The whole book can roughly be summarized in three parts: For only eight euros though, this seems to be quite okay, as the AoS rules are available for free on the net and the Skirmish rules come along with suprisingly much content, despite the small number of 40 pages. The rulebook for AoS Skirmish seems to be rather slim at first and unfortunately does not contain the four pages of the original AoS rules, which are required for the use of the booklet. All six scenarios can be played as a linked sequential campaign. The gangs clash in different scenarios, half of which are designed for a balanced game, while the other half contains a certain imbalance. From there on, the game takes on a size that is already sufficient for regular Age of Sigmar games. The size of the warbands is estimated throughout a points value called 'renown' and is usually between 25 and 100 renown large.

Choosing your warband is limited only within the grand alliance, not within a specific battletome. The rules of AoS Skirmish aim at building small, thematic warbands.

This scaling preserves the simplicity of Age of Sigmar's original framework and breaks the games playtime down to 30 to 60 minutes. 28Jul/18 0 Warhammer Age of Sigmar SkirmishĪlmost a year ago, in June 2017, Games Workshop has released an expansion for skirmish games, a band-oriented approach to playing Age of Sigmar, with just a handful of models.
