    And how would you fly from one plane of existence to  another?

     

    First by going to Azyr. You CAN see Azyr from each realm, as stated in Pantheon, and it's essentially space and upper atmosphere to the realms. Plus there's multiple "joints" in the realms, if memory serves right, Warbest showed a place of connection to Aqshy in Ghur. And the local realmgate led to ghyran.

    Interviewing David Guymer Monday for Combat Phase podcast on his AoS work in 2017 if anyone has any listener questions.

    Is he the one doing the gotrek audio drama or is it guy haley? I always mix them up.  If yes, ask him about the audio drama.

    The Advent Calendar so far, and a Christmas teaser

    BLAdvent-Banner.jpg

    We’re now more than halfway through the Black Library Advent Calendar, and it’s been quite a ride so far. We’ve had tales from the Great Crusade, the Horus Heresy, the 41st Millennium and the Mortal Realms – including the Mirrored City of Shadespire. In case you’ve not been keeping up, here’s a quick rundown.

    BLAdventRoundup-Dec13-Calendar1r.jpg


    Day 1 saw us head back to the Great Crusade for a Primarchs audio drama, ‘Perturbo: Stone and Iron’, which pitted Perturabo against some nasty enemies – and saw him use his Imperial Fists rivals to teach new recruits a lesson about the nature of their respective Legions. On Day 2, ‘Endurance’had the Death Guard bring horror to the tired defenders of an Imperial world, while Day 3 took us to Shadespire as both a Stormcast Eternal and a Khorne Bloodreaver experienced memories of another life in ‘Doombound’.

    BLAdventRoundup-Dec13-Products2f-500x500
    BLAdventRoundup-Dec13-Products3r-500x500


    On Day 4,‘Duty Waits’ gave some fantastic insight into the minds of the Imperial Fists patrolling the walls of Terra as they await Horus’ arrival. Day 5’s ‘Key of Infinity’ was an Ahriman story that pitted his wits against an ancient Necron Cryptek, with time-twisting results. And Day 6 heralded the triumphant return of Hamilcar Bear-Eater (self-proclaimed greatest of all the Stormcast Eternals) in ‘Gods’ Gift’.

    BLAdventRoundup-Dec13-Products6y-500x500

    ‘Magisterium’ returned us to Terra on Day 7, as Constantin Valdor struggled to find a place for the Custodian Guard in the impending Siege of Terra. On Day 8, the Flesh Tearers faced ruin as a cabal organised ‘The Assassination of Gabriel Seth’, while Day 9 was back to Terra once more, for a look at Rogal Dorn as the last hours before Horus’ arrival tick down in ‘Now Peals Midnight’. What is he really afraid of…?

    BLAdventRoundup-Dec13-Products9m-500x500


    Day 10’s ‘The Witch Takers’ was a rollicking adventure ride across a desert in the Mortal Realms, in search of an artefact of Chaos. ‘Heart of Decay’ on Day 11 was a creepy audio drama featuring the Chaos-obsessed Relictors interrogating a captured Death Guard, and yesterday’s ‘Dreams of Unity’took a different look at Terra, through the eyes of one of the last Thunder Warriors, fighting in the gladiatorial pits.

    Today’s tale, ‘Callis and Toll: The Old Ways’, is a semi-sequel to the novel City of Secrets, and written by that book’s author, Nick Horth. It sees the eponymous pair of Order of Azyr operatives hunting down a killer, and unravelling a plot that could destabilise the lands around Excelis.

    So that’s the Advent Calendar so far, and with eleven days still to run, who knows what wonders await? (Well, we do, but we’re not telling.) You can experience every story so far, and secure the remaining ones for yourself, with the Advent Subscription, which is not only a cracking collection but also gets you nine of the Quick Reads free – bargain.

    BLAdvent-Subscription2hfe.jpg


    Although we’re not going to reveal what’s coming in the Advent Calendar, we can look a little further forward, to Christmas Day, and our annual tradition of premiering a new novel as an eBook. We are delighted to announce that this will continue this year, with not one but two novels coming, one on Christmas Day and another on the 26th of December. We’re not going to tell you what they are, but we will give you a couple of clues.

    On Christmas Day, something stirs in a place of horror. Souls cry out in terror and are silenced, as a sleeper awakens and darkness falls…

    Boxing Day brings twists and turns in a quest for salvation that takes an unlikely hero into the heart of darkness, pursued by mighty foes and in search of something he doesn’t understand.

    Let us know what you think we’ll be premiering on the Black Library Facebook page!

  5. new short story from BL:

    Callis and Toll: The Old Ways

    Callis and Toll: The Old Ways

    A Warhammer Age of Sigmar story

    Agents Callis and Toll of the Order of Azyr investigate a murder in the marshlands – one that could have dire consequences for an entire community.

    READ IT BECAUSE
    A pair of characters from 'City of Secrets' get top billing in their own story – and it's just the first of many.

     

    THE STORY
    Agents Callis and Toll of the Order of Azyr venture into the vast marshlands east of the grand city of Excelis to investigate the death of the noble son of one of two warring clans. Was his death a tragic accident or vicious murder? A full-scale uprising could result if they're not careful – and this would cause untold death as the Stormcast Eternals get involved. So it falls to Callis and Toll to uncover the truths and save thousands of lives.

  6. So my LGS has confirmed that gavriel is going to on pre-order THIS saturday. So he's not the Order "herald" for malign portents.

    Which makes me wonder what they will release the 30th, they kind of have burnt all their cartridges they showed us (bar Orlock, but that's most likely going to go up the 23rd).

    Droost  is a vast metallic  desert in the realm of metal.

    Within Droost  is the khanate of Arlk where the story takes place.

    The story is about two witch hunters, A male named "Talorcan" and a female named "Esselt" who hunt down a  khorne chaos artifact that can possess people(it can possess only one person at a time) . Turning them into murder monsters, Causing a lot of massacres in the desert towns. I won't  spoil the ending.

    Is the name of the artefact, by any chance, Charu the soul-whip?

  8. The Witch Takers

    All Products

    The Witch Takers

    A Warhammer Age of Sigmar story

    Tracking the stolen contents of a Chaos warrior's tomb, a pair of Sigmarite witch hunters are drawn into a deadly conflict that leads to bloodshed and damnation.

    READ IT BECAUSE
    It's a look at the witch hunters of Azyr in the Mortal Realms, and at the ways in which the Dark Gods spread their influence over the innocent and peaceful.

    THE STORY
    Amidst the metal sands of the blazing deserts of Droost, a pair of witch hunters from the Order of Azyr discover the looted tomb of a champion of the Dark Gods – a tomb that is missing an ancient and dangerous artefact. As the pair set out to find who took the relic and see it destroyed, they find a trail of devastation and carnage – and daemonic trickery. Led to a peaceful oasis in the heart of the desert, the witch takers are drawn into a deadly conflict that will lead to untold bloodshed and damnation…

    Does WD connect the Lord Celestant to Malign Portents?  They didnt on the community release so we've assumed so far he is not connected, ive not got the new WD to check.

    No he isn't connected according to WD. He is also for december, when Malign portents is for, at the very soonest, january.

    Pre-orders 30th Dec, out 6th Jan is what I expect the next set of releases will be.

    I expect them on the community site 24th/25th of Dec

    Nah, doubt it.

    Pre-order 9th will be DA (this we know)

    Pre-order 16th will be ETB Nurgle/Primaris

    Pre-order 23th will be ETP Primaris/Nurgle (basically I HIGHLY doubt they will be released together).

    Pre-order 30th will be Orlocks and LC.

     

    In the case of them merging the ETBs together (which I don't entirely discard, it makes quite a lot of sense to have them together so kids can buy them for christmas) then the most likely chance is that we see the orlocks and the LC be a separate release with Gee-Dubs making a big announcement around the week of the LC's release along the lines of:  we end the year with AoS, we begin it with MOAR AoS!

  12. For several of the last few years, the Advent Calendar has included both eBook and MP3 audio dramas, and this year is no different – except that there are more audio dramas than ever before! This time around, no fewer than 10 of the 24 stories are full-cast audio adventures, complete with music and sound effects. We can reveal that three of these are Primarchs stories (of which only two are, strictly speaking, about primarchs…), and three are set in the haunted depths of the Mirrored City of Shadespire.

    Of the remaining four audio dramas, let’s just say that two feature big names from the Warhammer 40,000 universe, and the other two both star the same character from a lesser-known Space Marines Chapter, in two very different stories.

    What of the 14 eBook Quick Reads? Well, there are five from the Mortal Realms, including tie-ins to several existing and forthcoming novels, such as a new tale of Hamilcar Bear-Eater and a sneak peek at what David Annandale has planned for Neferata…

    The Dark Imperium plays host to four of the Quick Reads, covering such treats as a last stand of Adeptus Astartes, a look at the Cadians in the wake their planet’s destruction, and a tale of the Ynnari by Gav Thorpe.

    Lastly, there are five Horus Heresy stories, each set in and around the Imperial Palace in the last days, weeks and months before the arrival of Horus. Each covers a very different set of characters – including the Imperial Fists, Custodians, Malcador and, dare we say it, the Emperor Himself – but they all share common themes and set the mood on Terra as the clock counts down…

    As you can see, there’s plenty for everyone to enjoy in this year’s Black Library Advent Calendar, with more action, drama and excitement than you can shake a tainted axe at, as well as explorations of some settings and ideas that Black LIbrary have never ventured into before – it’s sure to be an exciting month.

    BLAdvent-Subscription2hfe.jpg

    As with previous years, you’ll be able to buy each story separately, but if you want them all – and want to save a Land Raider-load of money in the process – you’ll also be able to subscribe to the entire Advent Calendar, getting you instant access to each new story every morning, and at a single great price. Come back on Friday to find out more about that, and to see what the first story is. Here’s a hint: it involves a well-known warrior with a penchant for a particular metal and a bit of a rivalry with some guys who like the colour yellow…

    Caveat - I'm not in the know! However I do run a shop so have a chat with the trade team a lot and there have been some strong hints about AoS - some overt and some more subtle (like an awful lot of stuff coming off the trade list/module one list which normally hints at a rebox - Skaven and Nurgle hard to get at the moment for instance)

    Any  more specifics?

    Oh yeah, I'm leaving this at that. No intent on really spewing bile (well, MORE bile, that is.)

    After so much 40k and some strong hints from those in the know I strongly suspect that the first quarter of next year will be good for AoS releases! 

    ^_^


    All that said, I think this has been a great year for GW hobby and the rumour engine has been maddening and fun.

    I seem to recall that A) there were rumours about nurgle in february for sigmar B) deathrattle would be getting something in january. Plus malign portents.
