This is the time of turmoil. This is the era of war. This is the Age of Sigmar!
 
Since the breaking of Sigmar's Tempest, the peoples of the Mortal Realms have fought tooth and nail for those islands of civilisation they have established. Every city is blackened by the fires of war, every populace harrowed by the ordeal of simple survival. But now, the Hour of Ruin has come, the fabric of reality splitting as numberless hordes of rat-like Skaven capsize decades of progress.
 
Yet, the hosts of Sigmar are still marching. They know full well that the cycle of endless war is inescapable, taking its toll on even the mighty Stormcast Eternals. But though the candle of hope gutters, it burns bright enough to inspire a thousand selfless acts.

  • Slaves To Darkness Darkoath Army Set

    From the blood-soaked wilds of the Mortal Realms, they come, the merciless reavers of the Darkoath. Counted among the dreaded Slaves to Darkness, these fearsome human tribes have sworn vows of carnage and butchery beneath the gaze of their malevolent gods, and they will fulfil them at any cost – for if they fail, their souls are forfeit. Descendants of those unfortunate humans left behind when Sigmar retreated behind the Gates of Azyr, the Darkoath entered into pacts with the deities of ruin to endure the unendurable. As merciless as they are proud, they launch raids from their Chaos-corrupted homelands, fulfilling oaths of slaughter and vengeance.

     
    The Chaos-tainted hordes of this army set make a powerful upgrade to your Slaves to Darkness army, and are a great way to reinforce your collection with new miniatures.
     
    Brutal Darkoath Fellriders gallop alongside masses of Darkoath Marauders, led from the front by a savage Darkoath Chieftain on Warsteed. A Darkoath Wilderfiend watches over the entire twisted tribe as both their guardian and persecutor. Once a mortal champion itself, the Wilderfiend has been warped and twisted into a hunched abomination that craves flesh and wields powers of primal sorcery.
     
    Also included is an exclusive print version of Battletome Supplement: Darkoath, filled with rules, lore, and stunning artwork, which will only be available in a physical format in this Army Set. Burning, pillaging, and brutalising the Mortal Realms with your collection is made even simpler by an exclusive set of warscroll cards and double-sided tokens – both only available in this boxed set.
     
    This set includes the following multipart plastic miniatures:
    – 1x Darkoath Wilderfiend
    – 1x Darkoath Chieftain on Warsteed
    – 5x Darkoath Fellriders
    – 20x Darkoath Marauders
     
    This set also includes the following items, which are exclusive to this box:
    – Battletome Supplement: Darkoath – 24-page softback book with rules, lore, and artwork on the Darkoath tribes
    – Warscroll Cards: Darkoath – a set of four handy cards to help you use the miniatures in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar
    – Darkoath Token Sheet – 20 exclusive double-sided tokens to keep track of your army’s progress on the tabletop
     
    All models are supplied with their appropriate bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
     
    Please note Battletome Supplement: Darkoath will also be available as a free download from the Warhammer Community website. All rules will be accessible in the Warhammer Age of Sigmar app, and can also be found in Dawnbringers Book VI: Hounds of Chaos.

    The miniatures in this set will be available separately at a later date.
