The wheel of the seasons has turned, ushering out the sun’s last warmth with bitter blasts of northern winds. As snow creeps down to block mountain passes and lock the Warhammer world in the icy talons of winter, the citizens of the Old World raise their mugs high; the time of Keg End is at hand. In an epic celebration fraught with boasting, toasting, and epic fireworks, the Dwarfs empty their stores of ales and beers, they celebrate the event known as Keg End – to bring luck in the new year and make room for stronger, better brews. Meanwhile, the forces of Destruction scramble to ruin the celebration, by guzzling all the Dwarf brews first!
Seek out Josef Bugman within Altdorf, and Wuzzaks da Brewmasta in the Inevitable City, to partake in this grand battle for booze! Rally at your capital's taverns, slay your hated (or loved) enemies, and learn about the true value of coin! You will also run into the legendary Gotrek Gurnisson and Skarsnik, the Crooked Moon Warboss, who will send both Order and Destruction on an epic adventure to liberate valuable war spoils and brews for this year's successful end celebrations!
