Nie wiem czy zauważyliście ale w każdym nowym kodeksie 7ed są fajne nowe historyjki, które pchają dalej całą opowieść 40k. Teraz w kodeksie Harlekinów jest ciekawy tekst o tym jak Slaanesh ma ocalić Eldarów w ostatnim starciu z Chaosem:

As the 41st Millennium comes to a close, more and more Eldar vanish into the webway, forsaking their former lives to take up the Harlequin’s mask. The Harlequins’ numbers are growing, and many among the Eldar wonder why. The truth is inspirational and terrifying in equal measure. At the very heart of the Black Library there lies a silver-lit vault. Therein stands a plinth made of finely graven obstinite, upon which rests a crystalline book said to contain the words of Cegorach himself. Since the Fall, the tome’s covers have remained closed, sealed shut with flickering chains of light. Yet now, long-awaited portents have come to pass. A fallen sorcerer seeks the lore of the library. A king stirs in his court of death and silence, preparing to rise once more. Within madness’ eye, the champion of the Ruinous Powers prepares to seize a realm long denied. As the signs have come to pass, so the bands of light about the tome have flickered and died. Now, at last, the tome has fallen open. Within its pages the Shadowseers have found a script, a secret final act that changes utterly the tale of the Fall. Penned in inks of light and shadow, these words present a slender hope, detailing an intricate, galaxy-spanning performance with the potential to change the fate of the Eldar race. Always, the strands of fate have pointed toward the victory of Chaos during the last, mythic battle known to the Eldar as the Rhana Dandra. Yet within the pages of the crystal tome is recorded Cegorach’s ultimate jest, a way to trick Slaanesh into expending all her power not to destroy the Eldar, but to save them. How such an impossibility could come to pass is unclear, for on this matter the final act is infuriatingly vague. Yet the Harlequins take their god’s words on faith alone, for their devotion to Cegorach is total and his methods beyond question or reproach. Thus they have begun the steps of this final dance, and will see it completed, or else face absolute destruction in the attempt.

Eee tam - wcale nie jest za długi ten fragment. Dawno takiego fajnego kawałka flafu nie czytałem.

sławny

Cokolwiek jest w tym notesie zapisane i tak jest niczym przy zawartości Super Tajnego Pudełka Grey Knightów :D

Inna świetna porcja flafu pochodzi z najnowszego kodeksu Dark Eldarów i dotyczy Bramy Khaina - szczelnie zablokowanego wejścia z Commoragh prosto do Immaterium. Vect postawia przed bramą 500 Incubusów, a potem porywa od inkwizycji Nullsów (gości którzy wyłączają moce Psioników, z Nullsów rekrutują się Culexusi) żeby zablokować gigantyczną inwazję Chaosu:

346497.M41 - Something has begun to pound slowly – rhythmically – impossibly – on the other side. Vect stations five hundred Incubi to watch over the Gate chamber as a delaying measure. He pays exorbitant sums to ensure their discretion, while simultaneously ensuring all those Incubi hired hail from brotherhoods who have defied or hindered his machinations in the past. As further insurance, Vect deploys several of his more esoteric arcane weapons within the chamber itself, ingenious failsafes that include temporal flux-mines, the Seventh Shard, and a tri-prismic dimensional mirror keyed to hurl anything reflected in its surface into the heart of a sun.

601.M41 - The Incubi standing guard over Khaine’s Gate report new and disturbing developments to Asdrubael Vect. In accompaniment to the slow, relentless pounding, the Gate has begun to vibrate at the microscopic level. Worse, those who stand too close to the portal report hearing whispered voices. Though he shows no outward signs of concern, Vect continues to lay new plans.

996.M41 - In the Undercore, the phenomena that beset Khaine’s Gate become ever more pronounced. Many of the strange portal’s guards have been driven mad by the whispering voices that now pervade the Gate chamber. Those who have not hacked each other apart or taken their own lives have begun carving ‘Let us in’ into the walls of the chamber, some scratching this unsettling mantra directly into their flesh. The air of the chamber shimmers with half-glimpsed shapes, while Mandrakes and shaderavens gather in increasing numbers in the tunnels around and about. Overlord Vect continues to suppress knowledge of these phenomena with cruel efficiency, while quietly relocating ever more of his own powerbase to hidden sub-realms behind multiple, well-guarded portals. A number of Archons who had believed their Kabals out of favour are delighted when Vect presents them with conciliatory gifts of prime territory, ceded from the ownership of the Kabal of the Black Heart and located directly above the Undercore.

995999.M41 - The Thirteenth Black Crusade surges from the Eye of Terror, armies flooding from across the Imperium to oppose it. Kabalite raids descend upon realspace in their thousands to take advantage of the mayhem, yet now battle is also joined in the Dark City. Through arcane channels, Lady Malys has learned of the developing situation around Khaine’s Gate. Fearing that Vect plans to intentionally trigger its opening and drown his rivals in Daemons, the Archon of the Poisoned Tongue activates assets all across the Dark City. Waves of empyric energy roll from the Eye of Terror to batter Commorragh, collapsing sub-realms and breaching portals. Bands of Kabalites, Wyches and Harlequins loyal to Malys or Vect engage in increasingly bitter skirmishes around the Undercore, oblivious to the irony that both factions are fighting to achieve the same end. Meanwhile, in a chamber filled with swirling madness, hairline cracks spread across Khaine’s Gate, and the caged Nulls begin to scream.

O ile zasady Eldarzy dostali wypasione to fluff nowego kodeksu jest dosyć leniwie napisany. Końcówka wspomina tylko że lembasy zaczęły zadawać ferajnie Abbadona straszliwe straty ("horrific damage") i że Feniks Lordy po raz pierwszy od tysiącleci zebrali się w jeden team:

999.M41
CHAOS ASCENDANT
Abaddon the Despoiler launches the greatest invasion of realspace ever seen. Ulthwé has waited long for this moment, and leads the craftworlds to war. The Eldar cause horrific damage to the Chaos Space Marine Legions on dozens of worlds, suffering untenable casualties in their turn as the minions of the Great Enemy fight back. The death toll rises ever higher, with no end in sight.

999.M41
RISE OF T HE PHOENIX
The Phoenix Lords gather together for the first time in millennia.

Maszta

fluff może nowych eldarów to nie rewolucja na miarę tego co było z necronami ale jest spoko. Jak dla mnie może za mało czuć poczucia zagłady, upadku, końca i beznadziei tej rasy.

Do do zasad się nie zgadzam :P

Algirdas

“Poczucie zagłady, upadku, końca i beznadziei” daje za to nowy kodeks Khorne Daemonkin. Chodzą i mordują wszystkich po kolei włączając w to Thousand Sonsów, Red Corsairsów i Emperor’s Children. Herlaki i Dark Eldarzy niestety też nie dały rady…

SLAUGHTER WITHOUT END
Khorne has been worshipped since the galaxy was young. Knowingly or not, every warrior that ever raised a blade has offered the Blood God praise. Still there are few mortals that have proved as fervent or faithful as the Khorne Daemonkin, whose ten thousand year rampage has seen Khorne presented with tribute like never before.

230.M40
SORCERERS’ BANE
On the Daemon world of Ylligith Maeraxes, the Brazen Beasts lay siege to the Azure Fortress. The Tzeentchian Sorcerers who defend it wield the unbound fury of the Warp to drive the attackers back, but soon the Beasts’ Daemon Engines smash a string of breaches in the fortress’ walls. Maulerfiends prowl into the stronghold at the head of pack upon pack of Flesh Hounds, and in a matter of days the Sorcerers are hunted down, their skulls crowning their own battlements for the glory of the Blood God.

183.M41
RED SAVIOURS
The Bloodgorged board a fleet of Emperor’s Children warships. After days of bloody deck-todeck fighting, the Daemonkin are victorious. They scuttle the ships and depart, unaware that they have inadvertently saved the Imperial hive world of Pyros.
316.M41
DANGEROUS PREY
After fierce fighting amid the macrotemples of Skeros, the Wych Cult of Tortured Hopes capture a Chaos Lord of the Skullsworn. Bearing him back toCommorragh, the Dark Eldar throw the Daemonkin champion into their gladiatorial arena. Their sport is spoiled, however, when a Bloodthirster bursts from their captive mid-battle. The Daemonic incursion that follows is catastrophic, and results in the utter destruction of an entire sub-realm of the Dark City.
793.M41
ALL IS DEATH
Like the fury of Khorne himself, the Wrath and the Eightscarred fall upon the Tau colony of Shau’Nesh. The aliens fight bravely, deploying incredible technologies to blast great furrows in the Khornate ranks. Still, the Tau are outnumbered and, despite their heroics, overrun. Crazed with battle-lust, the two Daemonkin hosts then fall upon one another, battling frenziedly until both are all but wiped out.
938.M41
INTO THE MAELSTROM
Leading a frenzied mass of lesser Daemonkin warbands, the Bloodgorged invade theMaelstrom. In a series of psychotic assaults, they cripple several of Huron Blackheart’s outlying
strongholds. Furious beyond words, the Tyrant of Badab turns the might of the Red Corsairs upon his aggressors. The war that follows lasts for long, bloody years.
983.M41
A CLEAR MESSAGE
Warmaster Abaddon sends envoys to demand the Skullsworn swear allegiance to his cause. Some months later, the envoys’ corpses are returned to Abaddon by leering Daemons, their heads missing and the rune of Khorne carved into their chests.
994.M41
DISASTER ON YNGROTH
Whilst pursuing Harlequins of the Masque of the Silent Shroud, the Wrath battle their waythrough the Grey Canyons of Yngroth. Just as the Harlequins seem cornered, a warhost fromCraftworld Yme-Loc springs from ambush, catching the Wrath in a devastating crossfire. Forlong moments the Eldar plan looks set to work, until Arbra’Gax, Bloodthirster of InsensateRage, bursts into reality. Led by this unstoppable demigod of war, the Khornate horde smashtheir way out of the Eldar ambush, which swiftly devolves into a massacre as the Blood God’s
forces punish their devious foes.

997.M41
ONE HUNDRED SKULLS
Responding to a daemonic incursion on Hyraq II, a Brotherhood of Grey Knights plunges into battle. Crimson lightning tears the skies as the Grey Knights drive the Daemons back into the Warp, only to face fresh assault by the Bloodgorged. Retreating to a ruined temple, the surviving Grey Knights fight for their lives. In death, every Daemonkin they slay brings forth one of the Daemons the Grey Knights had already banished, until they are overrun by the screaming horde.

998.M41
THE SWALLOWED WORLD
Gha’Kharax, Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury, leads the Eightscarred and Skullsworn against the Imperial fortress world of Almarit. The Daemonkin face elements of the Imperial Fists and Raven Guard, reinforced by several regiments of Tempestus Scions. The war grinds on long and bloody, but one by one the Daemonkin reconsecrate the planet’s furnace-temples in bloody ceremonies of ritual sacrifice. As the last shrine falls, Almarit is dragged whole into the Warp, claimed by Khorne as a new Daemon world.

999.M41
VISIONS OF BLOOD
Warmaster Abaddon’s 13th Black Crusade bursts from the Eye of Terror and falls upon the Cadian Gate. At the same moment, all across the galaxy, Khorne’s Daemonkin are stricken by bloody visions of carnage on a scale none have seen before. Compelled by their wrathful god, the Daemonkin turn as one and begin to carve a path toward the Cadian Gate. It seems like that, while there is blood still to spill, neither side will be safe in the war to come.
