Come take a look inside the new Warcry starter set. We’ve got a close up look at what you’ll find inside the big starter box. Check it out!

Warcry’s beginner box is beastly, and, alliteration aside, there’s just a ton of stuff to dig into. With the new terrain, the sprues of harpies and raptors, and of course, the two new Warbands, Iron Golems and Untamed Beasts, there’s enough to satisfy even Archaon’s bloodlust as you explore the strange, warped landscape of the Eightpoints. Let’s dive right on in.

Here’s a closer look at the Iron Golems, whose are stone cold killers, if not just stone cold to the touch.

 

And then here are the Untamed Beasts, who look as fierce as the wild beasts that they emulate:

I love how much more organic this sprue looks than the other one. And challenging your warband are two different sets of Chaos beasts, each one more hungry than the last.

You also get the new ruined city terrain that promises to dot the landscape of the Eightpoints and the Vararspire…

And while the six different Chaos warbands might be the big exciting new hotness, Warcry does some with the existing factions, offering up rules, guidelines, and of course, points.

Here’s a breakdown of how to read a fighter card:

Fighter cards, meanwhile, let you track the rules for the warriors in your warband at a glance. For convenience, these use symbols known as runemarks instead of words – after a few games, you’ll find knowing what these mean becomes second nature. We’ll be looking at a few fighter cards throughout the week – this key shows what the different symbols mean.

Warcry is out for pre-order next weekend, and there are sure to be more previews over the coming week, so be sure and check back.

Get ready for Warcry!
