Games Workshop says they are an elite formation of warrior women, equally skilled with bow and blade, and able to wield Ice Magic – Kislev’s unique, home-grown sorcery. Four months later, it confirmed that the Old World would explore Kislev a little more than previous editions, and teased a brand new unit: the Ice Guard. The fact that Creative Assembly made playable factions out of Norsca and the Vampire Coast, both of which have less material than Kislev, always meant it was only a matter of time before the Empire’s grumpy neighbour got its turn.Ġ:34: In November 2019 I lost absolutely all of my marbles for a short, traumatic spell after Games Workshop confirmed that it would relaunch Warhammer Fantasy – which it blew up and replaced with Age of Sigmar, but upon which Total War: Warhammer is based – as Warhammer: The Old World.

It’s a cold, harsh land full of cold, harsh people, sometimes scorned by the Empire as savages, but as the first line of defence against Chaos the rest of the world owes them a debt.
Warhammer’s analogue of Russia, Kislev borders the Empire to its north and thus is the first place to get reamed whenever the hordes of Chaos in the north pole decide to beat up someone other than themselves. It seems likely its occupants have fallen in a recent battle.Ġ:33: Lots of snow and furry hats: yep, this is definitely Kislev.
We open with a cart full of corpses being drawn across a snowy field, a trail of blood following in its wake. We cut to a wider shot, showing a military camp on the horizon as another body is heaved onto the cart.
