This 112-page spiral-bound book contains everything you need to play balanced, competitive games using the rules from the first season, which lasts a year.
Inside you’ll find the Core and Advanced Rules, as well as the Season Rules – which are themed on powerful boons for your general’s honour guard. There are also 12 battleplans, representing a “greatest hits” list from previous editions, a rules update for all of the universal Endless Spells, and a Tournament Organizers' pack that provides advice for those who want to run events.
This 112-page spiral-bound hardback book contains:
- A brief background section bringing you up to speed with the latest narrative events in Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
- Matched Play Season Rules 2024-25. Includes 3x Honour Guard rules and 6x universal battle tactics usable by any faction throughout the season, alongside Grand Alliance-specific battle tactics.

- 12x Battleplans for the 2024-25 season, including maps marking where objectives are placed, as well as listing the terrain that should be used, and what rules they benefit from.
