Silberwald is a small town in Stirland. During the Skaven Wars after 1111 IC, it was the site of the infamous Battle of the Fellwald. Silberwald had been mostly spared the Black Death and Skaven attacks, but hordes of refugees overwhelmed the town's resources as thousands fled from the Undead attacks in Sylvania of the necromancer Frederick van Hal in 1122 IC.[1a]
The battle saw the combined Imperial army, the Undead hordes, the Skaven of Clan Mordkin, and Sylvanian troops fought each other in a chaotic four-way melee. At the end, the Skaven and Undead proceeded to annihilate each other, resulting in an Imperial victory. The small Sylvanian contingent was mostly wiped out.[1a]
