A monthly podcast focusing on the lore of the sprawling Warhammer Old World universe. With tongues firmly in cheeks we will help you to separate ghouls from goblins, snotlings from skaven stormfiends, and bonesplitters from beastclaw raiders ... this last pair was a test, they’re from Age of Sigmar and not Warhammer. See? Laying Down The Lore is the podcast you didn’t even know you needed! Join Ben and Cral, a couple of self-confessed Warhammer noobs, as they journey into a fantasy institution guided by ageing fanboy Darren as he attempts to distill and summarise 30 years worth of Warhammer knowledge into bite-sized chunks. Informative, irreverent, and largely irrelevant, Laying Down The Lore will come to be your indispensable guide to the world of Warhammer Old World.

In this episode we start with the collapse of the polar gates that sent the world into turmoil! We examine its impact, especially on the Elves of Ulthuan (it’s their episode after all) and their reaction to it. We see the rise of Aenarion and rule as the first Phoenix king and his war to save the world resulting in his BFF Caledor creating the Great Vortex. We then turn our gaze to the rule of his successor the great coloniser Bel-Shanaar. We then dissect the travels, alliances, and discoveries of Malekith. Ulthuan’s greatest adventurer. We close out with the fall of Ulthuan and the rise of the Cults of Excess.
