The War for the Mortal Realms Escalates
At the core of this set is a bitter narrative struggle. The Stormcast Eternals of the Ruination Chamber are battle-hardened veterans who have sacrificed much of their humanity to protect the realms. Standing against them are the Skaven—vile, treacherous ratmen wielding unstable warpstone technologies and unleashing horrific mutations. Every model features exceptional dynamic posing, from the flowing robes of the wizards to the jagged armor plates and mechanical warp-weapons of the Under-Empire.
Launching Your New Journey
Skaventide is engineered to provide a comprehensive start to the new edition. Thanks to the included Spearhead components, you don't need to worry about purchasing extra units to balance your games—both forces are perfectly matched right out of the box. As your collection grows, these miniatures can easily form the core of a massive standalone army for either faction.
Why This Box Belongs on Your Hobby Bench
- Exceptional gameplay variety with two drastically different playstyles—elite discipline versus endless horde mechanics.
- Highly collectible hardback edition of the Core Book alongside the definitive debut of updated Skaven and Stormcast ranges.
- Tremendous value for money, combining two separate army forces, high-quality terrain pieces, and essential gaming aids.
A Classic Clash of Playstyles
- Stormcast Eternals (Resilient Elite): Relies on high armor saves, powerful single-model heroes, and steadfast infantry to lock down objectives and absorb heavy damage.
- Skaven (Overwhelming Swarm): Floods the board with expendable infantry units while using long-range weapon teams and heavy monsters to tear holes in enemy lines.
- Perfectly Balanced Gaming: This matchup provides an incredible tactical sandbox where the tactical placement and defensive traits of the Stormcast Eternals are pushed to the limit by the speed, numbers, and unpredictable firepower of the Skaven.
