Editing Warhammer Fantasy Battle

<br><br>

Imagine [[Warhammer 40,000]]. Now, take away the [[Necrons|villain]] [[Space Marines|sues]], the [[Abaddon|incompetence]], and the faggotry that is the [[Ultramarines]]. There you go, Warhammer 40,000 1st Edition. Good ol' [[Rogue Trader (Sourcebook)|Rogue Trader]]. Only we're not talking about 40k. Nope, <b>Warhammer Fantasy Battle</b> was there long before 40k. It still has daemons (in fact, it has all the same daemons and [[Chaos Gods|Chaos gods]] as 40k) but, instead of boltguns and chainswords, humanity has to fight them with swords and muskets. Somehow, they still manage to take down Bloodthirsters.

Some argue WFB requires more tactical skill from the player; however, this is probably because it's not as widely discussed and isn't usually played by <s>attractive and normal people</s> 13-year-olds. It's also got many more dead-hard, beardy [[Vikings]] killing, raping, and pillaging. Also skulls.

Those guys who made the Total War games have said that they'll make computer games based on it. Feel free to have a nerdgasm. 

[[derp|Also, canonically, the world of Warhammer is called the Warhammer World.]]

TL;DR: 40K is this in a sci-fi setting.

==In A World Of War==
Warhammer is about peasants living in shit, dying in shit, and the thousands of perils that befall them. Which are often covered in shit. It is not a fun place to be, [[Warhammer_40k|though there are worse]]. Your average soldier of the Empire is armed with a sword, a musket, and maybe a uniform which comes with a cheap piece of armour. Thusly equipped, he is expected to go toe-to-toe with a daemon. Or a 9-foot-tall daemonically enhanced steel/daemon/*insert Chaotic thing* [[Warriors of Chaos|metal clad super Viking]]. Or a giant, many of which prefer to stuff opponents down their pants. Or a [[Lizardmen|battle-trained whatsit-a-saurus]]. Or a [[Skaven|rat-man armed with a flame thrower]]. Or a [[Beastmen|half man/half goat eight-foot-tall killing machine]]. Or... well, let's just say nothing nice ever comes out of the Chaos Wastes. The one good thing for humanity is that the various factions and races have enough sense to set aside their differences to avoid total annihilation. Of course, once the threat of turning into some daemon's bitch passes, the various races get right back to smacking the living shit out of each other.

==Background==
Warhammer is pretty much early Renaissance Europe, only much, much worse. If you know history, you'll know that's saying something. Nearly everything has some kind of historical analogy, at least within the human nations. Everywhere is a shit place to live, pretty much. 

'''The [[Empire]]''', the main human nation, is a lot like the Holy Roman Empire, with very angry Germans wielding swords and muskets. However, it also adds steam tanks and magic. It is ruled by an Emperor (who is, admittedly less awesome than the [[EMPRAH]]). He is elected from amongst the ranks of the Elector Counts, who govern the different provinces of the Empire and wield badass swords called Runefangs. They are the closest WFB has to "good" guys. That is to say, like in 40k, not close at all.

The first Emperor was a guy named Sigmar. He was fucking hardcore. It is commonly theorized he's one of the lost primarch-sons of the Emprah. After becoming the head of his tribe, he made friends with the dwarfs by saving their king. After that, the dwarfs and humans hung out a lot, and Sigmar founded the Empire. Eventually, Sigmar got bored with politics and pulled a Leman Russ, heading eastwards to fight some new beasties. And was promptly never heard from again. For some reason, people began worshiping him as a god and now he is the main god in the Empire. However, the more reasonable conclusion is that he's long dead and Ulric, the number two god of the Empire, handles the prayers of the Sigmarite priests. Neckbeards speculate that he may, in fact be [[Butthurt|almost as awesome as his 40K counterpart]], because he is basically Thor + Jesus = Awesome. Also, his [[warhammer]], Ghal-Maraz, is THE warhammmer that both Fantasy and 40K are named for.  Which, you must admit, makes Sigmar pretty damn significant.

The current one is a guy named Karl Franz. He's pretty awesome too, he actually has a political and militaristic stance and he [[gets shit done]]. He rides a giant fucking griffon that eats people and owns the one fucking dragon in the entire damn empire, that also eats people. Also, cool bling and a hammer (again, THE Warhammer). Not a fool to be messed with.

The Emperor has to put up with a lot of bullshit: Vampires, Daemons, Orcs, Skaven, Mummies, Beastmen, Elves and other humans. If you can think of it, the Empire has gone to war with it at least once. Its even gone to war with itself a couple of times. Its continued success in managing to keep from falling apart is as much of a mystery as it finding an ally in the dwarves. The dwarves are pretty fucking cliche, but that comes later.

The other major human realm is '''[[Bretonnia]]'''. Knights, chivalry, all that King Arthur bullshit, with the addition of worshiping baby-eating forest spirits. The peasants in Bretonnia somehow have it worse than the peasants in the Empire. Its pretty much medieval France, only worse-- and these are the guys that invented the guillotine! They have a lot of knights, the lowest of which are Knight Errants, then Realm Knights, then Questing Knights and finally Grail Knights. Peasants are almost completely useless, except as archers or cannon fodder, except for the peasants that are, in fact, carrying a dead knight. But, since they're more French than they are English, this does kinda make sense...

And for all of you neglecting faggots, it's still Bretonnia, not Brettonia.

Other human nations, which are too far off/non-white to warrant an army book include Araby (Middle East), Ind (India), [[Nippon]] ([[Weeaboo|Japan]]), [[Cathay]] (China), [[Kislev]] (Poland and Russia), Tilea (Italy), and Estalia (Spain). So, yeah... paying token tribute to minorities and other cultures with generic names and generic treatments is something that transcends all planes of existence.

Then you've got your elves. They come in three flavors: High, Dark, and Wood.

'''[[High Elves (Warhammer)|High Elves]]''' used to be cool, they liked to party and were into [[eldar|magically fueled orgies]]. Until they ripped open a hole in magic. Cue [[Chaos]]. Then they became selfrighteous dicks, and started trying to conquer the world. They didn't get far. Mostly because a civil war broke out between the fun loving elves, and the militaristic elves. 

The fun loving elves became the '''[[Dark Elves (Warhammer)|Dark Elves]]''', and turned into a pack of [[Dark Eldar|cruel, drug addicted fanatical dicks]]. The militaristic elves became High Elves, and turned into [[Eldar|a pack of obnoxiously uptight dicks.]] 

The colonials said fuck you to the High Elves, took to the forests of the rest of the world and became '''Wood Elves''', and turned into a pack of insane dicks. They live in the forests of Bretonnia, smoke weed and eat babies. Current edition focuses on the Wood Elves living in Athel Loren, which is both alive, and akin to a forest in Soviet Russia - where forest cuts down you! In short, elves are dicks (albeit awesome ones).

But don't say it to their faces. They are still a hardy lot, and its pretty much impossible to live down getting your ass handed to you by a skinny, effeminate man who comes to the fight wearing a dress. Trust me, I know. But man, are they- Enough about the elves! 

'''[[Dwarves]]'''!

They're fucking cliche, which means they're still better than elves. They've also got a few added twists. Gyrocopters and death cults. There is nothing that isn't improved through the addition of flying machines and death cults. The dwarves have zero magic. No, scratch that, they have even less than zero magic. It tends to fuck up when they're around, and everyone uses magic but them. They compensate for their lack of magic by building giant fucking machines instead. Flamethrowers, helicopters, organ guns, and pretty much any other variant of carnage that can be moshed together with enough steam, alcohol, and gunpowder. They build them smaller but they build them better, and they're all fueled by alcohol. There are also evil dwarves called '''Chaos Dwarves'''. They used to be an interesting and unique faction that resembled an even more grimdark ancient Babylon, their corrupting magic slowly turning their evil sorcerers to stone (dorfs ain't meant to magic it up). Then they became like normal dwarves, but dressed in black. Then Forgeworld made them ''back'' into their first, awesome thing again - half-Baylonian, half-stripped down industrialist assholes a la Isengard.

Their favorite pastimes are drinkin' and fightin'.

'''[[Chaos]]''': The original Servants of the Dark Gods. Beardy, berserking [[Vikings]] clad in Unholy Chaos Plate and blessed with the Marks of the Chaos Gods personify this faction, and basically granted Warhammer Fantasy it's popularity. Joining them are Daemons of Chaos, who, unlike in 40K, are completely scared shitless of the Mortal Servants and serve no other purpose than to be bound within weapons and given to the Norse Heroes. Which is totally badass. And unlike a certain armless failure, they have actually managed to get shit done. Much in the way of Angron. Joining the dead-hard Vikings of Chaos are the Beastmen, who're basically furries in service to Chaos. Except, unlike regular furries, they're fucking grotesque, mutated scarred and utterly evil beings (sounds like furries to me) that grind people to bits with FUCKBIG club/axes. From AMBUSH! Cultists in the Empire; who are either revolutionaries, closeted heretics or bored nobles, and occasionally Chaos Dwarves. These guys are at an ungodly level of badass and are the premier melee oriented army of Warhammer Fantasy. Even better than the Greenskins.

'''[[Lizardmen]]'''. The arch-enemies of Chaos. Genetically engineered by aliens/gods, they were designed to destroy Chaos. They live in the jungle and are heavily based off the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas. If that offends you, you're playing the wrong game. They have the most powerful wizards and one of the most powerful fighting units. Some could argue that they're broken in the extreme. They can just fuck right off 'cause Lizardmen are awesome. And no furry shit here. They're as ugly and unappealing as real lizard people would be. They are ruled by grotesque, fat toad creatures called Slann. Most of whom are dead. Not 'undead', just dead. And some how still active.

'''[[Vampire Counts]]'''. They're fucking vampires, do I need to draw you a fucking picture? There's your ''Dracula''-style Vampires (Von Carsteins), Psycho Lesbian Vampires (Lahmians), Nosferatu (Strigoi), Magic-style (Necrarch), and Vlad the Impaler-style (Blood Dragons) ''[SIDENOTE: Current Ed. Bloodlines are out, but conceptually it lives on in "Bloodline Powers" available to your vampire, the only difference is that you can integrate different styles of badassery, as if they weren't already ungodly fucking killing ma-fucking-chines].'' All of them can raise hordes of undead, and use zombies and shit as troops. They also use ghouls, which technically aren't undead. Or are they, now? Oh, and wraiths and banshees. And nigh-indestructible Black/Blood knights that kill with a fucking mean look/rip guts out and force-feed them to original owners. Also, bats are EVERY-FUCKING-WHERE, and not the kind that scare you when you open the closet, then fly of into the night - think piranhas with wings and a fucking attitude. Creepy as all fuck. No Anne Rice, ''Angel'' bullshit, these guys are fucking evil. And they're not about to save you from being hit by a car to creep into your room at night, no, they're most likely the one driving the car into you.

So, our conclusion is that Vampire shit fucking Counts fuck are fucking shit badass fuck shit.

'''[[Tomb Kings]]'''. Egyptian mummies! With Anubis warriors! And BONE SCORPIONS! In conclusion. MUTHA FUCKEN SKULL CATAPULTS! Also Khopesh.  Plus they ride around on GIANT STONE LOLCATS that breath fire and crush stuff.  Don't forget the giant GOD STATUES that shoot DEATH LASERS from their eyes.

'''[[Skaven]]'''. Technologically advanced rat people. Again, no furry shit here. These guys are ugly, fucking foul creatures who keep their women folk, otherwise known as "their bloated, scab-ridden brood-mares" locked away for the sole purpose of mass-reproducing thousands upon thousands of future vermin-men. The leaders of the species are a motley bunch, composed of batshit crazy scientists, ninja-like assassins, and bio-terrorists. Everything else is either slave cannon fodder or a mutant abomination. They love their hordes almost as much as they love their broken tech. And puns, fuckton of puns come with these guys, they love their puns. They made a nuke once, but it failed to detonate. Most of their schemes (they love scheming!) involved taking down the Empire and conquering the world. They're like Pinky and the Brain, but with flame throwers, tesla coils, thousands of minions, and no arsing about on the subject. Also, [[DOOMWHEELS|WEAPONIZED HAMSTER WHEELS.]]

'''[[Orcs]] and Goblins''' - You've all seen ''40k''. Much the same, except here the goblins can fight back. HAHA! DISREGARD THAT LAST PART, GOBLINS ARE JUST AS USELESS HERE AS 40K!Now add trolls and giants and occasionally ogres into the mix as well. ! Except here they have Night Goblin Fanatics popping out of the ranks, which could cause your deathstar unit to panic off the table if it wasn't for the cavalry driving them out first. Because you took light cavalry, right?

'''The Ogre Kingdoms''' - FUCKHUEG sumo wrestler-types with [[Katanas are Underpowered in d20|katanas]], frying pans strapped to their gullets and a [[Neckbeard|mean streak as big as their enormously fat asses.]] Will eat ANYTHING, including the chef, the table, the plates and the fucking bundle of forks. They ride large beasts resembling mammoths and saber-tooth tigers. They think with their stomachs, which shows how fucking intelligent they are, plus their shaman-cooks use a very specific "gut magic", that mostly consists of shoving all kinds of inedible stuff down their own throats. And each and every one of the fuckers is obsessed with stuffing his face full 'o your innards. Heck, they even worship a giant, fuck-off sky mouth. Ogres are often considered to be a "neutral" army and can end up fighting for any side since they hire themselves out as mercenaries to whoever can pay them in piles of [[List of /tg/ Cuisine|food]].

==Tabletop==

===Gameplay===
''Warhammer'' is a tabletop wargame where two or more players compete against each other with "armies" of 20 mm - 50 mm heroic scale miniatures. Games may be played on any appropriate surface, although the standard is a 6 ft by 4 ft tabletop decorated with model scenery in scale with the miniatures. If you're [[Games Workshop]]'s bitch-boy and have no imagination of your own you will buy the ridiculously overpriced [[Citadel Miniatures|Citadel]] [[Realm of Battle]] tabletop and have a scenery collection made of boring plastic pieces bought entirely from GW, but REAL players make their own gaming tables (saving a fuck-ton of money in the process). Games Workshop used to encourage this until they sold their souls for money. 

Gameplay follows a turn structure in which one player completes all movement for troops, then simulates casting spells (when spell-using units are available), uses all ranged or missile weapons in the army such as bows and handguns, then any units touching fight in melee or close-combat. After finishing, the second player does the same. The winner is often determined by victory points; earning a number equal to the value of enemy units killed. Special objectives can add or subtract from this total based on predefined goals, usually holding parts of the battlefield or killing powerful units (such as the enemy general).

===Magic===
Perhaps the thing that separates ''Warhammer Fantasy'' from ''40k'' the most, aside from the obvious, is the use of magic. Each army (with the exception of the dwarves) has at least one unit that can use magic, often in the form of an independent wizard. When magic units are present on the battlefield, they're given their own turn separate from the shooting, moving and melee phases to cast their spells. There are several kinds of magic but most magicians are able to use only a single form.

* Dark Magic, used by Dark Elves, Beastmen, and sorcerers of [[Chaos]].
* High Magic, used by the [[Slann]] and the [[High Elves (Warhammer)|High Elves]]. 
* Nehekharan Incantations, Used exclusively by [[Tomb Kings]] Liche Priests and High Liche Priests (and Settra)
* Light: Wind of Hysh, Lore of Light. Basically healing and shit, plus doing extra damage to daemons and undead.
* Gold: Wind of Chamon, Lore of Metal and Alchemy. Basically armour buffs and debuffs, with their offensive spells doing more damage the higher your armour save is. [[Troll|Problem, Knights?]]
* Jade: Wind of Ghyran, Lore of Life. Basically lots and lots of buffs, making your own units harder to kill. They look like hippies, but don't tell them that, [[RAGE|they'll fucking murder you]].
* Celestial: Wind of Azyr, Lore of the Heavens. Lets people tell the future and stuff, plus they can summon lightning and meteorites that really hurt flying units.
* Grey: Wind of Ulgu, Lore of Shadows. Basically misdirection and illusions, relying on Leadership tests. They can also teleport every time they use a spell.
* Amethyst: Wind of Shysh, Lore of Death. Basically the Lore of Fire, except more killy and shorter-ranged.
* Bright: Wind of Aqshy. Lore of Fire. Basically the ammunition of the Fire obsessed psychopaths known as the Bright Wizards.
* Amber: Wind of Ghur, Lore of Beasts. Basically a Radagast rip off. WHO IS RADAGAST?!?!? [[The Lord of the Rings|RTFM!!!]]
* Daemon magic: Used by... well, daemons. Broken into three categories - one for each of the gods that give a shit about lasers - [[Slaanesh|Slaaneshi]] [Indulgent, relies on enemy Ld], [[Nurgle|Nurglite]] [decay, revolves around enemy S/T scores], and [[Tzeentch|Tzeentchian]] [OMG FIRES]. [[Khorne]] is too awesome for magic; he'd much rather crush skulls with his bare thighs and anything less makes you dangerously unmanly and at the absolute least bicurious.
* Necromancy: used exclusively by [[Vampire_Counts|Vampires]] and Necromancers. 
* Warpstone: used exclusively by the Grey Seers of the [[Skaven]]. 
* Gut magic: used exclusively by the Ogre Butchers. 
* Waaagh magic: used exclusively by [[Orcs]] and Goblins. Has a very high chance of making the user's head asplode.
* Athel Loren magic: used exclusively by Wood Elves.  Moves forests, or move folks through forests.
* Ice: Used exclusively by the Tzar of Russi- er, Kislev.
* Lizard magic: Used by [[lizardmen]], it has only one spell, called "Fuck you, I'm an Aztec dinosaur, therefore awesome."

[[Warhammer Magic]] is powerful, very powerful. A lone unit can wipe out half the opposing army with the right spell at the right time. Magic can also misfire, badly. This adds an element of unpredictability to its use, making it much more dangerous to the user and therefore, much less broken.

GW also recently released an expansion to WFB with a bigger focus on magic, called [[Storm of Magic]]. Which turns magic from regular broken into <s>DOUBLE</s> TRIPLE BROKEN, but misfiring will fuck your mage up in 12 different ways, [[lulz|and then Khorne will throw giant brass kull at him/her]].

==Significant Personage Of Warhammer==

* '''[[Sigmar | Sigmar Heldenhammer]]:''' Born some random tribesman, <s>Conan</s> Sigmar united the squabbling human tribes in what would become known as the Empire and killed a ton of Orcs. Later, he began to hang out a lot with the Dwarfs and, in his most famous act, helped them defend Black Fire Pass from a massive WAAAGH! After this, the Dwarf High King gifted him Ghal Maraz, a super-duper powerful warhammer. He was the first Emperor of the [[Empire]], but he got bored and disappeared on a journey to find something interesting to do. The Empire canonized him as a god, and today the Church of Sigmar is the largest and most powerful faith in the Empire (although only one among many). Some believe him to be one of the missing [[Primarch]]s, given how badass he was, but this has been disputed by newer [[fluff]] detailing his birth and family life. 
* '''[[Karl Franz]]:''' This guy is the current Emperor of the Empire. He owns Ghal Maraz now, as well as the biggest motherfucking <strike>Hippogryph</strike> Gryphon, named DEATHCLAW, who he rides while [[rape|assraping]] bitches who try to invade Imperial soil. And he has a fucking dragon. 
* '''Magnus the Pious''': Greatest Emperor since [[Sigmar]]. Also one of the few who wasn't morally bankrupt.
* '''Volkmar the Grim''': Grand Theogonist of the Empire. Quite a stern faced fellow; he was once chained up to a daemonic standard by [[Chaos Gods|Be'Lakor]], but simply [[Awesome|broke himself off, murdered the daemons surrounding him, and marched through the Chaos wastes to get back to the Empire]]. <s>[[Derp|This has since been retconned]].</s>  Not according to Chris Wraight's Sword of Vengeance.
* '''Gotrek & Felix''': Adventuring duo, have a lot of books based on them. Gotrek tolerates Felix travelling with him because he needs someone to pen the mighty tale of his epic doom. In recent times their relation have come close to a bro-friendship and they trusts completely each other. While he's not in there for the chicks, Felix goes to a rate of 1-2 per two books.
* '''Kurt Helborg''': Captain of the Reiksguard and [[Ultramarines|second to the Emperor]] in military terms. Also a badass moustache.
* '''Ar-Ulric Valgeir''': The Viking leader of the Cult to Ultic, the [[Space Wolves|wolf god]]. 
* '''Luthor Huss''': Crazy ass preacher. [[Awesome]] in the way to show the middle finger to those over-fat, political fuckwits of the Sigmar cult of the capital and take the "Fight Chaos to death" thing personally... with a huge hammer.
* '''Balthasar Gelt''': Empire Wizard, looks like Dr. Doom. Rides a white pegasus and wears such gaudy clothing that Lady Gaga looks frumpy by comparison. Possibly Elton John without the singing voice.
* '''Valten''': Reincarnation of Sigmar. Got ganked by a Skaven, probably Snikch, but the lack of gore makes it hard to tell.
* '''Louen Leoncour''': King of [[Bretonnia]]. Believes in the Feudal system, also believes that a 300% tax rate for the peasantry promotes economic growth, also believes that knights are of infallible morality, also believes that guns are weaker than bows , also believes people of the Empire would prefer a system of governance that emphasizes crushing their hopes and dreams, also believes that a pig and 12 Bretonnian coppers (which exchanges for less than half an Empire copper on a good day) is an excessive reward for saving his nation.  In the same support group for ludicrous theme naming as Canis Wolfborn.
* '''Lady of the Lake''': Creepy cannibal spirit of Bretonnia. A fine piece of ass regardless of diet. May be an elf in disguise.
* '''[[The Green Knight | Green Knight]]''': Bretonnian Holy Warrior and professional ass rapist.
* '''Katarin the Ice Queen''': Tzarin of Kislev. Cold bitch.
* '''Teclis''': Mage of the High Elves. Pathetic weakling that drinks magic potions like an alcoholic and falls over in a breeze, although he's also one of the few non-Slann mages capable of nuking cities.  Considered a Mary Sue by some but they are mistaken, his brother is the Mary Sue.
* '''Tyrion''': Teclis' twin brother and a fuckawesome warrior. May in fact be aroused by killing; it's hard to tell because he won't stop to answer questions.  Also happens to be a bigger Mary Sue than [[Kaldor Draigo]] and a bigger dick than [[Eldrad]].  For instance, in 'Blood of Aenarion' he matches veteran warriors with a blade even though he's young and barely practiced himself.  Women flock to his bed ([[FATAL|including his own cousin]]) and everyone treats him like a hero even though he hasn't done anything heroic yet (being a descendant of one doesn't count, you have to earn it).  Also has the supposed flaw of not being good at anything outside of war. "Supposed" because the flaw never affects him when it should harm him.
* '''Orion''': Consort King of the Wood Elves.  Rides through Bretonnia every summer and kills everybody who runs from him.  
* '''Thorgrimm Grudgebearer''': Dwarf High King, very angry, very angry indeed. He carries a book called "The Great Book of Grudges", where EVERY single fault aganist the [[Dorf]] people is noted and taken ino account when the time of skullcrushing comes, hence is angriness.
* '''Josef Bugman''': Dwarf brewer and 200% Awesome. After his brewery got burned down by some goblins he began an impossible mission to kill the tribe that decided the world didn't need anymore Bugman's XXXXX. Now he roams the world with his surviving employees and family fucking shit up. 
* '''Lord Madzamundi''': Most powerful and influential [[Slann]] alive, unnecessarily rides on a dinosaur and gets the bloated toad-alien equivalent to a raging hard-on every time he nukes a city and/or non-Lizardmen species into dust. Also leads the Lizardmen equivalent to the Klan and was one of the brilliant minds behind a plan for a redecorating of the world's volcanic system, this also resulted in the Dwarves being marginalised close to the point of extinction. And then he fapped to it.
* '''Venerable Lord Kroak''': Slann Mage Lord, most powerful crapass fat useless toad magician in the setting. Can't even move by himself. Also, he is made of awesome awesome fat fa/tg/uy guts and more awesome magic, he is fucking death and he CAN FUCK UP A FUCKING CITY. Despite being dead for the last few millennium, his corpse used to shoot laser from his eyes, now its just localised nuclear explosion... every. fucking. turn. Probably the most powerful entity because even being a [[Emperor|dead, inanimate corpse,]] he has killed more shit than anyone else on this list, except for maybe Nagash, even then its too close to make a call, except that he probably will kill Nagash if they meet and would just blink the guy out of existence if they had met when he was alive. He also gets bonus points for not having actually being reanimated, vampirised or any other kind of weird back from the death shit. He is straight up dead. And his rotting corpse is still more magic than the magicest anything else in the universe.  In short, he's the grand toad poohbah of lizardkind, and he's on a hoverchair. Not dissimilar to a Darlek in this regard.
* '''[[Archaon]]''': Lord of the End Time, the Ever Chosen and second most powerful warrior in the setting. Beat all four of the greatest Champions of the Empire in single fight during the Storms of Chaos Campaign But got bashed about badly by Grimgor who headbutted his teeth out of his face.  Grimgot iz da best!
* '''Wulfrik the World-Walker''': Chaos Lord, executioner of the Gods and consummate smack-talker of the Warhammer world.
* '''Aekold Hellbrass''': Pathetic excuse for a Tzeentchian Champion.
* '''Arbaal the Undefeated''': All mighty Champion of Khorne. Another one of the greatest warriors in the setting. Obviously, being a favored champion of the Ultimate God of War. Was with Asavar Kul when Praag was destroyed, fled the battle after he died at Russia, likely to assume Khorne ain't very happy with him. Also destroyed the gates of Praag with a single strike from his sword. (badass) Angron probably got his inspiration from this guy. Is he as fun to be around as [[Kharn]]?
* '''Asavar Kul''': Greatest Champion of Chaos. Greatest warrior in the setting. Almost destroyed the Empire. 'Nuff said.
* '''Vardek CROM!''': Archaon's lieutenant and King of the tribe of Asavar Kul. Was man handled by Archaon once and beat Grimgor once.
* '''Grimgor Ironhide''': Orc Warlord, one of the most powerful warriors in the setting. Got his ass handed to him once by Archaon's lieutenant, Vardek CROM!!! Grimgor swore to prove he was the best in any case and did it beating Archaon himself in singular duel.
* '''Grom the Paunch''': Former Goblin Warlord. Famous for being obese, no joke. Also for near DESTROYING the Empire, oh, AND Ulthuan. not bad for a Gobbo. No one knows where is he now, <s>but it is unlikely that, whrerever he is, is alive(his wars was a hundred yeras before current era).</s> <span style="color:#80FF00">GROM LIVES, ya' git! An' when da waaaghboz returnz, wi'll stomp da humies an el's an' orcs fo' good! WAAAA-</span><span style="color:green">'''STOMP!''' Where ya been? Get back to camp an' start to load rukks in da... um... "thing", ya squishy git!</span>
* '''Thanquol''': Skaven grey seer and archenemy of Gotrek. He does lines of warpstone powder which is to cocaine what a monster truck is to a pair of baby's first rollerskates, also he managed to escape from the prophet of Sothek, who after losing his sacrifice to his awesomic god, takes a nap(meditate, despise the fact that he is a skink). Forever.
* '''Snikch''': Skaven ninja-assassin. Uses three scimitars at once to lop off limbs from his target, doesn't so much as assassinate people as shred them into little pieces.
* '''[[Malekith]]''': Lord of the Dark Elves; master of Dark Magic, uses a shield that can asplode your brain from a distance, and rides a giant-ass black dragon. Still lives with his mom. Also considered a whiny emo git who costs so much no one will ever use the Malekeith on a Dragon model because they'd rather finish the game before the entropic heat death of the universe.
* '''Malus Darkblade''': The Starscream of Warhammer. 
* '''Gorthor the Beastlord''': An Everchosen. Whipped up on the Empire for awhile before dying.
* '''[[Khazrak The One-Eye]]''': The most cunning Beastman. Loves messing with Todbringer.
* '''Morghur, Master of Skulls''': A creature so close to Chaos that stuff he touches becomes Spawns.
* '''Nagash''': Supreme Lord and Creator of the Vampires. Used to get shit done and then raised it as undead to scare the shit out of everyone, now he camps in fortress, or something, things have been quiet since 5th edition. He may still be getting some shit done, since Mannfred Von Carstein is a recogniced follower/ally of him. Supposedly the stronger human wizard ever, and had an almost evenly fight with sigmar. Almost, because he still ended up having his ass wiped. But Sigmar's gone and Nagash is still rockin' it, so he probably had the last laugh on that one. 
* '''Mannfred Von Carstein''': Vampire Lord, and the only Von Carstein to even think about getting shit done. He's also part responsible of the theft of the Ring of Bupreme Badassery of Vlad and using said theft in his rise to power. 
* '''[[Konrad Von Carstien]]''': Bat-Shit crazy vampire Lord. Just snapped one day and wandered off into a forest muttering to himself, where he was promptly tackled by a dwarf and stabbed in the heart with the Elector Count of Ostland's Runefang. [[Twilight|Total "pants-on-head" retarded vampire noob.]]
* '''Settra the Imperishable''': Greatest of the Tomb Kings. Fights upon a pimped out chariot and casts like a Liche High Priest. He has been toned down in the newest version of the game he now cast like a chump at a level 1
* '''Khalida''': Freaky mummy-chick blessed with the powers of a snake. Still hot.
* '''Overtyrant Tradelord Greasus Tribestealer Drakecrush Hoardmaster Goldtooth the Shockingly Obese''': A huge motherfucker that weighs more then a pile of corpses made from giants. He loves eating almost as much as he loves killing. His name is also really, really long. Ogres are impressed by his name and he probably gets a shitload of tail. But he's a huge lardass who costs 565 points and makes ogres more awesome and enemy units pant-shittingly stupid.
* '''Golgfag Maneater''': An Ogre mercenary, notorious for doing pretty much everything.  Example:  your mom.
