Two Tunnels Ablaze

May 2023·pp. 126–129

THE SHORT VERSION

Rob Crouchley follows the Gorvos twins defending Two Tunnels after the Great Darkness lets cultists surge through the underhive. A ring of burning gunk protects their factorum and provides the setting for the studio’s second campaign cycle. Van Saar face the Anathema Helot cult in a costly defeat: even the winners struggle to afford treatment, while Tribune reports record similarly bitter results elsewhere.

Worlds of Warhammer: Online Narrative Campaigns

Leila Craven draws on organising a campaign for more than three hundred players to explain long-distance shared storytelling. Teams, capped submissions and manageable rounds let games, painting, fiction and art contribute without an early runaway winner. A common setting and broad motives create coherence, while narrative updates acknowledge army actions without taking control of other players’ characters. Plot-hook tables offer starting conflicts for either setting.

Rules of Engagement: Narrative Play

Jimbo Warth uses his Realms at War event experience to describe narrative play as shared army storytelling. Themed collections, roster progression and interactive terrain support that aim, but a conversation about expectations and power level matters just as much. He encourages naming a general, considering leadership succession and using agreed custom rules where they strengthen the story and both co-players’ enjoyment.

Meat and Murder: Blood on the Charrwind Coast

A two-player campaign follows the Bloodgullet advance through three locations before a possible final stand at Heinstorm’s Pass. The Khainite defender secretly assigns forces of different sizes, while the ogor attacker chooses which territory and reward to contest. Region rules intensify charging and make terrain dangerous, with successive victories granting thematic bonuses and optional Path to Glory renown and artefacts.
