The version everybody wants is Snotchosen, four champions of Nurgle beating each other silly.

I'll actually play that using the more gladiatorial Nurgle minis I've built already and will do in the future. The only question is if I can put in the effort to photoshop Nurgle-themed cards and a mouldy swamp arena.

So what does that make the Slaanesh version . Is that keys in the middle bowl or something???

Isn't Snotchosen about four Snotling Champions?

The Slaanesh version would be just a game of Marco Polo lol. That or 50 Shades of (Slaanesh) Grey lol.

I'm even quite tempted...and I'm not an AoS player, and I also don't particularly like the aesthetic of khorne bloodbound stuff...

I just love the concept of (basically) warhammer pro-wrestling!

The Slaanesh version rhymes with Fourchosen, duh

Who says Snotlings can't worship the jolly grandfather But, yes, Snotchosen can also refer to the travel edition of the game festuring* Snotlings brawling in a DVD case. The one with the hammer from the Doomdiver catapult always wins, though.

Edit: *this stays because it's an awesome typo

I'm so so sorry, but I have too...

Nurgle's game is obviously....

Let me apologize once more...

Boogorchosen.

- Gorechosen
- Warpchosen
- Blightchosen
- Moistchosen
- Ratchosen
- Beastchosen
- Bullchosen
- Bonechosen
- Courtchosen
- Ghostchosen
- Fangchosen
- Orrukchosen
- Waaghchosen
- Ironjawsen
- Grotchosen
- Moonchosen
- Arachnarockchosen

- Frostchosen

- Magechosen
- Lorechosen
- Templechosen
- Lionchosen
- Dragonchosen
- Swiftchosen
- Scourgechosen
- Wychchosen
- Covenchosen
- Shadowchosen
- Serpentchosen
- Woodchosen

Okay, now the word chosen has lost all meaning to me...

As long as the contained miniatures are labelled as Citadel Finechosen (tm).

I like Ironjawsen

A guy on youtube (Bad Dice Podcast) has a copy to review and is quite positive about the game. Don't know him, but it seems genuine. If not, well, the video has a bit more info on gameplay and the components as well, so one can make up one's own mind.

I will order it as a bday present for myself (and if nobody wants to buy it off me to gift it back to me, well, I won't have to wait until mid October to open it )

I've seen several positive early reviews. Turns out this is more than just a 50% discount bundle. It's actually a competent (and fun) boardgame.

Secondary note:

I noticed from the blog posts about Gorechosen in the web store that one of the bloggers was using the Exalted Deathbringer w/ Impaling Spear. Also, one of the player models they posted to promote the game is a Bloodsecrator. It seems there are going to be rules for other models.

The video I was talking about shows the character pages for four more heroes that are in the manual: Hackblade SP, Bloodstoker, Bloodsecrator, Impaling Sp(e)artan dude

Which is great because one of my WD freebie SPs is already converted into a spear fighter and I have the two starter set chars, so I have all four. I just need to scrathchbuild/convert those two special chars from WD because I don't like their models (axeflails, ugh, and Valkiya is too busy, IMO).

got my copy of Gorechosen. Wont get to play til tomorrow but figured id mention some stuff..

The board is two sided so that gives variation.

The book also has stats for spear guy, whip guy, free guy in the sept dwarf, and skull portal guy.

Has a few optional rules as well like 2v2 king of the hill, 1v1 drafting and time limits.

You misnamed one.

Whip guy = Bloodstoker

Skull portal = Bloodsecrator

Bah! I am not enough of a khorne fan to remember.

Either way, I am glad they have a decent enough spread of characters for some repeat games.

Got my copy. Had a quick run through of the rules, very well put together, simple but fun and with enough depth to stop it being a one play bored game.

I can see myself homebrewing alot of scenarios/campaigns ect for it.

Yeah,
Picked mine up today as a fun paint project.

Quality of all the bits is a great.
Solid double sided board.
Regular dice
4 character models
Good card stock used for cards and tokens

(My board was scratched on one side, I've emailed GW and I think they are going to replace it )


The box has a plastic inlay with spaces for all the components and spots for assembled miniatures which is thoughtful and nice.
Rules seem tight, looking forward to playing (ONLY after they are painted! I'm not a heathen!)

Does anyone know what these are?

Tentacle teeth pits or
Tentacle teeth obstacles?
The rule book clarifies the other side of the boards pits/obstacles.


Will do a quick hobby blog for progress once I start
Quick like my Lost patrol one

Panic...

Reminds me of the Scarrlac Pit in Return of the Jedi.

Think they are obstacles so not pits. But really its your game so you could call them pits or treat them like pits to make it more deadly.

Played it twice.Its pretty fun for what it is. nothing game changing but its pretty light and easy to run through without much set up or effort. I will highly recommend though marking the characters direct front and painting a line or so to show it as it really matters in the game.

The game is average, which says a lot for the normal GW board game. Really gets boring once you get down to 2 characters.

If you don't care about sigmar models it loses a ton of its usefulness.

I have all the characters except Valkia. I used the second priest with big axe (got one in silver tower expansion) to make one with a spear.

Looking forward to play!!

Played the game pretty much all day Saturday. It's definitely better with four players, but two can still be a lot of fun. Fair warning, the Bloodsecrator can be pretty nasty.

Now if only there was a Beastmen version called Boarchosen.

I think you mean Ungorchosen.

Wayland has it still for preoder? Wut?

I hope my copy comes before my birthday :(

He's equally nasty in AoS. My brother's fething murdered most of my Stormcast on his own in one game!

Loving the box layout too. They've clearly given this game some thought! Some minis storage in there is awesome.

It is fun indeed

"Atorg Bloodbringer (page 14)

Atorg's Kill Zone diagram is incorrect – it should be three dark blue hexes, showing the three hexes in his front arc. In other words, his Kill Zone is identical to Vexnar the Reaper's."
which will be released soon as an errata.
Hope that helps.

This was surprisingly fun.
