Factions

Beastmen

Savage half-man, half-beast creatures of Chaos who lurk in the forests, raiding and destroying in the name of the Dark Gods.

Bretonnia

A chivalric human kingdom inspired by medieval France, where noble knights pursue the Grail quest and peasant levies fill the ranks.

Chaos Warriors

Mortal warriors of the Chaos Gods from the frozen north, clad in dark armour and driven by the desire for power and mutation.

Dark Elves

The cruel and sadistic elves of Naggaroth, raiders and slavers who worship Khaine and seek to destroy their High Elf kin.

Dwarfs

Stubborn, honour-bound mountain warriors who never forget a grudge. Dwarfs combine heavy armour, powerful artillery, and ancient craftsmanship.

Ogre Kingdoms

Massive, brutish mercenaries from the Mountains of Mourn who fight for food, gold, and the thrill of battle.

Orcs & Goblins

The greenskin hordes of the Old World — brutal orcs and cunning goblins united by a love of fighting and looting.

Skaven

The vast rat-man civilisation lurking beneath the Old World, plotting to overthrow the surface races with warpstone-powered weapons and sheer numbers.

The Empire

The largest human nation in the Old World, a feudal state modelled on the Holy Roman Empire, defended by state troops, knights, and battle wizards.

Tomb Kings

The undead armies of ancient Nehekhara, skeletal warriors animated by the will of their mummified kings seeking to reclaim their lost empire.

Vampire Counts

Undead lords and their shambling legions, ruled by ancient vampires who command the dead to rise and serve their dark will.

Warriors of Chaos

The combined forces of Chaos — warriors, daemons, and monsters — marching south in the Great Chaos Incursion.

Wood Elves

The wild elves of Athel Loren, guardians of the ancient forest who fight with unmatched speed and deadly archery.
