In the Depths of the Under-Empire a Prophet has risen, claiming to
be the Avatar of the Horned Rat, the devious god of the Skaven people, sent to
lead the Skaven Empire to victory over the surface dwellers. Uniting many the clans under one banner, the Horned One and The Lords of Decay
have began the long dreaded invasion of the surface world. The bowls of
the Skavenblight growl with the endless hunger of millions while great
tunnels open up in all the lands above spilling forth legion upon legion of
hateful Rat-kin.
In the heart of Skavendom however there are whispers that an impostor
leads the Skaven nation and that The Council of Thirteen has plans of
their own….
