The Old World Schism: What You Need To Know | Warhammer the Old World | Square Based Show
Is the great Warhammer Schism finally coming to an end? For years, the divide between the Main Studio (AoS/40k) and the Specialist Design Studio (Old World/Heresy) banished half our favorite factions to "Legacy" status. But with Horus Heresy suddenly announcing official cross-compatibility with 40k Custodes AND Age of Sigmar Daemons, the wall seems to be coming down! We speculate on what this means for the upcoming Arcane Journals, the "Gargantuan Treeman," the Barrow Legion, and whether we will finally see AoS models officially supported in the Old World. 0:00 - Intro & The New Tomb Kings Reveal 2:41 - Are Skeleton Horses Actually Cool? 5:31 - The Detail on the New Tomb Guard Kits 10:40 - Val's $1,500 Gaming Mat Tariff Nightmare 14:35 - Rob's Insane Doubles Tournament Rules 20:34 - Event Talk: 1-Day vs 2-Day Tournaments 26:03 - What is "The Schism" in Games Workshop? 33:45 - Is The Schism Finally Ending? 41:44 - Horus Heresy & Age of Sigmar Cross-Compatibility 48:09 - Barrow Legions, Treemen & The Future of Legacy Armies 54:09 - Outro & SBOT Tickets MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: ► *Links to all current Renegade Drafts* https://docs.google.com/document/d/16kAE-p_CWbsH0XatDPuRao6TngSw-KSweUnJa81kOXE/edit?usp=sharing ► *Rob's Old World EVENTS in Nottingham!* https://tsnarena.com/events/category/the-old-world/ ► *Check out Rob's Event Recaps here!* https://thehonestwargamer.com/ ► Support us on *PATREON* and join us on Discord: https://www.patreon.com/Squarebased *OLD WORLD RESOURCES* ► *Square Based Comp AND Tournament Packs* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world/square-based-comp/ ► *The Square Based FAQ:* https://www.squarebased.com/faqs ► *The Renegade Legacy Pack:* https://www.squarebased.com/ ► *Our 500pt Foray Pack:* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world-500-point-foray/ ► *Old World Army Builder:* https://old-world-builder.com/ ► *Old World Rules Wiki:* https://tow.whfb.app/ ► *Old World Rankings (Past and Upcoming Old World Events:* https://oldworldrankings.com/ *MERCH* https://thehonestwargamer.com/product-category/square-based/ Youtube Music Playlist for Audio Only: https://tinyurl.com/SB-YouTube-Music-Playlist Podcast on all other Platforms: https://squarebasedpodcast.podbean.com/ #squarebased #warhammertheoldworld #warhammerfantasy

The ULTIMATE faction review | Warhammer the Old World | Square Based Show
Rob and Val are back in action, and today we are breaking down the Pros and Cons of EVERY single army in the game! Looking for the best army for starting Warhammer: The Old World, or wondering how your favorite Core and Legacy factions stack up? Whether you're deciding between shiny new plastics for Grand Cathay or throwing down with Renegade armies like Skaven and Vampire Counts, this is the ultimate tabletop wargaming faction guide for you. If you are looking to start a brand new army in 2026, trying to figure out which faction fits your tabletop playstyle, or you just want to listen to Val ruthlessly dunk on the Empire and Dwarfs for three hours, this is the episode for you. We are weighing all Core and Legacy (Renegade) factions looking at: The Models & Hobby Threshold: How hard is it to actually get this army painted and on the tabletop? Are the sculpts elite, or are you going to be painting a hundred tired, shoeless state troops? Phase Effectiveness: Does the army actually play the game across the Movement, Magic, Shooting, and Combat phases, or are you just skipping half your turn? Stability & Psychology: How well does the army handle panic and terror? The "Hero Hammer" Dependency: Can your faction function without a Lord on a Dragon hard-carrying your entire list? Core Tax & Armies of Infamy: Are you forced into bringing bad units, and do you actually have fun, thematic lists to build around? CHAPTERS 0:00 - Intro & Val's Return 3:25 - Warriors of Chaos 30:54 - Lizardmen 52:40 - Grand Cathay 1:08:01 - Ogre Kingdoms 1:21:28 - Empire of Man 1:40:57 - Wood Elf Realms 1:54:34 - Dwarfen Mountain Holds 2:11:30 - Orc & Goblin Tribes 2:30:08 - Tomb Kings of Khemri 2:44:00 - Dark Elves 2:51:21 - Chaos Dwarfs 3:00:36 - High Elf Realms 3:10:16 - Daemons of Chaos 3:18:52 - Kingdom of Bretonnia 3:27:41 - Skaven 3:35:35 - Beastmen Brayherds 3:43:00 - Vampire Counts 3:50:18 - Final Thoughts & Outro ► *Join us at the Square Based Open Toronto October 24 and 25! * https://oldworldrankings.com/ca/tournaments/square-based-open-toronto-2026-sbc MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: ► *Links to all current Renegade Drafts* https://docs.google.com/document/d/16kAE-p_CWbsH0XatDPuRao6TngSw-KSweUnJa81kOXE/edit?usp=sharing ► *Rob's Old World EVENTS in Nottingham!* https://tsnarena.com/events/category/the-old-world/ ► *Check out Rob's Event Recaps here!* https://thehonestwargamer.com/ ► Support us on *PATREON* and join us on Discord: https://www.patreon.com/Squarebased *OLD WORLD RESOURCES* ► *Square Based Comp AND Tournament Packs* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world/square-based-comp/ ► *The Square Based FAQ:* https://www.squarebased.com/faqs ► *The Renegade Legacy Pack:* https://www.squarebased.com/ ► *Our 500pt Foray Pack:* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world-500-point-foray/ ► *Old World Army Builder:* https://old-world-builder.com/ ► *Old World Rules Wiki:* https://tow.whfb.app/ ► *Old World Rankings (Past and Upcoming Old World Events:* https://oldworldrankings.com/ *MERCH* https://thehonestwargamer.com/product-category/square-based/ Youtube Music Playlist for Audio Only: https://tinyurl.com/SB-YouTube-Music-Playlist Podcast on all other Platforms: https://squarebasedpodcast.podbean.com/ #squarebased #warhammertheoldworld #warhammerfantasy

The March of Chaos Arcane Journal Review | Warhammer the Old World | Square Based Show
Rob and Val are braving the Storms of Magic to review the brand new Arcane Journal: The March of Chaos for Warhammer: The Old World! The Ruinous Powers are uniting in the Shard Lands, and we are breaking down absolutely everything this packed supplement brings to the tabletop. Tune in to learn about the new modes of play for Magic with Channeling Dice, Arcane Magic, and SORCEROUS RUSES (and a much scarier miscast table). After that we examine the return of the Hordes of Chaos Grand Army and have a look at the new units you can field with it. Finally, we have a look at the massive new list of common magic items that allow you to bring a little bit of wacky chaos energy to any army in Old World. ► *Join us at the Square Based Open Toronto October 24 and 25! * https://oldworldrankings.com/ca/tournaments/square-based-open-toronto-2026-sbc Chapters: TBD MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: ► *Links to all current Renegade Drafts* https://docs.google.com/document/d/16kAE-p_CWbsH0XatDPuRao6TngSw-KSweUnJa81kOXE/edit?usp=sharing ► *Rob's Old World EVENTS in Nottingham!* https://tsnarena.com/events/category/the-old-world/ ► *Check out Rob's Event Recaps here!* https://thehonestwargamer.com/ ► Support us on *PATREON* and join us on Discord: https://www.patreon.com/Squarebased *OLD WORLD RESOURCES* ► *Square Based Comp AND Tournament Packs* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world/square-based-comp/ ► *The Square Based FAQ:* https://www.squarebased.com/faqs ► *The Renegade Legacy Pack:* https://www.squarebased.com/ ► *Our 500pt Foray Pack:* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world-500-point-foray/ ► *Old World Army Builder:* https://old-world-builder.com/ ► *Old World Rules Wiki:* https://tow.whfb.app/ ► *Old World Rankings (Past and Upcoming Old World Events:* https://oldworldrankings.com/ *MERCH* https://thehonestwargamer.com/product-category/square-based/ Youtube Music Playlist for Audio Only: https://tinyurl.com/SB-YouTube-Music-Playlist Podcast on all other Platforms: https://squarebasedpodcast.podbean.com/ #squarebased #warhammertheoldworld #warhammerfantasy
