Magic World and Warhammer Old World

OK, here's a brief rundown of the campaign setting and the characters involved.

The Old World of GW's Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is a pseudo-medieval/renaissance fantasy setting where we have analogues of Europe, among which are:

  • The Empire: Late Renaissance Germany
  • Bretonnia: High Middle Ages France
  • Tilea: Renaissance Italy
  • Estalia: Spain in the time of el Cid (and, for giggles, the Inquisition)

Other lands - Kislev, Lustria, Araby, Nihon and Cathay among others - are much further afield but could come into play.

The campaign starts in The Border Princes, a land of largely-lawless petty kingdoms, independent city-states, ruined towns and lots of Orcs and worse creatures. You can find out more here:

As a personal note, I'd suggest bookmarking https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/ because it's absolutely fascinating.

In the next post, I'll be adding a few details about the characters.
