Games Workshop Expansion Blackstone Fortress: Escalation (English)

Product Information

It became the site of fierce fighting when Cypher and Sylandri Veilwalker freed Guilliman and his men. The Imperial Navy and Angels of Redemption tried to recapture one of the Fortresses, however it self-destructed, along with the three still in the Imperium’s hands. When Spindle Drones aren’t enough to stop your explorers, the fortress unleashes these larger constructs.

Abaddon the Despoiler first learned of the existence of the Blackstone Fortresses and their potential power at some point in the 40th Millennium. If you’re looking to lead from the front and wade through the enemy with barely a scratch, UR-025 is your guy/towering death-robot. Many vessels that were thought lost in the Warp have emerged in the orbit of the Blackstone, drawn by unknown means. Ascension is the final expansion for Blackstone Fortress, and today we’re taking a look at what’s been going on in the lead-up.Ambulls and Borewyrm Infestations are perfect for narrative or open play, though we’ve included points if that’s how you like to balance your games. Some Imperial archaeo-historians place the construction of these ancient artefacts anywhere between 17,000 and 300,000 standard years before their discovery in the 33 rd Millennium.

The Dreaded Ambull is an expansion designed to plug into your existing Blackstone Fortress set, and the first of several new adventures you’ll be able to try.

The power of the Blackstone Fortresses' Warp Cannons far surpassed even that of the Aeldari, the acknowledged masters of Warp-based technology in the galaxy. Today we study one of the ancient mysteries of the galaxy – The ever-increasing Blackstone Fortresses, their enigmatic origins, and disturbing abilities. The pathways it led into were huge arterial routes that even starships could navigate -- they could accommodate the Imperial war machines of the Terran Crusade with ease. The Blackstone Fortress is filled with treasures of ages past – and the Navigator Houses are interested in getting ahold of some of these.
