    (Video) How To Homebrew 11 - Daemon Hosts

    *Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode of Writing Homebrew, we explore how to create your own Daemon Host, from choosing the Chaos power behind it to building its forces and establishing its identity. We'll look at single-god and multi-god hosts, powerful daemonic commanders, rivalries between competing powers, summoning rituals, mortal allies, relics and the ambitions that drive these forces into realspace. Whether you're creating a host devoted to one of the four Chaos Gods or an unusual alliance of daemons serving several powers, we'll cover how to bring it all together into a distinctive force with its own history, characters and purpose.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

    (Video) How To Homebrew 10: Traitor Guard

    *Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode of Writing Homebrew, we explore how to create your own Traitor Guard, renegade armies, Chaos militias and cults. We'll look at two approaches: starting with an existing Imperial regiment and exploring how it fell to Chaos, or building from the ground up as a small cult that grows into an armed militia and eventually a full military force. Along the way, we'll cover recruitment, equipment, leadership, life under Chaos, corruption, allies and battlefield doctrine, while looking at common homebrew mistakes and how to avoid them. Whether you're creating a rebellious militia or an entire army serving the Ruinous Powers, this episode will help you build a force with a believable history and its own identity.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

    (Video) How To Homebrew 9: Heretic Astartes (Live)

    *Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode of Writing Homebrew, we explore how to create your own Heretic Astartes warband, from its gene-seed and Legion heritage to the events that drove it to betray the Imperium. We’ll examine the reasons Space Marines fall to Chaos, their allegiance to the Ruinous Powers, their warlords, culture, recruitment, resources and combat doctrine. Along the way, we’ll cover common homebrew mistakes and explain how to build a warband with a believable history, meaningful weaknesses and an identity beyond corrupted armour and daemonic weapons. Whether your warriors are ancient veterans of the Traitor Legions or renegades who have only recently abandoned the Emperor, this episode will help you create a force that feels at home in the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

    (Video) How To Homebrew 8 - Knight Houses

    *Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*Imperial Knights are more than giant war machines. They are ancient noble houses with their own worlds, dynasties, religions, traditions, rivalries and oaths. In this episode of Writing Homebrew, we break down how to create your own Knight House from the ground up, starting with its homeworld and feudal society before building its dynasty, beliefs, pilots, heraldry, combat doctrine and legendary Knights. We’ll also explore the three major directions a House can take, whether it serves the Imperium, is closely aligned with the Mechanicum or has fallen to Chaos, and how that allegiance can shape everything from its religion to its politics and warfare. By the end, you’ll have everything you need to create a Knight House that feels like a living civilization rather than just a collection of giant war machines.Knight House Builderhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1uapi1IkqKgoSUFDMai6uURSG0b_M32AJ94G9SxZKkgA/edit?usp=sharing Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k
