READ IT BECAUSE
It's a massive battle between Order and Chaos! Thousands of Stormcast Eternals from a dozen Stormhosts get their hammers dirty fighting the cannibalistic servants of Khorne.

READ IT BECAUSE

#3
The Gnawing Gate
2015
The war for Klaxus rages on! Having fought their way beyond the outer markers of the city, the Warrior Chamber of Orius Adamantine must find a way through the dread Gnawing Gate, a living edifice of Chaos. With the Bloodbound of Anhur and his skaven allies closing in, the Stormcast Eternals will need all of their determination and courage to triumph.
Read it because
As if a living gate that devours anyone trying to pass through it wasn't enough of a wonder, this story contains that rarest of a brave skaven. Warlord Warpfang is a fascinating character, as vicious and bloodthirsty as a lord of Khorne and as cunning as a Tzeentch sorcerer... definitely one to watch (if he survives).

#5

Daemons are unleashed and Orius must trust in his warriors to guard his advance into the heart of hell, else the war will be lost.
Read it because
The tale nears its conclusion, but the outcome is far from clear. Armies stand between the Stormcasts and the Black Rift, and the situation looks bleak...
