The Leaven is a series of small forges butted up against a warp shoal that limits warp travel into and out of the region.  They survived the Age of Strife through isolation, distributed manufacturing hubs that were entirely self sufficient, and dense resources that proved impossible to deplete during the small windows of safe warp travel before the Great Crusade.  Leaven Forgemasters are proving stubbornly neutral in the overall Heresy, selling weapons to both sides and using their isolated position to make a quick invasion untenable.  Both Loyalists and Traitors are beginning to probe the Leaven’s warp routes for a path into the heart of the forges and forcing a decision of which side to support.

This is a Narrative (not competitive) event for 3,000 point (no Primarchs) Horus Heresy armies.  Player matchups will be determined based on tournament and objective points, but there will be no prizes for the first place or second place finishers.  Prizes will be based on random draws, with players getting an extra entry for each of the following criteria they meet:

• Generic Warlord with a custom name
• Painted HQ
• Fully Painted Unit
• Fully Painted Army (worth 2x entries)

Players will pledge for the Loyalist or Traitor cause, and their games will build points to determine the outcome of the event.  There will be 2 rounds over the course of 1 day, starting at 10:30a.  Check-in Starts at 10a.

Note: Horus Heresy is a narrative game, so please bring a fun and balanced list. This will ensure everyone has a positive play experience. Missions may be lop-sided to illustrate the ebb and flow of war stretched across galaxies… We cherish competitive players and their knowledge of the game, but ask players who feel like they are in that category bring armies that they would struggle to go 3-0 with.
