After years of invasions and warfare, the Barony of Westerland stands upon the brink of destruction, its northern reaches overrun by the forces of Chaos. The warriors of Marienburg discover an unexpected ally when a grand fleet of Cathayan junks arrives in the Manaansport Sea, heralding the arrival of Miao Ying, the Storm Dragon.

This supplement explores the Armies of Grand Cathay even more deeply, and includes additional rules to help you get the most out of them in your games of Warhammer: The Old World. It includes expanded lore, delving into the relationships the nation of Grand Cathay has with the inhabitants of the Old World and the events that led to the sailing of the Jade Fleet. There are rules for allying your Armies of Grand Cathay with the Empire of Man, additional terrain rules, a guide to multiplayer battles, and a series of linked scenarios to play. There are also additional magic items for your Armies of Grand Cathay, including weapons, armour, talismans, and more.
