Battletome: Kharadron Overlords (2020) is the second Battletome rulebook for the Kharadron Overlords faction for the 2nd Edition of Warhamer Age of Sigmar, and describes their history, background, and units.

Description

The Kharadron Overlords are masters of the skies, fearless duardin aeronauts who prize profit above all. They sail the clouds in steel-clad vessels armed to the teeth with cannons, bombs and bullet-spraying deckguns, matching the raw fury of daemons and monsters with devastating firepower. These technological wonders are powered by the lighter-than-air mineral known as aether-gold – the lifeblood of the great Kharadron empire.[1]

Far above the highest mountain peaks, a new power has arisen. In secrecy they have grown strong, developing new technology and weapons of war. Guided by their Code, the Kharadron Overlords have sent forth their sky-fleets, commanding to return with riches, or not at all.[1]

Battletome: Kharadron Overlords consilidates the place of this duardin army into the worlds of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. A militaristic, mercantile society detached completely from the other branches of duardin that populate the Mortal Realms, they treat war and trade as much the same thing - a means to amass wealth; and they excel at both. More than anything, they seek aether-gold - this lighter-than-air element is their society's lifeblood, holding their cities aloft, fueling their ships and powering their elaborate armour. Great sky-fleets of warships descend from dozens of sky-ports when a rich seam is discovered; the Kharadron Overlords will fight bitterly to accrue this vital substance, and the status it brings.[1]
