The smell of grave dirt and the blare of ancient horns announced the arrival of Vlad von Carstein and his Undead legions. Squaring off against the Repugnauts, Vlad attempted to raise yet more Undead minions but was thwarted by the nearby Ethrac. His arrival was fortuitous, for the badly battered Einhand Elite finally gave up their fight against the Glottkin and fled past Vlad and his Grave Guard, leaving Nurgle’s favoured sons to turn their attention on the Mortarch. In the shadow of the gatehouse, Talabheim’s Fury came to the rescue of the Greatswords, crushing a host of Plaguebearers beneath its wheels. Sadly, the engineer was too late, the Carroburg elite sliced apart by a screeching Morbidex, who goaded his Maggoth towards the Steam Tank.

Sensing a powerful foe nearby, Otto Glott steered Ghurk toward Vlad von Carstein and challenged him to single combat, the Putrid Blightkings slamming into the Skeleton horde next to them. Despite Vlad’s consummate skill as a swordsman, he barely scratched Ghurk before he was crushed by his vast tentacled arm. Cursing, Vlad reappeared in the regiment of Skeletons, finding himself face to face with Erythema Pox.

Across the battlefield, Karl Franz was set upon by the Plague Drones, the huge flies stabbing at him with poisoned talons.

THE FALL OF HEROES AND VILLAINS

With so many special characters fighting, it was only a matter of time before some fell.

Morbidex Twiceborn held the eastern gatehouse for several turns, battling Greatswords, Spearmen and even a Steam Tank, killing two heroes in the process. In the end, the Steam Tank rolled slowly, inexorably, over both him and his pox maggoth, crushing them to death.

At the same time, Karl Franz fought for his life against the Plague Drones. Hampered by tidal waves of rotten flies and maggots, he struggled to kill more than a couple of Plague Drones with Ghal Maraz before Deathclaw was cut down by their plagueswords. And so it was that the Plague Drones brought about his (first) demise.
