1. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Dwarfs 8th Edition changed the Dwarfen years. Two different years are now
given. First one is the original timeline given in Dwarfs: Stone and Steel (WFRP1 sourcebook) and second from
the WFB book.
2. This timeline is what timeline was before Games Workshop The End Times Campaign -changes (2014-2015)
during the Storm of Chaos and beyond that point.
2500 Louen Leoncoeur (Leon de la Tete D'Or?) crowned king of Bretonnia. He is 1), WFB, KoG, BoD,
immediately concerned with the "Mousillon Problem", strengthening the Cordon GW
Sanitaire and assisting the dukes of Lyonesse and Bordeaux in patrolling their
borders (Bretonnian year 1522).
Incursions of Chaos grow increasingly active. GW, WFB, D:S&S
-(2510) At different times, Golgfag Maneater fights both for and against Orc Warboss WFB
Gnashrak Badtooth. His deeds rise Ogre's infame, but also rebutation as a
daring and unbeatable mercenary captain.
Famous Ice Witch Kazahaila Yevschenko, originally from Erengrad and keeper RotIQ
of Frosthome for over fifty years, disappears in the oblast (Kislev year 976).
Styrkaar, son of a Varg Jerg (=chieftain) Svengor of Sortsvinaer clan (minor 11), LC, SoC
tribe) from Novgoborg, kills his father and takes the leadership of his clan. He is
currently eighteen summers old and very respected by his clan members. This
is done by Sle'zuzu, a demonic entity whom had been inhabiting Styrkaar's mind
since the young Champions birth. Styrkaar's mind merged with that of Sle'zuzu
after he murdered his father and Styrkaar changes also physically. His teeth
lenghtened into delicate fangs and his skin took on an unnatural glow from
within, as if a cold light burned just beneath the surface. For he was truly been
touched by the Gods. Within a year he was King of Vargs. Styrkaar became
living legends as he traveled and fought enemies with his growing warhird and
his strange serpent-steed. This continued two decades. For he killed Vandred
the Majestic, former Champion of Slaanesh, destroyd dread Karnak and his
devoutees of Khorne, and the mysterious Asgeiir and his masked warriors of
Tzeentch. He eventually becomes great champion of Slaanesh and also one of
The Four generals of Archaon.
2501 Felix, student and known poet, has a duel with Wolfgang Krassner and kills him. Slayer
He is expelled from the University. This causes argument with his father Gustav
Jaeger and Felix leaves home. Loremaster Borek travels to Middenheim and
meets up with wizard Maximillian Schreiber. They discuss about protective
magic. Those two travel/adventure together some years. Loremaster Borek
starts planning new expedition to Karag Dum.
Hrofil Halfdane (Sarl), known mercenary, is in ship that sunks in a great storm. ToS
Hrofil prays for Malor (Manann) for mercy, and when he is washed up alive on
the northern coast of the Empire, he gave thanks to Malor (Manann) by offering
his blade to the service of the cult. He joins templar order of Sons of Manann.
Popular Press (Middenheim) publishes Famous Mass Murderers of Our Lands CD
by Johann Biedenhopf, which details also happenings in the dreaded Castle
Drachenfels.
Young Hedge-Wizard (Hedgefolk) Markus Fischer is found by Lord Magister SoE
Krammovitch of the Grey Order plying his trade. He is captured and taken to the
Colleges, where he stays and learns the "right-way" of the Winds of Magic.
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.
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.
