About this expansion

Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire – Leaders is a 60-card expansion for two players, designed for games lasting around 60 minutes. Released in 2018, it adds a focused deck of cards to your Warhammer Underworlds card library.

This expansion introduces a further layer of tactical depth and complexity by placing the leaders of your warbands at the center of play. Every card affects a leader in some way, while many cards are restricted to leaders only. These effects can change how you play, give your leader impressive advantages, or help you exploit weaknesses in an opposing leader.

The deck contains three types of cards, offering different ways to shape your games:

  • 20 ploy cards
  • 20 objective cards
  • 20 upgrade cards

Of the 60 cards, 44 are universal and can be used by any warband. The remaining 16 cards are warband-specific, with two cards each for Magore’s Fiends, Sepulchral Guard, Ironskull’s Boyz, The Chosen Axes, Spiteclaw’s Swarm, Steelheart’s Champions, The Farstriders, and Garrek’s Reavers.

Whether you want to build around your own leader’s strengths or target an enemy leader’s weaknesses, the cards in Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire – Leaders provide new ways to approach your games. Add this deck to your collection and explore how leader-focused ploys, objectives, and upgrades can influence the battle.
