Glory Points: Mollog’s Mob

February 2019·pp. 68–71

THE SHORT VERSION

Dave Sanders builds a strategy around keeping Mollog alive and extracting more useful actions from the warband’s strongest fighter. Defensive upgrades, healing, movement tricks and extra attacks make the troggoth difficult to contain, but the article also explains how an inspired Bat Squig and the other smaller creatures can support him or force the opponent to respond elsewhere.

The Die Is Cast

Jervis Johnson explains his favourite games through the decisions and social experiences they create. Blood Bowl’s precise spaces and calculated risks, Blackstone Fortress’s character stories, Underworlds’ cards and Kill Team’s developing fighters illustrate different ways to combine uncertainty with agency; his wider point is that enjoyable play depends on the agreement between the people at the table.

The Mirrored City

Phil Moss and John Michelbach discuss the cold, sharp and oppressive imagery used to establish Shadespire. Symmetry, masks and shadeglass express the vanished Katophranes’ unsettling legacy, while Nightvault’s exposed faces and the Briar Queen’s aggression make the horror less restrained; even Stormcast gold is subdued by the city’s pervasive jade light.

The Godsworn Hunt

Sam Pearson paints the Darkoath warband after enjoying its playtesting, putting most of his effort into the exposed skin. Warm flesh is shaded with both a reddish wash and dark brown before progressively lighter highlights restore the prominent muscles and faces, giving the small group a consistent finish without losing the individuality of its members.
