Scenario 8: The Emperor of Chaos

December 2008·p. 19

THE SHORT VERSION

The final four-player battle combines earlier victors with the troops of defeated rivals. Losing generals are removed, and their former followers now share the winning commander’s leadership, standards and magical resources. Chaos Wastes terrain and haywire magic continue to shape the battlefield. Two people therefore control each enlarged army, turning the campaign’s previous rivalries into uneasy alliances for the right to lead the invasion.

War in the North

Phil Kelly adapts Mighty Empires for rival Chaos warlords competing to lead a southern invasion. Persistent gifts, magical instability and transformation into a Prince or Spawn give each general a developing identity. An escalating sequence of battles moves from the wastes through sacred duels to a combined-army finale. Four Studio collectors introduce contrasting forces, showing how the campaign can accompany a new army rather than demand a finished collection.
