Opis
Red eyes and chisel fangs glint in the gloom. A terrible chittering fills
the air. Then, from the darkness they come – the skaven have arrived to blight
the Mortal Realms!
Chaos Battletome: Skaven is your guide to the evil
ratmen who gnaw at the very fabric of reality. Serving the Chaos deity known as
the Great Horned Rat, these sinister creatures seek to undermine the Mortal
Realms, conquering with raw cunning, overwhelming numbers, and strange
inventions.
In this 128-page hardback battletome, you’ll learn about
the history of the Skaven in the Mortal Realms – from their origins in Blight
City to their role in the Soul Wars, all illustrated with stunning and
evocative art. You’ll also find lore on their many clans and the brutal inner
workings of skaven society. The battletome goes on to cover how the skaventide
goes to war, showcased by several warscroll battalions, and all the warscrolls
needed to field a force of ratmen on the tabletop. You’ll be able to
mix-and-match a variety of skaven clans to build a killer army to suit your
tastes – slaying your enemies with endless hordes of Clanrats, blasting them
apart with the terrible technology of the warp lighting-wielding Stormfiends,
and unleashing vile monsters of arcane science like the Hell Pit Abominations.
All are goaded into battle by the scheming, backstabbing members of the
Masterclan!
Battletome: Skaven lets you customise the leaders of the
skaven with a selection of warpstone-infused artefacts and cunning sorceries.
Their spells come from the Lore of Ruin, a collection of sinister curses, and
the Lore of Warpvolt Galvanism, arcane arts that enhance Skyre units and
incinerate your foes. The book is also a great resource for collectors, packed
with examples of different colour schemes to inspire your own projects, as well
as painting tips. The section on Path to Glory rules and a pair of bespoke
missions are great for organising and playing your first games with this
insidious army.
