Warhammer Underworlds is a competitive game. GW tell us that at every opportunity; and by-and-large that’s a good thing. Competitive games are good. Tournaments are fun; but it does have the unfortunate effect of creating a winner-takes-all mentality, that can be hurtful to players, and to the game alike.   So, what do we do when the results don’t go as planned?  Managing expectations Spectacularly bad advice There is one glass trophy on offer per tournament (now with fancy Masters code!). We implicitly understand that, if there’s 15 people at the tournament, most of them will be going home in varying shades of disappointment.

Well doesn’t time fly! It only feels like last week since we were doing this. The Wurmspat have dropped with an audible splat, and it’s now up to us to pick through the grisly remains like an overly fussy soothsayer. As normal, this is a Gitz focussed review. Amazingly enough, because this means we’re reviewing only universal cards, a lot of them will be have as good or perhaps greater utility in other warbands, but my focus will be on the little green chaps. Broadly speaking I feel that there’s lots of power here, if you’re willing to invest.

That said, Nightmare in The Shadows (why couldn’t you have called it Shove GW? Think of the bloggers next time) is ridiculous, and Perfect Match might have singlehandedly resuscitated aggro (heck, it might even enable Aggro Gitz!) Read on!
