About Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat follows the adventures of Morgan Bernhardt, the
commander of the Grudgebringer mercenaries and leader of the Grudgebringer Cavalry regiment.
Once a star student of the great Gunnery School Officer Academy, Bernhardt’s love for gold and
glory had him cast out of the school and into the welcoming arms of the mercenary life. With a
fine steed to carry him to battle, his dwarven-forged, magical sword Grudgebringer in his hand
and an army at his helm, he and the Grudgebringers have travelled the length and breadth of the
Old World, bringing honour and fame to his house. However, an insidious plot by the Skaven Grey
Seer, Thanquol and his accomplice, Orc Warboss Urgat Rip-Eye, is uncovered by Bernhardt, forcing
him and his troops to defend the Empire. With Paymaster Dietrich ensuring that your efforts are
justly rewarded, join Bernhardt and the Grudgebringers as they enter the maelstrom of war and
fight for glory, the Empire and, most importantly, gold!
As the first ever video-game adaption of the Warhammer world, Shadow of the Horned Rat not
only brings the table-top adventure to life in this real-time strategy, but adds its own story to the
wondrous mythos. With over 25 individual troops to choose from, you can create and lead your
own army to battle across the many fields of the Old World. You can also forge your own story in
this adventure, choosing to follow the main story and defeat the Skaven and Orc forces, or accept
the work of the many patrons Paymaster Dietrich can procure. With increasing difficulty and
expansive lore, this adaptation is a fine first-step for the franchise and a must-play for both RTS
and Warhammer fans alike.
