Kamandora’s Blades - Warband Review

Image
Kamandora’s Blades worship Khorne, but they are not front line warriors. These scavengers stalk the bloodsoaked battlefields left behind by the Blades of Khorne, preying on stragglers and survivors. They hunt not for glory, but for skulls, bleeding out their victims with slow, deliberate malice before claiming their grisly prize. Kamandora, the Mother of Hate [1], leads this brutal warband with her loyal hound Kannat [2]. Alongside her are the grim and dependable Throkk [3], and the ruthless scavengers Ghalista [4] and Antro Krast [5]. Together, they pick their way through the aftermath of battle, hunting down those who slipped through the net of Khorne’s fury. Every skull they claim is another offering in service to their dark purpose. But they do not keep these trophies. Each skull is meant for a singular destination: the towering pyramid of bone where Korghos Khul ascended to daemonhood. The Blades' purpose is grim, but resolute. After all, even in the shadow of madness, it help...

Daggok's Stab-Ladz - Warband Review

Image
  Introduction Daggok Finksteala is on a murderous mission to decapitate the realms' brightest fighters. With each head Daggok takes, his kunnin' increases - or so he believes - and he means to gather enough stats to make him a killboss. Jagz da Bleeda and Hurrk da Howla are willing to hedge bets on the boss, using their own kunnin' and brutal tactics. Grakk da Hook plays the part of berserker, but his real job is to snag and drag down shields so his mates can lay into foes. Fighter Characteristics Leading the Stab Ladz is Daggok Finksteala.  His base stats are strong: Move 3, 1 Block for defence, 4 Wounds, and a 2 Glory bounty. He comes swinging with two melee profiles: one a Range 1 attack hitting on 2 Hammers for 2 Damage, and the other a slightly safer Range 2 attack also on 2 Hammers but for 1 Damage. However, it’s when Daggok Inspires that things really get nasty. He gains +1 Move and jumps to an impressive 2 Block defence, making him significantly harder to take down...

Agent's Clash - June 25 - Nemesis Tournament

Image
As the end of June rolled around, the Agents of Sigmar hosted their latest tournament here in the south of England. The 28th of June turned out to be a hot and muggy British summer’s day. On top of that, I had badly hurt my back, meaning I could only sit for a few minutes at a time. The day was shaping up to be both physically and mentally demanding. For the tournament, I was running Cyreni's Razors with a Strike build, pairing Blazing Assault and Countdown to Cataclysm . The aim was to use the Razors' accuracy to focus down one enemy fighter at a time, while relying on their speed and range 2 weapons to stay out of harm’s way. In each game, I planned to start by inspiring Cephanyr in the first round to benefit from extra Movement, a 4-sword attack, and a 2-Dodge defence. Blazing Assault and Countdown to Cataclysm 2.0 Game 1 My first game of the day saw me draw against Seamus McMahon, who was playing Skritch's Swarm paired with Realmstone Raiders and Blazing Assault. My Sk...

Realmstone Raiders - Deck Review

Image
NEW VERSION Overview Realmstone Raiders is a Rivals deck for Warhammer Underworlds that introduces the "Raid" mechanic, offering a unique playstyle centered around deck manipulation and strategic resource management. Core Mechanics: The Raid System At the heart of Realmstone Raiders lies the Raid mechanic. After the first successful melee attack in an action step, you may "raid" a number of times equal to the bounty value of the target. Each raid involves revealing the top card of your power deck: if it's an Emberstone card, you can either play it immediately (if it's a ploy) or equip it (if it's an upgrade), provided you have the necessary glory. If it's not an Emberstone card, you place it at the bottom of your deck. This mechanic rewards aggressive play and offers a form of deck thinning, allowing players to cycle through their decks more efficiently. Objectives – Early Scoring Opportunities The objectives in this deck are focused on reward...
