The Fracture of Biel-Tan

The next Gathering Storm book follows the Eldar alongside the events on Cadia. Yvraine’s quest to awaken Ynnead offers a possible answer to Slaanesh at a terrible cost, with new characters, faction rules and missions translating the upheaval into collecting and gaming opportunities.

The Triumvirate of Ynnead

Yvraine, the Visarch and the Yncarne represent priestess, ancient warrior and spectral avatar. Annotated details connect their baroque armour, spirit stones and blades to the earlier Aeldari civilisation, while an itinerary traces Yvraine’s passage from Commorragh through several Craftworlds towards the surviving Cadians.
