Don’t miss the hunt with Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz as this new Warhammer Underworlds warband searches for the Troggoth king!
The Moonclan Grots are back, and this time, they’re on the hunt for something big. Enter Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz, a new warband for Warhammer Underworlds, made up of six crafty grots, a smaller Troggoth named Uglug, and some seriously sneaky tactics. Their mission? Track down Trugg, the Troggoth king, and survive long enough to brag about it. Here’s what we think of the new rules and models!
Who Are These Grots?
Borgit Wolf-Killa leads this ragtag crew, pretending to be a seasoned hunter. He’s roped in his pals Snagz and Hobblin’ Dregg, both equally unimpressive in stature and strength. The real muscle comes from Uglug, a Troggoth with dreams of grandeur, who’s hilariously oblivious to the fact that Rigg and Shamm (his supposed “handlers”) are using him as their personal wrecking ball.
This Warhammer Underworlds warband isn’t about brute force. They’re all about cunning, traps, and dirty tricks. They might not go toe-to-toe with a Stormcast or a Saurus, but with the right schemes, they’ll trip up their enemies and come out on top.
Warhammer Underworlds Warband Tricks and Tactics
Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz play dirty, and that’s where their unique abilities shine. Let’s talk strategy:
- Gittish Taktikz: After a successful attack by Borgit or Uglug, the target becomes “da mugginz,” meaning your minions get a boost with Grievous attacks. It’s a one-shot ability, but it makes for a great turning point in a battle.
- Da Bait: Lose a minion? No problem. When one goes down, your leader gets pushed right into the thick of things, ready to dish out some payback.
This warband thrives on using smaller fighters as cannon fodder while setting up for bigger moves. Toss in some clever positioning, and you’ll keep your opponents guessing.
Edge of the Knife: A Perfect Match
Every sneaky warband needs a deck that plays to their strengths, and Edge of the Knife does just that. This Rivals deck rewards risky moves and sacrifices, turning losses into gains. Cards like Sneak Into Position and Risky Position grant Glory for getting your little guys into dangerous spots, while Parting Shot lets a tempered fighter leave a final mark before they fall.
The Warhammer Underworlds warband Plot Card ties it all together, granting Tempered to fighters with low Wounds or those who’ve taken a hit. From there, the deck piles on interactions with tempered fighters, creating some seriously fun combos.
Could This New Warhammer Underworlds Warband Be Fun?
This new warband is all about causing chaos and frustration for your opponent. They might not look like much at first glance, but they thrive on teamwork and clever plays. Watching your enemy trip over your traps while Uglug smashes through their defenses? That’s the kind of underdog story everyone loves to see.
Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz and the Edge of the Knife deck will be up for pre-order soon. Whether you’re a fan of sneaky tactics, grots, or just want to add some laughs to your Warhammer Underworlds games, this is one warband that’s ready to shake things up. Keep an eye out—you won’t want to miss them!
