The Siege of Everquake City

June 2023·pp. 24–25

THE SHORT VERSION

Two to six players divide into attacking and defending teams, each with a warlord who resolves shared decisions. The defenders construct a continuous fortress, divide their troops between garrison and delayed relief, and hold a gatehouse objective and a deeper strongpoint. Rules give walls and gates destructible profiles, adapt garrisons and monstrous demolition, and make the result depend on both captured objectives and the proportion of fortifications ruined.

Readers describe how painting supports their wellbeing, returning after long breaks, and building collections with friends. Donal Bisanzio recounts secretly preparing two Heresy armies before surprising Alberto Demarchi with a Nottingham gaming trip; Yvan Tavares explains his softly blended Master Lazarus. The replies also cover the editorial team’s Sylvaneth collection and how the Blood Angels Legion was organised before the Heresy.

Gnarlroot Colours

Matt Hutson answers a reader’s question about his Gnarlroot Sylvaneth by explaining the warm bark and green growth recipes. Mournfang Brown and Agrax Earthshade establish the wood, followed by Bugman’s Glow drybrushing and opaque highlights; Straken Green, Athonian Camoshade and progressively paler highlights supply the contrasting foliage.

All-consuming Earth

Ka-rokk’s Waaagh! emerges from the dangerous Skavenskrol realmgate and reaches Everquake City much sooner than its defenders expect. The city’s industry depends on mysterious golden pylons restraining a tectonic realmgate, while Lord-Imperatant Kamahana’s attempt to bring relief ends in a mutually fatal naval duel with the ogor pirate Targug. Orruks, gargants and ogors batter the walls as the citizens prepare a desperate defence.
