So, the search for the Eldritch Fortress and the hammer Ghal Maraz continues. The Bleak Horde have been kicked out of the ruined city of Elixia, but the Stormcasts are really no closer to their goal and have to move on. However, they now have some help…


The Story So Far
After the battle in Elixia, the Stormcasts managed to placate Celemnis, the Silver Maiden turned Banshee, and for eight days she stayed with them, leading their army out of the ruined city to the Argent Falls, a massive waterfall that ran with liquid silver, dropping down from the Great Crucible, a massive floating island/country/continent in the sky of Chamon. Here, they found a shattered hamlet, in the centre of which was a Dragonfate Dais.

Celemnis pointed at the dais meaningfully, then disappeared, leaving the Stormcasts to stand around scratching their heads, figuring out what they should do next.

Unfortunately for them, their progress had been monitored, and the daemonic Lord of Change Kairos Fateweaver saw that Sigmar’s soldiers were getting a bit too close to his ultimate plans for Ghal Maraz. The greater daemon therefore made a deal with a Skaven Warlord who had a reasonable force at his disposal but was a little down on his luck. If the Warlord stopped the Stormcasts, Kairos would make him leader of all Skaven in the territory.

Another great report. Also, might I ask where you got that mat from and it's name, its an amazing design its got and its name is slipping my mind.

It's the old Cities of Death paper mat they released back in the day.

That's the one!

It needs scenery to be strategically placed for Age of Sigmar (to hide the more technological things), and its edges are looking a bit ragged - think I'll have to replace it with one of the Gamemat.eu ones...
