Warhammer Battle Magic: Dark Elves contains 8 spells from the Lore of Dark Magic as presented in Warhammer: Dark Elves. They are printed on individual cards as a handy reference for use in your battles.

Each full-colour card describes one spell, and all the information you need to use it on the battlefield, including spell type, casting value and range. Not only are the spell cards a great, tactile way of representing magic in your games but on a practical level they make selecting spells easy and speed up play in the heat of battle.

You will need a copy of Warhammer and Warhammer: Dark Elves to use the contents of this set.

Warhammer Battle Magic: Dark Elves is available in strictly limited numbers - order now to avoid disappointment.

The Cauldron of Blood is a battlefield altar to Khaine, the bloody-handed God. Tended by a Death Hag and two Witch Elves, and imbued with the darkest enchantments, it drives nearby Dark Elves into a frenzied killing state. The Bloodwrack Shrine bears the terrifying Bloodwrack Medusa into battle. Should an enemy meet her gaze, they will die a horrifying and painful death as their blood flows from every pore.

This model can be assembled in two configurations: the Cauldron of Blood, or the Bloodwrack Shrine. Both are mounted atop a chassis that holds a raised cauldron atop two sets of stairs.

The Cauldron of Blood's main feature is the huge statue of Khaine set at the top. Two Witch Elves, each armed with a pair of daggers, act as crew whilst there is a choice of adding either a Death Hag armed with a dagger and holding a chalice, or the Hag Queen Hellebron armed with Deathsword and the Cursed Blade. There is a spare base included too, so whichever of these two characters you choose, you'll be able to make a model of the other on foot.

The Bloodwrack Shrine is instantly recognisable due to the presence of a Bloodwrack Medusa which stands on the top of the model. There is a spare monster base included which allows you to build the Bloodwrack Medusa on foot (or tail) should you wish. Behind the Bloodwrack Medusa stands a large mirror, whilst the two Shrinekeeper's are each armed with a spear and wear masks over their faces.

This plastic kit contains 95 components with which to make a Cauldron of Blood, or Bloodwrack Shrine.

This kit comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

Dark Elves make great use of monsters within their armies. The Kharibdyss is one such example, dragged from the depths of the oceans it is brutish and slow-witted, and rampages through terrified enemy battle lines. The War Hydra is notoriously difficult to slay, as each time a foe chops off one of its many fire breathing heads another swiftly grows back in its place.

The Dark Elf Kharibdyss and War Hydra miniatures share the same body, but the additional details allow you to make one of these unique creatures. The Kharibdyss is notable for having 5 heads. There are 4 small heads, each of individual design, and one larger head that is covered in spikes and has an extended lower jaw. To make the Kharibdyss look like the sea-dwelling creature that it is, there is a specific chest plate, left and right front talons, set of back spines, and spines to add to the legs. The tail is also unique to the Kharibdyss.

The War Hydra has 6 heads, all of which are of individual designs. The extra details are designed to look like fleshy, spiked membrane, setting it apart from the Kharibdyss' webbed appeareance. It has a specific chest plate, left and right front talons, set of back spines, and spines to add to the legs. There is also a specific tail to add to the War Hydra.

Whichever version of this kit you assemble there are two Dark Elf Beastmasters included. One is armed with two whipes, whilst the other brandishes a chained spear. Such fearsome weapons are required to keep their ferocious beasts in check.

This plastic kit contains 58 components with which to make a Kharibdyss, or War Hydra.

This kit comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

Witch Elves are the cruellest of all the Dark Elves. They live only to serve Khaine through the bloody sacrifice of their enemies. The Sisters of Slaughter are experts in deadly hand to hand fighting. Taken from the gladiatorial arenas of Nagarroth, they fight with a murderous prowess.

This box set contains enough parts to make either 10 Witch Elves, or 10 Sisters of Slaughter. The Witch Elves are each armed with a pair of daggers, and there are 12 heads (6 of which are individual designs). Each head has an additional head-dress and The Hag, who leads the regiment, can be denoted by using the version with 4 spikes (rather than the standard 3).

The Sisters of Slaughter are armed with whips and shields, and each wears a fully enclosed mask. There are 16 masked heads (8 of which are individual designs), and enough whips and shields for each member of the regiment. The Handmaiden of Shards is armed with a twin-tailed whip, and her mask features a forked tongue.

Also included in this box set are 2 banners, 3 individual banner tops, and a horn to denote the regiment's musician.

This plastic kit contains 67 components with which to make a 10 woman Witch Elf regiment, or Sisters of Slaughter regiment. Also included is 1 Dark Elves transfer sheet with which to add a variety of shield and banner designs.

This kit comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

Dark Elf armies are formed around a core of utterly merciless soldiers. The Dreadspears form deadly shieldwalls, bristling with wicked spearpoints. The Bleakswords are swordsmen of the highest skill who wield slender duelling blades. The Darkshards are armed with repeater crossbows, weapons which are capable of unleashing a blistering hail of bolts upon their enemies.

There are 9 bodies which have the heads already attached, whilst 1 body allows the addition of any of 3 separate heads (1 helmeted, and 2 bare). This can be used to make it easy to spot a Lordling or Guardmaster. There are 12 individual crests to add to the helmets and also included is a banner with the option to add any one of 3 individually designed banner tops.

This box set includes 10 spears, 11 swords arms, and 11 repeater crossbows included in this box set. There are also 11 unique shields (all of which feature embossed iconography), and a sheathed dagger.

This plastic kit contains 89 components with which to make a 10 man Dreadspear regiment, Bleakswords regiment, or Darkshards regiment. Also included is 1 Dark Elves transfer sheet with which to add a variety of shield and banner designs.

This kit comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

A killer of astonishing skill, Shadowblade is an assassin of legendary stature. Able to hide within regiments on the battle field, and even move between them, no opponent can predict when or where he will strike. All they know for certain is that if they are unlucky enough to encounter him, his face will be the last one they see.

This plastic kit contains 7 components with which to make Shadowblade armed with 2 daggers.

This kit comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

I think a return to the land of chill is on the cards, and I just started planning to take to the stars.

If I ever start a WHFB army, it'd be Dark Elves... Perhaps that was obvious though. ninja
