The Seraphon lay siege to the Silver Tower and while Tome Eater feels that they could never successfully destroy the tower, breaking inside is a real possibility. The Gaunt Summoners are Tzeentch’s most powerful wizards and their magics could disrupt the very balance of the universe itself. The Seraphon forces marched across the Eightpoints, suffering as few casualties as they could avoid in order to reach the Silver Tower of one of Tzeentch’s nine Gaunt Summoners, Tome Eater. Kroak ordered these forces into the Eightpoints and they had more important plans than the fate of some Stormcast. Gardus prepares to fight with a Great Unclean one before meeting an ignominious end being crushed to death in the hands of the Greater Daemon. Their saviors seem to come in the form of Seraphon over the hill, but they charge past the Stormcast into the portal to the Eightpoints, leaving the Stormcast to fend for themselves.

Unfortunately they are confronted by Daemons of Nurgle immediately upon stepping foot within and must fight another battle for survival.

Gardus Steel-Soul of the Hallowed Knights leads his comrades-in-arms to a realmgate of Ghyran. The book snaps back to the middle of Morathi. When Morathi left the Stormcast Eternals to die during the raid on the Eightpoints, some Stormcast managed to successfully rally and fallback. Musing that Chaos has the potential to undo even The Old Ones plans if not kept in check, Lord Kroak hatches a plan to weaken Archaon and Be’lakor before they can ravage the Mortal Realms. The book opens with a monologue by Lord Kroak, the most powerful of the Seraphon. How does Be’lakor’s plot hold up? Read on! Act 1 -The Tower Falls Teclis killed off Arkhan the Black and left Nagash, the most powerful villain of the setting, heavily weakened and leaving a power vacuum for someone else to seize instead. Morathi shocked many players by completing a long running storyline that results in Morathi becoming the goddess she aspired to be. Campaigns in Warhammer are notorious for being very stagnant, in which not much changes and it usually ends in a stalemate where both sides lick their wounds but nobody really lost. Last weekend we discussed the rules sections of Broken Realms: Be’lakor but the true star of the show of Broken Realms has been the storyline. If you want to wait to read these yourself, turn back now. Spoiler Warning: Full plot details of Be’lakor (and major events from Morathi and Teclis) are below.
