Games Workshop Expansion Blackstone Fortress: Escalation (English)

Product Information

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. Just remember to keep it well fed, lest it decide that your Ethereal looks tasty. With Toughness 6, and 7 Wounds, these are not going to be easy to take down. Where they really come into their own, though, is with their damage output. Despite these dangers, many recent expeditions to explore the fortress and plunder its wonders or even finally gain control of its immense power have been attempted. Among those individuals currently on Precipice seeking their own destinies within the fortress are such notables as the Rogue Trader Janus Draik, the Navigator Agent Espern Locarno, the Ecclesiarchy Priest Taddeus the Purifier, the Aeldari Ranger Amallyn Shadowguide, the Kroot mercenary Dahyak Grekh, the ancient Man of Iron UR-025, the Chaos Lord Obsidius Mallex and the Ork Freebooter Skarburn Zapdakka. Reaching the fortress' location requires a small and highly maneuverable spacecraft. Located close to the fortress is a small void station known as Precipice, created from the hulls of ruined starships and inhabited by a ragtag population of explorers and scavengers from across the galaxy that consists of individuals drawn from many different starfaring races. An uneasy truce endures aboard Precipice, which is enforced by a small cadre of powerful and influential starship captains looking to maintain stability on the station to pursue their own interests.

Like many Kroot, Dahyak Grekh is a mercenary, working for the highest bidder. The Kroot mercenary code of honour is key to him – for it is through loyal service that the Kroot may consume new genetic material. Through eating many unfortunate inhabitants of the fortress and thus assuming their memories, Grekh has learned much of the mysteries within… How Does He Play? They also have a special rule that makes any Spindle Drones even more dangerous for the duration of the combat. And these aren’t your common or garden Spindle Drones that you’ll be facing – they’re Awakened Spindle Drones. But there are other ways to add some Ambull action to your games without it being the main focus of the mission. Here are some other options:It’s ‘dreaded’ for a reason – the Ambull hits hard and won’t go down easily either! It also has two handy abilities that enable it to rapidly heal and relocate across the battlefield at great speed. As Mallex and the Chaos Cultists erect vile fanes to the Dark Gods, he exerts more control over the fortress itself. The world-shattering weaponry that has lain dormant for aeons now stirs, and Precipice is in the line of fire. The explorers must stop them before Mallex threatens the stability and balance of the entire region – and perhaps even the Imperium itself. Encounter, Discovery, Exploration and Hostile cards offer new challenges and twists for your adventures.

Hostiles in grey plastic: Obsidius Mallex, Chaos Lord; 2 Chaos Space Marines of the Servants of the Abyss; 4 Chaos Beastmen; 4 Ur-Ghuls; 4 Negavolt Cultists; 2 Rogue Psykers; 4 Spindle Drones and 14 Traitor Guardsmen. [2] Let’s not mess around here – the Dark Mechanicum is cool! The Negavolt Cultists are some of the first examples of Dark Mechanicum models that we’ve seen in the 41st Millennium, and not only do they look great, but they can fight too. But the galaxy is a vast and lonely place. For every sector abuzz with life, there are countless more that are dead zones. Even as wars reach into every corner of the galaxy, great swathes still lie silent, untouched and empty. The Primaris Psyker Aradia is able to use her precognitive abilities to make other players more effective. Her unique action, Psychic Boost, will help your team succeed on crucial actions. Mind over matter and all that.The new Traitor Commissar is absolutely deadly at close range, using his power fist to pulverise any explorers who get too close. Seriously, keep him at a safe distance!

Dicebreaker is owned by Gamer Network Limited, a ReedPop company and subsidiary of Reed Exhibitions Limited. Traveling to the Fortress itself requires a small and nimble vessel. Near the structure is a small way-station known as Precipice, inhabited by a ragtag crew of explorers and scavengers from across the galaxy and consisting of a variety of races. Armed with an assault cannon and power claw, UR-025 is incredibly useful in both shooting and close combat. Any Imperial commander will find them very handy – or should that be claw-y? Just don’t ask too many questions about where his Tech-priest is… 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. Its massive remains were flung from orbit onto the surface of Cadia as an artificial meteor, its kinetic impact killing most of Cadia's remaining defenders and at last allowing the Eye of Terror to swallow the world. The geothermal stress caused by the fortress' impact ultimately caused Cadia to rip itself apart.Abaddon the Despoiler first learned of the Fortresses sometime in M40, where he was guided by the visions of Zaraphiston to an Eldar Crone World. There, he read an ancient prophecy revealing their existence. As if the ground disappearing beneath your explorers’ feet wasn’t bad enough, there is another new threat to your explorers – the Guardian Drones. We’ve already seen the awesome new models , but what can they do in the game? Well, they are armed with a selection of weapons that make them deadly at every range. The great Craftworld Aeldari Farseer Eldrad Ulthran boarded the fortress, attempting to remove the taint of Chaos and return the fortress to Aeldari control. As the fortress had been possessed by a portion of the mind of the Chaos God Slaanesh, Eldrad's body was destroyed, but his mind remained trapped within the construct. Need a cheap option to round out a formation for your Chaos army? Look no further than the Cultists of the Abyss. This ragtag gang of worshippers are perfect for a cheeky objective grab.
