via Games Workshop
Warhammer Quest: Cursed City $199
At the heart of Shyish, the ancient city of Ulfenkarn stands upon the precipice of doom. The cruel vampire lord Radukar the Wolf has transformed this once-proud city into nothing more than a feasting table for him and his coterie of malicious servants. Now, a group of heroes seek to lift the curse and free the city.
In Warhammer Quest: Cursed City, you and your friends take on the role of a group of disparate heroes seeking fame, treasure, and glory on the streets of Ulfenkarn. Only by working together and balancing your strengths and skills can you hope to survive. With each journey, you will learn more of the Cursed City’s closely guarded secrets and encounter more of the murderous undead that haunt it… Each trip into the Cursed City is a race against time, as the forces of Radukar the Wolf become empowered when night falls. At the end of every journey into Ulfenkarn, the players are retrieved by the airship Adamant, so that they may heal, gain experience, and make their plans for the future. Only experienced heroes with the best weapons can hope to overcome Radukar and free Ulfenkarn from its undead curse – do you have what it takes to save the Cursed City?
Warhammer Quest: Cursed City – Nightwars $50
The Curse of Night Unending shrouds Ulfenkarn’s streets in choking darkness. The survivors’ enclave of Haven stands alone as a light in the darkness. In the Ebon Citadel the Wolf’s throne stands empty, but three new vampiric pretenders have arisen to stake their claim to the city. Each brings their own brand of evil to bear, turning the districts under their control to hellish reflections of their personalities. Only the band of disparate heroes who cast down Radukar stand any chance of pushing back the darkness, and reclaiming Ulfenkarn for the living. Their task will not be an easy one, for with each vampire they cut down, the others will increase their territory and power. And around campfires and candles, rumours claim the Wolf still stalks the night…
The first expansion for Warhammer Quest: Cursed City has arrived. Use your collection of Soulblight Gravelords models to represent new vampire lords trying to fill the power vacuum left by your Heroes after the first quest. You’ll find three new journey types, new missions, even more challenging enemies, and new Elite Classes to empower your Heroes.
Inside the box you’ll find:
– 48-page Nightwars rulebook, packed with the continuing story of Ulfenkarn, rules for using new enemies, two Elite Classes for each of the four base classes, rules for the Haven settlement, three new journey types plus four Decapitation journeys, and more perilous Crisis tables

Amazon Blood Bowl Team: Kara Temple Harpies $50
Highly skilled and agile, Amazons are among the very best players of Nuffle’s sacred game. These warrior-athletes possess an exceptional blend of agility, tactical prowess, and violence that makes them thrilling to watch on the pitch, with an acrobatic style of play honed by years spent darting through dense rainforest and evading apex predators. With tactics moulded around the deadliest animals of their jungle home, these players unleash vicious hit-and-run moves that dazzle Blood Bowl fans and opponents alike.
On the pitch, Amazon teams are a force to behold – though relatively lightly armoured, their agility allows them to dance around sluggish teams, while raining down blows on the Old World’s complacent weaklings. With a fearsome reputation as both warriors and players, it’s no surprise that these explosively agile teams regularly crush competition at the very top of the sport.
The multipart plastic kit allows you to assemble the Kara Temple Harpies, an Amazon team for use in games of Blood Bowl. The team is made up of 6 Eagle Warrior Linewomen, 2 Piranha Warrior Blitzers, 2 Python Warrior Throwers, and 2 Jaguar Warrior Blockers. In addition, the box includes 2 double-sided Blood Bowl coins, 2 turn and re-roll markers, 4 balls, and a transfer sheet with 292 decals, all themed around Amazon teams.
Rules for using Amazon teams in your games of Blood Bowl can be found in Spike! Journal 15.
This kit comprises 102 plastic components, and is supplied with 12x Citadel 32mm Round Bases and 1x Amazon Team Transfer Sheet. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.

Amazon Pitch – Double-sided Pitch and Dugouts Set $50
The majority of stadia belonging to the Amazonians are located deep within the Lustrian jungle, concealed within clearings or hidden groves. However, the jungle climate is unpredictable at best, and the sweltering heat can be replaced by a torrential downpour at a moment’s notice. When the rains arrive they are likely to rouse various jungle creatures – these saurian spectators seldom pay for tickets, and are prone to attacking any unsuspecting Blood Bowl players that stray too close to the treeline.
One side of the pitch is a dense jungle floor littered with poisonous serpents, featuring a prominent Amazon Team icon in the centre. On the other side, torrential rainfall has flooded the pitch, attracting the colourful birds and great scaled beasts native to Lustria.
You’ll also find a pair of matching double-sided dugouts to complete the theme. Redesigned for the latest edition of the game, each dugout features score, turn, and re-roll trackers, plus Reserves, Knocked-out, and Casualty boxes.
Rules for using each side of the pitch in your games of Blood Bowl are included.
