In some regions, a call of enlistment has lately been raised; for many a common man, the only exit to a hangdog life is the prospect of armed service. The super powers of Iron Kingdoms—Cygnar and Khador—are looking at the distinct possibility of war, and some men see this as an opportunity to rise about their cast lot and perhaps gain a bit of plunder along the way.
But not everyone’s a fighting man. There are still plenty of souls looking to make an honest—or dishonest—day’s wage, and a traveler in the Iron Kingdoms encounters all types. Sailors, dockworkers, apothecaries, and engineers—they’re all ready to wheel and deal or spin a tale or two. Fighters, priests, wizards, and cheats—they’re all ready to stake their claim to a life of adventure, be it scrounging for half-buried mechanikal parts in some black swamp, delving into a long forgotten Orgoth ruin, or ducking under the scything axe of an ash-belching warjack. Regardless of race or creed, regardless of station, the winds of change have begun to blow and the coming armed conflict is a forgone conclusion. Little can be done to halt the forces already set into motion. The only questions remaining are when all out war will finally erupt and what will emerge when the smoke and ash of conflict clears.
