Two Quick Reference sheets are included in the box set that tells all of the stats and skills, as well as the chart for combat drugs and even how players can level up their characters.

All game tokens and spires for terrain come on two punch cards. Just punch them out and set up.

The Reaver jetbikes and Hellions are the same as the kits we have seen in the past. It just looks like they took the exact same Sprues and packages them into this new miniature game box.

Check out the video below to see everything we have to say about the Gangs of Commorragh.

The skies of Commorragh are equally as perilous as its bone-paved streets. The air above the shrouded spires thrums and darkens with roving murder-packs of Hellions and Reavers, engaging each other in vicious territorial battles. Anti-grav skyboards and savagely fast jetbikes vy for supremacy – when a gang is broken, or completely destroyed, their opponents dance with sickening glee above the sanity-warping metropolis the Dark Eldar call their home.

Gangs of Commorragh is a tabletop game in which two players control murder-packs of Dark Eldar Reavers and Hellions against each other in bitter combat. It combines strategy, tactics and all-out violence to create a deep and tense gaming experience.

Inside the box, Gangs of Commorragh contains 6 Dark Eldar Reavers and 10 Dark Eldar Hellions, along with dice, a 24-page rulebook, 2 quick reference cards, counters and 6 easy to assemble pieces of card scenery, representing the towering spires of this dark city.

The rulebook contains rules for different types of gameplay, including basic skirmishes in the sky between smaller packs of Dark Eldar as well as massive pitched battles in which every miniature fights as part of 2 massive murder-packs.

As well as this, there is a detailed Campaign, in which murder-packs grow and advance, earning new members and upgrades with each victory. Use the included condition tables to add complexity and interesting events.

This box game would be a great thing to sit down with a friend and play a fast paced, small, skirmish style game. It would also be a great way to get a lot of Dark Eldar miniatures to expand on an existing army or start a new one! Head over to Games Workshop and pick up your own copy of Gangs of Commorragh today!
