The Imperial Navy sent an armada of warships to the Sea of Claws, braving the many leviathans and sea monsters that had begun to appear in greater numbers. Admiral Kronenheim led the fleet, seeking to sink any marauders long before they could make landfall. Nordland redoubled its coastal patrols, but Ostland took the most aggressive steps. Commanded by Valmir von Raukov, the fiery Elector Count, the grand principality of Ostland prepared for the onset of war. Von Raukov was everywhere, mustering new state troops, bolstering the border forts, and rallying his troops to meet the enemy head on. It was he who suggested reprisal raids, taking the fight into Norsca itself. The first counterattack set forth in 2513, returning late in the year with the broken prows of seven longships and the carven beams of a Great Hall as proof of the destruction of several coastal villages. Many hail von Raukov as a true hero of Ostland and toasted his name.

Chaos incursions start to increase once again. The attack on the Empire is unlike anything seen in recent memory. The roiling storms within the Realm of Chaos burst forth with unbridled fury. The skies blaze with multi-coloured lightning, seeringly vibrant against the oncoming blackness. Spring meltings brought a wave of northern barbarians, although in fact this was little more than the displaced tribes that had been driven away by the growing wars further north. Encouraged by the rampant Winds of Chaos, more attacks followed. An army descended from Norsca across the Sea of Claws. It set towns along the coasts of Nordland ablaze, but was not large or bold enough to threaten the major cities and keeps. Another even larger host plunged southwards on a broad front into Kislev, causing a swathe of destruction. Although much momentum dissipated in the endless steppes, some of the farflung warbands of that wave bypassed the border forts of Ostland and caused much havoc in that province. The third attack was led by Prince Sigvald the Magnificent. Sigvald's army blazed through Kislev and into Ostland on a three month rampage until it was finally blunted at the battle of the Temple of Skulls. A coalition of many Imperial states had come to aid the beleaguered province of Ostland, who, beset by so many dangers had put forth a call for help. But these attacks are just a foreshadowing of what was to come.

The Bretonnian's Year of Woe. Tzeentch sents Kairos Fateweaver to steal teh twelve enchanted artefacts once possessed by the companions of Gilles le Breton. So important is this goal to Tzeentch that he dispatches the greater part of his armies to the mortal plane. Tombs of companions are ransacked, nearby towns razed and countless thousands of Bretonnians - high and low born alike die at the tentacles of Tzeentchian Daemons. Castles give no defence, for their crude stones are easily tumbled by the sorceries of Pink Horrors or transmuted by the warpfires of Flamers. Only at Grail shrines, where the power of the Lady still holds strong, can give shelter. Worse, with each artefact recovered, Fateweaver's Daemons grow even more powerful. In the initial battles about Montfort and Quenelles, the lances and valour of the Bretonnian Knights cost the Daemonic host greatly. By the time of eight artefacts had been lost, only the boldest dukes would even consider taking the field. In the twelth month, with only single artefact outside of Fateweavers cluthes, only King Louen chanced his arm -and he lost far more battles than he won. Finally battle is Siege of Moussillon where the last artefact is. In there, suddenly, also Nurgle joins the battle sending K'gath Plaguefather to lead the his Daemon host. In there Tzeentch host and Nurgle host and Bretonnians fight until both leaders of Daemonic host are destroyed and both Daemon armies vanish.

Beastmen hordes trouble lands of Middenland, Nordland, Hockland, Talabecland, Reikland and Ostland. Imperial army is still active hunting remains of Archaons horde. Also thousands of people are trying to return their homes. Then there are dark rumours of scandals, cultist plots and mutant uprisings involving Ruinous Powers in Altdorf, Nuln and Talabheim. Finally from the ashes of war rises new Sigmar cult involving chosen child. Stories tell, that ancient evil in the darkness, the Vampires, talk about old proficies. Also there are rumours about dreaded Skaven, but many considere this just old-wife tales. If this is not enough, also the infamous Prince Vladimir Mikael Kloszowski has returned to the Empire and reformer The Glorious Revolution of the People (The GRP) publishing the "Griffon's Tail".

Birth of Siggurd, son of Rufus Leitdorf, grandson of Marius Leitdorf.

SotE

Mighty earthquake shooks the Howling Hills, bringing tales of fresh Gromril seams and wealth to be had in the area of the old mine. A band of Dwarf miners are despatched to investigate. They found far more than they had bargained for. A short time later, a band of Night Goblins, ever on the search for new cracks and crannies to infest, came upon the mine, finding the insane Dwarf and his dead companions. The lone miner was captured by greenskins, who discerned from his rantings that an object of great power was to be found somewhere in their new lair. Perhaps the location of the Crown would thus have remained secret, but a Dwarf rescue force led by Thane Grombold of the famous Krud clan came in search of the lost miners. During the chaos that followed, a blackhearted Night Goblin came upon the crown by chance, slaughtered his fellows and fled with it into the forest. Long lost dreaded Nemesis Crown (made by Alaric the Mad) was finally found again.

10), Nemesis

Nemesis Crown Conflict starts. Suddenly rumours about the Crown spreads through the Old World. Now, armies muster to retrieve the Crown. Beastmen (leaded by rebirth Moghur), Humans (both Bretonnians and the Empire), Dwarfs, Elves (even Teclis returns to Old World), Chaos, Ogres, Orcs (leaded by mighty Grimgor Ironhide), Skaven and Restless Dead (both Vampire Counts leaded by vampire Waldakir Rahtep and Tomb Kings leaded by Lord of Khemri Settra) ready their forces to hunt the Crown. Also even Lizardmen (Lizardmen of South Lands) and Dark Elves (Malekith sends his raiders with Black Arks) get involved. Everyone has their own motives. From the Empire Karl Franz himself joins the hunt with Lector Luthor Huss (Bretonnian year 1548; Dwarf year 5526/7049).

Battle of Chaos Moon. Great final battle is fought in the strange night of Chaos Moon Morrslieb. Chaos Moon waxed, a terrible stirring, felt in the soul of every living creature, swept the land. The wind died and the light of the moons become strangely pallid. Every Wizard, every practitioner of the arts of magic in the region, was struck by a sudden fear, as if some ancient will from before creation had looked deep within his unworthy heart and found him wanting. The Emperor's Wizards were struck blind, for the winds of magic blew no longer. Grimgor's shamans gibbered empty nonsense as any clue of the Crown's hiding place was lost. The sorcerers of Chaos slunk away into the night, abandoning their lords, for they knew the end was come. Even Teclis, most accomplished of High Elven magic users, felt the echoes of aeons-old thought touching his soul, and he alone knew that the Mage-Priests of Lustria had awakened to take a hand in events from their distant temples. To the Skaven, the sudden lull in the winds of magic was so terrifying as to invoke widespread panic in their ranks. The Grey Seers squealed in horror, for they knew deep in their putrid hearts that they, and their entire race, had no place in this world, and neither did the Nemesis Crown. In distant Altdorf, the night sky was illuminated by blinding fireballs and incandescent explosions as a battle between invisible foes erupted. Though none could see them, the citizens wailed that the armies of the Undead had come to reclaim what was theirs and that only the Colleges of Magic could save them. The Wizards battled as the night wore on, a great many of their number falling, withered and dry, to the spells and curses of an unseen foe. None would know what armies besieged Altdorf that night, for no corpses would be left to tell the tale. Only the Wizards themselves knew how close Altdorf had come to disaster at the wizened hands of the Tomb Kings of Khemri. Nemesis Crown Conflict ends. Finally Crown was secured by the Dwarfs who took it to their holds and locked away for good...

Notes About the Timeline 1) Why Leon de la Tete D'Or? In WFRP1 time (before changes made by GW) king of Bretonnia was not Louen, but Charles de la Tete D'Or. Now, if Leon would actually be de la Tete D'Or in birth name (and Louen Leoncoeur is more calling name) it would actually suit better for older documents, some novels...etc. Just idea. 2) This is another idea I had when I read about Crom's history. First: Crom followed Archaon some decades. Second: He remained in the memory of Kurgan as a legendary chieftain. I was thinking why not actually put the meeting of Crom and Archaon on the Timeline. With this year (2503) Crom has followed Archaon couple of decades before SoC starts. He is middle-aged now, but powerful still (and who really knows has he actually aged...). What ever, he was powerful chieftain in the beginning of century and he is even more powerful and feared ruler after SoC. 3) In some other sources it is stated that Beast in Velvet and Warhawk hero "Filthy" Harald is sacked three years before events of Beast in Velvet from the watch. So, I placed his sacking to 2505, but placed infamous Waterfront War year earlier (one of the last things he did as Captain before sacking from the watch). 4) Warhammer Fantasy Battle:Empire -book states that challenge for Supreme Patriarch is held for every eight years. But in both WFRP1 and WFRP2 Realms of Sorcery it is only seven years. I'll go for seven years. In RoS1 it is stated that the current years is last year for Thyrus Gormann to held the office (and then we have the duel again). Well, if RoS1 happens in 2512, then the duel is 2513. From there we can count the Duel years: ...2499, 2506, 2513, 2520, 2527, 2534... In the WFB 8th Edition Empire book mentiones that Supreme Patriarch is Balthasar Gelt in 2516. 5) Von Mecklenbergs are not any longer Electors of Sudenland during the TEW. So, Johann is probably last Elector Count before giving this status to Toppenheimers. I placed this after Warhawk novel, but before TEW. I found out that Grand Baroness Etelka is his cousin from Mad Alfred's site. Don't know were he found that, but it works. 6) Now, there isn't any Middenmarshal named Kurt Heinwald in CoC or AoM books? So, he must have ended his career somehow about this time. I think sudden death is good explanation. 7) This is just my speculation again. 8) Now this is really connecting WFRP1 and WFRP2 rules. RoS1 probably is based on the year 2512 or 2513. New Patriarch of Light Order is Hubert Grünwald there. Well, RoS2 gives idea it should be Egrimm Von Horstmann. So, Grünwald is murdered soon after he takes his position and Van Horstmann takes the position instead. He is three years Patriarch and is finally revealed in year 2516, when he escapes to Screaming Hills. GW might have idea that this happened little earlier, but it suits this way the Timeline well. Grand Theogonist Volkmar would actually be Grand Theogonist also if we go for happenings given in EaW. In the WFB:Warriors of Chaos it is mentioned that Egrimm Von Horstmann is corrupted in the year 2457. This is possible, but he has then hide this corruption for REALLY long time. 9) In Nemesis Crown (check Vampire Counts from Official Site) there is following statement: "...Waldakir took wing to the haunted land of Sylvania. As one of the eldest of his kind, other Vampires heeded his call. Many of Sylvania's Undead had been leaderless since the death of Mannfred von Carstein and were easily bent to Waldakir's will...". So, someone or something kills bad-old-Mannfred after SoC. Maybe a good adventure idea for experienced players. OR is he? That was my first idea, but I think it might mean that Waldakir has taken the lead for past decades (or hundred years) when Mannfred has been missing. Maybe Mannfred is building his position after SoC? 10) There is no official year currently for Nemesis Crown conflict, but it happens sometime (not very far) after SoC. This is what I taught. 11) These entries are part of my Norsca Project and found from the Timeline: Norsca also. Most of this information is based on the WFB, SoC, The Citadel Journal and Liber Chaotica material, but also expanded by myself. 12) These entries are from the notes from hapimeses -site (Andy Law's site, check Links) forum. They were cut from the Tome of Salvation.
