For this was the great power of the Lords of the Dark Empire¸ that they valued nothing on all the Earth¸ no human quality¸ nothing within or without themselves. The spreading of conquest and desolation¸ of terror and torment¸ was their staple entertainment¸ a means of employing their hours until their spans of life were ended. For them¸ warfare was merely the most satisfying way of easing their ennui.
"The Dark Empire of Granbretan reaches out to conquer the world! Within his life-sustaining Throne Globe¸ the immortal King-Emperor Huon raises a withered hand and a million beast-masked warriors charge across the Silver Bridge. They desire to conquer the world¸ to enslave all humanity so that the mad Granbretanians can indulge in their twisted lusts or depraved hatreds. No army in Europe can stand against the flame-lances and foul sorceries of the Dark Empire. No force in all the world can staunch the wounds they inflict - save for the eldritch influence of the Runestaff!
"War is coming. Where will you make your stand against the Dark Empire?
