It only makes sense to review the Beastmen next because, in short, they are what the Warriors of Chaos should have been. On some levels they are quite similar in that both are melee focussed factions with monsters and mages to offer support. But the key difference is that the Beastmen are capable of bringing...

Tribunal Part 1 – An Elder Scrolls Story
From out of RetirementBloodmoon happened a long time ago now. The beautiful, blood-shot-eyed protagonist, Rosai, saved the island of Solthsteim from being the hunting grounds of Hircine and his werewolves by defeating his spirit in battle. Afterwards, she returned to her duties in the town of Raven Rock to live a quiet life away from... Continue Reading →
Total War Warhammer II – The ‘Wrecking Ball’ Faction Review
So, after reviewing the Empire I figured their arch nemesis, the Warriors of Chaos, would be a fitting next faction to review. In a regular campaign you can optionally enable a chaos invasion which will spawn a bunch of massive armies to wreck the north of the map in the late game. Your job is... Continue Reading →

Total War Warhammer II – The ‘Normal’ Faction Review
I wasn't really happy with my original review of Warhammer II due to how much I left out, but also didn't want the post to be years long due to just how in-depth the experience can be and how different each faction plays from the next. So I decided to write a couple of more... Continue Reading →
Fun Games
So, uh, where you at? Seriously, a problem I've found specifically in AAA gaming at the moment - at least in the genre of games I am interested in - is that they haven't been very fun lately. And I know exactly why; developers want you to play their games in an obsessively specific way... Continue Reading →
Cookie Clicker Review – A Deep Dive Into Insanity
Hello, my name is Alex and I am addicted to Cookie Clicker. It all began in 2017. I was in sixth form and I didn't like studying between classes, I liked playing mobile games. Subway Surfer and Jetpack Joyride were my go to games. But one day I happened upon a new game. A game... Continue Reading →
