About the game
Cruel, cunning and treacherous, the Gloomspite Gitz infest the dank places of the Mortal Realms like a mouldering fungus. Though anarchic creatures by their very nature, when they unite under a common cause they are capable of wholescale destruction. Spread anarchy and mayhem across the Eightpoints with this Warcry card pack! Combined with the Core Rules and your miniatures, this set allows you to command a warband of anarchic Gloomspite Gitz in your skirmish battles. An abilities card allows you to use deadly in-game tactics and powers, while a set of fighter cards provide profiles for Boingrot Bounderz, Squig Hoppers, Stabbas, Shootas, Squig Herders and Cave Squigs. This set contains an abilities card in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, and Russian, as well as several fighter cards. Please note that a copy of the Warcry Core Book is needed to use this set. —description from the publisher
