1.5 The Red Bokha and the Purging of Kislev (2302 to 2517 IC).
1.4 The Battle of Kislev (Spring of 2302 IC).1.3 The Great War against Chaos (Late 2301 IC).1.1 Great Conquest of Kislev (1497 IC to 1524 IC).Countless generations of Kislevites have fought, bled, and died in the snowy tundra of those harsh northern lands, and it is thanks to these brave Kislevite warriors that the Kingdoms of Men have managed to flourish in the south, huddled together in their warm and safe homes, whilst the Sons of Kislev fight till they draw their last dying breath. Since the founding of this mighty kingdom, Kislev has been, since its creation, under siege by the murderous hordes of Chaos Undivided, a kingdom that sits forever at the brink of total annihilation. The inhabitants of Kislev are these very same people, a race of wolf-tough and self-reliant warriors, valiant and determined in the defence of their homeland against the hated marauders of the uppermost North. The climate is harsh and unforgiving, and only the strongest, most determined people can survive here. įrom the Worlds Edge Mountains to the east and the Sea of Claws in the west, Kislev stands at the very frontiers of Human civilisation in the Old World, a land covered in wide-open steppes and thundering icy rivers, where lonely villages stand isolated in the empty wilderness, while mighty cities rise from the landscape like great islands of stone. Ruled by a mighty monarch known as a " tzar," Kislev is a nation born from the saddle, its people's ancestry traced to the mighty horse-warriors of the Eastern Steppes many millennia ago. It is a powerful kingdom driven by the need to prepare for constant warfare that is known far and wide for having some of the greatest horsemen to ever roam the plains of the southern realms. Kislev, officially the Tzardom of Kislev, also known as the " Realm of the Ice Queen ," and to the Kislevites themselves as " The Motherland ," is the most northerly Human realm of the Old World.
