Games Workshop - Warhammer Underworlds: Gnarlwood - Rivals Of Nethermaze

Product Information

I used my part of the Power phase to upgrade one of my surviving fighters with Eshin Throwing Stars, which allowed me to work towards completing my Objective of damaging Lizzie’s fighters with Krowch’t and/or Skulk.

Nethermaze, like its predecessor Harrowdeep and other Core Sets before it, is both a standalone boxed game for newcomers,and a chunky expansion kit that adds more minis, cards, and boards for existing collectors.In the image below, the hex-shaped counters on the left are either gloom hex tokens, double-sided scatter tokens, or double-sided feature tokens. The silver and gold tokens in the top centre are glory point tokens. The square tokens on the right are Move/Charge tokens and Guard/Stagger tokens. The red counters and counters with gemstones on them are wound/generic counters. The little tokens with the Underworlds logo on them are activation tokens, and the final pile in the bottom-right corner are Raise tokens. The Stormcast Eternals’ Path to Glory campaign continues in Battle Report as they take on the Ogor Mawtribes . This’ll be the first time that the new Battletome: Ogor Mawtribes is used in anger, and the ogors are really hungry for attention this week – as they have a whole Loremasters show dedicated just to them.

Nethermaze also introduces the new Map keyword – though as you might expect from an eldritch labyrinth, even the guidebooks are a gamble. Detailed Map Fragment, for example, allows you to find a shortcut to victory by gaining spent glory points – but beware! Your opponents are watching your every move, and can dip into their armoury in return. Nethermaze comes with a whole host of goodies to really pimp up your gaming experience. We’ll have a look at the gaming boards, the tokens, the cards and the dice that come in the box in this section. Game Boards Shroud Queen Slythael takes this power one step further – being in a cover hex bathes her in shadow, allowing her to teleport to edge hexes and other secluded spots. A few more points of damage were allocated across the board, but beyond each warband losing their leader, there were no further significant changes to the board.That said, as seasoned modellers ourselves, we suspect newcomers mighthave a stressfultime putting these together. While it’s nothing short of wizardry to produce modelsthis acrobatic-lookingthat can be assembled without glue, that doesn’t mean they’re necessarily easy to build, or that you can’t very easily bend or break a few spindly bits. There’s only one book with the new Nethermaze set, but it’s a pretty important one.

Way of the Lashing Tail– Skaven never fight alone if they can help it; this two-glory objective card scores when you have three fighters adjacent to the same enemy fighter. The siren song of Ulgu’s watery depths calls once again, as this season of Warhammer Underworlds continues in Nethermaze. Adding new warbands, cards, and board mechanics to the existing Championship format, Nethermaze expands the game experience like never before and continues the story that began in Harrowdeep.

By the time I’d had my final activation and both of us had passed in the Power phase (the part of the turn where each player plays their cards), only one glory point had been scored – and that was by the Skaven. Lizzie and I both discarded the majority of our hands – both of us were concerned we weren’t going to be able to use the Upgrades we had and complete the Objectives looking at how the battle was going – and drew new cards. Round 2 It seems like it was only a few weeks ago I was reviewing Harrowdeep, the last Underworlds set that also heralded a new season of the game. Now, we enter Season 6 of Underworlds with another collection of new miniatures, new cards, and new rules. The very first thing players need to do before they can begin playing Nethermaze is set up the battlefield. The battlefield is made up of the two double-sided boards that come with the box. Each side is covered with hexes which divide up the battlefield. Some of these hexes all have different rules applied to them. The Warhammer Underworlds: Nethermaze box comes with a pair of game boards printed to look like the swirling, spooky underwater depths that reside deep beneath Harrowdeep. The miniatures in the box are really excellent. I’m a big fan of a sculpted or scenic base, and the Skaven figures have absolutely crushed this. That the figures are push-fit also means that they’re blissfully easy to put together, so much so that any idiot could assemble them with absolutely no trouble whatsoever.Chum the Waters– A two-glory Objective that scores in an End Phase if your opponent has one or more wounded Fighters on a feature token

We’ll have a closer look at everything in just a moment. Warhammer Underworlds: Nethermaze Review – Literature The leader of this 4 model warband is Shroud Queen Slythael. She wears a faceless mask and seems to float on her cloak while it is turning to smoke, an impressive feat of miniatures design. Be careful with her staff though, this is one of the thinnest pieces of plastic I’ve ever seen. The other Shroudblades are armed with a mixture of blades and a crossbow pistol, which should make for plenty of gameplay options. The various warbands stumbling through Harrowdeep have arrived at this new zone, so called the Nethermaze, and it is within the confines of this staggering and maddening labyrinth that Season 6 of Warhammer Underworlds takes place.I can’t believe I’m saying this, but hopefully we’ll see some more horrible little rat-men like this in the future! Warhammer Underworlds: Nethermaze Review – Playtesting Nethermaze’s new Grand Alliance cards include three gambits, three upgrades, and three objectives for each of the four Alliances – here are a few of our early favourites:
