About the game
Get ready for the fury of the wildest orcs! Hedkrakka's Madmob brings the chaotic energy of Gorkamorka to the Warhammer Underworlds battlefield. Led by the prophet Hedkrakka, who claims to hear the whispers of the god himself, this band of orcs ventured deep into Beastgrave in search of epic challenges. And they don't disappoint! This warband is a true all-rounder: tough enough to take a beating, with firepower to eliminate enemies, and numerous enough to dominate objectives on the board. They particularly excel at taking advantage of the Primacy mechanic, ensuring the upper hand when the game heats up. In addition to the orc warriors, the package is packed with 62 exclusive cards to power up your band or create new tactics, including objectives, upgrades, and ploys. And there's more: 10 universal objective cards, 10 universal upgrade cards, and 9 universal gambit cards, ready to be used by ANY warband in your games. If you're a fan of Warhammer and want to spice up your Underworlds matches with a versatile band full of personality, this one's for you. Oh, and you can even take these guys to the Age of Sigmar battlefield with a free downloadable warscroll!
