Looks like the last “unknown”  tile for the Age of Sigmar Battle Board showed up over weekend. Checkout this very clockwork looking tile!

The last tile:

via Games Workshop 8-23-2015

It looks to be part of a full Age of Sigmar themed Realm of Battle 6-plate set.

If you take out your Age of Sigmar softcover 96pg book and turn to the missions section, look closely at the board the mission objectives are drawn on:

We get this:

aos-tiles-100

 

Now ignore the text and dark outlined mission objectives and look at the tiles behind.  Then notice that pattern of what makes up the 6 tile set:

1 tile A: “3 circular areas & curved pathway” (upper left) ~Just spotted today!

1 tile B: “deep crack with bridge over it” (lower center) ~2nd from top image above

2 tiles C: “minor cracks/scars along the periphery” (lower left, upper right) ~Unpainted tile in the retailer photo above

2 tiles D: “exposed ruins running along the central third of the tile” (upper center, lower right) ~Look down below

Now take a look at the background pics used in the mission section and you will notice all of those various tiles sections appearing here and there.

aos-tile101 aos-tiles-102

Tile B with bridge visible

aos-tiles-103

Tile D with ruins visible

No idea on what this set will run, the but the existing Realm of Battle 6-tile sets go for roughly $350.

 

~Still no word on when this will ship, but now we get the full picture.
