The Shrouded Sanctum

March 2020·pp. 96–99

THE SHORT VERSION

Two coalitions contest an exposed Stormvault in Ulgu: Stormcast and Idoneth guardians against Nurgle and Gloomspite despoilers. The bespoke battleplan uses reinforcements, objective scoring and faction-specific hidden ploys, allowing allies to cooperate while retaining their own reasons for claiming the relic within.

Worlds of Warhammer: His Dudes

Jordan Green follows Da Morkagorka Madladz from a randomly chosen Bonesplitterz warband into a cast of named characters with victories, deaths and new recruits. The Warcry campaign inspires purple warpaint, conversions and a later army, demonstrating how playing with a collection can generate its own distinctive background.

Stand Firm

A defending force holds a frontline while its rearguard and supporting fire resist a superior attacker. The mission supplies asymmetric deployment, limits on deployment tricks and additional stratagems, creating a desperate stand that can represent an evacuation or any battle in which buying time matters more than territorial gain.
