The Madness of Baron Veingulper, Part II

March 2024·pp. 106–113

THE SHORT VERSION

The final two journeys pursue the defeated court back towards the Clot and then storm Baron Veingulper’s refuge. Repeated sidequest instructions preserve its connection to Ulfenkarn in Peril or Nightwars, while new Gorewarden and Archregent cards complete the enemy roster. The deluded baron increasingly realises Radukar has deceived him, but still interprets the heroes as daemonic attackers when they close in on his last stand.

Access Granted! Bunker on Crusade

The Bunker campaign moves into its second phase and repeats the additions that allow Combat Patrol and painting to contribute to a team’s progress. Lyle’s Tyranid patrol doubles as the nucleus of a Crusade force, illustrating how one small collection can serve several formats. The rules retain separate personal rewards even when teammates fight each other, while reserving campaign points for battles against rival teams.

The Crusade Campaign: Phase One

The Imperial defenders finish the first Bastior phase ahead despite individual defeats and strong invading armies. Player diaries trace Dan’s Mechanicus learning to hold back and use Protector firepower, Matt’s expanding Telennar collection and Wade’s effective Flesh Tearers veterans. Three awarded relics offer a stronger grenade burst, steadier battle-shock tests or a temporary surge of resilience before the team scores reset for phase two.

Blades of Khaine Spec Ops

Narrative progression lets Aspect Warriors change paths or become an Exarch while preserving the experience of their previous service. Recovered spirit stones pass a fallen veteran’s lessons to survivors, and shrine statuary, a Ranger and meditation facilities develop the base of operations. Two operations either test mastery across the Aspects or guide the team through uncertain strands of fate towards one crucial final objective.
