THE ARGOVON WAR!

[@Baldermort]

THE ARGOVON WAR Flashpoint Part 2. A dramatic reading of the collected Flashpoint: Argovon from White Dwarf 459 - stories written by Callum Davis. Lore from the same source. This is a dramatic reading only as some may have missed it. Also to show what is contained in the monthly publication from Games Workshop, White Dwarf. A goldmine of visual and narrative enjoyment that extends to all of the many games and hobby elements in all of their many ranges. The flashpoint at Argovon involved Sisters of Battle, Astra Militarum/Imperial Guard, Black Templars against Necrons in the Pariah Nexus. The second part here involves Blood Angels Successors, The Atlantean Spears and Guard Elements, against the Necrons and Genestealer Cults.

[@themerryharridan8409]

Every day I can’t get over the sheer greatness of this community. The amount of work done by the fans is...one of the brightest facets of the hobby. I don’t play. I was raised on tabletop games when they were (here in the U.S.) mostly civil war or WWII, Starship Troopers etc. These were mostly maps and cardboard pieces. Warhammer came out when I was a freshman in college. I got married and started having babies (my hobby lol). I’m trying to catch up on 30 years of lore. Thank you guys, you really are helping a Sister out! Baldermort, put your merch link in the description!

[@Baldermort]

Oh thank you. Ah, I don;t bother as very little is bought. I don;t want to be pushy. I did an advert and everything. I have pushed as much as I can without feeling awful. Its just a mug and some tops. Its also only there as people asked for it. :) Welcome back to warhammer, sister. :)

superb as usual =D thanks big B

[@jasonulysess3652]

So want to be sure I understand this. The Necrons detected a major Genestealer infestation that was concentrated in an area that a little orbital bombardment would of reduced to a hole in the ground. Instead they draw out forces from the city and when they encounter more resistance than expected for weeks on end they begin reducing the biomass of the area to ash. Meanwhile the local Inquisitor is pulled away from her personal mission of wiping out Xenos races that might be a threat in a few thousand years in order to supply Xenos intel that every lieutenant in the Imperial Guard should be briefed on before leaving officer school. A wonderful example of the Imperium's greatest enemy is it's self.

They might as well run if the Necrons are there its to late no matter the kills they'll always be back. "That man is beset at all quarters by traitors, mutants and fiends is self-evident. But in truth none of these evils shall be our undoing. When the end comes it will be not at the hand of any mortal being of this or any other realm: death will come at the hands of the ancients, those who determined our fate aeons before we stood erect upon the holy ground of Terra and gazed up into the starry night." - Second Book of Admonitions
