• So Warcry's a bit like old-style D&D?

    I did enjoy passing the shop in Tottenham Court Road the other day, which is merely called 'WARHAMMER'. Out with all this confusing Games Workshop nonsense, eh? :)

  • I think so, possibly has a reference to Heroquest but that's before my time.

    The original version of Warcry has a lot of dynamic movement, you can climb, run and jump most things which encourages tall terrain.

    Catacombs as the name suggests takes place underground and the board is 2D - there's no vertical movement. There are solid walls and doors that can be opened as well as pits to push people in and bridges that can collapse.

    I like the freedom of the regular board but the odd dungeon crawl is fun. One of the guys I play with likened it to Dungeon Bowl which is coming back - https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/10/30/warhammer-day-2021-dungeon-bowl-is-back-and-its-bloodier-than-ever/

    I'm guessing the renaming was all part of the 'how can we copyright everything' movement that took place after they lost a court case...
