Beastmen
-Same old story. Raiding the Brets and Empire, getting filled full of holes by Wood Elves. This time though, Chaos is surging so it can be surmised they're doing pretty well. But in the end, they'll probably just end up as the redshirts at the front of Archaon's army.
-Malagor had been told by the Gods to stop Nagash's ascension. He did an admirable job of trolling Skeletor's flunkies to prevent his resurrection but ultimately failed (obviously). This was probably due to the vast power difference between the Undead and Beastmen lists, but he still deserves credit for trying.
-Taurox the Brass Bull gets put down like a rabid animal by Huntsmarshal Markus Wulfhart, who puts a shot square in Taurox's still-fleshy throat.
Bretonnia
-Half the population of Bretonnia has been wiped out by war and plague.
-Morgiana le Fay, the Fay Enchantress and daughter of the Lady, was turned into a vampire by Mannfred. After being used as a plaything to unleash on captive Bretonnians for lulz, she was lead to a sacrificial alter and bled out over a cauldron alongside Aliathra and Volkmar to summon Nagash's spirit.
-Bretonnian nobility has gone the way of Sylvanian nobility, with vampirism spreading in the ranks.
-Mallobaude, bastard son of the king, (aka "Not-Mordred") has lead Bretonnia in a cluster civil war. He was supported by Arkhan the Black while the dukes of Carcassonne, Lyonesse, and Artois rose up in his support.
-King Louen Leoncoeur fought Mallobaude in battle, and it was initially believed he was killed. He then conquered every Bretonnian city he attacked and killed every opponent who he fought without a scratch.
-The Green Knight was revealed to be Gilles Le Breton, founder of Bretonnia. Le Breton is functionally immortal, having become the demigod servant of the Lady. He has retaken his place as True (God) King of Bretonnia, and in an uncharacteristic display of things going well for Bretonnia he killed Mallobaude, beat (most of) the undead out of his nation, and is preparing Errantry War against the Destruction armies of the setting. All of them.
-Louen Leoncoeur was revealed to be alive, and he's not exactly pleased with his demotion from king to champion. Despite this, after being informed by the Lady that the Germans are the key to the safety of the world, he dutifully lead a huge army of Bretonnian knights (including his own personal RAF of Pegasus Knights) through Athel Loren and against the forces of Chaos, saving the Empire (for now). Louen himself dies in the temple of Shallya at the hands of Festus the Leechlord, after killing Ku'Gath Plaguefather.
Daemons of Chaos
-Chaos Gods are sitting back and jizzing Chaos into the material plane and otherwise doing all of Jack and shit after Jack left town. Nurgle, who's power waxes to become the strongest Chaos God and wanes to the weakest depending on the state of the mortal world, is supercharged right now thanks to the happenings (mainly all the rotting zombies about).
-Chaos Gods of Order are doing even less than that.
-Be'lakor is doing all the heavy lifting for Chaos, and is trying to get Nagash out of the way. As usual, he acts like he's got shit under control and everyone is his bitch like Tzeentch with a 2-inch "Widowmaker".
-The largest force of Daemons ever to appear in the material plane, surpassing even the fall of the Warp Gates, has appeared in the Chaos Wastes. Pledged entirely to Archaon (rather than any of the Chaos Gods or their various champions), they are awaiting the word to march.
-Ku'gath Plaguefather and Epidimeus play integral roles in weakening Altdorf and destroying Talabheim.
-Nurgle infects Taal with a plague that cripples him, but with the onset of winter, Shallya, the Lady of the Lake and Ulfric are able to purge the god of nature of Nurgle's plagues.
Dark Elves
-A huge army of Warriors of Chaos besieged Naggaroth, and Malekith may have used the opportunity to assassinate Morathi. Malus Darkblade makes a small cameo; still kicking and scheming, that dastardly .
-Malekith's plans to rape Ulthuan are on hold while he deals with the Chaos army, meaning he may just care about Naggaroth more than the Phoenix Throne. He's also in contact with Teclis.
Dwarfs
-Dwarfs, with their massive huge army of technologically advanced sturdy and stubborners, are debating retreating to their Holds and retaking everything from the Goblins once and for all then hiding like Wood Elves thus becoming irrelevant (Tolkien's Curse) or suicidally using that army to up Chaos/Nagash and save the Keebs and Humans (remember the Dwarfish word for "Human" is also Dwarfish for "suck").
-Either way, the Slayers will pick the latter route.
-Thorek Ironbrow suicided by overcharging his anvil as a nuke (to be fair, the anvil was already cracked and so blowing up was the only thing it could do, and he was already fatally wounded). The result was massive destruction of the Undead of Nagash, forcing them out of the Dwarf Holds. However Neferata still escaped with a relic snack for Naggy. Thorek also opened Valayas Gate, doing so is supposed to lead them to another golden age but Nagash went through instead and drained the sleeping Valaya of her stored up magic. Presumably the gate's still open and she isn't dead (since it never specifically says Nagash ate her, just her magic, and it also says he only reached divinity when he ate Usirian) and presumably there's still another Dwarf God just inside of it.
High Elves
-The Annuli, long thought to be the realm of the Gods where Daemons sometimes invade from for some reason, have been leaking Daemons like Games Workshop releases Space Marine models (heyo!). Whether this is because the High Elf Gods were booted out of the Warp like the Woodies say, or because everyone who got close had Warpdust high induced hallucinations, or if they were just that ing dumb is unclear.
-Finubar the Seafarer has locked himself in a tower to figure shit out, and if what Arkhan says is anything to go by (as well as Teclis's horror upon finding him) he is now dead.
-Aliathra is revealed to be Tyrion's daughter, not Finubar's. She's now dead, having been used as the last sacrifice to resurrect Nagash.
-Tyrion is still an emo brooding prick. But now he's an emo brooding prick thated up royally (literally, he cuckolded the Phoenix King), so Teclis wants him to lead the the High
Elf armies in Finubar's absence.
-Teclis is manipulating everyone like a mortal Be'lakor. He did everything short of slapping Tyrion due to his cheap shit, he's trying to get the Empire in fighting shape, and he's possibly manipulating Dark Elves into a race-wide An Hero. He also intentionally let Aliathra get sacrificed in order to bring Nagash back, since she's actually Tyrion's secret bastard and thusly her blood "infected" Nagash with Anerion's curse, rather than giving him the double-dose of divine power he expected from a true Everchild.
-Eltharion the Grim is dead. Kicked ass, took names, did NOT save the girl. Went out like the grim hero he was, incinerated aged to dust by Arkhan the Black.
-Caledor has seceded from the Phoenix Throne. Because that worked out so well the first time.
-Regardless of how things turn out, Dragons (at least the intelligent ones) will go extinct according to their own prophesy.
-Alarielle is headibg to the Old World to save the Wood Elves.
-The high elves are apparently about to drop the idiot ball of all idiot balls and screw over their entire race with their petty shit as Ulthuan is drug into ANOTHER civil war, with GW claiming that now the Asur prove "they aren't a race of good".
Lizardmen
-Having lost most of the Temple Cities and with most of the jungle on fire, the remaining Slann have declared the plans of the Old Ones to have failed and are preparing for a mass Exodus. To where isn't known.
Ogre Kingdoms
-The Mountains of Mourn have been lost to the eruption of the volcano the Firebellies worship as a war god sibling to the Great Maw, and taking it as a sign the fleeing Ogre tribes
are rushing to join other (as in all) factions in this World War.
-Greasus Goldtooth has taken advantage of the situation to declare himself leader of all Ogres.
-There's another mass migration as the entire Ogre race starts to leave (evacuate) the Mountains of Mourn.
Orcs & Goblins
-Grimgor Ironhide is gettin' his pimp hand ready and marching for the northern wastes to challenge the chaos champions.
-Skarsnik is still flashy.
-Wurrzag, realizing that the above two are so much cooler than he is, has decided they will be the chosen champions of Gork and Mork. He has begun a mighty quest to inform them of the fact.
-Grom the Paunch remains dead HAH.
-The Orcs as a whole are supercharged on WAAAGH energy and have stopped all of their infighting. Nobody knows which side they'll ultimately end up on.
Skaven
-Skaven are invading the world, and have taken most of Lustria and large chunks of the Old World. They are doing so on command from the Horned Rat, showing he may be making his move to become the rat inside Chaos God Nagash's ribcage.
-The Horned Rat grew tired of the current chief Grey Seer and incinerated him.
-Clan Skryre have invented a portable communication device called the Farsqueaker. Six-nipple selfies and furry dickpics are the newest plagues to the world. More importantly, the Skaven CIA/Homeland Security taskforce along with Horned Rat evangelism has united the Skaven for the first time in their history.
The Empire
-With the retcon that Storm of Chaos never happened, Volkmar the Grim has been saved from his time spent as the personal banner of Be'lakor. So GW decided he deserved an even worse fate. He gets butthurt when Mannfred decides to quit the Empire and he goes off, alone, to have a chat with the vampire. Clearly that didn't go as well as Volkmar (and only Volkmar) expected, and he was captured. In captivity he was constantly plagued with nightmares of Nagash, and was brutally beaten to an inch of his life and only kept alive through magic. After putting him through the worst shit you can imagine (GW must HATE this guy), he finally was sacrificed along with Aliathra and the Fey Enchantress. During their ritual to resurrect Nagash, Volkmar's hand was chopped off and replaced by Nagash's, all Vecna-style, allowing Nagash to (very painfully) takes possession of his body, and mutating it to become the new Nagash we all know and love. Being a daemon's flag doesn't sound so bad after all...
-Some time ago, a minion of Queen Neferata gave Balthazar Gelt, head of the Colleges of Magic and the Gold Order, a scroll containing information that Gelt used to create a magical set of uber anti-chaos wards; using ritual circles all around the countryside fueled by both arcane and divine magics, he created a HUGE stone wall (which contained a Great Unclean One), too high for any Chaos monstrosity to fly over and capable of healing any damage inflicted to it. This wall surrounded the borders of (what was once) Kislev and kept the hordes of Chaos out, but was constantly in danger of being breached. Seeing this, Vlad secretly gave Gelt a copy of one of Nagash's books, and Gelt was tempted to reading it. At one climatic battle where Chaos managed to breach the wall and kill all of Gelt's mystic allies, he was left with the choice between raising the dead and having a breach he could not stop. Thinking it was for the good of the Empire, he chose the former option. Having switched to Necromancy from Metal magic, he started playing with corpses and being pretty outspoken about using the undead in place of regular soldiers. After being outed publicly, he was confronted by Aldebrand Ludenhof, the local Elector Count, whom he killed after the count tried to kill him after refusing to see things his way. The wards failed as a result of Gelt's actions (the Sigmarites refused to have anything to do with him, including helping with the wards, which as mentioned need their faith to work), the Gold Order dissolved in the wake of Witch Hunter inquisitions while the Colleges of Magic appointed a new head. Regardless, Necromancy has begun to spread through the Empire.
-Archaon immediately ordered an invasion after that to help out the recently freed Great Unclean One, lead by Aekold Helbrass. Aekold, lacking the patience to follow instructions, destroyed Kislev instead sending refugees running to the Empire. Crom was sent off to a fight he'd probably die in. He also sent a very large chunk of Nurgle's champions, including three great Warriors lords and theing Glottkin, to cut down south and destroy Altdorf.
-As the combined forces of the Empire waited to make a stand against Crom's force, they were joined by Gelt and Vlad's massive Undead army (and his PR campaign looking for recruits) who are now keeping Archaon and the combined forces of Chaos at bay (despite some Blood Dragons having other ideas).
-Karl Franz and Deathclaw were bested by the leader of the Blood Dragons that broke from Vlad's relief forces (who turned to Khorne worship, of all the vampires they were probably the worst ones to send up north) in solo combat against him and his dragon. After taking a sword through the chest and falling hundreds of feet to the ground and somehow surviving, he crawled his way to a Chaos camp where Deathclaw was awaiting slaughter. The two managed to make their way through the massive hordes of Chaos back to Altdorf, where he took command of the defense forces. After Louen Leoncoeur's men broke through the Chaos lines, Karl was left dying by Otto Glott on the Altar of Sigmar. He became host to Sigmar's holy power as well as the souls of every Emperor and every major human hero too awesome to be forgotten, becoming the true God Emperor of Warhammer Fantasy. His holy visage burned away all Undead, all Chaos, and even the dirt, dust, oil, weeds, the remnants of the plague victims in the quarantined districts that have been rotting away for decades, and so forth until Altdorf (what remained) was a city of light. Deathclaw fought a Chaos Spawn during the battle and has not been seen since.
-During the battle, the forces of Chaos directed most of their efforts against the various temples of the human pantheon. Barring the powers of Sigmar in Valten/Karl Franz and the powers of Morr that were stolen by Nagash, the human pantheon is too diminished to be a factor now.
-Kurt Helborg was killed by Otto Glott in the battle as well.
-Vlad's forces mopped up all the Chaos forces left outside the city. Festus was personally killed by Vlad, who then drank Otto's blood which wasn't a good idea considering he's a Nurgle champion, forcing him to off.
-Schwarzhelm, Luthor Huss, plus Valten and Ghal Maraz are MIA from the battle in Altdorf. Nulndon still stands.
-Marienburg, Talabheim, and Altdorf are the three cities destroyed by Nurgle's forces. Altdorf is still in human hands.
-Genevieve Sandrine du Pointe du Lac Dieudonnй is now canon, thanks to Drachy being canon again. Somewhere in the Empire, a Wuxia French Lahmian/Blood Dragon Vampire blessed by Sigmar and her epic level Bard hubby are waiting to up the first Chaos or Nagashi minions who try to leave her inn without leaving a tip.
Tomb Kings
-Nagash consumed one god of Nehekhara (specifically Usirian, the god of the underworld) as a pre-Chaos snack, becoming not only an embodiment of Shyish the Amethyst Wind but also the force through which all Tomb Kings reincarnate. The Priesthood now have no choice but to join him.
-Settra the Imperishable lead the Tomb Kings against the newly resurrected Nagash. Nagash won, held Settra in his hand and offered him position as a Mortarch. Settra replied "SETTRA DOES NOT SERVE! SETTRA RULES!" so Nagash blew apart his body and chucked the head into the desert to watch as Nagash destroyed his cities. The rest of the Tomb Kings ed off back to warring over pocket change either joined Nagash or died. Days after Nagash left him in the desert he still wanted his revenge and without any warning his body was fully restored. He then heard four voices laughing in his head who told him the battle was only over if he wanted it to be. Whether he's Chaos Settra now, or just gets to have round 2 against Naggy is up to the player to decide.
-Arkhan the Black remained loyal to Nagash as ever, and helped Mannfred resurrect him. He was made Mortarch of Sacrament for his trouble. He curbstomped Kemmler, but then for the first time in his life had second thoughts about serving Nagash. After all, how in a world of clattering bones and minion hissyfits will he ever get a good night's sleep?
Prince Apophas, whose soul now belongs to Nagash due to Naggy eating Usirian, who Apophas made his original deal with in the first place, has been enslaved by Nagash after getting knocked the out. The fact that he shows up in the undead legions army list shows that he most likely survived.
Queen Khalida, being reasonably bro for an undead lady, thought about resisting, but realized what a stupid idea that would be. She joined to take her revenge on Neferata since it was the only way she can take her revenge now.
-King Phar decided to stand up to Nagash with full knowledge that he would get his ass kicked. He'd rather go out like a boss then be another one of Nagash bitch boys. Predictably, he was crushed but went out swinging.
Vampire Counts
-Mannfred von Carstein "reveals" himself as a servant of Nagash. He is made the Mortarch of Shadow. He originally planned on betraying Nagash and consuming him for personal power, but is now terrified of him.
-With the sacrifice of Aliathra, the vampirified Fey Enchantress, and Volkmar Nagash returns to the world, further empowered with energies stolen from minor gods and ancient relics from all over the world. He extected to become a demigod by becoming the Everking from Aliathra, but as she is Tyrion's daughter tather than Finubar's he inherited the Curse of Aenarion as well. He then levitated his Black Pyramid, making it a MASSIVE mobile base (it's one of the largest structures in the entire Warhammer Workd, second in known canon only to the Tower of Hoeth).
-Control of the afterlife has been usurped from Morr. Dead souls from mortals now reside in Sylvania in a Greek underworld shade kind of way. Good news is everyone is still safe from Chaos, bad news is that now you're stuck hanging out with everyone you hate and fought against in life as a peasant of Nagash's new empire for all eternity. Whether Ereth Khial still has dibs on souls is unknown.
-Nagash consumed the Nehekharan God of Death, making himself a permanent part of the Death Wind and thus a Chaos entity who is growing in power. The Chaos Gods have become fearful of him now, realizing they're playing with an equal now. Determined to purge himself of the Curse of Aenarion, Nagash retreated back into his sky pyramid and began to research.
-Nagash gifted Dread Abyssals, formerly a pack of ghost skeleton dragon-things which guarded the afterlife like Cerebus, to his Mortarchs, and gave them command over the former afterlife peacekeepers, the Morghasts.
-Nagash resurrected Vlad von Carstein from the dead and made him the Mortarch of Shadow. Mannfred was butthurt over this, especially when Nagash dubbed Vlad "The Greatest Vampire". Vlad isn't too happy either, but Isabella didn't come back with Vlad, and since his sole motivation in life other than becoming Emprah is acting like a teenage couple with Issy, the promise of Nagash to return her to life secured Vlad's total loyalty (unless he feels Naggy has it on the bottom of the To Do list anyway). Vlad immediately set out being Nagash's Cult Attendant by converting key minions from human kingdoms, and beating the shit out of anything bearing Chaos icon like a giant army-sized game of wack-a-mole.
Arkhan and Kemmler duel by shooting raw magic at each other while talking shit like it's a rap battle. Arkhan says Kemmler's four Waifus are shit. Kemmler says Arkhan's husbando is shit. Arkhan says Kemmler is more Failbaddon than wizard Archaon. Kemmler says "NO U" and loses the magic battle, causing him to explode. Arkhan also develops feelings for Neferata, coming to resent fleshless unlife and Nagash as a result.
-Krell was revealed to never have been under Kemmler's control; it's unclear if he still had a glimmer of sapience and was a companion to Kemmler, is just a puppet robot only possessing the knowledge of swinging his axe and ambling towards things his Necromantic programming says is a for, or was a servant of Nagash all along. Either way, Chaos has forsaken him fully while the Undead were recruiting, and as a result he was named the Mortrach of Despair.
-Queen Neferata debated on her course of action. Join her old master and husbando Nagash and become Mortarch of Blood, but have to share power with those other assholes? Or over Nagash and pretend she's Genevieve by siding with the forces of Good Order but be stuck back at her lousy dead-end job as queen of the Vampire Bards? She wound up joining Nagash, likely as afraid of him as Mannfred while still playing her own games like Vlad is. Either way, she delivered an ancient magical artifact for Nagash (TA HAAAAAVE) and is paying lip service while she mulls it over.
-Zacharias the Everliving is ironically now dead.
-Abhorash, although not a Mortarch, sends some of his Blood Dragons to assist Vlad in saving the Empire slapping Archaon's shit to be declared da best. Unknown to him however, many of the Blood Dragons had started worshipping Khorne and turned on the other vampires due to the fact that if Nagash rules everything, there's nobody left to fight and drink blood from. Their leader Walach beats Karl Franz and Vlad, but gets killed because he's too busy monologuing to realize Vlad was taking control of his skeleton dragon (who then rips Walach in half). There's no word on what Abhorash or the rest of his bloodline is doing now though.
-Luthor Harkon was offered Mortarchship (no pun intended). He and Vlad head north to fight Chaos, but since they were fighting on the mainland and Harkon is vampire Aquaman, he threw a hissy fit and ed off back to the sea. No word on if Nagash is disappoint or shrugs it off since pirates are cool.
-Drachenfels has returned to canon as a Mortarch, as he has lost his memories and has been offered to have them returned to him if he fights for Nagash (so he's still basically evil Tom Bombadil). He's only referred to vaguely though, as the "Great Enchanter From The Gray Mountains" or "The Nameless". He joined Mannfred and Vlad in their constant battle against the Warriors of Chaos (if anyone can come up with tortures Slaaneshi can't enjoy, it's him).
Warriors of Chaos
-Archaon is on the warpath again. He seeks to end all life everywhere as a " you" to the Chaos Gods, and Bel'akor can't stop him. But the von Carsteins allied with the Empire have his men stalled just in the Empire's borders with neither side making meaningful gains against the other. Archaon has not actually gone with his troops, waiting instead with his HUGE army of Daemons.
-Vardek Crom the Conqueror is dead. Any future sightings may be as Krell 2.0.
-Valkia the Bloody is leading a large Khornate army against Naggaroth to ruin the Dark Elves day. Maybe Khorne finally got tired of being compared to Khaine.
-Aekold Helbrass ed Kislev, rather than wait for Archaon's orders to march. According to the Gotrek & Felix novel "Kinslayer", he's also fighting a personal crusade against
-Throgg, since the Troll King enslaved him to try and make him mutate other trolls to be intelligent like himself.
-Archaon decides to weaken the Empire by sending in a great three-fold horde of Nurgle worshippers, figuring that even if they don't win, their plagues will weaken the Empire. To this end, he gives them three vials containing contagions brewed by Nurgle himself.
-As this is happening, Festus the Leechlord and Ku'gath Plaguefather are preparing a daemonic ritual to open rifts leading between the mortal world and Nurgle's own garden in the Realm of Chaos.
-Archaon chooses the Glottkin to lead his Nurgle hoard. They ally themselves with the Maggoth Riders of Icehorn Peak, Orghotts Daemonspew, Bloab Rotspawned, and Morbidex Twiceborn, and with Gutrot Spume.
-Marienburg is destroyed by the invasion of the Glottkin, whilst the Maggoth Riders and Gutrot Spume go their seperate ways.
-Gutrot Spume gathers a hoard of beastmen and battles against the forest goblins and savage orcs of the forest.
-The Maggoth Riders join up with a force led by Epedimius and destroy Talabheim.
-All three Nurgle armies besiege Altdorf as Festus completes his ritual.
-Festus becomes a daemon prince of Nurgle, killing Louen Leoncoeur before getting stomped by Vlad von Carstein, who skewers him with a piece of wood and lets Festus' own aura turn it into a massive tree inside his body, which rips him apart.
-The Glottkin nearly get butchered by the empowered Karl Franz, but Ethrac manages to spit out a spell that lets them turn into fly swarms and buzz off. Not that it does them any good; an enraged Nurgle drags them into his mansion and imprisons them in jars.
-Gutrot Spume and the Maggoth Riders lead a retreat after the daemonic rifts are closed.
-Kairos Fateweaver taunts Archaon about his plans, but the Everchosen feels now is the time to move himself against the Empire.
Wood Elves
-Practicing the time-honored tradition of "Hide in forest, let Brets deal with it, laugh about how everyone is stupid except us 'cause we got the high ground". However, they don't seem to know that the Bretonnians are getting worked over by Chaos and Undead.
-The Tree of Ages is dying and Ariel with it. This does not make Orion happy. Fortunately for them, Alarielle has decided to help.
-Araloth gathered a huge army, then was teleported out of existence by Lileath herself for reasons unknown, said to have never been seen again.
Armyless Factions
-Kislev has mostly been destroyed by Archaon (since apparently that's how all events start) and only one city remains. Refugees have flooded the Empire. No word on the Tzarina's fate, though it is believed that she is leading what is left of her forces in a final last stand alongside the Vampires to buy the Empire some time.
Tilea has been destroyed by Skaven, refugees are flooding the Empire.
-Gotrek & Felix are at an end. The next arc (featuring Be'lakor) finishes the series, and needless to say it's likely the suicidal Squat won't make it.
Estalia shares the same fate as Tilea and is in even worse shape as the skaven conquer the entire country.
-Half of the border princes lands are overrun by skaven, though some princes join Mannfred and become vampires to save their kingdoms
-Cathay is also being invaded by chaos and probably by the hobgoblins too. Nothing is said about the fate of the country, though its probably in a similar situation as the Empire. Nippon isn't mentioned, but it can be assumed that they are getting their shit wrecked.
-The Kingdoms of Ind aren't mentioned either, but it can be assumed that they are being overrun by beastmen, daemons or skaven (or all 3).
-After Estalia and Tilea fall, Araby is next on the skavens list. They are currently doing better than their white neighbors and actually holding out, but just barely.
-Halflings in The Moot continue to be useless foodies.
А вордфильтр тут хорошо работает.
