    Default Top 3 Warmahordes Resources Online!

    Hey guys. I'm working on a project in which I'm compiling the best online resources for Warmahordes. What would you say are your top 3 most visited, most useful websites? Great podcasts would be helpful too!

    There's a lot of great content out there, and I'm afraid there's a lot that I'm missing.

    These forums.
    Muse on Minis.
    Bell of Lost Souls.

    That's all I visit on a regular basis - made picking three pretty easy.

    *Cygnar*Circle*Mercs*Thornfall*Retribution*Legion*Khador
    * Malifaux Outcasts * WHFB Dark Elves * WHFB High Elves *

    Muse on Minis I hit up semi-weekly. I hit up these forums almost daily during the week. And I hit my blog, Sustained Attack (shameless self-plug ) often as well, for obvious reasons.
    I post under the moniker Red Manatee at Sustained Attack.

    The only ones I really ever go to (other than the official website & forums) are:
    Hand Cannon Online (which has lots of good articles on a wide variety of game-related topics)
    Battle College (which I usually only use to check out models I'm not familiar with when I'm at work and can't check my books)

    Great suggestions. Thanks! I hadn't seen Hand Cannon Online - looks like a great resource.

    As far as podcasts go, Chain Attack is fantastic! They do a battle report every friday between 2 new warcasters/warlocks and then rate each one. Once they've covered every warcaster/warlock in the game at 35 pts, I think they plan to do it again at 50 pts.

    Oh, and long live monpoc

    I go to Lost Hemisphere and Muse on Mini's at least daily and Handcannon Online and Steamforged probably three times a week.

    But that's four, sorry!

    I have no idea what else, there are a lot of other resources but none jump out at me. I almost want to say youtube in general.

    http://www.forwardkommander.com is a really, really great free list-builder. It's worth double checking if you're using it for a tournament (I know I heard someone say there were problems with models in a couple of theme lists, I've not run into them myself), but for experimenting and throwing together clear, easy to read lists before a game it's excellent.

    I'm just seconding several that were already mentioned:
    These forums and Handcannon Online I check daily.
    Battle College is a very good resource but not worth checking daily like a blog is.
    Muse On Minis and Lost Hemisphere are both great resources. I used to check them daily but started having trouble keeping up with all the articles. I still check them infrequently.

    #1 PP Forums (Painting, Strats, and just General discussion).
    #2 BattleCollege - Just as an easy/cheap way to look up a summary of what every model does. I might not know the actual numbers for each stat, but I know what special abilities each model will have.
    #3 Podcasts - I find that Podcasts are full of all kinds of information and it's great to see how another meta views things. I feel that Podcasts should get their own ranking so...

    Top Podcasts
    #1 - Muse on Minis: These guys put alot of work in the discussions on their podcasts....it some times may not seem it at times when they are cutting up but PhatAsain usually puts them back on track lol
    #2 - The Prime Generation: Really cool podcast to listen to and I love their lighting round question at the begining of each podcast.
    #3 - Boosted Damage: It's really cool to see how players on the other side of the sea view/deal with certain models. Also, they have alot of good info on the painting side of the hobby.

    How is the PP Forum NOT in the top 3? Infernals answering rules questions makes it a permanent winner in my book

    Hmm, there are a lot of good resources out there for the savvy privateer enthusiast. It really depends on what you're looking for, be it tactics, faction specific, a general idea for certain models, painting or battle reports.

    The ones I use the most often are:
    -Lost Hemisphere
    -Privateer Press Forums
    -Chain Attack
    -Guts n' Gears (great podcast for getting insight into the models and fluff due to privateer press interviews)
    -Prime Generation
    -Battle College (Despite its occasional quirks, I find it to be a pretty good all around wiki)
    -Forward Kommander

    2. Battle College
    3. Forward Kommander.

    If Focus and Fury would release more often, I'd top slot them. I don't see how anyone can sit through an entire episode of Guts n' Gears. Seriously.

    GK workbench is also a great mini's page.
