When opening the box we can see all of the Space Marine Scout and Ork Boys that we have seen in the past so there’s nothing really too new there. The terrain pieces themselves is made from the lower quality Chinese plastic that we have been seeing most of the Games Workshop terrain come in lately but it seems that the detail level is much higher than that of the early Age of Sigmar terrain releases.

After throwing the scout and Ork instructions to the side we took a look at the double sided tokens and game aids. They are all a great quality and printed on a thick cardboard.

We are very happy to see that a quick start guide has been included in this box set. It’s always nice to have things that make it easier to get started when you’re not familiar with a game system. It is also very nice that Games Workshop has included newly rendered templates in a clear see through red plastic.

Check out the video below to see everything we have to say about the Shadow War Armageddon box set.

Deadly skirmish combat in a war-torn hive world.

Armageddon is wracked with war. As hordes of ferocious Ork warriors surge across the planet, they are met in combat by the combined forces of the Imperium.

Across Hive Acheron, elite fighters creep through the twisting pipes and gantries of the hive to strike deep within enemy territory. They are assassins and saboteurs – the kill teams of Armageddon, battling over precious promethium in order to win the shadow war and decide the fate of the battle that has engulfed the planet.

A standalone boxed game, Shadow War: Armageddon pits kill teams against each other in skirmish combat, with a detailed set of rules that are easy to pick up, yet deep enough to delight even the most seasoned wargamer. Containing an assortment of Citadel miniatures Shadow War: Armageddon brings the thrill of close-up and personal warfare to your gaming table, from single skirmishes to hard-fought campaigns that could decide the fate of Armageddon.

Head over to Games Workshop to pick up the new stand along boxed game, Shadow War Armageddon today!
