Spearhead is an exciting way for both new and experienced players to enjoy Warhammer Age of Sigmar. In this game mode, you'll fight small-scale battles that are fast, tactical, and different every time.

This pack contains the cards, terrain, and accessories for playing Spearhead games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. The gameboard is 30”x22.4” – the specified size for Spearhead games – and features pre-printed objective markers for your armies to fight over. The four pieces of terrain are ideal for adding extra dimensions to your games, creating opportunities for cover and ambush. Also included are themed twist cards that ensure games are close right until the final dice roll, and battle tactics cards, which dictate how to score victory points and offer powerful one-off effects.

– 1x Double-sided gameboard: This gameboard features five objectives printed on each side and is designed for use in your Spearhead games. It depicts the blasted landscape of Aqshy, the Realm of Fire, on one side and the green land of Ghyran, the Realm of Life, on the other.

– 4x Plastic push-fit pieces of terrain: This terrain set shows fractured Sigmarite architecture that has been desecrated with the icons and aesthetics of the twisted Skaven. It is also ideal for playing out the Spearhead games featured in the Spearhead: Fire and Jade book.

– 36x Spearhead cards: These cards contain twists and battle tactics ready for you to shuffle and draw during your Spearhead games.

– 1x 6" Plastic range ruler and 1x 3" plastic range ruler: Featuring sculpted skull and rat icons to designate inches, these range rulers can be used separately, or pushed together to make a single 9" range ruler for use in your games.

These push-fit miniatures can be assembled without glue and are supplied unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Colour paints.

Games Workshop have two broad methods for painting their models. Both are entirely viable options, though have significant differences in the paints required (detailed below). You can find all of the required paints in the 'recommended paint' section below, whether you simply want to get it out onto the tabletop ASAP (i.e. 'Battle Ready'), or want to take your time and make it a masterpiece (i.e. 'Parade Ready'):

1. Classic Method - uses acrylic paints to build layers of colour and depth. Usually topped off with a shade paint to really make the shadows pop. Probably the most beginner friendly method as mistakes are often easy to fix.

2. Contast Method - uses ink-like contrast painsts which sink into recesses, providing depth in highlights and shadows with a single layer of paint. It can take some practise to get this method to look great, but it's highly satisfying when it does work. Less forgiving when mistakes happen, though arguably the quicker method of the two options.
