Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Spearhead

Age of Sigmar: Spearhead is a fast, tactical, and accessible game mode played with small, self-contained boxes of miniatures, featuring streamlined rules and unique mechanics designed for quicker games and as an entry point into the core game. Unlike larger battles, Spearhead uses a smaller board, specific army lists from the boxes (formerly Vanguard boxes), and special warscrolls to ensure balance and a unique experience. The mode is excellent for learning the game’s core mechanics or for experienced players seeking faster, skirmish-style battles.
