Show Notes
It’s been a roller coaster year for Old World in 2025 — or as Val puts it, "uppy-downy." In this massive retrospective, Rob and Val look back at the entirety of 2025 for Warhammer: The Old World. From the "turgid" pipeline at the start of the year to the absolute explosion of releases that followed, we cover it all.
