About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to unleash the Blood God's wrath with Magore's Fiends, an electrifying expansion for Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire! This crew brings 3 easy-to-assemble red plastic Blood Warrior miniatures, ready to crush skulls and honor Khorne. Alongside them is Riptooth, a demonic Flesh Hound of Chaos that means business. Each warrior is a war machine, heavily armed and armored, coming straight from Khorne's Pantheon to sow chaos in the Mirrored City. But that's not all! This expansion supercharges your game with 60 brand-new cards. Of these, 30 are universal, meaning any warband can use them to boost their strategies and build their dream deck. Want to dominate the battlefield with area control, manage your hand like a master, or roll dice to secure victory? Magore's Fiends add an extra layer of tactics and aggression, perfect for those who enjoy visceral combat and quick strategic decisions. The game's medium weight (3/5) indicates it has depth without being overly complicated, ideal for those who have already grasped the basic rules and want more options. If you're a Warhammer fan who enjoys tactical combat games with miniatures and deck-building, this expansion is a must-have to add more excitement to your matches.
