Come see a preview of the newest Shadespire cards for the Fastriders and Magore’s Fiends that are coming soon from the latest Khorne and Stormcast Expansions.
We had already seen the new expansion advert from Aprils White Dwarf, but there was bound to be more right?
Take a peek at these new cards that are coming soon to games of Shadespire near you!
Courtesy of TGA’s Shadspire Thread:
Looks like Magore will be pretty easy to inspire as he hits 50% of the time with no support! Hopefully, the rest of the warband has the same condition!
Crank up the killy with Blood Frenzy making hits on a 3+ essentially with no support, and you’ll be drawing cards for killing most mid-level characters with To the Victor! Shake about seems good because you get to dictate direction now, so setting up assist traps with these pack hunters will be even easier!
On the Stormcast side of things, you’ll have to keep these guys moving to inspire them and from the looks of advancing strike, there will be cards in their deck to help them seize the day on the other side of the boards.
Don’t dismiss the ranged ability on Farstrider either, teamed up with a squad mate with the overcharged version they can wreak havoc from afar as well. Lone Warrior is similar to whispers which round out hammer attacks to a 3+, and quick thinker looks fun to use in just about any reactionary deck out there.
Big news, however, may be the fact that their faction symbols do not match the previous Khorne and Stormcast expansions, so it looks like these factions will be self-contained as they make their way through their entrapment inside the glass.
So Stormcast Fastriders and Khorne Magore’s Fiends will be out April 14th and they’re going to cost $30 each. They’re both going to be getting new card sleeves (8) and dice packs ($10).
Check out the two teaser videos for these warbands from GW’s announcement of upcoming releases for all of their product lines at the GAMA Trade Show:
Meanwhile, in the City of Mirrors, two new Warhammer Underworlds warbands will be joining the fray:
Magore’s Fiends are a hard-hitting pack of Khorne-worshipping Blood Warriors, while the Farstriders combine the stalwart durability of their kin in Steelheart’s Champions with the elite training and ranged wargear of the Vanguard Chambers. Both of these warbands will be out soon, with a range of new cards, new mechanics and new tricks for every player to try.
But if you caught it, we got our first look at these two new warbands in the Shadespire rulebook back on day one:
Khorne and Stormcast Eternals are each getting a new warband for Shadespire providing even more model options. Anyone looking for their lost Khorne puppy?
- Stormcast Fastriders and Khorne Magore’s Fiends pre-order April 7th with an initial release date of April 14th.
These next four releases are making April look like it’s going to be a busy month for hobbyists everywhere whether you’re a Sigmar fan, 40k fan, or both. Make sure you’re checking back in with us for the latest updates leading up to all of these big release dates.
What do you think about the new Khorne and Stormcast warbands for Shadespire? Are you planning on picking either of these up?
