AWESOME LIES blog started just recently and it has been very active. Blog is full of interesting "retro musings" about Warhammer. There are many interesting articles, but I have to mention this one especially - classical The Enemy Within: A Companion.
With classical The Enemy Within I mean the original The Enemy Within (TEW), that was published originally by Games Workshop in the late 1980s and later in the 1990s by Hoghshead Publishing. It is the most legendary and widely praised campaign ever made for WFRP and highly regarded RPG campaign outside Warhammer circles too. Most Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay fans and players are familiar about the campaign and have played it (some even multiple times). Campaign itself is made from several linked adventures. You can find more about it from Wikipedia: The Enemy Within Campaign.
Back to AWESOME LIES - The Enemy Within: A Companion. Gideon has made great effort to bring this companion together. It is great addition to original campaign material, providing greater explanation, giving more supplementary material and help to Game Masters. And that is not all. Gideon is bringing even more ideas to table - AWESOME LIES - Twists in the Tale.

Games Workshop Concluding Deal For Licensing Rights to Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition (?)
For some years there has been rumors and talk about Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition, as the license is again free. As Age of Sigmar started, fans probably were not sure will there be anymore RPG based on the Old Warhammer World?
Well, lately there has been a lot of rumors about the new WFRP and now Grim and Perilous has published following article about Games Workshop concluding a deal with a major European publisher for world-wide distribution rights to Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.
Read here all about it...
More talk, rumors, speculations from Strike to Stun forum here and here.
This information is off course very interesting. New publisher, new version, new products, new fans - these would keep the good Old Warhammer World alive. But also, remember Zweihänder: Grim and Perilous RPG. It is coming soon. and that is the game system I'm personally waiting!

Chaos Runes Font
Happy New Year 2017!
What would be better way to start a new year, than a new great addition to rules. Ultrajosua has made a opentype font about dreaded and blasphemous Chaos Runes. This is great looking stuff to use in handouts, Chaos related sourcebooks...etc.
