Review: Warhammer Underworlds Thanatek’s Tithe warband
Death claims its tithe in the latest Warhammer Underworlds warband. We’re reviewing Thanatek’s Tithe, the new Ossiarch Bonereapers warband that brings a Flex-style playstyle focused on cadaver tokens and tactical resurrection. With five fighters including the four-armed Thanatek and his two-headed retainers, this warband offers unique mechanics but raises questions about sculpt quality. In this review, we examine the models with high-res sprue images.

Review: Warhammer Underworlds: Spitewood
Following the reboot of Warhammer Underworlds with the current second edition, the first expansion now arrives after the Embergard starter set and the individual warband boxes. Warhammer Underworlds: Spitewood shifts the setting to the Realm of Life, Ghyran, into the eponymous Spitewood forests. It includes two new warbands and Rivals decks, as well as a new Ghyran-themed board featuring a fresh hex mechanic. Let’s take a closer look at the contents – and, most importantly, the models.
