Book excerpt: The Old Ones came to the Warhammer World by means of a mystical Gateway at the North Pole that allowed their silver ships to cross the endless sea of space. They used their arcane technology to erect fantastic cities & restructure the environment. They ushered in a new age of enlightenment & civilization & were as gods to the primitive races of the Warhammer World. Then came the Great Catastrophe: the Gateway collapsed & its failure unleashed a force that not even the Old Ones could control. The incredible energy that had sustained the portal fell in on itself, tearing the fabric of reality asunder. The North Pole became a thoroughfare into the world of Daemons & the peaceful, ordered world of the Old Ones was crushed beneath a seething tidal wave of Chaos. The World of Warhammer is an encyclopedic exploration of this world where the good prodigies of the Old Ones struggle against the Chaos forces. The lands, races, & cultures of the known world, their magic, warriors, fantastic beasts, & strange creatures, & their histories, greatest battles, & most famous heroes & villains are all chronicled here along side hundreds & hundreds of full-color & black-and-white illustrations.
