[@Schalazarro]

I think you missed to mention beastman warband. Oh and I am excites as you are about those creations and your participation in the tournament :)

[@williamford3605]

Thanks for putting together another wonderful video. I know they're hard work!

[@TheSchokomac]

@@Schalazarro the beastmen are non of the original warbands. it got introduced later to the game by the "town cryer" among many more like orks, dwarves, the carnival of chaos, gladiators, questing bretonian knights and probably more.

[@Schalazarro]

@@TheSchokomac don't think so. I remember them from original book. Later on they were merged in supplement Empire in Flames or similar title.

[@tuomaspirinen8018]

It has been over 20 years since I wrote Mordheim (with help from my friends and peers, Alessio, Rick and Gav), and descended into darkness to create the atmosphere with the legendary John Blanche and the all-star art team from Karl Kopinski to John Wigley and Dave Gallagher. To see how the game still inspires people this much after all this time is the reason why I became a game designer. This is what I wanted to see -the same excitement D&D red box and other classic fantasy games gave me when I was a youngling. Awesome video!

[@christomsharpe]

I loved it when I was a teenager and now after 15+ years away from miniature gaming I have returned to the game and I love it all over again! Thanks Tuomas et al.!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Thank you Tuomas! You guys certainly made a classic

[@DukeDanseMacambre]

Still working in new Warbands 20 years later. You made a timeless winner mate.

[@fkins7296]

All hail to ye editor, Mordheim still lives on.

[@tomekhekin914]

I spend so much time and money to make my perfect Mordheim table and Warband that sometime I don't know if I should thank you for making an inspirieing game and hobby or hate you for for that. All in all thank you for making this incredible setting.

As a Spaniard, I find the naming of your adventurers totally hilarious. Chorizo and Manovacía made me laugh hard. Waiting to see more updates!

[@georgepurdy7823]

Just the thumbnail alone makes me want to finally finish my Beastmen & sell a kidney for a Sigmarite empire army. “To me; Sons of Sigmar! FOR THE EMPIRE!!!”

[@selrahcmoonandstar]

One of the best things about Mordheim, aside from the tremendous crafting potential, was how you didn't need to sell any major organs/extremities to have a fine warband. The smaller skirmish size was a big part of what made Mordheim my favorite tabletop game

[@johnoneill3654]

Thanks for the quote. It reminded me to go back and watch the Mark of Chaos cinematics again 👍

[@georgepurdy7823]

@@johnoneill3654 they are so bad ass for their time. And you bet your behind; when I play saltzpire in Vermintide I say that quote at least once

[@donnturner]

Mordheim is probably one of the best skirmish settings yet. There is a reason it is still around after so long. Love the table rotating tiles idea.

[@KnarbMakes]

Hell yeah! Look forward to seeing you build that board!

[@dcaffran]

Ok, ok. So, the painting and the scenery planning, the boat... is great, as always. Now, let me tell you, as a Spaniard myself, your naming of the characters is 10/10 360 no-scope. Way way above the half-assed archetypical reference in American media that usually reveals the writer doesn't know what they are doing. Bra-fucking-vo, amigo. ¡GRACIAS! 🤯🤯🥳🥳

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Very kind comment, thank you! Glad you liked them :)

[@ZodiusXx]

I really appreciate this level of thought and detail for the warband. I do the same with my guys and it's such a great experience. I wish I could get a group of 5 really dedicated people to go as in-depth, and have some truly narrative, multi-game insirng tales.

[@baNa123]

I'm totally in love with Mordheim, takes me back in time when me and my best friend bought the first white dwarf when those awesome dark dioramas were displayed and I was completely fascinated from all the stories that could become. (Still have it somewhere I think..) We built many sceneries, some of them never completed, but now, 20 years later, this video makes me feel that I want finish that board, just to stay there and look back in time. Thanks for what you do and create for this awesome community, and for how you storytell

[@alvaroruiz9831]

Oh boy, this one has hit me. It´s really heartwarming to see someone taking so much interest in Spain´s history and culture, and taking it to Mordheim, no less!! Thankyou so much, mate. I really apreciate it. Gonzalo, Fenán, Diego, Francisco Manovacía (so great)... and then we get to Chorizo, oh yes! I love that guy. I hope to see them in action soon. Un saludo from Estalia.

[@alejandrator1]

I'm so glad that Estalia is getting some love on this channel. Even though I prefer Bretonnia, being Spanish myself, seeing Estalian models is quite joyous.

[@mina7572]

At 5:15 when the music came on I thought you were going to have The Metatron on as a surprise guest lol

[@midnightseraph2526]

As someone fairly new to the hobby (around 2018 I believe) seeing stuff like this saddens me that I missed out on so much, but makes me want to create something like this for my play group! My focus has definitely been on 40k, but once I learned of necromunda I dove down that rabbit hole. The more I learn of the old world and mordheim I really want to recreate the world and try to get my friends to join me. And between scratch built stuff, 3d printers, and other miniature companies I may actually be able to do just that

[@Dohlenblick]

The rotating quarter-type map is such a cool concept, you could even build a bridge segment to connect two piers when they are set to face each other.

[@warrenarmstrong2154]

You’re taking on a lot of huge projects at the moment. Careful not to get burned out, especially with the amount of detail you put into everything.

[@FragornIrik]

Miniature painting: Check Cool terrain: Check Warhammer lore: Check Warband background: Check Nostalgia: Double check! Great video!

[@Weez-2_The-Beez]

When I first found out about Mordheim I was absolutely enthralled by the Skaven! Partially because it was my first glimpse into a world, changing the ways of an awkward nerdy kid turned extremely nerdy adult, who at the time (and still do) loved books which featured animals with human like appearances. The Rats of NIMH and the Redwall series are still some of my most adored books! Although since having played Mordheim as a nerdy kid to a (somewhat) fully grown adult I’ve been accustomed to the plights of Men and Chaos so my other Warbands included are the Witch Hunters, Possessed, Beastmen and my ALL TIME FAVORITE…. Orcs and da stunty gobbos 🎃

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

I loved Redwall as a kid! The villains were very memorable. I still remember one rat with a poisoned blade so sharp in cut through a Badgers plate armour like butter. Cluny the Scourge? Or was that a different one? Not sure. I will read them to my son in a few years :)

[@Weez-2_The-Beez]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Ohf that’s a tricky question.. I don’t remember which villain had a poisoned sword..?.. Cluney had a poisoned tail barb if memory serves me correctly, it’s been well over 20+ years since the last time I’ve read the Redwall series.. I suppose it’s time to pull out the series from my storage unit and “paw” through them again.. If I remember which character you’re talking about I’ll pop back on here and let you know who it was cuz looking online is for cheaters lol

[@graefx]

I have simple tastes. I see Old World and I click. I'm going to have to hunt down that wizard Nicodemus mini

[@vagabondprime1691]

I miss Mordheim so much! Such a great game. I'm really tempted to follow your lead and get a table back together! Nice work on the warband!

[@tuskarthetauren]

If you miss it why don't you play it? Playing "old" games is fun and as we see from Eric's video, you can always give them a "new" twist.

[@C0m3TSw1tch]

Love the Warband and the city. I have been thinking of getting into Mordheim and I think I read once the rules are available online. Will have to track them down and see how I can use my Brettonions, and build my own board. Can't wait to see the finished table.

[@DarkAgesWorkshop]

Awesome Eric. I too received the invitational via letter (I should have been the "guest from Italy") but unfortunately I'm sad to say I can't come this November and I've been heartbroken for this, for weeks. I'll spy on you people though via video call!

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Maybe another event in the future! Ill be sure to take lots of pictures though

[@markfriesen1435]

I actually have that youngster with the dagger 09:00 in my Frostgrave warband! Another inspiring video Eric, thanks! BTW... I think it's pronounced Foke-sal, not fore-castle

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

I think you’re right! I have spent very little time around sailors

[@markfriesen1435]

@@EricsHobbyWorkshop Neither have I, but I have been watching the epic re-build of Tally Ho on KZbin and have picked up a few things

Video is incredible and as Spanish I am really happy to see this Estalia BAND! Thanks, Eric!

[@LeeGutsy]

Your passion for the hobby, the game and the setting are incredibly inspiring. I think I should finish my Frostgrave table

All the old footage and images were great. Looking forward to seeing the board come together.

[@wallung1876]

Im a 40k player since like almost 30 years (on/off) and started crafting for my D&D Group in 2017... Never played Mordheim (or WH Fantasy) but espacially your MH-buildings made me want to craft and play Mordheim so hard!

[@lonestarminis]

I'm currently painting the rest of my DoW army as we speak and I can't thank you enough for shedding light on this glorious sub-sect of this wonderful hobby!!

[@JakeDogg-RIP]

Mordheim MORDHEIM! ❤🎉

[@williamford3605]

Awesome warband mate. I think you're correct in that it will contrast very well with the other warbands. Very excited to see your table in the future - looks very promising and inspiring!

[@The_Modeling_Underdog]

That warband is up there with Alatriste. You just need some box fomations and that's it. El Tercio de Mordheim. Also, Spanish people are very given to nickname somebody for whatever reason, so making the cook "Chorizo" is one of the most Spanish things you'll ever get. Excellent video, mate.

[@Arokel]

The exclusion of Dawi from this event will be going in the Book!

[@andresperedo1275]

Being Spanish it makes me so happy to see some Estalia from not Spanish people (you can imagine that Estalia is a popular theme there)

[@pabonismygod]

Francisco Mano Vacía KILLED me. Incredible work.

[@Hobbyrepubliken]

Playing the fan-supported Mordheim was what brought me back to the hobby 7 years ago

[@YouCaughtCzars]

Your Estalians look fantastic! I'm currently building a pirate Skaven army that will be showing up to games on a ship and bases using a mixture of sand and epoxy resin with cyan technical paint to give it a water effect. It's so much fun when people give lots of character to their models.

[@cesarling]

I love how that one mini just lost his crossbow and how you play it off

[@toadpope2522]

This is sick buddy. You are a really talented artist. Your pieces always come together with a detailed authenticity that gets me excited. Hope the tournament went well! Always stoked for some mordheim content.

[@Miscast]

The future is bright...uhh dark, I can't wait for so the table and tournament, GOOD LUCK!

[@pabloalonsoflores]

There is no better nickname for an Estalian halfling than "Chorizo". It's just perfect!

[@gnollman]

Mordheim was one game I always kinda wanted to play but didn't make much splash in my town, everyone was EPIC and 40K instead. Love seeing your plans for the table, gonna be some great vids!

[@stephenhupfer]

Mike McVeys diorama was / has been on display in the Warhammer World Museum. It was truly one of the highlights of my trip when I saw it in person. If you have not had a chance to witness some of the dioramas of old in person, you really should try and make the journey !

[@euansmith3699]

The mighty "Chorizo" looks like the lovely Denholm Elliot; use of the punny names for Mordheim is great, just like with Blood Bowl. The unarmed character is a cool idea; though, I guess he could have been used as a Battle Wizard. That list of Cask names could work well for a Halfling or Dwarf Warband. I'm looking forward to more Mordheim videos; especially the crossover with your Titan Build.

[@PacManDreaming]

Lots of nostalgia in this video. I started playing Warhammer Fantasy in '89. Started with Blood Bowl earlier, that year.

[@Novum_YT]

Damn man it's a conflicting time to be a Carla Esparza fan

[@ellesse3862]

Ooh.. a mysterious letter and a summons, remember rations and a healing savle and extra breeches, I hear Mordheim is a dangerous place .. you may need that lucky finger bone of the Unknown Saint too. Look forward to hearing about your adventure at the Tournament and seeing you return to Mordheim on your channel. I'm already excited to see your table tiles build and where that leads.

[@BlaueCookieFan]

That Gonzalo looks very much like he is wearing heavy armour, but hey. Excellent warband you have there, well done. Love to see Mordheim is still very much alive after such a long time.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Yeah, i paid for heavy armor for him i think

[@puerquitoDeSatanas]

DAM! The names are pure gold! "Mano vacía" sounds like such a compelling character, love it!

[@Tom_paint_n_build]

This is so awesome! Love to see more mordheim stuff especially regarding the invitational… Really looking forward to meeting u there to play some games in the damned city! All the best Tom

[@cameronlomax744]

Eric, I love this video. I love your plan to put all those awesome Mordheim buildings into a big, modular table. I WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW. I know it’s going to take time to get to, you have such a great approach to your channel, but I can’t wait. Those buildings really are amazing, and totally deserve a big board home. I especially like the circular road part of the sketch. Even though it means you can only rotate on two sides, it still gives plenty of modularity…… but more importantly it looks like it will give Any setup a really fun layout for the actual gaming use. Good work as usual. Your videos are really accessible, in that I always find them a nice easy watch. Keep it up!

[@alvaromarde]

It's amazing seeing other hobbyists being in love with estalians, a pretty obscure "faction" among Old World fans. Good work!

[@perrygrosshans8537]

Damn my man! Excellent again. I gotta go back and rewatch some of those earlier videos for those choice buildings. Some of my friends and I are just starting to plan a Mordheim campaign, and I'm stoked! I need to carve out some time to build some terrain myself!

[@traviscoffey8708]

also, love your vids. Your scratchbuilding necromunda is what has started me on this path after all!

[@Daydam]

Loved Francisco Manovacía's backstory. And as someone whose native language is Spanish, I looove all of the Spanish inspiration for those characters! Also, can't wait to see more about the dedicated Mordheim table! The idea for the modular board is super cool.

[@SadPinkDino]

another amazing video Eric! I love your awesome Warband, they look fantastic, and have some top their lore! Now all I need is to see the boat done, :3. Good luck, and Ill be awaiting your next awesome video.

"Who are the estalians?" Immediately caused me to start hearing Paranoid by Black Sabbath.

[@nightfire734]

Always love a Mordheim video, and now is the season. I've never played, but I love building warbands and kitbashing guys. I was going through my bin for guys to use and I found these Estalian handgunners. I used them for a warband, but never new they were Citadel miniatures. I always thought they were some Essex historical miniatures or something. Crazy cool realization to me.

[@nuckythompson8041]

Man you really took my for a trip down memory lane. Man I would totally jump in on a campaign if one showed up back in the nyc area. What a game

[@markt.3685]

Looks like a head start on the Mordhiem boards with all that terrain, and a fine Estalian warband too, congrats!😎👍

[@smoessmee]

Great to see a Mordheim gang :) I love the Estalian look, I'm using some Montrose Irish (ragged troops with no armour and a few helmets) as a Nordlander company. They're more my take on the look for them as I think of them as less flamboyant than the other parts of the Empire and these guys are a band that have come together in the wastelands between the armies.

Ah yes...the Dogs of War. I really like Ruglud's armoured orcs - the “spike-can commandos.” The originals had some really unique, quirky miniatures. I think I still have 20 or 30 poorly painted ones in a box somewhere in the workshop outside. Thinking about digging them out and refreshing them a bit...

[@Saigemeister]
