Such warbands follow strange auguries and subterranean constellations that point them to places of power, lost relics, and objects that can shape the very future.

Get stuck into Warhammer Underworlds or mix up your game with the complete Paths of Prophecy Rivals deck, usable by any warband – including those from past seasons. These cards can be used as a standalone deck in Rivals games, mixed with a warband's unique cards for Nemesis games, or used to build a deck from the ground up in Relic games. This deck doesn’t include any spells, so warbands from any season can put it to good use. Each card is brand new to the game, focused on seizing and holding specific objectives according to their prophetic significance. Warbands with lots of models which look to control the board, such as Skabbik's Plaguepack and Grinkrak's Looncourt, will find Paths of Prophecy particularly suited to their play style. This deck contains a 32-card universal Rivals deck consisting of: 12x objective cards 10x gambit cards 10x upgrade cards 1x background card that includes a deck list of the Paths of Prophecy cards —description from the publisher
