Warhammer: The End Times is a series of planned campaign books for Warhammer 8th Edition. The first sourcebook is Warhammer: Nagash, released in August 2014. The End Times begins part way through the original Storm of Chaos story line and retcons the original ending.
Storyline
Retroactive Continuity
The End Times alters the story originally presented in the 2004 Storm of Chaos summer campaign.
- In The End Times, Vlad von Carstein returns from the dead with an undead army. He intercepts the Chaos army invading The Empire.
- In the Storm of Chaos continuity, Valten was defeated by Archaon and was seriously wounded before Grimgor Ironhide intervened. Valten is later assassinated while recovering in an infirmary. In The End Times, Valten survives his battle with Archaon and continues to lead the Imperial Army.
- In the original Storm of Chaos continuity, Kislev was devastated by an initial invasion, but was eventually relieved by the Slayer Army and King Louen Leoncoeur's host. In The End Times, Kislev has been completely overrun by Archaon's host and ceases to be a functioning nation.
