Warhammer: Age of Sigmar is revealing a new Spearhead game mode.

Games Workshop is revealing new details about its upcoming Spearhead game format for Warhammer : Age of Sigmar, which provides players with a shorter version of the game using pre-built armies. This week, Games Workshop provided new details about the upcoming Spearhead game mode for Warhammer : Age of Sigmar, the fantasy-themed cousin to Warhammer 40,000.

The new game mode is built around the new Spearhead unit boxes, which contain all the units needed to play a game of Spearhead. Notably, a game of Spearhead is played on a significantly smaller game table size than a normal game of Age of Sigmar, and only consists of 4 rounds.

Spearhead also uses more simplified rules in keeping with Age of Sigmar's modular ruleset. Spellcasting, for instance, is a unit ability in Age of Sigmar, turning some optional spells into the full version of the game into core abilities for units. Also included in the game are Battle Tactics and Command cards, which players can either use to score Victory Points by completing certain objectives on the card by the end of their turn or to issue extra commands to units, providing them with extra benefits. The game will also have a"Twist" deck, which provides extra rules and an advantage of some kind to the losing player.

Warhammer: Age of Sigmar's 4th Edition, which includes the new Spearhead mode, will be released later this year.

Warhammer 40K Introduces First Female Custodian in Adeptus Custodes CodexThe upcoming Adeptus Custodes codex for Warhammer 40K's 10th Edition includes a surprising update to the faction's lore, introducing the first female Custodian character, Calladayce Taurovalia Kesh. The claim, nothing in the lore stands against female Custodians, is just wrong. Codex: Space Marines (8th. Edition): "It is known that all Custodians begin their lives as the infant sons of the noble houses of Terra.” Codex: Space Marines (9th. Edition): “Potential custodians are taken in at a very young age to better survive – no older than late infancy – and it is a great honour for those of Terran noble houses to submit a son.”
