Rally your army and prepare to tackle an epic weekend-long Warhammer 40,000 Crusade event using White Dwarf's Rising Tomb campaign rules.
About this event
Part two of this exciting Crusade event will follow your forces as they play through five Crusade games following the Rising Tomb campaign. Depths of the Tomb lets you string together a tense and exciting narrative over five games of Warhammer 40,000. Players will build a map consisting of different districts and explore it together, battling one another in games of Warhammer 40,000 as they do so. Along the way, they will gain new abilities and be able to raid any Necron vaults they find, securing powerful pieces of xenotech in the process and upgrading their forces.
Our Crusade event has been carefully crafted to present a format that appeals to the broadest variety of players possible. We will provide a brief outline here, but a lot of the information and storyline will evolve over the course of the weekend. If you have never attended a Crusade style event before you’ll be in for an awesome time as you expand your force using the Crusade system, as well as getting to roll dice in the battered wastelands of the Warhammer 40,000 Universe

Crusade forces are personal journeys that Warhammer 40,000 players can take with their armies. However a Crusade weekend at Warhammer World is more than just playing five games against other enthusiasts. You are taking part in a story. As such expect the Missions to reflect this. Objectives will probably be there to help drive the narrative, and who knows what else could happen to enhance your games…
No matter what happens we hope you will all play within the spirit of the event as this will enhance not only your weekend, but also the weekend for those lucky enough to play against you.
The event will follow the Crusade guidelines laid out in the Warhammer 40,000 Rulebook, but you can rest assured that there will be other items and equipment that you can spend those precious Requisition points on as well as those available in the Rulebook and Codex's. You may also find that some objectives and actions within the games will allow you to gain extra Ranks or Battle Honours.
