Long years have passed since the wolfships of Frydaal the Chainmaker were first carried across the Sea of Claws by the snow-laden winds of winter. The Wolves of the Sea brought violence and death to the north-eastern corner of Westerland, leaving only ruin in trade for all that they took. Since then, the Marauder tribes have returned each year, growing only stronger and bolder with the passage of time.
This supplement ventures into the frigid cold of the Shadowlands to further explore the culture and beliefs of the Marauder Tribes, the innumerable warriors that clamour to fight alongside mighty Chaos Warlords. Along with additional ways to play your Chaos-worshipping barbarians, there are Path to Glory rules that let you grow an army of any faction into a mighty force over the course of a campaign. There are also three scenarios, and a selection of cursed (or blessed, depending on your point of view) magical artefacts commonly found in the Shadowlands, which can be used by any army.
This 48-page softcover supplement contains:
– Westerland Aflame: A recounting of Frydaal the Chainmaker’s invasion of Westerland, an exploration of the many Marauder Tribes that fight at her side, and the champions that lead them.
– The Path to Glory: Rules for ‘Path to Glory’ campaigns set in the Old World, in which participants build mighty armies of conquest or destruction.
– Marauder Tribes: Profiles and rules for the Marauder Tribes, including Chaotic Traits and Chaotic Cults, the system of beliefs that ties the many tribes and clans of the Shadowlands together.
– Artefacts of the Shadowlands: Common magic items originating from the Shadowlands, which are available to all armies.
This is an expansion to Warhammer: The Old World – you'll need a copy of the Warhammer: The Old World Rulebook, Warhammer: The Old World – Ravening Hordes, and Arcane Journal: Warriors of Chaos, all available separately, to use the contents of this supplement. To play the start of a Path to Glory campaign, you may need a copy of Arcane Journal: The War of Settra's Fury, also available separately.
