Announcing Six New Expansions for the Runewars Miniatures Game

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_1

Battles continue to rage across the ancient land of Terrinoth, as the Daqan Lords and Waiqar’s Undead Legion expand their armies, new powerful heroes join both sides. The fires of war rain upon both factions and new reinforcements are vital to victory.

Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce six upcoming expansions for the Runewars Miniatures Game:

  • Lord Hawthorne Hero Expansion
  • Ankaur Maro Hero Expansion
  • Rune Golems Unit expansion
  • Spearmen Unit Expansion
  • Reanimates Unit Expansion
  • Carrion Lancers Unit Expansion

Each expansion offers a unique way to continue to grow your Runewars Miniatures Game army. The Spearmen Unit Expansion and the Reanimates Unit Expansion offer identical sculpts to those found in the Runewars Core Set, but offer new upgrade cards and enough miniatures to field another version of each unit in your army. The Carrion Lancers Unit Expansion and Rune Golems Unit Expansion offer two sculpts each, one identical sculpt to the version found in the Core Set and one new sculpt, as well as additional upgrade cards. Finally, the Lord Hawthorne Hero Expansion and the Ankaur Maro Hero Expansion introduce two brand new heroes to the world of the Runewars Miniature Game, each with their own unique upgrades and sculpts.

Lord Hawthorne Hero Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_2

As a young man, Lord Hawthorne’s home of Seragart was beset by a horde of barbarians led by a mysterious warlord wielding foul sorcery. As a descendent of Sir Rodric the Strong, Hawthorne was not one to sit idly by. Though badly outnumbered, Hawthorne charged out of the gates with the city’s remaining troops, taking the barbarians by surprise, and uncovering the malicious power behind the attacks: the renegade sorcerer Ankaur Maro. Though the defenders of the city were eventually able to break the siege, Maro managed to escape.

Hawthorne was knighted for his bravery in the defense of Seragart, and vowed to never again let a foe escape his blade. Now, rumors swirl that Ankaur Maro has made his return as a servant of Waiqar, and Lord Hawthorne rides forward, determined to defeat his old foe once and for all.

The Lord Hawthorne Hero Expansion includes two different figures for Lord Hawthorne to add to your Daqan army, a mounted and unmounted version, as well as six new upgrade cards, four of which will improve any army and two that are exclusive to Lord Hawthorne. We’ll explore the finer details of Lord Hawthorne in a future preview.

Lead the Daqan forces to glorious victory with the Lord Hawthorne Hero Expansion!

Ankaur Maro Hero Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_4

Few names inspire fear in the citizens of Terrinoth like Ankaur Maro. As a young wizard studying at the Universities of Greyhaven, Maro quickly became known for his great skill and even greater ambition. This drive and disregard for boundaries in pursuit of power became his undoing though, and Ankaur Maro was expelled from Greyhaven a disgrace. Not one to be deterred, Maro soon found himself in the inner circle of dark sorcerers, where he learned the secrets of flesh and blood and bone and death. Now, Maro has found a new home in the service of Waiqar the Undying, his powerful dark magic a beacon of strength for the undying legion.

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_5

The Ankaur Maro Hero Expansion comes with two Ankaur Maro figures for Waiqar’s forces in the form of cavalry and infantry versions, as well as six upgrade cards, four for use with any army and two exclusively for use with Ankaur Maro. We’ll explore Ankaur Maro more in a future preview.

Seek ultimate power, raise the dead, and overwhelm your opponent with mystic arts with the Ankaur Maro Hero Expansion.

Rune Golems Unit Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_6

Deep within the ancient fortresses of Terrinoth stand ancient stone guardians, ever vigilant. These monoliths of war are only ever awakened when the need is dire, an only a few Lords and Wizards know the secrets that can imbue the golems with life. The strength and ferocity of these golems knows no equal, scything their massive blades through infantry and cavalry with ease. Rune Golems will stop at nothing to destroy the enemies of the Daqan, only to return to their hidden slumber until called upon again.

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_7

The Rune Golems Unit expansion features two Rune Golem Plastic Figures, one new sculpt and one identical to the Rune Golem found in the Core set, as well as eight upgrade cards to help you build your army anyway you choose. Look for a future preview detailing the damage these Rune Golems will do to your foes.

Spearmen Unit Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_8

When the fires of war threaten the land of Terrinoth, the rank-and-file of Daqan form a mighty bulwark to protect their homes, and the spearman rise to the challenge of keeping their lands safe. The rows of infantry clad in the Citadel’s own colors—majestic blue and gold—march as a symbol of safety and security to those who make their home in the Land of Steel.

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_9

The Spearmen Unit Expansion comes with eight Spearmen plastic figures and two plastic infantry movement trays to expand your Daqan army either through improving an already existing infantry unit or forming another. Five additional upgrade cards for any army will give you the tools you need to push back any force. Look for more information on the Spearmen in an upcoming preview.

Reanimates Unit Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_10

Though each Reanimate is but a fraction of the being they were when they followed Waiqar in life, the legion of skeletal warriors still strike fear into the hearts of those that would stand against them. An unquenchable spite and unbreakable loyalty to the dread Waiqar the Undying drive the legion forward to destroy anything in their path.

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_11

Featuring eight reanimate plastic figures in four different sculpts, the expansion contains everything you need to add a Reanimates infantry unit to your own army.

Carrion Lancers Unit Expansion

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_12

The massive Carrion Worms that follow the armies of Waiqar the Undying are not easily tamed, but always prove to be valuable assets for the Carrion Worm Masters on the field of battle. Carrion Worms are swift for their size and inspire fear in the heartiest of Waiqar’s enemies, spewing noxious bile and laying waste to their foes.

FFG_Fantasy_Flight_Games_Runewars_Expansion_Boxes_Preview_13

The Carrion Lancers Unit Expansion features two Carrion Lancer Plastic Figures, one new and one identical to the Core Set, to grow your legions of undead.

  • Das Pony von Lord Pierce Hawthorne will mir leider so gar nicht gefallen. Die Grundeinheiten sind solide soweit mann das auf den Bildern erkennen kann, aber nichts herrausragendes. Durch die übertriebenen Absätze wie bei den Schildern und Schulterpanzern der Speerträgern sowie das sie nicht überladen mit Details sind sollte es auch Malanfängern möglich sein anständige Ergebnisse zu erzielen.
    Das ist toll und könnte frischen Wind in die Tabletopszene bringen. Wenn es jetzt noch so flüssig von der Hand geht wie X-Wing wäre es perfekt.

    Besonders gefällt mir Ankaur Maro auf seinem Knochwurmgeist, der hat mal Stil 😉

    • Stimme ich absolut zu. Ich habe aktuell so gar keine Lust auf ein neues Tabletop. Und was ich bisher von Rune Wars gesehen habe überzeugt mich nicht…

  • Also mir gefällt es…Werde nur leider bald mit Heroquest 25 beschäftigt sein😀

    Aber bis auf die beiden Helden sind das doch die Einheiten aus der Grundbox, oder?

    • Sind denn schon wieder die nächsten 25 Jahre um? 😉
      Mein Gott war mein Winterschlaf lang.

    • Da bin ich echt gespannt ob sie den März einhalten. Kannst mir ehrlich gesagt nicht vorstellen.

  • Ich finde es gut, trotz das es ein Einheitsbase ist, dass die Minis dadrauf nicht alle gleich sind, da hin habe sie sich Mühe gegeben. Der Möchtegern galia auf dem Pferd finde ich irgend wie niedlich, mal erfrischend anders.
    Spontan würde ich es nicht kaufen, da ich noch immer meinen letzten kickstarter nicht ausgepackt geschweige Zusammenbau……

  • Interessant wäre zu wisen, ob es die Reglen, Karten und Einheitenräder auch separat zu kaufen geben wird. Weil die Reglen klingen interessant, aber Minis hab ich genug.

    • Ich denke das würde den unterstellten Absichten, möglichst viele Figuren verkaufen zu wollen, widersprechen. 😉

      • Lieber Regeln & Co verkaufen, als garnichts. 😉

        Denn für mich wären auch nur die Nichtminibestandteile des Spieles interessant

  • Welchen Maßstab haben die eigentlich? Bevor ich mir da eine Golembox holen – weil die gefallen mir schon sehr gut – würde mich schon interessieren, ob sie in einem 28mm-Dungeon als Golems oder eher als Golemchens rumlaufen würden.

  • Die Frage ist doch auch, wie sehr der Power Creep mit den neuen Einheiten ist. Bei X-Wing ist es ja fast immer so, dass man sich die neuen Sachen kaufen MUSS damit „kompetetiv“ spielen will…

    Weiss man schon, ob wie bei X-Wing Ausrüstungskarten dabei sein werden?

  • Das ist bei GW ähnlich und bei den meisten anderen spielen auch so. Von daher kein Argument für oder gegen den Kauf. Zumindest aus meiner Sicht
