Battle for the Coral Gate – Setting The Scene
The treacherous waters surrounding the Brokenwall Islands are home to an unseen fortress of sorts – a vast portal-like reef known to the Neriticans as the Coral Gate. From here, the Trident Realm monitors every ship that traverses the surface of their territory, and holds a bulwark against the vile influence of the Infernal Vent – an entrance deep under the sea, that leads to hell.
Attacking the Trident Realm across a wide front, the great archfiend, the Lord of Lies has mustered a massive army to assault the Coral Gate, and stop the forces based there from aiding their beleaguered allies elsewhere. The great naiad Centurion Glozmyrl finds herself face pitted against an old foe, a demonic seductress known as Bloodwing.
While these two spar and maneuver their forces into position, they have dispatched their captains to secure ground that will give them the advantage in the upcoming war. Naarrghh the Depth Horror Eternal, leads his small warband out to stop the Efreet Tu’Lor’Gar from gaining the upper hand and flanking the main Neritican forces…
If you’re up to speed with your Kings of War lore, you’ll already know that this story ties into the wider events of the Deepwater Crusade in our recently released book Clash of Kings 2025.
(NOTE: If all this is news to you, don’t worry! Clash of Kings 2025 is not required to play the contents of this set, but it’s a highly recommended read and the perfect next step! Catch up with the latest in-world events, complete faction lists that expand on the included booklet, amazing art, extra scenarios, and much more.)
Now we’re giving you a small part of the wider story to make your own, playing through a linked series of fun starter scenarios and write your own tales against a backdrop of the major events taking place in Pannithor.

Kings of War ist unter anderem bei unserem Partner Minyarts erhältlich.
Ich mag ja die Regeln von Mantic. KoW ist vielleicht nicht das beste Spiel aller Zeiten, aber ich krame es immer wieder gerne raus, und es ist eine der besten Möglichkeiten ein Spiel mit dem Gefühl von Warhammer zu spielen.
Bei dem Set denke ich aber, sie hätten lieber die Minis weglassen sollen. Diese Wurm-Zentauren. Oh Gott, da werden Erinnerungen an den Mantic Drachen wach…
Das können die doch besser!
Ich finde die Java super.
Aber ich finde, es sind einfach viel zu viele Starterboxen. Und bei deutschen Händlern liegen die rum, teilweise noch mit alten bzw. „originalen“ Buch.
Naga – dumme Autokorrektur.
