“The Empire at War” is designed to replace the old GW publication “The Empire in Flames” as the finale of “The Enemy Within” campaign. Why bother rewriting the finale given that second edition WFRP will be set nearly ten years after most of the events in the original WFRP campaign? The answer is two-fold. First, a significant amount of the Warhammer background has changed since the early 1990s when EiF was released, rendering much of the events in that publication obsolete. Second, there is a need among us old folk to have a more plausible transition from the “old” background to the “new.” Some may wonder why we didn’t just take the outline of the proposed “Empire in Chaos” manuscript that James Wallis so graciously made available to many rabid fans and use it as a basis for a more finished adventure. Simply put, that outline belongs to Herr Wallis and is not ours to do what we can with it. Moreover, there are certain aspects of the plotline of that draft which we do not believe is consistent with all that has gone before. That said, it is our intent to use some of the subplots he added to “The Power Behind the Throne” supplement. The “Empire at War” (“EaW”) adventure assumes that the players have spent most of the year (2513 I.C.) completing the task set before them in “Something Rotten in Kislev.” We know there are those who are not particularly keen on that series of scenarios as written (including some of the writers for this project), so it may come as a pleasant surprise that Simon Dennett is working on a piece for Warpstone which will provide some modifications to that supplement. In addition, some might want to modify Tim Eccles’ “A Pass Too Farside” to use in place of SRiK. In any event, the PCs need to be removed from the Empire for the year between PbtT and EaW. Introduction The Beginning of the End Empire at War 1 Whatever adventure is used, the thing to keep in mind is that it need not be directly related to TEW campaign. There is a view that holds the whole idea behind SRiK was that powers in Middenheim needed a place to send the PCs to be rid of them. The hope was the PCs would be unlikely to survive the rigours of Kislev and, with their deaths, the secrets exposed in the PBtT would be extinguished with the newly inducted Knights Panther (incidentally, each PC should wear a medallion which identifies them as members of the Knights Panther). That the PCs (mostly) survived will impress certain influential and powerful people in Middenheim. Perhaps the PCs could be put to use to further the interests of Middenheim, if not the Empire?
