The Slidecrown Sundering: The Campaign Concludes

January 2024·pp. 28–31

THE SHORT VERSION

The final campaign results decide whether the Viridian Crown is destroyed, preserved or stolen by the Rogues who supported the winning side. Separate narrative endings acknowledge each outcome, while the final armoury grants relics that can continue into later Path to Glory or Warcry stories. Rewards range from lucky protection and renewed vitality to the dangerous power of a stolen crown shard.

Sam Wright presents an expanded Ultramarines Fourth Company built around the narrative of Uriel Ventris, and Daniel Vallejo describes painting the Lion’s reflective black armour and green cloak. Other letters discuss the Imperium’s seemingly endless decline and the Blood Angels’ Secoris tragedy. The final painting question returns to Jes Goodwin’s colourful Hive Fleet Eumenides scheme.

Lyle reflects on the end of the Slidecrown Sundering and the pleasure of seeing players’ armies appear in a campaign organiser’s concluding fiction. The next shared event is introduced as a three-team Warhammer 40,000 Crusade campaign that also recognises Combat Patrol games. Painting new units will contribute, but an existing force is enough to join the campaign from its opening stage.

Battle of Carcass Donse

This historical battleplan recreates the clash between Kragnos and Gordrakk over leadership of their combined hordes. Both armies require monstrous generals who cannot retreat, while canyon walls shed dangerous boulders onto nearby units. A wounded general can attempt additional monstrous rampages, turning the damage it survives into a final surge of destructive power; only the survival of one general produces a decisive victory.
