Warhammer: The Old World Battle Report - War in the Border Princes 

"Two of my peasants are dead, but, I assure you, none of my knights actually care." I love Bretonnia.

The Duke whiffing nearly every attack is how you know that Fantasy is *really* back lmao

Seeing a Warhammer Fantasy battle report on this channel seems like a dream.

Actually whoever signed off on this give them a raise, this was probably the single best possible marketing decision you could have made for this game and they have their pulse on your market. I'm not even kidding dropping a super thematic battle report to show off the system before release is exactly what THIS community would get wound up by and something you've never done before. Absolutely fantastic.

11:29 - "Use a sharp end, my Lord!" Now, that's was just priceless.

I am way too excited for this game

I can't believe that in the year of our Lord 2024 I am watching a Warhammer Fantasy battle report on the official Warhammer RU-vid Channel. Huzzah!

Credit due to GW for making this free to everyone to view. It feels like I'm stepping right back in Fantasy as if it never left. The nostalgia is hitting in all the right places! Can't wait to get to the table!

“It’s blessed Bretonnia steel M’lado” had me choking on my tea. It feels so good to have Warhammer back 💜 thank you for posting this for free

This is really well created, great video, information, cuts, choice of shots, commentary, music, length. Well played! GG

These two guys, Simon and Nick, are made for this job. Their enthusiasm and passion for this game makes the video. Me and many others would love seeing them again in content in the future.

Incredible. This is the content I have been waiting literally my life for. Square based batreps from Warhammer Official? Colour me VERY impressed. Absolutely epic

Thanks so much to everyone who made this game happen.

As someone who came to the Warhammer universe through the Total war games, I have been so psyched to get the old world back. I don’t have much of a tabletop community around so have been focusing on the games and books. This video has given me encouragement however to start an army and try to get into the game now that I’ve seen how it works. Thank you for posting this video. Very accessible way to see the game being played.

two super symphathic guys having a great time together playing with old world! awesome video, also top notch from a technical point of view! well done, Games Workshop!

Finally had time to watch the full video. This to me symbolizes the greatest aspects of WFB: visually beautiful with great lumbering units, lots of desperate maneuvering, wild back and forth as both sides drag the advantage back to them, and a climactic centrepiece slugfest in the middle. Warhammer Fantasy, the Old World, whatever you call it - this is what got me into the hobby in 1995 and it's genuinely quite powerful to see it officially supported (I won't say 'back' per se because it never really went away) again.

Well done GW!! That was really fun to see

I have Warhammer + so have already seen it, but thank you so much for making this public! It's an awesome showcase of the Old World and I hope this encourages more people to dive into it on Saturday.

Watching this is so awesome. I miss the old world 😢

Man they’ve really got to put more videos like this for the public, people would like it so much more, like a battle report between the Necron and admech combat patrols, or whenever a big box releases

Warhammer Fantasy battle report on the official RU-vid channel of Games Workshop in 2024? Yes, come on! So happy to see my favourite setting and game resurrected and being highlighted like this.

As a Bretonnian player since the far off days of 5th edition, it's so joyous to be seeing them on the table again. At last my army can come out of retirement and take up arms once more for the glory of the Lady!

This is actually one of the best battle reps I've seen

So excited to see classic fantasy back! Excited for more content (and models!) to come.

I wish every battle report was done exactly like this

I wish every battle report was done like this! It was so fun to watch and understand what was happening and why! More of this style.

How good is it to see beautifully painted TOMB KINGS and BRETONNIAN models stage the very first fantasy comeback ? Makes my sensory pits twinge and tickle with nostalgia.

When describing the reaction of Bretonnian knights to the deaths of some peasants, "I can assure you, none of my knights care" is the best line I've ever heard.

I love the narrative added to this. SO important for games.

This was one of the best Batte Reports I've ever seen, clearly you guys had a blast making it! So happy The old world is returning!

As a newer player, it's super fascinating to see actual formations on the board.

Thank you very much for letting us view this for free. Very hyped for Old World - can't wait to try it. Also, as some feedback, if you were to do more of these battle reports on Warhammer+ (all game systems per week) it would considerably increase my likelihood of investing in it.

I’ve been smiling the whole time watching this.

This just brings me back 10 years ago, when I first fell in love with Warhammer. Thanks. A lot.

Genuinely the best fun i have had watching a report since 2019

The best tabletop game out. I really enjoyed this.

The staggeringly bad luck of Si's dice rolling really brings a nostalgic tear to my eye :D BRING ON THE OLD WORLD!

Thanks GW for bring us this battle report!

Love Fantasy Battle, never had the funds as a kid to buy the models. I've played Age of Sigmar for a while but there's always been that itch to get some units on square bases. Super glad games like Total War and Vermintide allowed me to explore the setting, and now I'm more than excited to get onto the tabletop!

I grew up in Poland in the 90's. It was right after the iron courtain fell. But, surprisingly, Games Workshop products were available quite quickly. My friend from school introduced me to the Wahammer Fantasy battle and I immediately fell in love with Orcs and Goblins. The only problem was the prices: it was way to expensive for polish teenager. I remeber that even buing a 3 pieces blister of Savage Orcs was a quite an event. Then few years down the road I had a job and I was able to buy myself models for Empire and Lizardmen. I was playing hard with my collagues from my local "Warhammer Club" but suddenly the system droped dead... Age of Sigmar was not for me, to say at least... I hid my miniatures in the closet for few, long years... Now I'm 40, I have two small kids and recently discovered that my old beloved Warhammer retuns.... You guys don't even know what a pleasure watching this report gave me... how many memories it brought back. I'm over the moon... I can't wait to introduce this game to my kids (I think they gonna love the "dinosaur army";) Cheers!

This is so good for the existing and new fantasy players. So happy to see the old models back, bolstered by new and glorious miniatures. Well done !

This was a very fun yet informative and amazingly edited video. Thanks!

Awesome video, learned how to play WHFB from nick nearly 20 years ago at warhammer world and is good to see he's not lost any entertainment value while narrating a battle. Whoever signed off on this needs a pat on the back, great bit of advertisement for the new release

Huge congrats on this guys!!! Absolutely best battle report ive seen so far. The fight was insane!! The images explaining the rules were amazing, the edits on showing targets were amazing and last but not least you have an brilliantvideographer! Easy subscription!

Absolutely loved how close that game was the whole way through. Looks like a lot of love and devotion from the team behind this has payed off, can’t wait to have my first battle in the world of legend.

Phew - two weeks gonna feel like a lifetime - For the Lady

I usually dont like battle reports, but these guys are great fun, a rollercoaster of dice rolls LOL

Already dusting of a selection of old Chaos Warriors in anticipation of their rules :)

Magnificent battle report. Thank you for posting this!

I always love the good sportsmanship in these battle reports, cheering and laughing at their triumphs and misfortunes, great to see the old world available again

Thank you for uploading this, and thank you for leaving the comments turned on

Wait, I CAN ACTUALLY COMMENT A WARHAMMER VIDEO, what a time to be alive

The good old classic game is back with some polish !

Really appreciate this as someone who wants to play again 😊

All those lovely square bases!

This was pretty good. It was great seeing Bretonnia and Tomb Kings on the tabletop again. 💚

I can just imagine the peasants from faraway watching their own Duke missing several swings, hearing one of the Knights shouting "No with the pointy end m'lord!" and thinking to themselves "We're doomed".

What a fun battle to watch! Thanks for putting this out here on RU-vid to be seen. Love the energy from Nick and Simon and thematic presentation is the cherry on the top! Awesome stuff. :)

This was the coolest battle report I’ve ever seen. So well executed, and showing off a game that I simply cannot wait for. Excited doesn’t cover it!

I was grinning like an idiot the entire time I was watching this. Great job.

I was sure I wouldn't be playing the old world but honestly the amount of fun in this battle report has me reconsidering that decision.

That was an awesome bat rep! I'm quite excited for The Old World after this!

What a fantastic battle report, a joy to watch :) Cannot believe the old Warhammer is coming back - I am sooo excited! :) Going to be buying Bretonnia - always wanted to paint that army when I was younger! :)

Nice battle report, you two are fun to watch playing.

Love it... can't wait to get back in to it ..brake out the hold of Karak Mac(Dwarfs!)

Keep this up, GW! Warhammer Fantasy needs more of this for the big revival!

Oh I really hope they do a reprint of the Fortified Manor terrain piece.

Nicks gonna need a strepsil after that intro

Can't wait to play this myself looks absolutely incredible keep up the good work

Already watched this on W+, more than happy to watch it again. So very excited for Fantasy to come back

Wow, didn't expect to have this available for all, well done Warhammer Community and thank you!

Perfect to be able to watch such official battle report on YT!

I'm so happy that WH FB is finally back.

Good god those Brettonian rolls. It was 2v1, the Brettonian dice and Tomb Kings vs Brettonia.

You actually did it ...kuddos to you Warhammer people

The lady hath abandoned this battlefield. The Dukes courage alone holds this line.

If i read the rules correctly if you have passed the fear test in your charge phase you don't have to do it once more in the fighting phase.

Amazing battle report! Such great back and forth in terms of who was leading. And both players seemed like they had a great time! Well done!

So very not boring! Its usually so slow but you did a good job of cutting it down so its always engaging! Its a first time experience for me!

Great idea putting battle reports on here, hope to see more in the future!

WHFB returns in style !

Skaven are an absolute CLASSIC fantasy army and so are the many armies that have been announced as legacy aka/neglected. These armies are beloved by so many and in every discussion about the old worlds half the people are complaining that their fav armies will be left out. Please GW reconsider this as I and I know others were excited and happy to jump on TOW train until we heard this and I for one took it out of my cart and haven’t thought twice about playing these new systems because of this decision.

This was a lot of fun to watch. Very excited about getting back into Warhammer!

It’s like coming home.

Wow, the GW team is doing excellent work on these videos. I have WH+ and watch as many of the videos as I can. Thank you for this Old World battle report!

I am very looking forward to old world. I'm glad we can see what it's like here

Oh man, this is so beutiful! Look at those ranks and banners! This is such a great format to show warhammer fantasy in. Great job everyone and keep it coming!

Amazing production value! You have a great team shooting this. And I love seeing warhammer fantasy getting some love. Subscribed because of this video

This is amazing to see after all these years!

Thanks for putting this up! :)

Good to see it back!!

I'm literally 8 years old watching this. Thanks.

it´s a dream

Wish there were more of the old factions from fantasy. But I’m just glad it’s back

Hope this becomes monthly (or more) content because this was fire

I can’t wait ! My chaos dwarf army is ready to play well almost.. awesome that y’all opened comments on the RU-vid and even cooler that you give everyone a free battle report ! Plus having epub for the old world books wow gw really is starting to listen to the community

Nice battle report. Thank you so much. Welcome back Warhammer!

Those Bretonnian dice were #unblessed

Marketing at its best. I'm good with it

Made me unreasonably happy seeing a flame template get briught out
