All the Latest GW Previews
Warhammer Underworlds: Direchasm
Previously we got a small tease of the next season of Underworlds, but now we have a full look at the first box set and an introduction to the season.
Direchasm offers new challenges for all your current warbands, as well as making for a great place to jump in if you’re not already playing. The new Primacy and Hunger mechanics allow you to build up bonuses, and the game rules have also been refined and streamlined even further.
With a new season of Underworlds a brand new start box is on the way as well. With this box set featuring Lumineth and Slaanesh forces.
New to Warhammer Underworlds are the Lumineth Realm-lords – Myari’s Purifiers have come to pacify the anguish of the tormented mountain. Featuring four strong fighters, each with their own strengths, they’re a warband that can do everything – they’ve got magic, ranged attacks, and two different styles of powerful melee.
For the first half of the box, we got a Warband of Lumineth Realmlords. Each carries a defining weapon for the Realmlords, and are all conveniently propped up on some rock formations… Perhaps for tactical advantage?
While the Purifiers want to calm Beastgrave, the Dread Pageant seeks to draw strength from its pain. The dark mirror to the Lumineth fighters, these mortal followers of Slaanesh also feature four fighters with very different play styles, making for an aggressive and flexible warband with a twist. Their deck includes loads of ways to manipulate enemy fighters, and your own warriors will Inspire when they inflict AND receive wounds! What could be more thematic?

Personally, I am much more excited for the Slaanesh Warband. Unlike the other half of the box, these models look way more unique, even when compared to their own faction. The Purifiers kind of look like re-hashes of other models in the army lineup, other than the leader, whereas for the Dread Pageant, each model looks pretty unique.
What else comes in the box? Well, everything you could need to play a game of Direchasm with a buddy. Including the full two forces, Dice, Cards, play board, rules, and markers to keep track of it all.
Want some blood-soaked tales of glory from the depths of the Direchasm? Look no further than this forthcoming anthology, including tales from some of Black Library’s finest.
Are you excited for the new season of Underworlds? Will, you split the box with a friend?
