We have been playing through the Clash of Wills campaign in the General’s Handbook (the Tree Campaign detailed within), and we have arrived at the final battle!

The Skaven of the Blackblood Weald have suffered two calamitous defeats at the hands of the minions of the Vampire Lord Helmut von Drakenspyre, and are now very much on the back foot. To make matters worse, von Drakenspyre himself is taking command away from the hands of his flunkies (first a Wight King and then his Vampire Queen on board her Coven Throne) and is taking to the battlefield himself atop his faithful Zombie Dragon, Rattles.



Into the Realm of Fire
The Skaven have been pushed right back through their Realmgate and so this fight takes place within the Realm of Fire. Missile weapons catch fire here (not relevant to the Undead, though the Skaven may benefit), and the Skaven are trying to hastily build their defence line so not all units may be available to them at the start of the battle. For their part, von Drakenspyre can opt to send a single unit on a flank march to hit the Skaven unawares.

Other than that, it is a straight fight to the death! If the Skaven manage to win this battle, they will have yanked the iron out of the fire as they smash von Drakenspyre’s main army and (maybe) finish off the Vampire Lord himself. However, if the Undead win, it will be a campaign victory to them!

Well, who'd have thunk it?

Great battle report as always, Matt!

Looks like this time the Skaven gave the butt-whoopin'!

As for that bit of text right at the end, I don't exactly know what you're talking about when referring to the new weapon. We'll just have to wait and see, eh?

That Verminlord really rallied the troops to end the undead advance!! Even beheaded the vampire himself!!! What a trophy to hang! Maybe take a random vampire head bit and put it on a spike in a later batrep next to the skavens lair?

I really enjoy your Age of Sigmar battle reports and reviews of the various books.
