Warlords Of Erehwon "Science Fantasy" Beta Warband Lists
Welcome to my Warlords Of Erehwon "Science Fantasy" beta warband lists. These lists, while not official in ANY way, were built after reverse engineering the Warlords Of Erehwon points system. Because of this, these are lists should balance with the other "official" warband lists that Rick Priestley has released on his website allowing you to play against normal fantasy armies.Why "Science Fantasy?" Well, my first miniature wargaming loves involved games that mixed the genres of science fiction, fantasy and modern wargames and when Rick created Warlords Of Erehwon it was to provide players with a miniatures agnostic game system that allowed them to play with the old fantasy models in their cupboard. I still own mountains of models that fall somewhere between sci-fi and fantasy from my earliest days as a wargamer and I want to be able to dust them off and use them when playing WoE as well.
Below are basic beta warband lists for three generic tropes from that genre that will hopefully give players enough leeway to create forces using their old models. I have gone out of my way to not change a single rule in the game and all of the following lists are meant to be used in conjunction with the regular Warlords Of Erehwon ruleset. This is why, for example, psychics use magic... they are just mages under a different name.
Because I did not want to change the rules to make shooting any different but because I wanted guns to be a more viable choice in these lists, I paid the points to increase the accuracy profile of every model in every list. Additionally every ranged weapon in the lists below are based on existing weapons profiles in the normal game.
Though I have put a lot of work into constructing these lists, they are very much in the play testing phase. If you see any glaring errors or if you have any suggestions about profile changes or additional units, please let me know through the CAST DICE PODCAST Facebook page. Once these lists are finalised they will be compiled into their own PDF's for easier access.
I would like to thank Rick Priestley for creating such an interesting and fun ruleset and thank you for taking the time to read this. I really hope you enjoy!

Hello Mr Morin, I like what your doing here mate. Ive just started listening to your podcasts and am working my way through your blog back catalogue. I may be some time!
ReplyDeleteYou mention you encourage contact, I trust you don't mind this little message. I'm thoroughly enjoying your content creation and look forward to more. Wondered if you'd consider chatting on your blog/podcast about the merits demerits of Warhammer 3rd edition and Rogue Trader and compare to modern systems like WOE etc? Id find it fascinating to listen to a pro take on the subject as these games are held as such iconic standards of the genre. Yet people also claim the contemporary games are better than ever. would love to hear your thoughts one day if you are so inclined! Maybe even mention it to the esteemed Priestley!? 'Sooo Rick, tell us what you think was good about your work and not so good in the rogue trader/ warhammer 3rd will you? How does it compare to WOE?'
Little cheeky maybe.
Again love your idea of taking WOE sic-fi! keep up the good work bud.
From your silent, till now, avid listener.
