Age of Sigmar 2.0 is bringing tons of artifacts to the table to represent the realms where they come from and give new effects to the game.

Warhammer Community let us in on some of the artifacts we’ll be seeing.

New Artifacts you say?

aos background

When you’re writing your army list, you have the option to pick a Realm for your army to be from. Perhaps your Freeguild hail from Hammerhal Aqsha, in Aqshy, or perhaps your Slaves to Darkness raid the distant outskirts of Ghur. As well as providing you with loads of opportunities for roleplaying (not to mention painting and converting), you’ll be able to replace one of your normal Artefact picks with a special artefact from your chosen realm.

That’s not all! There will be seven Realms with 6 magical weapons and 6 trinkets, armor, or other equipment to choose from! That’s roughly 80 different options to take for your army.

Revealed Artifacts

Aos Brooch

AoS is coming with command points to spend and ways to get them back! Plus it goes off on a 5+.

Aos Beastcallers bones

Beastcaller’s bones is a pretty hardcore disable if you position your model right.

aos artifacts

  • Wraithbow gives a free mortal wound. Could be more, but with rolling 6 dice, you’re bound to usually get 1 or 2.
  • Rockjaws is a more solid approach to mortal wounds than the Wraithbow but you lose the range that the bow gives.
  • The Sunderblade is High Risk/High reward. it’s a bit of a combination of the two artifacts above as you can roll for everything around your model and its D3 mortal wounds each time you hit!

Missed all the talk about what the factions are getting in the new edition? We’ve got it here for you.
