Perhaps we could spread some Chaos in the Old World?
« on: August 24, 2012, 08:40:28 PM »
Putting out feelers for this.

Chaos in the Old World a Warhammer Fantasy game that is, ostensibly, a cooperative game in which 4-5 players take on the roles of the gods of Chaos and do their best to ruin the everloving shit out of the Old World, while the Old World does its best to survive and persevere. Of course, the trick is that the gods of Chaos don't particularly like each other either and are, in the end, each in it for themselves.

That is to say, there is only one winner.

So, while it is fully possible for the Old World to successfully defend itself and beat back the threat of Chaos, what this game is really about is the Gods of Chaos striving against each to corrupt, dominate, and slaughter in a much better fashion then each other while simultaneously making sure the Old World is a smoldering wreck.

In general, Chaos in the Old World is a territory control game with players competing in specific regions of the Old World to Dominate them, Corrupt them, and finally Ruin them.

The full rules for the game (and expansion) can be found at the following links:

So yeah. Just wanted to see if I could round up 4-5 players who might be interested in playing!

Papa Nurgle is indeed playable.

For those interested in seeing a sample game in progress...

(The PA forums actually have quite a few CitOW games, so feel free to look around for more sample play)
