1. An Epic Battle Without The Hassle: Kings of War takes the crown when it comes to tabletop warfare without the headaches. No more spending hours poring over a library's worth of expensive, intricate books or getting tangled in complicated unit interactions. Multibasing unlocks cool new modelling opportunities, and much faster gameplay. The whole thing is a breath of fresh air, allowing you to dive straight into the action and focus on what really matters: strategically smashing the enemy!

2. Your Starter For Two: Imagine a fantasy wargame without a great starter set...*shudder*. Well, we have plenty for you to choose from - all unbeatable value and even including the rulebook!

Want Ogres vs Empire of Dust? How about Halflings vs Riftforged Orcs? Oh alright, maybe Ratkin vs Goblins. And that’s before we even start on the epic new Ice & Shadow set, which pits the shiny new Nightstalkers against the even shinier, even newer Northern Alliance...there's something for everyone!

3. Regular Support and Fair Prices: The Kings of War team is made up of real hobbyists and gamers like you, and we work hard to keep the game fresh, balanced and supported through the year. And with each army release (or refresh) we bring you brilliant value Ambush, Army and Mega Army boxes that form the core of your collection. Kings of War lets you build fantastic armies without breaking the bank!

4. A Friendly Community: Kings of War boasts a vibrant and welcoming international community that is always ready to welcome new players with open arms. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a fresh-faced recruit, you'll find plenty of fellow enthusiasts to share your triumphs, exchange tactics, and engage in friendly banter. Who says wargaming can't be a social affair?

5. No Waiting Around: Kings of War is here, it’s real, it’s great, it never went away, and you can play it TODAY!

So, there you have it! Kings of War offers a refreshing take on the fantasy wargaming experience from a super-passionate and independent hobby company.

And we didn't even mention all the stunning new hard plastic kits, the STL library, living rulebooks, the free army list builder, the world's amazing lore for free...ah whoops, we just did!

So, General....it's time to rally your troops, grab those dice, and conquer the tabletop battlefield like never before!
