The Mad Mob Revealed
This well-rounded warband is on a mission to hunt the greatest beast of all – the living mountain itself, and they’re going to cause a lot of problems for anyone foolish enough to get in their way.
Mad Mob Characters
First up, the shaman, Savage Orruks love their shamans and this one appears to be the natural leader of the mad mob.
Next is the archer, who adds a bit of ranged capability to the savage orruks, versatility in a Warband certainly helps with strategic playstyles.
This melee character featuring claws might be the most savage of these guys, but will he be able to get up close and tear up some opponents?
Finally the Axe-wielding beserker. He might be the simplest looking, however, his Warband will probably have his back rounding out the force with tons of options.
Underworlds Starter Set
This new starter set contains the exact same Warhammer Underworlds game you’ve come to know and love, but it includes two pre-made decks, making it the best way to start playing the game.
This may not be the most competitive option out there, but it is a great option to help you and a buddy dip your toes in to see if you want to expand and try out more of the Underworlds game.
Of course, experienced players will also want to get their hands on the two new warbands, Storm of Celestus and Drepur’s Wraithcreepers, to pit against the underworld’s other denizens, such as Khagra’s Ravagers.
Besides giving you everything you need for a starter game of Underworlds, it actually features two exclusive warbands, which is nice to give to new players. It will be interesting to see if the warbands are good compared to standalone factions.
How do you feel about these new warbands? Do you have a buddy in mind to split the starter set with?
