The Hour of Ruin is nigh, as the multitudinous, endless hordes of the Skaven spill forth into the Mortal Realms. Their warp-magic is so vicious, their arcane weaponry so potent, that Sigmar has dispatched his mightiest champions to hold back the tide – the Stormcast Eternals. At their fore march the Doomslayers, warriors who have weathered death so many times that they now resemble living weapons more than the mortals they protect.
If you want to dive straight into the new edition of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, this edition launch set is for you. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Skavenblight contains two mighty armies, pitting the golden might of the Stormcast Eternals against the chittering menace of the Skaven – abominable and cunning ratmen who seek to spread their corrupting influence and lay waste to the Mortal Realms.
The set also contains an exclusive Skavenblight box version of the Warhammer Age of Sigmar Core Rulebook, which contains a wealth of information about the game's fantastic setting and the complete rules for playing exciting games with your Warhammer miniatures. You'll also find the Spearhead: Fire and Jade hardback book, which contains all the additional rules you need to play the brand new Spearhead game mode in Warhammer Age of Sigmar, as well as a gaming board on which to play your Spearhead battles.
This box contains:
1x 272-page Hardcover Warhammer Age of Sigmar Core Rulebook: Explore the background of Warhammer Age of Sigmar and learn how to master magnificent armies of glorious warriors, wild demons, and more on the battlefield. This book contains all the core rules of the game, three different play styles for players of all kinds, various ways of playing siege battles and tunnel fights, and much more.
1x 144-page Hardcover book Spearhead: Fire and Jade: Play fast, tactical battles with small forces that are always different using the new Spearhead game mode. The book contains all the rules you need to play Spearhead, including how to get started, Spearhead Battle Collection, and Spearhead Army Rules for a wide range of factions and miniatures – including rules for playing with the Stormcast Eternals and Skaven miniatures in this box – as well as a copy of the basic rules for quick reference.
1x Double-sided game board measuring 30 by 22.4 inches: A thick cardboard game board that folds for easy transport. It depicts the ravaged landscape of Aqshy, the Realm of Fire, on one side, and the verdant lands of Ghyrans, the Realm of Life, on the other. Each side shows 5 objective markers and is perfect as a battlefield for your Spearhead games.
74x push-fit miniatures: The heart of the Skavenblight set are two armies of brand new miniatures, each carefully designed to be assembled without glue. Each force includes a flexible selection of powerful warriors with devastating weapons and can easily form the core of a larger collection with additional reinforcements. These models include:
24x Stormcast Eternals
Sigmar's chosen champions, torn from their mortal bodies at the moment of death and reforged to fight again. Each Stormcast Eternal is an almost immortal warrior capable of fighting and overcoming hordes of fierce opponents.
- 1x Lord Vigilant on Shadow Gryph – As commanders of the Doomslayers, these warriors wield axes that turn enemies to ash, while their Shadow Gryph mounts mark enemies for death with an ominous and cursed crow.
- 1x Lord Terminos with 1x Memorian – With their blessed Terminos weapons, Lord Terminuses have the duty of laying their Stormcast Eternal comrades to rest and freeing their troubled souls, so they may never be reforged again.
- 1x Lord Veritant with 1x Gryph-Crow – Few Stormcast Eternals are as feared as the Lords Veritant. Chosen from those whose hatred of Chaos overshadows all else, they hunt corruption wherever it appears, using their burning swords and lanterns to eradicate the taint of corruption.
- 1x Knight Questor – Sigmar has chosen each Knight Questor for a mission of utmost importance. These travelling warriors strive to fulfill their mysterious mission at all costs – and they allow no one to stand against the will of the God-King.
- 3x Reclusians with 2x Memorians – Reclusians only enter battle on the darkest days, for these immortal warriors are on the verge of losing their humanity entirely, and their lightning-scarred souls are particularly resistant to the corrupting power of Chaos.
- 3x Prosecutors – Prosecutors plunge from the sky on burning wings like vengeful meteors. The dangers encountered by these angelic warriors are so great that they have now been assigned to the Doomslayers to serve as merciless instruments of Sigmar's judgment.
- 10x Liberators – Liberators have the duty to strike down the warlords of destruction and seal Sigmar's claim to the realms. In their thunderstrike armour, they can withstand the blows of the most treacherous hordes and the magic of corrupted battlefields alike.
50x Skaven
For centuries, the cunning rat-men known as Skaven have scurried hidden from all eyes, rising only to overcome their enemies with abominable mutants, magical machines, and overwhelming numbers. Now they emerge from explosive bubbles of corruption across the realms, for their plans are finally bearing fruit.
- 1x Clawlord on Nagbeast – Clawlords are the most proven war leaders of the Skaven. They wear heavy armour, are marked with ominous runes, and drive their hordes forward to conquer, roaring threats from the backs of their terrifying Nagbeasts.
- 1x Grey Seer – Grey Seers are the most treacherous of all Skaven and magic-wielding agents of the Masterclan, manipulating society from the shadows. Recognisable by their horns and ash-coloured fur, they possess a terrible mastery of dark magic.
- 1x Warlock Engineer – The Warlocks of the inventive Clan Skryre power the industry of all Skavenblight. Unfortunately, however, they are completely insane and obsessed with devising ever more inventive weapons of death.
- 1x Rattling Warpfire Gun – Rattling Warpfire Guns are designed to decimate massed infantry and consist of a complex array of rotating cannons that spew a stream of warpstone-infused projectiles. Anyone caught in their path must take cover or be turned into bloody mist.
- 3x Rat Ogors – These rabid mutants were created by combining Skaven flesh with the muscle mass of Ogors through abominable surgery, cryptomancy, and toxic serums. Plagued by constant pain and gnawing hunger, Rat Ogors tear their opponents to pieces in blind fury.
- 3x Warpstone Jezzails – Skilled Skaven snipers operate Warpstone Jezzails, bringing death from a distance. These shooters use high-pressure warpstone gas to fire deadly shards across the battlefield and strike down the most impressive targets they can find.
- 40x Clanrats – Clanrats are the dregs of Skaven society and are considered completely expendable by their masters. Driven by hunger, fear, and ambition, Clanrats continue to fight, no matter how many are crushed, stabbed, or cut down, carrying any rusty weapon they can pick up.
4x push-fit plastic terrain pieces: This terrain set depicts ruined Sigmarite architecture, desecrated with twisted signs and the aesthetics of the Skaven. It is also ideal for playing Spearhead games with the "Spearhead: Fire and Jade" book.
All miniatures include the associated bases. These push-fit miniatures can be assembled without glue and are unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.
36x Spearhead Cards: These cards contain twists and tactical objectives that you can shuffle and draw in your Spearhead games.
17x General's Handbook Cards: This deck provides quick reference for matched play games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, including the 2024-25 season rule cards, Tactical Objective cards, Battleplan cards, and a scoring card.
1x 6-inch plastic measuring stick and 1x 3-inch plastic measuring stick: With modelled skull and rat symbols to indicate inch distances, you can use these measuring sticks individually or connect them to create a 9-inch measuring stick for your games.
