They have an average movement of 5”, 1 wound each save for the Ogor, and Bravery 6, and they have a decent ranged and melee attack. The unit can be bought in blocks of 8, maxing out at 32, for 70 points. In Age of Sigmar, the function much the same way, bringing a relatively high save of 4+ and a 3 wound bruiser model. In Warcry, the Iron Golems are the hardiest of the warbands, with high toughness and an exceptionally high would count, making them very hard to put down without concentrated effort. Hailing from the metallic realm of Chamon, the Iron Golems are excellent blacksmiths, and go to the Eight Points to prove the strength of their arms and armor in hopes of making weapons of war for Archaon. But even better than the already fantastic game, every warband can be taken as a unit in a Slaves to Darkness Chaos army, representing those fighters that rose from the Eight Points and gained Archaon’s favor. The models, the rules, everything looks like it’s going to be an amazing game, and I can’t wait to get my first few warbands painted up and get playing.

Last week, GW put up the new skirmish game Warcry for two week preorder, and oh man does it look incredible. Here are my thoughts on using the first three warbands released, and some strategies for using them on the battlefield. Get ready for Warcry Warbands on your AoS tabletop.
