Games Workshop Expansion Blackstone Fortress: Escalation (English)

Product Information

The Blackstone Fortresses also influenced the outcome of the most recent Black Crusade of Chaos against the Imperium. Viewed from the top, the shape of an activated Blackstone Fortress has warped to resemble the eight-pointed Star of Chaos Undivided.

This would mean that the actual weapons forged in ancient times by the Old Ones informed the subsequent myth of the Aeldari War in Heaven. Neyam Shai Murad and the Cultists of the Abyss are available in Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress – Escalation .

Upon its surface Abaddon read a prophecy -- the Penumbra Prophecy -- that revealed the secrets of six weapons of immense power.

Clearly, the Emperor still has plans for this sinner, since he has somehow managed to survive against the fortress’ almost endless threats. If you have an army built around ranged firepower, such as the T’au Empire, adding the Ambull to your forces will give you an excellent counter-charge option. Some of the other Cultists are equipped with heavier weaponry, including grenade launchers and heavy stubbers, to make you pay dearly for every inch you advance into their demesne. At the start of each battle round, the players roll-off to see who controls a roving Ambull for the duration of that battle round. The Chaos Ogryn also has a new unique action, Crush, which represents how much more shocking a charging Ogryn is.Once a hive ganger, Pious Vorne now fights alongside Taddeus the Purifier, having discovered the joys of faith (not to mention burning heretics). The Blackstone assaulting Cadia, the Will of Eternity, nearly destroyed the planet but was itself crippled by the Phalanx after a Space Wolves boarding party disabled its shields. You’ll need a copy of Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress to play – if you don’t already have it, what are you waiting for?

Overcoming the tesselating chambers within the fortress will be a challenge unlike any other that your adventurers have faced before. The Primaris Psyker Aradia is able to use her precognitive abilities to make other players more effective. Ascension by Darius Hinks is the tie-in novel to the final expansion for the game, and it sees Janus Draik at his lowest ebb. These wrecks themselves are a tempting prize for scavengers, as they contain ancient wonders and weaponry.

A single Blackstone had the power to obliterate a planet; three working in concert possessed the raw might to destroy a star. With stories by Darius Hinks, Josh Reynolds, Nick Kyme, and Guy Haley, it’s the perfect way to explore the Blackstone Fortress from the comfort of your own home.
