Ubersreik weathers a storm as uncounted thousands of Greenskins roam freely across the Vorbergland largely uncontested as Emperor Dieter IV hides with most of his State Armies in Altdorf. The continued sieges leave Ubersreik's population at a little over 3,000 souls.
Duc Gaston of Parravon attacks in the spring, besieging Ubersreik. Before the State Armies of Reikland can respond, most of the province of Ubersreik is burning. After six months of skirmishes, Parravon withdraws through the Grey Lady Pass.
Skaven allied with Undead invade the Grey Lady Pass. They are eventually driven back by Bretonnians. The lack of aid from Ubersreik increases tensions with Parravon.
Graf Sigismund of House Jungfreud inherits the Duchy of Ubersreik after his father dies. He immediately moves his court from his estates in the mountain duchy of Black Rock and takes up residence in Black Rock Castle in the town of Ubersreik. He soon establishes himself as one of the finest political and military minds of his generation, though he is known for his absolute ruthlessness and dedication to his family over all others.
Emperor Karl-Franz I passes a surprise edict through the Reikland Diet at midnight and uses it to seize Ubersreik, forcing Graf Sigismund to retreat to the Duchy of Black Rock. The town, and its surrounding province, are left without a formal ruler, although an Imperial herald representing Karl-Franz fulfills almost all of that role. What this means for the future of Ubersreik, and the Empire, is uncertain.
