07: Skaven Early History | Warhammer Old World Lore

Listen to this episode from Warhammer Old World: Laying Down The Lore on Spotify. Return to Cripple Peak! Our second episode delves into the most and yet least bloody tunnel fighting war of the Old World. The largest deposit of warpstone ever found is on the line and the Skaven hordes vie for control of it with the undead hordes legions of Nagash. We explore the sad life and undignified death of Alcadizzar and the terrifying Fellblade that allowed Clan Rikek to conquer the mighty fortress of Nagashizzar. We look at the shady and underhanded techniques of the Skaven at war including warpstone plumbing and the Tromboning of the Undead. The sad tale of the fall of Karak Eight Peak and the thoroughly inevitable and hilarious first Skaven civil war kicked off by the rise of Clan Pestilens.⁠⁠⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chat with us on Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster⁠⁠⁠
