  Introduction The Thricefold Discord are a trio of Slaaneshi Daemons, cursed to wander the Underworlds as punishment for their relentless bickering. Tasked with harvesting souls, they cannot return to their master until they have claimed six hundred and sixty-six—an ordeal meant to teach them the cooperation they so sorely lack. Leading the trio is Vexmor, the Excessively Indolent [1], accompanied by Vashtiss, the Coiled [2], and Lascivyr, the Blessed Blade [3]. Bound by fate and rivalry, they scheme and squabble even as they carry out their decadent duty, each seeking to outshine the others in the eyes of their dark patron. Fighter Characteristics The leader of the Thricefold Discord is the Vexmor, the Indolent. He has a Move of 3, a Save of 1 Block, 5 Health, and a Bounty of 3. His single melee attack has a Range of 2, hits on 1 Hammers, and deals 2 damage. Upon inspiration, his attack improves to 2 Hammer. Additionally, Vexmor makes use of the Indolent warscroll ability (see be...

  The Wielder of the Blade [1], armed with the necromantic blade Terminus, leads the ghostly procession of the Headman’s Curse as they enter the fiery mines of Embergard. Terminus, an ancient weapon infused with dark magic, radiates an aura of death, its edge honed not just to sever flesh but to cleave the very souls of the condemned. The Bearer of the Block [2] follows closely, his spectral arms hauling a phantom chopping block, ready to receive the heads of those who’ve escaped death’s rightful claim. The Scriptor of the Sentence [3] moves with solemn purpose, inscribing the names of the doomed in ghostly ink to seal their fate by Nagash’s command, while the Sharpener of the Blade [4] trails behind, sharpening Terminus with each pass of his ghostly whetstone, amplifying the blade’s deadly chill. Together, they descend into the Emberstone-lit caverns, a harbinger of cold and final justice, even in the fiery heart of Aqshy. The Wielder’s gaze is unyielding, for with each swing of T...

Happy 2025 everybody! It has been a few months since I last sat down to write about what I have been up to in my hobby. Life has been incredibly busy, mainly with work but also with family commitments, leaving little time for much else. Painting I haven't had much time — or inclination — to pick up my paintbrush. One reason is that the area where I paint in my house tends to get quite cold during the winter months, which doesn't make for a particularly inviting workspace. On top of that, by the time I've been free to paint, there's often no daylight left — and I definitely prefer painting with natural light. However, here in the UK, the light has been gradually returning, and with that, I've found myself drawn back to my painting desk. I have several Underworlds warbands waiting for attention, so I decided to start with the Plaguebearers of Nurgle from the Grandfather Gardeners set. My Gardeners I have a large army of Plaguebearers that I painted when Age of Sigmar ...

Introduction On Sunday the 23rd of February, I set off for the Victory Clash in Havant, a small town near Portsmouth in the South of England. This was to be a small local Rivals tournament that my friend Harry (aka Slippy) had told me about. Preparation Up until now, in second edition, I have been playing the Emberwatch combined with Blazing Assault and Reckless Fury , but I have been wanting to try something new. For this tournament, I decided to use Cyreni's Razors with Countdown to Cataclysm  (C2C), both a deck and warband I had not really considered before. In the first edition, I played primarily with Lady Harrow's Mournflight, a quick, hard hitting but fragile warband. I like this style of play and have been looking for a warband that works in a similar way. My Razors In the week before the tournament, I went to my local club, in Redhill, to try-out/practise with the Razors. I played two games.  The first was against the Gorechosen of Dromm with Reckless Fury. I ultima...
