Warhammer The Old World: Battle March General's Companion

Take command of your grand host, fine-tune your logistics, and guide your army through grueling campaigns where every strategic decision echoes across the World of Legend.

Warhammer: The Old World – Battle March General's Companion is an essential, 96-page softback supplement designed for dedicated generals looking to elevate their tabletop campaigns and matched play organization. Released in late 2025 by Games Workshop, this tactical companion acts as an ultimate toolkit for running narrative map campaigns, tracking unit progression, and organizing large-scale tournament play. While the core rules dictate how your regiments clash on the battlefield, the General's Companion provides the overarching structural framework to turn individual tabletop victories into a grand, interconnected war for continental dominance.

The book introduces a deeply immersive, modular campaign system that fits seamlessly alongside the core rank-and-flank rules. Players can establish their own territorial maps, manage supply lines, and watch their units gain veteran abilities—or suffer permanent scars—from battle to battle. For competitive players, the supplement offers updated, standardized matched play scenarios, balanced terrain placement guidelines, and official tournament scoring sheets. Packed with beautifully illustrated narrative maps, army roster templates, and strategic advice for balancing asymmetrical multi-player campaigns, this companion is a must-have for any player looking to breathe long-term narrative life into their miniature collection.
