Warhammer Age of Sigmar Soul Wars

The Realmgate Wars were fought over the magical portals that bound the Mortal Realms together, but another conflict has been brewing in the shadows for thousands of years. This is a battle not for resources, nor for pure conquest, but for the immortal souls of the living and dead; a cosmic rivalry between gods who have carried their hatred through the ages. The spread of the light of civilisation, spearheaded by the God-King Sigmar, faces a dire threat posed by the Lord of Undeath, Nagash. Sigmar’s Sacrosanct Chambers, created to fight daemons and wraiths, face the malevolent spirits known as Nighthaunts in a battle for the free city of Glymmsforge…

Containing 52 push-fit Stormcast Eternals and Nighthaunt miniatures, along with a 320-page hardback Core Book and an exclusive 32-page Battle of Glymmsforge booklet, Soul Wars is the perfect boxed set for those who want to dive into this exciting new chapter in the Age of Sigmar right away. Included:

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Soul Wars contains 52 miniatures – 33 Nighthaunt, and 19 Stormcast Eternals – providing 2 players with an army each with which to do spectacular battle.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Malign Sorcery

The cataclysmic necroquake of Shyish has flooded the Mortal Realms with the powers of the aether. Incantations summon forth new conjurations of unprecedented power and frightful sentience, but beware – such endless spells can be treacherous, as likely to turn upon their caster as they are to devastate the enemy. From unleashing disembodied gnashing jaws to devour your foes, to raising prismatic barricades to protect your flanks, doing battle in the time of the Arcanum Optimar is unlike anything that has come before.

The Malign Sorcery boxed set is an expansion for Warhammer Age of Sigmar containing new rules and spells for magic, along with 17 imposing miniatures used to represent Endless Spells, powerful pieces of sorcery that can be unleashed by any wizard. These rules and miniatures can be used alongside the core rules to introduce wildly different and incredibly powerful spells brought about by the Arcanum Optimar – an age of rampant magic.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar Core Book

 

The Age of Sigmar began with the thunderous arrival of the Stormcast Eternals, borne upon the heavenly storm of the God-King Sigmar. Great heroes, snatched up at the moment of death and magically reforged, the sought vengeance on the followers of darkness, and the re-taking of the realms from Chaos. Yet in Shyish, the Realm of Death, the dark sorcery of Nagash, Supreme Lord of the Undead aims to transform the Mortal Realms into an ordered empire of mindless thralls. This is a new epoch, a time of mighty battles and unending war. This is the Age of Sigmar!

– The Age of Sigmar, in which vengeance against the Chaos Gods was meted out with celestial fury in the Realmgate Wars, with detailed background on Nagash’s dire plan to take back every mortal soul – which he sees as his by right.

General’s Handbook 2018 Warlord Edition

Presented in a self-contained box, this edition of the General’s Handbook comes with a host of extra content:

– 24 large-format Battleplan cards, featuring 2 Open Play, 4 Narrative Play and 18 Matched Play Battleplans;
– 48 Open Play cards and 32 Narrative Play cards with which to set up games;
– A double-sided token sheet featuring objective markers, summoning rulers, Command Point markers and terrain rule markers;
– 2 Command/Victory Point trackers, 1 each for for you and your opponent.

An essential toolbox of rules that you and your gaming group can use in any way you like, the General’s Handbook 2018 expands upon the rules of Warhammer Age of Sigmar – and those found in the previous iterations of the General’s Handbook – in a 136-page softback book filled with flexible rules which can be combined in virtually endless ways.

The Rules

Each of these gives you, the player, massive flexibility and choice in the way games are played – they’re designed to make you and your friends masters of your own gaming tables. The different rules have massive scope for overlap; for example if you want to use the multiplayer rules for a tournament, or Matched Play rules for a narrative campaign, you’re totally free to do so.

Open Play

This is the best introduction to Warhammer Age of Sigmar and the wider world of wargaming in general. Open Play allows you to play unrestricted, even team-based and multiplayer games – all you need is your miniatures, their Warscrolls, the Warhammer Age of Sigmar rules, some dice and a tape measure. The General’s Handbook features a Battleplan Generator – 5 tables determining how the armies are set up what they must do to win and the obstacles in their way featuring maps, objectives, twists, ruses and sudden death conditions which slot together to create exciting Battleplans – no 2 games ever need be the same. Rules are also included for aerial battles: in Overhead Aerial Battles, you effectively have 2 battlefields, 1 on the ground and 1 in the sky, whereas in Stratospheric Aerial Battles only the sky is represented – perfect for player with large collections of flying models. An example Battleplan is provided for each, with objective and twist tables helping you generate your own;

Narrative Play

The stories from the Mortal Realms are an important part of Warhammer Age of Sigmar – your collection of miniatures is made even more special by the rich history and thrilling tales told about them in various publications, making the hobby of collecting them an even more exciting venture. Narrative Play gives you a way to recreate the epic battles that have taken place in the Mortal Realms.

This section of the book contains 43 Special Rules for Narrative Play games – these are all evocative of situations and surprises that a leader might find himself dealing with in times of war, and can be applied to either or both players – these are great for adding balance, should it be needed. A section is dedicated to Historical Battles – this guides the player through setting up and playing a battle according to legends and tales from Games Workshop publications, with 2 example stories and annotated gaming table setups showing you how these wars were fought.

As well as these, you’ll find Gathering of Might – this is a set of simple modifications to the Warhammer Age of Sigmar core rules which streamline them, allowing for staggeringly huge battles featuring hundreds of models on either side. 2 Battleplans are included, with Legendary Traits, Gifts of the Gods, Artefacts, and Spells for each of the four Grand Alliances.

Matched Play

Some hobbyists prefer to test their mettle in an equally-matched battle of strategy and wits, in which no advantage is conferred simply by selecting the biggest and baddest miniature in your figure case. Matched Play is the perfect solution – this provides points values for the units available in the Warhammer Age of Sigmar range, allowing you and your opponent to size each other up, decide on a points limit, deploy your armies and go to war on an equal footing.

This section contains the rules needed to run Matched Play games – guidance on army size, points limits, battlefield roles, allied units and warscroll battalions, with clarified rules on using Triumphs and Command Points. 18 Battleplans are included, along with points values and unit sizes for every unit that can be used in a Warhammer Age of Sigmar Pitched Battle. Also included are Allies tables, listing the eligible Allies for each faction.

The profiles printed in this book supercede any printed previously.

Conquest Unbound

This section is dedicated to bringing your gaming table to life, offering optional enhancements based on the layout of scenery, allowing you to augment the battlefield with arcane constructs and ancient edifices.

Updated summoning abilities for Blades of Khorne, Disciples of Tzeentch, Everchosen, Seraphon, Sylvaneth, and Grand Alliance Chaos allow you to raise unquiet spirits and draw daemonic entities into battle.

Updated Allegiance Abilities allow your armies to act and fight in a way that closely fits the stories you’ve read in Battletomes and other publications – these are included for Darkling Covens, Dispossessed, Free Peoples, Fyreslayers, Seraphon, Wanderers, Brayherd, Slaanesh, Slaves to Darkness, Skaven Pestilens, Skaven Skryre, Flesh-eater Courts, and Ironjawz, with new Warscroll Battalions for the following factions: Fyreslayers, Seraphon, and Ironjawz.

Scenery Warscrolls are included for the following Citadel miniatures: Baleful Realmgate, Azyrite Ruins, Arcane Ruins, Barbed Venomgorse, Citadel Wood, Dragonfate Dais, Magewrath Throne, Numinous Occulum, Ophidian Archway, Shardwrack Spines, Sigmarite Mausoleum, Walls and Fences, and Warscryer Citadel.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar Shattered Dominion Objectives

Used to mark the objectives fought over in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, these 7 plastic Objective Markers are designed to add an extra element of narrative to your games – each is evocative of the constant state of conflict found in the Mortal Realms. They’re every bit as detailed as the models used to actually fight the battles themselves:

– Hallowed Tomb: an ancient burial place for a fallen warrior, whose likeness is sculpted on the lid – this lid is removable, and the fighter’s remains can be seen within;
– Trove of Arcane Glory: a collection of magical loot – books, scrolls and a sextant – surrounding an open chest, in which more books, scrolls and potion bottles are found;
– Soul Stone: a floating stone, the surface of which is adorned with grinning skulls attempting to break through, which is tethered to the ground by 3 chains;
– The Realm’s Ransom: a chest filled with rather more mundane treasures – coins (some of which have spilled out onto the ground), goblets, jewels and a lantern. The lid of the chest can be modelled open or closed;
– Ensorcelled Armoury: an impressive pile of shields, swords, hammers and axes;
– Iconoclast Axe: a large fallen statue’s head, with a double-headed axe, which can either be modelled embedded in the head or left as a separate piece;
– Realmvault Key: a mysterious device featuring an orrery with Sigmarite comets orbiting a sun, used for purposes unknown, attached to a winch pulling it from the ground.

These 7 markers come as 26 components.

Easy to Build Glaivewraith Stalkers: $15

Easy to Build Glaivewraith Stalkers

A Glaivewraith Stalker is an unstoppable force. Its long blade always points at the beating heart of its intended victim, just as the needle of an arcane compass indicates the highest concentration of magic. Though it drifts slowly towards its quarry, it is inevitable that the creature’s glaive will one day pierce the chest of its prey. Those who have realised a Glaivewraith is upon their scent have evaded them for years, even decades until their guard slips – and then the gheist’s leering and bestial visage is the last thing such victims see.

Designed to be as easy as possible to assemble for new hobbyists while being detailed enough for the hardiest veteran to appreciate, this kit assembles 4 Easy To Build Nighthaunt Glaivewraith Stalkers. Push-fit, with no glue required, this kit is incredibly straightforward to put together and comes on a pre-coloured turquoise plastic sprue.

The Glaivewraith Stalkers are a set of 4 sinister, drifting gheists, each little more than a tattered shroud, a pair of arms and a leering animal skull. The vertebrae of their undead spines poke through their cowls, giving them at least some corporeal shape – however, from the correct angles you can see into the shroud, and clearly observe the negative space where the rest of their bodies should be. Each carries a 2-handed hunter’s glaive, the haft and blade worn through countless years of use, and 1 Glaivewraith can be assembled as a deathbeat drummer holding a drum under his left arm, beating it with the mallet held in his right.

This kit comes as 17 components, and is supplied with 4 32mm sculpted round bases – these depict a graveyard scene, with the Glaivewraiths attached via a mist of ethereal vapour.

Easy to Build Castigators with Gryph-hound: $15

Easy to Build Castigators with Gryph-hound

Castigators are powerful ranged support troops, commonly employed by the Lord-Arcananums of the Sacrosanct Chambers against those ethereal enemies that can kill with but a touch. The thunderhead greatbows they carry are miracles of Azyrite science and ingenuity, launching projectiles more akin to maces than mere bolts – stout shafts attached to braced heads filled with the storm-breath of Stardrakes. Not only capable of smashing barricades with their heft, these mighty missiles can discorporate the ethereal form of a diabolic creature in an instant.

Designed to be as easy as possible to assemble for new hobbyists while being detailed enough for the hardiest veteran to appreciate, this kit assembles 3 Easy To Build Stormcast Eternals Castigators and a Gryph-hound. Push-fit, with no glue required, this kit is incredibly straightforward to put together and comes on a pre-coloured gold plastic sprue.

Heavily armoured, as with most Stormcast Eternals, the Castigators are posed holding their immense thunderhead greatbows with both hands, as their weight necessitates. One model is male, and the other female – both stand upon ruins, the male atop a fallen pillar and the female a looted grave, with remains scattered around. Each is cloaked, with a splendid tabard billowing out in front. The Castigator-Prime is presented in a more relaxed pose – his thunderhead greatbow is hefted back over his left shoulder, and he holds his plumed helmet in his right hand, making his scowling, bearded face visible. Their accompanying Gryph-hound stands proudly atop a ruined piece of Sigmarite architecture, with his cruel beak and talons enhanced by spiked armour.

This plastic kit comes as 19 components, and is supplied with 4 40mm sculpted round bases, each featuring holes for corresponding pegs on the feet of each model. Includes a Stormcast Eternals transfer sheet.

Easy to Build Myrmourn Banshees: $15

Easy to Build Myrmourn Banshees

The Myrmourn banshees have a diabolical hunger, for they feast solely upon magic. No enemy spell is safe from the ravenous spirits, and they haunt the Mortal Realms in search of arcane energies to consume. Myrmourn Banshees are drawn to magic as carrion are drawn to the dead, and such is their bitterness toward life that any mortal creature in their way is likely to receive a swift jab from their cursed chill daggers.

Designed to be as easy as possible to assemble for new hobbyists while being detailed enough for the hardiest veteran to appreciate, this kit assembles 4 Easy To Build Nighthaunt Myrmourn Banshees. Push-fit, with no glue required, this kit is incredibly straightforward to put together and comes on a pre-coloured turquoise plastic sprue.

Sinister and shrieking, the Myrmourn banshees are a set of 4 Nighthaunt miniatures with a sense of despair about them – little more than empty bodices surrounded by ethereal vapour, shrouds covering skulls trapped in a screaming rictus, they drift and swoop weightlessly clutching their chill daggers. Each is hollow – this can be clearly seen, with the inside of each miniature visible.

This kit comes as 16 components, and is supplied with 4 32mm sculpted round bases – these depict a sepulchral scene, with bones, broken statues and roses littering the graveyard the Banshees drift above.
