Disclaimer: I wrote this before the roadmap had been released. Apologies its not quite as topical. Government Mandated Update In a desperate bid to kick-start the economy, Rishi Sunak called our ‘offices’ directly last night, here is a short transcript of the call: “I would like to speak to the head of Steel City Underworlds.”...

Top Tournament Decks Toppled
I have transcended and become a photoshop god... This article is going to look at the top five decks from the recent 62 player online tournament and assess just how they are all affected by the recent FAR update. This should give our precious readers a decent insight into how this latest update will affect... Continue Reading →
Deck-build: The Wurmspat
(Grand)Daddies Home Having lumbered their way through two large online tournaments, the Wurmspat have maintained a somewhat staggeringly good win-rate despite many nay-sayers nay-saying nay along the way. The warband fighter cards have proved more than a match for the field, especially with enough good universal objectives and gambits existing to patch up the holes... Continue Reading →
Deck Build: The Troll Unleashed
Look at the shiny new image. Steel City are starting to up our game... Intro Phew. It's been a while. Apologies for the shocking lack of content over the past few months, there is really no one but myself to blame (and Tom, I can always blame Tom). I'd like to trot out the tired... Continue Reading →
Is the Lockdown Meta Better?
What does the meta look like with Hrothgorn and the Wurmspat now firmly part of the Beastgrave. Stuck inside many of us have been crafting decks using two expansions we had very little chance to get to grips with.

Are we still in an objective meta? Maybe.

It’s an old... Continue Reading →
Hrothgorn’s Mantrappers
Thanks to discord user jibbi for assembling this meme image for me Intro Look I have a confession to make. I like big boi’s. There I said it. Up until now there hasn’t been a warband that I have loved more then Mollog the Mighty. It is incredibly satisfying to really drill down all the... Continue Reading →
The Neutral Cards from Hrthgorn’s Mantrappes and the Wurmspat Expansions
Early Bird Words The wonderful folks over on the games workshop community team revealed all of the cards contained in the two new expansions via Facebook earlier this week, meaning that we at Steel City can actually review stuff on time… provided I write like the wind. This article will continue the Steel City tradition... Continue Reading →
Rippa’s Snarlfangs – A Long Overdue Review
Why is this review so late? After winning the October Grand Clash with the Grymwatch I was looking for a totally different playstyle and warband to master for the next (January) one, I had put so much practice into the Grymwatch that the idea of playing them anymore was incredibly off putting. With the release... Continue Reading →
Your FaRed!!!
In new ultra high resolution! Intro A new year brings a new update to the underworlds FaR list, and perhaps a welcome one to shake up the fairly engrained objective style meta that is currently ‘controlling’ (heh) the game. With noteworthy additions to both the Forsaken and Restricted sides it's pretty certain that the changes... Continue Reading →
