"Cool winds blow across the empty fields of Reikland, wiping away the memory of sun-bleached grains and summer days. Thoughts turn now to the long, bleak nights of the coming winter, and the foreboding darkness that accompanies the death of another year. The sickly green visage of the Chaos moon begins to flicker and change, and the superstitious people of the world hide themselves away behind locked doors, and pray not to fall prey to the foul terrors of the Daemon Moon.
Now, with the war in full swing, the horrors of the Daemon Moon are worse than ever. Malevolent creatures borne out of the fabric of Chaos itself descend upon the world like daemon locusts, intent upon devouring the souls of every living creature they encounter.
The Daemon Moon shines its baleful light down upon the world. The screams of countless tortured victims mingle with the howls of their daemonic tormentors. Who will stand against the hordes of Chaos?"
The Live Event 'Daemon Moon Rises' is now live on all servers. Check our event page to discover the dangers and rewards that await you.
Please note: This seasonal event is not linked to the ‘Daemonic Gifts of Khorne’ event introduced in today's patch. The Gifts of Khorne can appear any time from now on, just keep an eye on you Tome of Knowledge.

Highlights
Live Event ‘Daemonic Gifts of Khorne’
Takers of Skulls, The Horned Ones, Hunters of Blood, Blood Crushers, Drinkers of Blood; the Daemons of Khorne have many names and many forms. Though the legions of Khorne dwell in the Realm of Chaos, occasionally they are able to enter the mortal world where the influence of Chaos is strongest. They fight not for honour, not for wealth, not even for victory – they fight for fighting’s sake, and for the favour of their wrathful lord.
Scenario Shakeup
The tide of battle continues to shift! A number of old scenarios are making their return, some are retiring for the moment, and others are shifting tiers.

Patch notes for Patch 1.4.7 were posted last week, but due to some issues with tool tips we delayed opening the test server. There are still a few known issues with tool tip displays; however, we have decided to open the PTS to give you as much time as possible with the new patch!
