THE STORY
Gotrek and Felix: unsung heroes of the Empire, or nothing more than common thieves and murderers? The truth perhaps lies somewhere in between, and depends entirely upon whom you ask...

Sometimes there comes a challenge that cannot be cannot be avoided, a test of skill that must simply be met and bested, lest you fall by the wayside and fail in all your ambitions. In a tavern somewhere in the Old World, the infamous Slayer Gotrek Gurnisson – who has killed trolls, giants, dragons, daemons and more besides – faces a contest that will require all of his skill, daring and determination. The Contest awaits him. Can he survive it?
