Still remember as a 12 year kid reading Tuomas’ White Dwarf article, “The Bigger They Are…” all about dealing with the big scary units and characters that had become so prevalent at the time. It’s a testament to the talent that Mordheim is still such a well loved game and that 6th edition WFB is still played by so many.

Always such great fun listing to / watching Tuomas talk enthusiastically about Warhammer, Mordheim and Tolkien. I remember feeling great pride back in my youth as a fellow Finn, when I heard Tuomas had joined GW and especially when I first learned of the new game Mordheim. Being a huge fan of Necromunda for a few years, Mordheim was a dream come true. And it still is.

I was 23 when it came out 23 years ago! So funny, I met Tuomas once and he is really a cool guy. Had a great talk with him. I had the great honor to help design some warbands and also work with some great people on the Lustria, Khemri and Karak Azghal settings for Mordheim.

This was a great interview. Nobody ever seems to talk about Necromunda even though Mordheim has blown up in popularity recently, Necromunda never seems to get credited as a precursor. [I'm writing this before I am have finished the interview, maybe you will discuss it here] It is also a tabletop skirmish game set in a single dystopian city in the Warhammer universe. It also involves building a warband who you gain experience, injuries, equipment and money. It seems to have essentially the same core DNA as Mordheim. I've thing that I thought was great about Necromunda is that they didn't try to produce "40k the skirmish game". They had a totally different set of factions that made sense within the setting. This made the world much more immersive and interesting. I have never played Mordheim and I haven't played Necromunda since i was a teenager. I don't doubt that Mordheim is a better game but I feel like Necromunda shootout get some credit.

Great interview and loved hearing about the inspiration that Tuomas had when bringing Mordheim to life. Making me want to break out the old book (which is falling apart!) and give it another read. Loved the little aside on Middle-earth at the end there (one of my mega passions haha) with some interesting insights - I see that he talks about it quite a bit on Twitter on and off which is cool :) Looking forward to more videos!

Mira it is an absolute pleasure for me vicariously to watch you uncover bits of old lore. Your channel evokes nostalgia from my early days when it was all new, and I don't think I can overstate the value I get from these vids in terms of good feels. Thankyou for your endeavours and best of luck growing the channel, though I doubt you'll be needing it. Good times!

Pirinen is the man. I think deep down he was disgusted with GW's treadmill philosophy on needing more and more models to play as the editions went on. Also the fact that rules began to be spread over a growing number of books, which you're expected to buy all of.

I can also vouch for 6th Ed WHFB as the best. Grim-dark, gritty. Nice power level and balance and decent sized armies. After that, the power creep got insane, the armies too big, too much high fantasy, huge monsters and so on.. The hordes rule just ruined it and made the armies look really boring....
