Beyond the borders of the Old World's civilised kingdoms, far from the magnificent cities, castles, and fortresses of the Empire and Bretonnia, vast tribes of Orcs, Goblins, and Trolls rule over savage and unforgiving lands. In these brutal territories, power is not determined by noble ancestry or sophisticated diplomacy, but by raw strength, ruthless ambition, and the ability to shout loudly enough to make everyone else obey. Greenskin tribes spend much of their time fighting among themselves, with rival warlords constantly battling for dominance. Yet should these quarrelsome hordes ever unite beneath the banner of a single mighty WAAAGH!, they could sweep across the kingdoms of the Old World in an almost unstoppable tide of destruction. Arcane Journal: Orc & Goblin Tribes is a 48-page supplement for Warhammer: The Old World that explores the savage history of the Badlands, the brutal traditions of greenskin warfare, and the distinctive armies that emerge from these dangerous territories. Combining atmospheric background material with additional rules and army-building options, this expansion offers exciting new ways to bring your collection of Orcs and Goblins to the battlefield.

What does Arcane Journal: Orc & Goblin Tribes contain, and what new possibilities does it offer Warhammer: The Old World players? This 48-page supplement is divided into four major sections, each exploring a different aspect of greenskin history and warfare. History of the Badlands takes a closer look at the harsh, arid landscape that the Orc & Goblin Tribes call home, revealing more about the dangerous territories where might makes right. A Waaagh! Abroad follows the destructive campaign of a Nomadic Waaagh! Warboss as he plunders and burns his way through the Border Princes and beyond, and includes a narrative scenario inspired by a classic ambush in a mountain pass. Heroes of Legend introduces the background and rules for two infamous characters, Kiknik Toofsnatcha and Ogdruz Swampdigga, allowing players to explore their place within the greenskin world. Finally, Armies of Infamy provides rules for two distinctive Orc & Goblin armies: the Nomadic Waaagh! and the Troll Hordes. These additional army options allow you to organise your existing miniatures into thematic forces with their own identities, offering fresh inspiration for both army building and narrative battles.

The Badlands are a place where survival belongs to the strongest, the most cunning, and often the most thoroughly unpleasant. Across their dusty plains, dangerous mountain passes, and isolated settlements, brutal warlords gather their followers, eager to raid, conquer, and prove their superiority over anyone unfortunate enough to stand in their way. This savage setting provides a rich backdrop for the stories and army options presented in the supplement, allowing players to explore different aspects of greenskin culture and warfare. The Nomadic Waaagh! evokes the image of a constantly roaming horde of raiders, driven onwards by the promise of plunder and battle, while the Troll Hordes offer an opportunity to build an army around the terrifying creatures that accompany the Orc & Goblin Tribes. The legendary characters add further personality and depth to the setting, giving players new figures around whom to imagine their campaigns and battles. Meanwhile, the included narrative scenario provides an opportunity to recreate the tension and excitement of an ambush in a narrow mountain pass. Whether you enjoy competitive army building, thematic collections, or storytelling through tabletop battles, the additional material provides plenty of inspiration for exploring the unpredictable world of greenskin warfare.

Arcane Journal: Orc & Goblin Tribes is an excellent choice for Warhammer: The Old World players who want to deepen their understanding of the Orc & Goblin Tribes, discover more about the savage lands they inhabit, and expand their armies with additional rules and distinctive force-building options. The 48-page supplement is particularly valuable for hobbyists who already own a collection of Orc and Goblin miniatures and want to explore new ways of organising and fielding their warriors. The legendary heroes, alternative armies, and narrative content also provide excellent inspiration for painting projects, themed units, and custom campaigns that bring the character of the Badlands to life on the tabletop. If you are ready to follow infamous warlords across the dusty Badlands, uncover the legends of the greenskin tribes, and unleash new forms of destruction upon the battlefields of the Old World, this expansion offers a fantastic next chapter for your army. After all, a proper WAAAGH! never truly ends – it simply finds another enemy to fight!

Important: To use the rules in this expansion, you will also need the separately available Warhammer: The Old World Rulebook and Warhammer: The Old World – Ravening Hordes, as this supplement builds upon the content of those books.
