The Ennua System: War for Petricorum

July 2024·pp. 102–105

THE SHORT VERSION

Petricorum’s industrial wealth makes it a priority for Shadowsun and a world the Imperium cannot afford to lose. Kroot and other auxiliaries help open the T’au advance through difficult country, but the Cult of the Light Above rises inside First Claim as the armies close. Vitruscan raids delay the invaders until Sacred Rose reinforcements arrive, whereupon purging the hidden cult takes precedence over repelling the external threat.

Marco Schulze returns to Tyranids after a long break with a grotesque gunbeast, revisiting the fleets that appeared in earlier publications. Grombrindal reports that duardin unification has produced a noisy clan gathering rather than an easy agreement. Rudy Bigand’s converted Ravenwing Chaplain uses recognisable wing motifs, cool black armour and restrained warm gold to distinguish it from his Black Templars.

Worlds of Warhammer: The Bleak Citadels

Leila explores what endless Reforging costs a Stormcast when physical restoration no longer preserves compassion or identity. The Ruination chambers and Morrda’s final mercy arise from that tragedy rather than ordinary corruption. Bleak Citadels provide contemplation, watchful Lord-Relictors and Memorian descendants who sustain fading memories, while corvid creatures reinforce the connection between these warriors, mourning and the possibility of oblivion.

Encroaching Doom

An annihilating weapon drives both armies out of their deployment zones, where escalating damage makes delay increasingly costly. Selected infantry gain infiltration or scouting movement to help establish an escape route. Progressive objective control matters, but a nominated saviour unit must also reach a marker by the end to secure the final evacuation award.
