Never been a true chaos fun, anyway remember when saw this exact model played agains my beloved greenskinz. This page explain the feeling before the battle: it didn’t explain Chaos – it warned you about it.

The promise on this page was huge: one box, a whole regiment. No more scavenging blisters. For younger hobbyists, this felt like the gates being thrown wide open.

“There is no such thing as too many tanks.” That quote at the bottom of the Crushing Fist page lived rent-free in my head for years. This was the moment Epic taught us how Guard wars were really fought.

Would love to see this beauty comes to life ❤️
Rick Priestley’s words on this page made Chaos feel vast and unknowable. New rules, new cards, new magic.
“Corrupted in form and tainted by madness” stuck with me. This pages sold Chaos as a mindset, not just an army choice.

Those Desert World examples on this page were hobby gold. Bubonic Brown, washes, drybrush – suddenly your tanks matched the table and felt right. We all copied this.

I miss Campaing Packs so much: they sold the idea that scenery mattered. Buildings weren’t decoration – they were objectives, stories, and excuses to fight again next week.

This page taught me the joy of artillery parks. Long barrels, missile racks, overlapping fire zones – it felt like real military planning, not just a game. Peak Epic-era Guard thinking.
(like you can understand, i LOVE epic40k)

"Chronicle of Blood" was one of many battle report on 90's WD. This time, it’s the Dwarfs’ turn to stand their ground and defend the world from the relentless advance of Chaos.
Just look at that gorgeous red 😍
Zodgrod Wortsnagga was such a weird, brilliant character. Part Runtherd, part mad scientist. I always wanted an excuse to field more Gretchin just because of him.

I always loved how Eavy Metal treated Beastmen like true Chaos warriors, not background troops. Rich reds, blacks, and bronzes everywhere. You could smell the paint pots.

“What’s this realistic sh*t?? More red pls” 😂
Let’s go back to the glorious Red Period — when everything was louder, bloodier, and, overall RED!
Those Gutter Runners on this page look fast. Lean poses, raised fists, barely touching the ground. This page sold Skaven speed better than any rule ever could.

The Culexus write-up on this page felt genuinely unsettling. Anti-psyker horror, blanks, and psychological warfare. It read like something the Imperium shouldn’t even admit exists.

I loved how this page mixed Orcs and Goblins without apology. Big, brutal muscle next to sneaky madness. It captured the army’s internal chaos perfectly.
And in the right-bottom of the page you can see the model that made me love Greenskinz <3

The Ork biker on this page sold the whole setting in one glance. Speed, dakka, and zero concern for safety. Gorkamorka felt like Mad Max through a green lens.

I’m going mad finding some old goodies on eBay 😂 old empio models are going to broke me (at least my finance)
The super-heavies on this page hit differently as a kid. Baneblades and Shadowswords lined up like candy in a shop window. I can still remember tracing which one I’d buy “next” (planning tons of purchases with my little pocket money 😂 )

All right, the break is over. On this catalogue spread, the Brets Questing Knights ride out in full heraldic madness. Champions, banners, trumpets – it all felt impossibly grand back then. This page sold me on Bretonnia long before rules ever did.

Last DoW unit showed: The Birdmen of Catrazza
This page felt wild back then. Flying mercenaries with bows? Pure Dogs of War madness, and we loved every inch of it.
The Birdmen didn’t just fight—they swooped.

Third DoW unit revealed: Golgfag Maneater’s Mercenary Ogres .
I think I might still have a few of these minis stashed away somewhere… assuming they escaped my parents, who could very well have given them to some younger cousin because I was obviously “too old to still be playing with toy soldiers.”

Before YouTube tutorials, we had pages like this. The How to Paint Dark Eldar guide was studied, reread, and probably splattered with paint.

Second unit of DoW showed: Braganza’s Besiegers
Alan Perry sculpted so much character into these models. This page shows why the Besiegers felt heavier and tougher than most infantry.

Any other nostalgic retro gamer out there?
Just discovered @retroachievements.org. My life will never be the same again 🫶🏻
This page perfectly captures early 40K’s practical mindset: adapt, don’t replace. Rules change, models endure.
Seems like today' philosophy, right? /s
#Oldhammer #Warhammer #GamesWorkshop #40K #spacemarines #bloodangels
Leopold’s Leopard Company—this page was Dogs of War at its finest. Ranked pikes, proud banners, and Tilean attitude packed into one glorious spread.
I'll share someother DoW minis in the future - I love them

Chainswords, greatcoats, and ice-world bases—this Army Painting page showed Valhallans at their grimmest. Hard not to hear the crunch of snow just looking at it.

You really should mate!
(And overall you really should be sharing some photos with us showing how the project is coming along)
