Re: End Times: Khaine fluff discussion (may contain spoilers

The changes made are kinda silly but it has to be that way cause GW carried things to far. HE are sorta neutral/good and so are the WE, what they did however was make the DE truely evil and went overboard with it. This has forced them to either kill off all DE and malekith+morathi, or come up with a...

Re: End Times: Khaine fluff discussion (may contain spoilers

It is also STRONGLY implied that Malekith was the one who murdered Bel-Shanaar, I don't think this was only his Mother's doing and their actions were mostly coordinated after a point so he was at least an accomplice of such a heinous act. Malekith murdered Bel-Shanaar. In chapter twenty-four of Cur...

Re: Campaign of the end of times Rumors & Leaks

Re: Arcane unforging and tome of furion

Obliquely related: Arcane Unforging no longer requires the opponent to reveal which magical items the target possesses (of course, in this case, you already know that the target possesses Tome of Furion, since it was revealed during spell selection). So how do you randomize which item is destroyed?...

Re: Campaign of the end of times Rumors (only rumors)

It is important piece of information as it clearly says the way you choose armies in the End Times books overwrites the rulebook and affects all the armies of Warhammer, not only these described in End Time releases. This at least clears up a lot of rules issues I think. Only issue I have with this...

Re: End times book sold out = sold out?

They say right on the site it's sold out twice. Just means they are surprised by their own success and didn't give the printer enough lead time. It'll most likely be back, but it might be a little bit. nagash end times (physical book) aint listed at all anymore. (its not for me, glotkin should be o...

The nine books are listed as a magic item of nagash. Descriptions says "nagash knows 9spells" in it. By writing that under the books of nagash item we can kinda assume that nagash knows those 9spells from that magic item. Otherwise there would not even be a point in listing that specific i...
