Warhammer Underworlds Nethermaze

Warhammer Underworlds: Nethermaze

The Product Offer:

Warhammer Underworlds Nethermaze is the second installment in the exciting fifth season of Warhammer Underworlds.
Warhammer Underworlds continues to thrive (with over 300,000 games sold to date), being an ideal game for store and home with its accessibility to new players for pick up and play, quick playing time, and push fit models. Its also ideal for instore tournaments being one of Warhammers best tournament systems with its competative enviroment, small footprint and ease of play instore.
This boxed set provides everything a new player will need in order to play the game, including two all-new Warbands featuring some of the Mortal Realms’ most deadly assassins. This set includes Skittershank’s Clawpack of Skaven’s Clans Eshin, and The Shadeborn, a Khainite Shadowstalker warband for the Daughters of Khaine, for a total of 9 push-fit miniatures. Warhammer Underworlds: Nethermaze also includes 2 gaming boards, 114 tokens, 11 dice and 157 cards.Nethermaze continues where Harrowdeep left off and introduces some new game mechanics, while continuing to support the growing ‘Rivals’ format that was introduced with Harrowdeep.
The continued support of the ‘Rivals’ format is great for selling the boxed game to new customers, as by removing the deck building element of the game (which is still supported in other game formats), it lowers the barrier to entry yet again.

Nethermaze continues its support for the other game formats too by including 48 new Universal Cards and 36 new Grand Alliance Cards too, which means it also offers a new and challenging landscape for established Warhammer Underworlds customers to engage with, (as well as any who want to dive fully into the deck building aspect of the ‘Championships’ format), meaning that Warhammer Underworlds Nethermaze is a great hobby purchase for every customer in your store.Lastly, the new warbands in this set will also have rules for use in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, meaning there’s plenty of crossover with customers who will be looking to pick up Warhammer Age of Sigmar products for either the Skaven or Daughters of Khaine factions.

In Relation to Other Products:

Existing customers and fans of Warhammer Underworlds may want to pick up the two Warhammer Underworlds products that launch at the same time as Nethermaze, Rivals of Harrowdeep features the two warbands from the Warhammer Underworlds: Harrowdeep boxed game. Separately, an all-new Soulblight Gravelords warband, The Exiled Dead is also released on the same day, providing an excellent sales opportunity for any customers who previously purchased The Crimson Court warband (which is also a Soulblight Gravelords warband).If you have customers in store who are more interested in the ‘Rivals’ format, whether new customers or established customers, conversations around the Illusory Might Rivals Deck, or the Silent Menace Universal Deck would likely result in additional sales, while brand new Warhammer Underworlds customers would do well to pick up the Essential Cards Pack, as this product contains numerous fundamental objective and power cards that would be ideal for them to explore the deck building aspect of Warhammer Underworlds with. Avid Warhammer Underworlds fans will likely want to ensure their fifth season collection is complete and so may want to add the Blackpowder’s Buccaneers warband to their collection.
