In this episode of The Square Based Show, Rob and Val dive into the highly anticipated Renegade 2.0 update for the Skaven! Designed to fix the bland legacy rules that left the faction feeling gutted, this update breathes life back into the army by restoring the chaotic, friendly-fire-heavy, and beautifully unreliable mechanics that make playing the vile rat-men so iconic. Val breaks down the design philosophy behind bringing back mechanics from previous editions, including the return of the Skaven misfire table, shooting into combat with "Expendable" units, and the infamous Doom Rocket.  Do not ask for whom the Screaming Bell tolls, it tolls for thee. Yes-yes.  *Read the DRAFT Renegade Skaven here:*  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QAt19do6rdvZgE8E6wLxUBkxfLBwdWYncAiof01vFHQ/edit?usp=sharing *Share your Feedback here (or in the comments below)* https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeVv-GMpx67sRR1v8aetdHUtwt77WS4lfv_-D5GhNrCNVutbQ/viewform Chapters 0:00 - Intro & The Renegade Skaven 1:11 - The Goal of Renegade 2.0 2:41 - Skaven Evolution & Missing Identity 5:14 - Restoring Missing Skaven Mechanics 8:35 - Document Hosting & Community Feedback 11:12 - Table of Contents & Reading Guide 13:20 - Army Composition Rules 15:50 - Skaven Lore & The Civil War 17:03 - Introducing Skaven Dregs 19:08 - Special Rules Overview 20:01 - The "Expendable" Rule 23:23 - Verminous Valor Mechanics 27:31 - Poisoned Wind & Skaven Misfire Tables 30:03 - Magic Items: The Fell Blade & Weeping Blade 34:24 - Magic Items: Death Globes & Warpstone Armor 35:40 - The Iconic Storm Banner 40:40 - Plague Banner & Brass Orb 42:46 - Skavenbrew, Storm Demon & Warpstone Tokens 47:12 - Magic Lore & Grey Seer Points 50:22 - Warlock Engineers & The Doom Rocket 54:30 - Clan Eshin Master Assassins 56:18 - Plague Priests 58:22 - Stormvermin Updates 1:00:07 - Clanrats & Skirmishing Weapon Teams 1:03:45 - Deep Dive: Skaven Dregs Gameplay 1:10:31 - Warplock Jezzails & Poison Wind Globadiers 1:13:23 - Packmasters & Rat Ogres 1:18:04 - Giant Rats & Night Runners 1:19:43 - Gutter Runners & Plague Monks 1:21:10 - Plague Censer Bearers 1:22:39 - The Screaming Bell & Tolling Chart 1:28:14 - The Plague Furnace 1:29:55 - The Doom Wheel Returns 1:34:22 - Hell Pit Abomination & Plagueclaw Catapult 1:36:03 - Final Reflections & Future Units MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: ► *Rob's Old World EVENTS in Nottingham!* https://tsnarena.com/events/category/the-old-world/ ► *Tickets for Canhammer Teams in Ottawa May 2 and 3*  https://www.ccbb.ca/tickets ►  Support us on *PATREON* and join us on Discord: https://www.patreon.com/Squarebased *OLD WORLD RESOURCES* ► *Square Based Comp AND Tournament Packs*    https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world/square-based-comp/ ► *The Square Based FAQ:* https://www.squarebased.com/faqs ► *The Renegade Legacy Pack:*  https://www.squarebased.com/ ► *Our 500pt Foray Pack:* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world-500-point-foray/ ► *Old World Army Builder:* https://old-world-builder.com/ ► *Old World Rules Wiki:* https://tow.whfb.app/ ► *Old World Rankings (Past and Upcoming Old World Events:* https://oldworldrankings.com/ *MERCH*   https://thehonestwargamer.com/product-category/square-based/ Youtube Music Playlist for Audio Only:  https://tinyurl.com/SB-YouTube-Music-Playlist Podcast on all other Platforms:  https://squarebasedpodcast.podbean.com/ #squarebased #warhammertheoldworld #warhammerfantasy

In this episode of The Square Based Show, Rob and Val dive deep into the first major DRAFT update for the Renegade Army Lists—starting with the Dark Elves. This isn't just a minor tweak; it’s a "2.0" overhaul designed to bring the Legacy Dark Elf list up to par with the Core factions in Warhammer: The Old World. Val discusses his process of "vibing" with the faction, addressing community feedback, and his quest to restore the "hateful" identity of the Druchii while respecting the power level of the current edition.

He’s back! After a brief hiatus and a spot of "looks-maxing" surgery, Val has resubscribed to the show. In this episode, Rob and Val dive into the ultimate "what if" scenario: *What happens if Games Workshop actually pulls the plug on Legacy factions in a future 2.0 update?* After a delightful catchup, the fellas take a deep look into how much the Legacy Factions are still being played, as well as how much the Renegade Legacy Pack is used at events. With a movement afoot for some events to stop including Legacy factions (Renegades or not) the time is now to decide how the community should respond.  CHAPTERS 0:00 - Intro: Val has Resubscribed! 2:23 - Warhammer Total War: Tiger Warriors & Furry Representation 8:31 - Val’s Recovery: Red Dead Redemption & Beaver Sex Hormones 13:16 - UPCOMING EVENT (link for tix below): Val’s UK Trip & Maple Mayhem (April 4 and 5) 15:21 - Rob’s Chaos Dwarfs: Too Pretty to Move? 21:14 - Project Reveal: The Chaos Wastelands Battle Pack 29:57 - Update on The Massive Warhammer Old World Survey 2026 31:46 - THE MAIN EVENT: What If Legacy Armies are Deleted? 42:01 - Community Stewardship: Lessons from Blood Bowl 48:51 - Data Dump: Legacy vs. Renegade Usage Rates Worldwide 1:02:42 - The Cult of "Official" vs. Community Creation 1:19:14 - The Renegade Process: Identity over Balance 1:40:29 - The Emergency: Managing Vampire Counts Meta 1:47:04 - Val’s Personal Update: Putting Humpty Dumpty together again. 1:50:24 - Outro & Nerfed Cathay Battle Reports LINKS MENTIONED IN THE SHOW: MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: *Maple Mayhem Tickets COME PLAY WITH ROB AND VAL IN NOTTINGHAM!*:  ► https://tsnarena.com/event/maple-mayhem/ ► *Rob's Old World EVENTS in Nottingham!* https://tsnarena.com/events/category/the-old-world/ ► *Tickets for Canhammer Teams in Ottawa May 2 and 3*  https://www.ccbb.ca/tickets ►  Support us on *PATREON* and join us on Discord: https://www.patreon.com/Squarebased *OLD WORLD RESOURCES* ► *Old World Rankings (Past and Upcoming Old World Events:* https://oldworldrankings.com/ *MERCH*   https://thehonestwargamer.com/product-category/square-based/ ► *Square Based Comp AND Tournament Packs*    https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world/square-based-comp/ ► *The Square Based FAQ:* https://www.squarebased.com/faqs ► *The Renegade Legacy Pack:*  https://www.squarebased.com/ ► *Our 500pt Foray Pack:* https://thehonestwargamer.com/warhammer-the-old-world-500-point-foray/ ► *Old World Army Builder:* https://old-world-builder.com/ ► *Old World Rules Wiki:* https://tow.whfb.app/ Youtube Music Playlist for Audio Only:  https://tinyurl.com/SB-YouTube-Music-Playlist Podcast on all other Platforms:  https://squarebasedpodcast.podbean.com/ #squarebased #warhammertheoldworld #warhammerfantasy

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.
