The on-going Broken Realms storyline enters a new phase with Teclis, a 152-page hardcover sourcebook that covers the Archmage Teclis’ bid to rid the realms of the undead menace Nagash. This follow-up to last year’s Morathi focuses on the Lumineth Realm-lords, Maggotkin of Nurgle, and Death factions. The book features a history of the war and new background and game rules for the newer Lumineth Realm-lords units, including those described in the Battletome: Lumineth Realm-lords (see “Games Workshop Will Release “Warhammer: Age of Sigmar’ ‘Lumineth Realm-lords Collection’ and ‘Battletome: Lumineth Realm-lords’”). Also included are new Allegiance abilities, rules for fighting in cities, six battleplans, and new warscroll battalions. MSRP is $40.00.
