Warhammer Quest: Shadows Over Hammerhal

About this board game

Warhammer Quest: Shadows Over Hammerhal is a dungeon adventure game for 2–5 players, with sessions lasting about 120 minutes. Set in and beneath the splendid city of Hammerhal, it sends a band of heroes into catacombs and dungeons to uncover a sinister Chaos plot.

Up to four players take the roles of the questing heroes, while another player becomes the gamemaster. The gamemaster reveals each dungeon’s secrets, sets fiendish obstacles, controls the antagonists, and guides the story as the heroes hunt the Chaos Sorcerer Lord Redomir.

The heroes include Lord-Castellant Arvios Sunhelm, his Gryph-hound Archimaine, Cogsmith Golnir Coalbeard, Loremaster Alnaryn, and Fleetmaster Vizrin Kyre. Their adventures lead through the dangerous outer districts and hidden depths of Hammerhal, where beauty, intrigue, poverty, fortune, and corruption exist side by side.

Between adventures, the party can spend time in the Cinderfall district, visiting shops, resting, and taking part in Hammerhal’s shadowy delights. Characters level up and increase their skills as play continues, while the game also supports the use of Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower Hero Cards, miniatures, and rules.
