Q: When Bushwakka is taken out of action, does the Trap remain on the battlefield? Does it still work as described on Bushwakka's fighter card? As of the writing of this article (mid July 2021), we’re heading towards the twilight months of the current Beastgrave/Direchasm season of the Championship format. What does this mean? It means that at the end of the season (heralded by the release of the starter set for the new season), all Beastgrave universal cards will rotate out of play, and will no longer be legal in the Championship format. As such, the universal cards we’re recommending below from the Rippa’s Snarlfangs expansion will only be useable until that rotation date (which was December for the release of Direchasm, but historically has been around late September). Note that all Beastgrave warbands, and indeed every warband that has been released since the very first Warhammer Underworlds boxed set, will always be legal (and that includes their faction-specific cards, unless banned or restricted in the future). Hrothgorn is armed with a trap launcher, a mobile bolt thrower that shoots traps connected to a chain, so he can pull his prey closer to him. Working towards his inspiring condition. The others support these actions, for example by making the trap launcher more efficient or moving enemies closer to Hrothgorn. Their insatiable hunger brings them to all corners of the mortal realms and there’s one thing that is as important as the next meal for the Ogor Mawtribes: a good fight! And in the Eightpoints there’s plenty of both. Especially that exotic flavour that characterizes the followers of the Chaos Gods.

Some warbands are really unique, for example Rippa’s Snarlfangs or Skaeth’s Wild Hunt, and there will be more from the future seasons of Warhammer Underworlds, but for now, some warbands are just plain and boring, adding really little new to Warcry.

Top Objectives

Summon Stalagsquig(Double, Mollog):set up Stalagsquig (once per battle) nearby but not engaged to any enemy. The first opponent to pass near Stalagsquig gets damaged. On the other side the Leadbelchers prefer to blast enemies to pieces using their massive cannons carried by hand to the front line. I’d always thought the movement of the Wild Riders ‘ steeds would be perfect to make them look like they’re flying through the air, so I decided to build my miniature around the idea of Santa’s sleigh. I looked at many of the chariots on the webstore before deciding that only the sledge from the Radagast the Brown kit would do. Radagast himself was going to be Santa, but on seeing Da Red Gobbo, the poor wizard was relegated to the bitz box. Replace] [ Icy Breath] – Ping damage is not something I generally feel you need for this playstyle, especially ping damage that is not guaranteed. Pass. Critical hits can also really harm Ogors so avoid being too isolated and surrounded. Toughness 4 is just average so most units will hit you on a 4+,take this in consideration.

Gryselle is an upgraded Slaughter Queen with more wounds and more damage on critical hit. In addition she has access to 3 abilities specific to this Bladeborn warband and 1 extra reactions. And she can still use Daughter’s generic abilities and reaction, plus the Leader ability. What this means is that they may not have access to all abilities available by their counterparts despite the same profile and higher points. While sometimes the cost is justified by having access to specific Bladeborn abilities, most of the time the difference is only 1 or 2 wounds more. A: Yes. Well-rewarded specifically demands that the fighter in question be given a third or subsequent upgrade. As the fighter is considered to have 2 upgrades, the next upgrade to be given to them would be a third. While this objective hand has been pretty slow, it has been very scoreable. Thanks to Gnoblar Scramble, we’re likely scoring this as well. So we’re looking at 3-5 glory in the end phase, not counting glory from kills or Primacy. Not a bad start considering the speed of the hand. This means that our objective hands in rounds 2 and 3 will likely be very gas, as we’ll be more likely to draw into surges, meaning that scoring [ Aggressive Strategy] is less awkward. As always, this section is written based on a sample hand draw, and highlights some theoretical lines of play to go with it, which doesn’t necessarily reflect the reality of playing the game. What to do when…

Unnatural Truce

Currently only the warbands of 6 seasons (out of 7) of Warhammer Underworlds have profiles available in Warcry, but we are sure more will come in time. With the exception of those contained in Dreadfane and in the Starter Set released in the Direchasm season, which do not have profiles but you can still use those miniatures with the normal Warcry profiles for those fighters. If you want more information about Warhammer Underworlds we have a guide for every single warband released. They have access to all Ogor abilities, including On the Mawpath (3″ Move), Bullcharge (damage after movement) and Might Makes Right for the leader (free move or action after taking down an enemy). Hrothgorn Mantrappers surely aim for the role that Mollog's Mob play so far. It is strongly focused around the main character and from the fluff that covers that role in a proper way. Even the way the designer explained how the inspiration worked, that as soon as Hrothgorn guzzles down an enemy fighter, he is strengthened and the others are relieved that he didn't eat them. Sound da Charge(Triple, Pokin Snark):increase up to 3″ the Move of friendly fighters starting nearby this fighter. While they all have their own Bladeborn runemark that allows them to have specific abilities, they also belong to a faction and they can be integrated with fighters from the same faction. They can also use all abilities from their faction in addition to their specific ones. Note that most Bladeborn warbands don’t reach 1000 points by themselves, but can easily be integrated in their main faction or with other Bladeborn from the same faction.
