Thoughts or ideas how it will play in factions or on the table?

I have been reading a bunch of the Excursion series of WMH lately. Haven't touched Storm Break though as I am waiting for it to come out s I can buy. From the previous fiction though we see a lot playing out.

In "Godless" Severius dies during a Skorne invasion of Tower Judgement. He tells Tristan that he wants Kreoss to be the next high hierarch but instead of going to the Northern Crusade where Kreoss is at, he goes to Imer. There, Feora learns of Severius' death and ends the Northern Crusade, leaving Kreoss and crew stranded and consolidates her vote with the council of hierarchs.

At the same time in the first Acts of War, Vlad is given semi independence for Umbrey and the Umbrean portions of Lael on the condition that he can keep those areas.

With the Northern Crusade being stranded, Umbrey rolling Old Faith heavy, and the Infernals we can see it play on the tabletop in the new cav theme that combines Menoth and Khador units.

Feora being part of the Dark Masters theme also reflects her pride seeking outside forces to help her consolidate influence in the Protectorate and Grymkin being in the theme that fights the Infernals also makes sense.

Spoilers on the Stormbreak tech

Spoiler:
Stryker stops a shipment of Rhulic technology to Khador. He reveals
that what he's stopping are arcane antigravity drives being used to
construct skyships with the capability to move troops. Cygnar has this tech
and he's afraid that seeing the shipment means that Khador has the
technology as well.

Irusk demonstrates the tech to Strakhov, indicating that the seizure of
the Rhulic drives could be circumvented with help from Circle Orboros
and he has a live skyship and two others ready for action.

Stormbreak? Is that a new novel or something?

Stormbreak is the league Acts of War is the fluff that comes with? I think.

It is both. They released part of the novel as league fiction whose outcome was determined by the Stormbreak narrative event. The event will conclude in LnL and the result will appear in a novel.

Thank you. I was a big fan of some of the fcition work they produce but was really disappointed when they cut back on it.
