A new Realm and Adversaries for Solo and Cooperative Warhammer: Age of Sigmar Adventures
The Realm of Metal is a harsh and inhospitable place. Vast sheets of metal take the shape of trees,
mountains, rocks and even rivers. Flowing white hot metal leaks from the vast volcanic cracks to the
south and the slick frozen surfaces of great metallic flows race across the brittle surfaces of the north. The
beasts that dwell here are dangerous, having adapted to so strange and environment in incredible ways.
But great treasures litter the realm and that has drawn the most insidious and industrious of vermin to
gnaw at its iron bones; the Skaven.
As Realm Quest expands your Adventuring Party will be able to explore and do battle in new Mortal
Realms. This expansion details what you need to know for your Adventurers to set forth to the Realm of
Metal: Chamon. The rules that follow will explain your Adversary units for this Realm and any Special
Rules required.
GETTING STARTED
During the BEGINNING AN ADVENTURE step of a game of Realm Quest, you may select the
following additional Realm;
If you are Adventuring in Chamon at Battle Levels 1-3, your Adversaries will be SKAVEN.

not in your collection, re-roll the result or pick an option for which you have appropriate models.

up D3 Entry Points closer to the Party, there is no need to roll D6. In a Wilderness Encounter they are not
set up at the beginning of the game. Instead, the first time they are called upon to activate place them
outside of 9 Inches of the Adventuring Party, then roll for their behaviour.
Rat Swarms
Endless Tide of Rats: When this minion unit activates in the Action Phase, before rolling on their
behaviour chart, they use this ability.

Activate, it uses this ability. If there are no eligible units for it to deploy in, it arrives within 3” of a
random table edge or Entry Point instead, not within 3” of any member of the Adventuring Party, then it
rolls to Activate.
Arch-Warlock
More-More Stormcage: When this Boss is eligible to fire this weapon it will always choose to use this
ability.

will always choose to use this ability. It may only do so once per adventure.
Warp Lightning Storm: Each time this model is picked to activate, once all its actions determined by the
behaviour table have been resolved, it will attempt to cast the Warp Lightning Storm spell. Enemy
WIZARDS can attempt to unbind this spell as normal. If it is successfully cast, it will affect members of
the Adventuring Party, starting with the closest visible model and working to the furthest.
Unbind: This Boss will attempt to unbind the first spell cast by a Hero in the Adventuring Party during
their Hero Phase if it is within range to do so.
