For this weeks #TeamTuesday we hear from another of C7's incredibly talented artists - JG O'Donoghue. We recently revealed some of JG's amazing art for our upcoming release WFRP Rough Nights & Hard Days and we look forward to sharing more very soon!

My interest in fantasy art started as a pre teen when I saw the cover of The Hobbit, I was just blown away by the majesty of the idyllic nature and I still remember it to this day. I didn’t actually read Tolkien until my parents locked me in my brothers attic room to study for my final school exams (The Leaving Cert) and I found his copy of The Lord of the Rings. As one can imagine I didn’t do very well in the Leaving Cert, but what a great book!

I currently work for Cubicle 7 as a staff artist. My arts entire purpose is to be the hand for the leg up and over the wall for your imagination, as you wonder through our amazing deep fantasy worlds. Before this, I spent many years working in archaeological illustration, reconstructing heritage

We hope that by now you are getting into our weekly WFRP blog posts by C7 writer Ben Scerri. If you've missed any, you can catch up on our blog anytime. As always we would love to hear your feedback on our Facebook and Twitter  pages. For now,  let's get stuck into blog number 6!

Hello, everyone! My name is Ben, and I’m here to discuss the most diminutive yet least disparageable (despite popular belief) Species currently available during Character Creation: the Halflings! There are a few misconceptions concerning Halflings online, and I’m here to clear these up. The focus today is the Size rules on page 341 of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Core rulebook. For many, what I discuss here will be obvious; but for some, it will come as a surprise. So, grab your best Rumster's pie and settle into your comfy chair, and let's talk Halflings!

Technically Small

All Halflings, at Character Creation, get the Small Talent (page 145). This means the Size rules in the Bestiary (page

It's #WarhammerWednesday time here at Cubicle 7 and that means another super WFRP post from C7 writer Ben Scerri! This week its all about Creatures! Let us know on Facebook and Twitter how you create Creatures for your games — and definitely regale us with stories of your own twisted creations! If you missed Ben's previous posts, settle in and catch up on post one, two, three and four now.

It’s that time again! Hey folks, I’m Ben Scerri, and I am Excited™ to jump back on my soapbox and wax lyrical about all things WFRP! This time around, I’m going to poke my head into the Bestiary, and I’ll explain the various methods I used to create Creatures for every WFRP occasion. Let’s begin!

Four Ways to Skin a Monster(ous Cat)

Whilst the Bestiary in the core book comes with a bunch of options — enough, really, for MANY sessions of play — there’s one truth that rings out the Old World over...you can never have too many monsters! But endless reams of Creatures

This week we have legendary Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay game designer Graeme Davis taking us through his journey with WFRP and his current work with Cubicle 7. We hope this makes you all as excited as we are here at C7 for whats to come in 2019!

Hello, everyone!

My name’s Graeme Davis, and I’m proud to say I’ve been involved with WFRP since the very beginning.

In early 1986, I was a not-terribly-successful graduate student at Durham University in England, researching prehistoric burial practices and spending far too much time playing AD&D, Call of Cthulhu, and Bushido. I had been writing articles for White Dwarf since 1982 – my first, in issue 32, was an AD&D subsystem for drug addiction, but then it was the early 80s! – as well as for the short-lived Imagine magazine published by TSR UK, the British arm of D&D’s original publishers. But 150 miles south, in Nottingham, events were in motion that would change my whole life.

Games Workshop’s early success

This week we want to introduce one of C7's incredible artists, Sam, who has created many amazing pieces for Cubicle 7 over the years. If you are a WFRP fan, you will certainly recognise some of the artwork below. We are really looking forward to Sam's work on the upcoming Age of Sigmar RPG. #TEAMTUESDAY

Hi! I'm Sam, tea-drinker and illustrator at Cubicle 7. I'm currently working on Age of Sigmar, having previously provided artwork for C7 for Cthulhu Tales, World War Cthulhu, Cthulhu Britannica, The Laundry, Lone Wolf, the Doctor Who Card Game, The One Ring, Adventures in Middle-earth, and WFRP. As a kid, Warhammer in particular had a huge impact on me - I played the game, but was really drawn into the world through the amazing artwork.

I'm a self-taught digital artist, and as well as that - and time allowing - I enjoy working in oil and scribbling with ink. My second love and hobby, I guess, is working with spray cans and stencils. I don't get

Hello again, folks! Today we’re talking setting expectations in WFRP — that’s right, we’re doing a little Gamemaster advice! The rulebook is full of mechanics, stories, hooks, monsters, spells, careers, trappings… EVERYTHING you might need to run a game. But today I want to talk a little about starting a game, so that’s where we’re going to jump in right now.

‘Nobody expects the Estalian Inquisition… but they sure as Sigmar should expect your game sessions!’

A good campaign will begin by setting expectations (especially in reference to what you should expect from the setting

Last week we brought you part one in our new series of WFRP Blog posts. If you missed it you can catch up here. Today, Cubicle 7 writer Ben Scerri is looking at Success Levels. Join the chat over on Facebook and Twitter and let us know what you think! 

Hi, folks! It’s Ben again. The Old World is a brutal place, where it’s a struggle just to get by, and all-too-often you’re only winning because someone else is losing more than you… So today, I’m going to tackle something very core to the game: Success Levels!

Hang in there, buddy.

Success Levels (SL) come up in three main areas of play: Dramatic Tests, Opposed Tests, and specifically Opposed Tests in Combat. Let’s begin at the beginning, shall we?

Success Levels in Dramatic Tests

Sometimes it’s not good enough to know if you merely succeed or fail, and we need to know how much of a fool (or, Sigmar help us, a hero) you made of yourself. In these instances, we use Dramatic Tests. The Test follows the same

Hi folks, I’m Ben, a writer on Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition — and I’m here to do my very favourite thing: talk about WFRP! It’s been a joy to see everyone dive deep into the new edition with such gusto. So let’s wade in, sword swinging and… hmm...

If we are fighting, I should really use something to defend myself with, right? Should I parry with my hand weapon, get myself a shield (and then, what size?) or should I pick up a specialist parrying weapon? And it looks like I’m not the only looking to find the best way to muck in, 4th Edition has given us more options than ever before to defend ourselves —
