprised after seeing the oddities behind the scenes lol

@@PeachyTipsthank you so much! Love your channel. It fits my level of hobby vs life

Honestly I think you would love turnip28 because it's medieval/napoleonic where people worship root vegetables and follow cowardly yet charismatic snobs into a hilarious battle where everyone is just as terrible of a soldier.

Cheer bud, I’m already a firm fan of turnip28, and in a couple of weeks we will be chatting to Max it’s creator on our podcast JUGGZ 😍

Wooo!

Thanks for the deep dive. I have the core rulebook, but I could never get my gaming group to give it a go.

Go has very simple rules....

What worries me for the future of Warcry is that while all other products have gotten bigger and bigger boxes, Warcry has been getting them smaller. Kind of strange, so I would not be surprised if GW decided to just drop it. I hope they keep releasing new stuff for it because I love the game. In any case, we have enough to keep it running even if the game stop getting releases.

[@PeachyTips]

Agreed! I’ve had my concerns too, Mordhiem is still greatly loved and had some support in its day (mostly town cryer articles) so if Warcry does go, it’s definitely had a ton of support upto now.

@@PeachyTips Also, noticed you didn't talk about Monsters and Mercenaries. It's my favorite book of them all. Fighting monsters to capture them and use them in battle? Count me in!

Warcry is really a fun and innovative ruleset.
