End Times: Archaon

Ungrim and the dwarfs defend Avenheim thanks to Gelt’s Crucible but,
in the end, they sacrifice themselves while imperials and bretonnians
flee. Ungrim’s slayers fight against Zhufbar’s hosts.

Nagash offers Mannfred to the elves as a sing of good will, snaring him in a prison made of death magic.

Be’lakor
frees Mannfred and tells him the truth about Lileath. He is later found
by Jerrod (Be’lakor’s plan all the time) and tells him the truth about
Lileath. Jerrod lets Mannfred live, who then flees and calls her. She
admits the truth, saying that she is the Lady of the Lake, and also that
she pushed Bretonnia out of the Stone Age and saved them from the
greenskins and themselves. She says that she won’t ask for forgiveness,
because the sacrifice of Bretonnia was needed to create the Haven. Then
Be’lakor appears when Jerrod is about to kill her. They both fight and
the demon defeats Jerrod (but does not kill him), and turns to kill
Lileath, but Malekith and Tyrion pop out and trap Be’lakor.

Jerrod
returns to his people and tells them about the Lady. They decide not to
fight alongside the treacherous elves, returning to Bretonnia. No more
is known of them.

After the fall of Averheim, the Incarnates face
the daemonic host. The battle is hopeless, so Lileath sacrifices
willingly to Teclis in order to give him the needed power to move them
to Middenheim. A titanic battle takes place there, and the incarnates
travel to the caverns located beneath the city, where Archaon, the
Swords of Chaos, and the 4 greater daemons with their respective hosts
are waiting. Grimgor fights Arachaon and almost defeats him, but Archaon
manages to kill the orc. Then Archaon faces Sigmar, the Emperor, who
after a long battle defeats him, throwing him inside a rift created by
the Old Ones’ artifact that the chaos guys activated to destroy the
world. The surviving Incarnates, aided by Teclis (who now holds the
winds of Fire and Beasts), try to close the rift. They could have
succeeded, but Mannfred betrays his master (Nagash) killing Gelt. Teclis
tries to absorb the wind of Metal, but fails and dies, so the rift
feeds on them and sucks out all the Incarnate’s powers. Archaon appears
again, climbing out of the rift, and faces SIgmar one more time. They
both are last seen fighting against each other, with Ghal-Maraz being
held by Archaon as Sigmar tried to smash him. Meanwhile, Malekith saves
Alarielle from being crushed by debris, and then she and Tyrion turn
their backs and walk away while the Eternity King dies in pain, with his
legs crushed. They both look back at the growing rift while the
darkness swallows them.

Game Over.

Here's a short summary of what I gathered from a quick leaf-through:
- Pretty much anything of interest happens in Middenheim, including a ritual to end the world
- Caradryan is the Incarnate of Aqshy
- Grimgor decapitated by Archaon pretty much as an aside, after fighting scores of greater deamons on his own
- Archaon and Karl Franz clash twice, to little effect
- Dwarfs beliefe Balthasar Gelt to be Grungi reborn, are wiped out
- Sigvald kills Krell, gets killed by Thogg instantly afterwards
- Arkhan is sacrificed to cover a retreat
- Alarialle mindrapes Hellebron, then guts her like a fish
- Isabella becomes a servant of Nurgle, is killed by Vlad, who also dies in the attack
-Durthu sacrifices himself to rezz the Alarielle, who keeps *********** dying
- Balthasar Gelt dies to Mannfred, but was revealed as pretty much the most noble guy around
- Ka'Banda kills Caradryan and goes around kicking everybodies **** in for pages on end, killed by Sigmar himself
- the Wind of Heavens is revealed to be the will of Sigmar Heldenhammer, KF becomes Sigmar in full
- Teclis keeps absorbing the Winds of the Incarnates as those die, overloads and explodes
- Grimgor's Immortulz lead the final charge on Chaos
- Sigmar punches the Slayer of Kings apart
- Rituals goes through anyway, magic goes away, Nagash just fades away
- Mannfred dies like a bitch to Tyrion
- Sigmar and Archaon wrastle a bit, stumble into the ritual-created chaos rift like dummies
- EVERYBODY left suffers from 'Rocks Fall, Everybody dies'-syndrome, but Malekith gets away with crushed legs, Tyrion SOMEHOW is unharmed and Alarielle dies AGAIN and rezzes AGAIN

Wer ist denn Lileath?

und um mal nen kleinen rage abzulassen
Malekith ist wohl die ärmste sau in warhammer, wird jahrtausende beschissen um sein rechtmässiges Erbe, rettet zumindest teilweiße das volk der elfen und am ende rettet er sogar noch die beiden (Ehe betrüger) Allariel und Tyrion (der ja in gar keiner sooooo kurzen vergangenheit ) noch alle töten wollte, bekommt dafür die beine gebrochen und dann lassen die den auch noch zurück, wtf!!! okay die Welt geht unter aber hey , die hätten wenigstens bei dem bleiben können und Allariel ist ja zum glück nicht eine meisterin der magie die evtl. ihn heilen könnte oder so -.-

ja auch ich muss in den nerdrage mit einstimmen, alles was ich an warhammer seit den frühen Neunzigerin kenne und liebe is einfach weg,alle tot. Und die Zukunft is nun so ein spacemarine Stormfiend pre Horus heresy rundbase bubble skirmischer? Da bleib ich lieber in den Endtimes stecken, sollte das alles so schlimm werden, wie es sich grad für mich darstellt.

ich will ja nicht unken, aber so wie sich das liest kann man an sich kein altes Modell in eine " Nachenttimes Welt " übernehmen, wenn man das als Übergang sehen soll in ein neues Spiel ist es irgendwie einfallslos, und billig. Krach bumm alle tot, die Chaosgötter sind auch "weitergezogen" ansich kann das keiner überleben, und wenn doch wirkt das alles noch viel " bescheuerter " Ich hoffe insgeheim drauf dass es eine Skirmisch Spiel nach Endtimes geben wird. Und ein 9te Edition vor/zu Endtimes anders kann man sich nicht erklären wie die Endtimesbücher in der 9ten weiterverwendet werden sollen wenns keine Endtimes mehr gibt.

Und zum Schluss erträumt sich die mysteriöse Gestalt am Ende die Welt wie sie vorher war.... Nur ohne Götter DRS Chaos.
Alles beim Alten. Nur keine Dämonen
