Bad Roll Games Reveal New Fantasy Wargame, Warmonger!
January 2, 2025 by brennon
Bad Roll Game, the Spanish company behind the excellent 30mm skirmish game Punkapocalyptic, has released the first early look at their brand new game, Warmonger. "A fierce fight in the grim surroundings of the Unholy Lands", Warmonger's rules are available now alongside the first few sneak peeks at miniatures sculpted by the awesome Boris Woloszyn.
Warmonger // Bad Roll Games
First up, what is Warmonger? It uses the core mechanics of Punkapocalyptic with what Bad Roll Games is now calling the Punka System. Both games also share the same universe where the land has been so deformed and warped by the atomic fallout that it has opened a portal to a dark, twisted Stone Age. Think of this as a post-apocalyptic sword and sorcery setting.
Boris Woloszyn Concept // Warmonger
It draws on influences like Primal, Tygra and Shadow Of The Beast (the video game trilogy) and is seriously 80s in its vibe and design. As you can see by the concept work here, it has a very distinct feel and style to it that Boris' miniatures slot very nicely into. You can find out more about the lore and background of Warmonger HERE.

As well as the concept art, we've also got a look at one of the first miniatures for the Warmonger range. The Harpy miniature below was sculpted by Diego Blanco based on the work by Boris Woloszyn and it's looking as wild as you'd imagine!

Now, whilst this is all very intriguing it should be noted that the rules and resources for Warmonger are only available in Spanish at the moment. You can find the rules HERE as well as a Quick Reference Sheet, Spell Cards and Doom Rune Cards (sounds very cool) so you can start playing. Hopefully, we'll see some translated rules pop up later on down the line but it makes sense that currently, the game is just a Spanish Beta.
As a fan of Boris Woloszyn and new games in general, it will be fun to see where Bad Roll Games goes with Warmonger. I'd love to read the rules and learn more about the background of the world too. Punkapocalyptic is considered an excellent game so I have high hopes for Warmonger.
Are you intrigued by Warmonger?

I have a feeling Gerry will be spending a lot of money very soon! The concepts are very unique and proprietary. I will read the rules for sure, but I doubt I will get into the game for this year.
He’ll get review samples and *then* he’ll spend money 😉
LOL
We waiting for you 😀 or we sending barbarians on fur bikinis to looking for you….with love, of course!
The rulebook will be translated into English in approximately a couple of months.
I told you XDDD
Excellent to hear 🙂
I’ve tried their beta and its a very agile, deadly and fun game. Played the my games in full in 1h 30′ give or take. Playing it at 400 points you use about 10 miniatures.
The gaming system seems quite solid taking everything they’ve learned from Punkapocalyptic (wich I recommend) and giving it a twist with new interesting mechanics that make it familiar, but different at the same time.
Keep an eye on it guys!
Count with the english version! This game is the creature from marcos and Isra, and marcos between others things like partner and friend is the traductor of all products from badroll to english 😀 ( he was one of the eberron traductors to spanish) At the begining i dont want to enter on this game, but we go months on patreon and hype overwhelming me each day XD, its brutal, the idea is like frostgrave or one page rule, play with all you want on dark postapocalyptic heavy metal Madness fantasy realm, all my mordheim collection found and new home… Read more »
