Hello all!

We're Auroch Digital, developers of the Games Workshop-licensed Chainsaw Warrior, based on the cult-classic board game from the late 80s, its sequel 'Chainsaw Warrior: Lords of the Night', and the upcoming Dark Future: Blood Red States, another board game adaptation.

We'll have lots to share about the eagerly anticipated Dark Future: Blood Red States over the coming months, and you can keep up to date with all things Chainsaw Warrior and Dark Future via our mailing list, our Facebook and Twitter feeds, and the Dark Future: Blood Red States and Chainsaw Warrior blogs.

We'll be limiting our activity in here to major announcements, reveals, competitions and such, and will refrain from spamming. If you have any questions or feedback, don't hesitate to contact me on jake@aurochdigital.com

Right now, we have a competition running to win this beautiful box canvas print of the classic 2nd edition 40K cover by John Blanche.



The canvas is 30" x 20" and is a great piece of gaming history. To win it, send a Chainsaw Warrior-themed Haiku (no limit on submissions!) to Jake. More info available here!

Thanks all! Look forward to hearing from you

Ah good, welcome aboard

As you're here now I'll lock the poem thread we have running and we'll use this thread.

May the gods have mercy on all those who post in her.

or something.

Makes sense, thanks RedS8n!

We have a winner! Huge congratulations to De Selby, who wins the amazing 30" x 20" canvas print of the 2nd Edition 40K cover art!

Hello all!


We started our foray into weekly Twitch streaming last Friday, and plan to push on today with Chainsaw Warrior: Lords of the Night!

During this stream, there will be a full playthrough of the game, plus Peter will be reading out a selection of entries to our Haiku competition. If the combination of 80s pulp action overlaid with Japanese poetry is your thing (which it obviously is) then join us at https://www.twitch.tv/aurochdigital.

We'll be kicking off at 4.30 UK Time (08:30 PDT / 11:30 EDT / 17:30 CEST), and we'll also be running our weekly competition to win a key for the game. So don't be shy , come say hello!

Be sure to follow us so you're notified when the streaming begins!

The Dark Future: Blood Red States Steam page is now live!
You can wishlist the game here, which will keep you up-to-date with the latest developments from the game, and will also update you when we confirm a release date.

You can also join in with other people keen to know more about the game in the Steam forums, talking tactics, discussions about the game, development updates, competitions and more.

We'd love to hear from you so don't hesitate if you have any questions, want to show off your old Dark Future miniatures, or have any thoughts on our adaptation.

Thanks!

The Steam page has now been updated with brand new screenshots from within Unreal Engine 4! Check out the link above for these, as well as a video which demonstrates some of the scientific research and principles that have shaped the development of the game.

Experts include scientists from the University of East Anglia, who consulted with us on the threats the world faces today that could result in the bleak setting of the game, plus celebrated games writer and Black Library novelist James Swallow, whose expertise was invaluable when developing the themes and narrative of the game!
