Warhammer Day Preview – The Twin-Tailed Crusade Continues its Long March in Dawnbringers III

Dawnbringers is the narrative series at the centre of Warhammer Age of Sigmar happening right now. While war rages in Andtor and adventurous warbands plumb the frozen depths of Ghur, the tale of the Twin-Tailed Crusade continues apace in Dawnbringers: Book III – The Long Hunt

The Aqshian Crusade pushes into the Great Parch where they must battle the Goretide of Khorne, as old allies from the earliest days of Warhammer Age of Sigmar lore reunite for a grudge match against Khorgos Khul. In Ghyran, the Dawnbringers are beset on all sides by teeming hordes of deranged Ogor Gorgers, but a powerful new Sylvaneth ally makes himself known.

The Long Hunt amps up the twisting and turning narrative of the Twin-Tailed Crusade, and is stuffed with new rules to represent the major movers, shakers, battles, and forces in the next chapter of this two-sided story. 

Continue your Cities of Sigmar Path to Glory campaign with The Twin-tailed Crusade: Chapter 2 – Against the Odds, which includes setbacks, blessings, treasures, and eight separate battleplans. There are two each for Aqshyian and Ghyranite crusades, and four story battleplans that recreate critical moments in the story of The Long Hunt – all split into two elaborate branching quests.

There are four new Armies of Renown. The two new headline characters have their armies represented by The Evergreen Hunt – a cadre of Sylvaneth enthralled by the harmonies of the hunt – and the Draconith Skywing, a force of mounted Stormcast Eternals.

Ogor players can eat their fill with The Roving Maw, which turns the battlefield into a tapestry of ravenously toothy orifices that nibble and chew at units who stray too far from safety, as Gutbusters and Gorgers nimbly weave between them.

The Lofnir Drothkeepers round things out, pairing Vulkyn Flameseekers with Magmadroths that embody the searing ardour of Vulcatrix – and especially bold Flameseekers can even hitch a ride on these flame-filled beasts as they charge into battle.
