In this episode, we dig into two towering editions of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay — the brutally elegant 2nd Edition and the crunchy, modern 4th. What did each get right? Where do they clash? And how do design choices like Success Levels, career structure, and advancement pacing shape the game’s soul?
We explore the shift from flat percentile crunch to narrative granularity, debate the infamous d100 vs. d20 argument, and ask: does slower progression make for a better game? Whether you're a grognard or a new cult initiate, this is your guide to WFRP’s evolving engine of doom.
