Welcome to Warhammer Underworlds: Online's new single player Challenges. It's time to break the rules of the game and let your warbands run riot! The foes may seem familiar, but the rules and scenarios are very different. Complete Challenges, unlock new artwork and skins, and experience Warhammer Underworlds in a new way!
The rules of the Challenges are pretty simple:
- Each warband has six Challenges each.
- When a Challenge is completed, players will unlock the next Challenge!
- All players have access to the first two Challenges for each warband, regardless of whether they have purchased the DLC.
- Should a player complete the second Challenge, they need to purchase that warband as DLC to unlock Challenges 3 to 6.
- Each Challenge has three special Objective Glory Tokens to win:
- Defeating an opponent by scoring more Glory than the opponent by the end of Round 3.
- Scoring at least three Objective Cards in a match.
- Scoring at least six Objective Cards in a match.
- Once all three Objective Glory Tokens are collected, players will unlock the player portrait connected with that Challenge.
- Objective Glory Tokens will also count towards unlocking a new skin for that warband. Collecting twelve of those Tokens will unlock a new skin for that warband!
- For each Challenge, players start with 9 Objective Cards in their hand.
- Opponents start with a fixed number of Glory but no Objective Cards.
- The player's Power Card deck is fixed and will come out in the same order each time.
- The opponent's Power Card deck is randomised.
PLEASE NOTE: The Challenges mode is in beta, but feature complete for three warbands: Magore's Fiends, Ironskull's Boyz and The Farstriders! The descriptions are also available only in English at this stage.
