July 24, 06:30 UTC
Over on Twitch this weekend, you may have come across the '
SkullsForTheSkullThrone' community, where streamers playing Warhammer titles united under one banner, and showcased games - such as Vermintide - to the wider Twitch community.
They had their own challenge running, and this morning their viewer goals got beat - and with it come some pretty neat prizes! Various studios (ourselves included) created some bespoke prizes should their goal be met. You can find the full set of creations here on the right hand side of the channel, in the sidebar:
https://www.twitch.tv/communities/skullsfortheskullthrone We will make our wallpapers available separately later in the day, but if you're keen to grab the whole set (we recommend it!) then pop by the page above!
The download is available until 30 July.
Day 3 Update:
July 23, 17:00 UTC
Well, we're at the 72 hour mark, and what have we here? You're doing it! You're actually doing it! The deficit has been defeated and the ball is now in your court! This momentum must not stop now - the goal is so close.
With 24 hours left, just a quick and easy ~25mill rats stand between you and some pretty neat headwear!
Day 2 Update:
July 22, 17:00 UTC
We're 48 hours in - half way there! And heroes… you're just short of half the goal…
47,688,230 is a lot of dead rat-men, and we applaud you for your efforts thus far - really, but these hats aren't going to earn themselves!
Step it up. Make the rest of the day and Sunday count! You've work to do, now get to it!
Day 1 Update:
July 21, 17:00 UTC
It has been a solid 24 hours since the count began, and my my, you've been busy killing Skaven, haven't you!
23,123,460 to be precise.
Just think about that for a moment.
23,123,460 Skaven have been torn asunder, blown to pieces, pinned to pillars and burnt to a crisp by your hands. In just 24 hours!
That's incredible!
Yes, you might be
slightly behind the curve, but the weekend is coming and we have every faith in your abilities! So what're you doing here? Get back out there – the throne demands it!

Q: Do bot kills count?
A: Sure do, they are heroes after all!
Q: Which missions can we run?
A: Any of them - so long as you're killing Skaven!
Q: Yeah, but what about playing on Easy?
A: Sure, if you want - this is open to any and all!
Q: And what if we fail the mission?
A: Doesn't matter, kills are counted the moment they happen. Win or lose, they count!
Q: Does Last Stand count?
A: Absolutely!
Q: Is it the Skulls that count or just the kills?
A: Just the kills. (the Skulls are for the Skull Throne!)
Q: What if we run out of rats?
A: You won't, we promise. We have a really large supply. Huge. The best.
Q: Do Ogre Rats count as one? or two?
A: Just one. We know, they're stitched together abominations, but they do just count as one. Sorry.
Q: What if we don't make it?
A: Don't let that happen.

A: Pretty much immediately. You may need to close and re-launch the game if you're still playing, however.
Q: But really, if we do actually fall short, what happens then?
A: You want a CUDDLE? This is Vermintide.
