CWF Game Cast

Continuing from Part 1, here is the conclusion to the Q&A session with Warvault Owner Angron.

CWF: What got you into gaming?

Ang: My cousin, when I was about 7. He was… well, some age older than me, and played 2nd ed 40k. I learnt the rules, the fluff, got into Tyranids… then Marines, then Orks, then everyone else until I finally hit my army, Chaos. I’ve been playing ever since Dark Millenium.

CWF: What game systems do you play and what armies do you play in each system?

Ang: Chaos, Eldar, Witch Hunters and Daemonhunters in 40k, Dark Elves and Khornate Chaos Mortals in Fantasy. I’ve been toying with Dark Age and Confrontation for a while, as well as owning a copy of the ST rulebook, sent to me for free courtesy of Mongoose Publishing. Only time stops me!

CWF: What are some of the game companies WV hooked up with?

Ang: We’re officially endorsed by Rackham, well on the way with Mongoose… working with North Star Games’s Projekt X, Privateer Press, Dark Age Games, and Red Star Games (Andy Chambers’ solo company, now defunct).

Disclaimer - This Q&A session was held with Warvault.net owner, Angron, on 7/30/06. It has been split into two postings due to its length. In the belief of full disclosure please note that I have known Angron for years. Additionally, wargamingforums.com is a member of Warvault.net (henceforth called WV) and I have and continue to be a member of other forums that members of WV also belong to. Lastly, until several months ago I was a Mongoose Infantryman doing demos for Mongoose Publishing (MGP). I no longer am affiliated with MGP.

CWF: The online gaming community has buzz on a project called Warvault. What is Warvault?

Ang: I could be here for hours trying to explain it all, but the simple term we’ve always used is a ‘next generation database’. Warvault is a toplist for all miniatures sites, be they fansites, forums, blogs, companies or online stores. With two toplists, forums, and all sorts of gubbinz, Warvault hopes basically to be the hub of minis on the net

CWF: If I may put words in your mouth, Warvault is combining all the traditional online venues into a single location from which visitors can access a diverse array of gaming related communities. Is that correct?

Ang: That seems like a suitably apt way of describing Warvault. I’ve never been good at rounding my thoughts down into such a concise statement, but you’re pretty much spot on.

CWF: How long have you been involved with WV?

Ang: I’ve been with Warvault since early September 2005, as the co-creator of the project and admin all the way through. I’ve owned Warvault since May 2006.

CWF: Who was your co-creator in September 2005?

Ang: The co-creator, and essentially ‘lead-designer’, was Brannick, one of the old Chiefs from Imperial Literature (indeed, he gave up his ImpLit position to focus on Warvault). He came up with the idea of Warvault in the first place, though it must be said his original design differed a whole lot to the WV we know and love now.
