Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress is getting its final expansion this weekend as Games Workshop add Ascension into the mix for budding adventurers who brave its labyrinthine halls.

There is no longer any safety on Precipice and instead in the Quest To Endure you will see you and your companions searching for a stronghold whilst the Blackstone Fortress itself continuously changes around you. This race means that the quest is way more intense and should never be the same each time you attempt it. You'll also find that you're now facing off against some of the deadliest entities in the stronghold, the Guardian Drones.

With these new towering foes for you to take on and the fate of your entire crew in the balance, this seems like the proper climactic ending that Blackstone Fortress deserves. I have to give credit to Games Workshop for following through on the support for this game and providing those who are playing it with loads of additional stories beyond the base game. It's the same kind of support that I wish the original Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower had received.
I am sure that big fans of Warhammer Quest are going to have some thoughts on the story so far and if you have been playing this adventure board game then it would be great to hear your thoughts as it seems like this has been a very fun ride!
Are you going to be picking up the finale?

I’ve had the core game since 2018 (or whenever it came out), but never bought the expansions. In fact I still haven’t played the game! But it will likely be opened soon with my boy as we play it through. Once I heard this was the final, I went on a buying frenzy to buy all the expansions over the last week. I’ve been very lucky and got everything except Abominable Intellect. So I’ve got No Respite (probably the last box in Australia!), Traitor Command, Dreaded Ambull, Escalation, Endless Peril and Advanced Arsenal (without paying ebay prices!). The only thing… Read more »
Being late to this game, I looked at getting the core set and found it unavailable everywhere. I wasn’t going to pay extortionate Ebay prices. So, does anyone know if GW will release the core game again or is that it?
