BATTLE REPORT·WHITE DWARF 370

Battle for the Island of Blood

October 2010·pp. 28–55

THE SHORT VERSION

Ten players refight the campaign’s climax with more than ten thousand points per side, a coastal battlefield and Jervis Johnson overseeing a scenario full of Skaven intrigue. Rat Swarms and Unbreakable war machines delay the relief army, two Dragons die to spectacular cannon shots, and rival Warlords spend critical moments undermining one another. Althran survives the bridge fight and kills Spinetail while Caladris completes his search; the Phoenix Stone’s spell finally destroys the Skaven on High Elf turn four. The report shows how separate heroic clashes and private ambitions can animate a very large shared game.
