Madtown Throwdown Q4 2022 - Nov 5 - Madison WI

YOUR CHAMPION: ALEXX & the gnarlspirit pack

What is the Madtown Throwdown Q4 event?

The Madtown Throwdown Q4 is an Warhammer Underworlds Event to be held at Noble Knight Games in Madison, WI hosted by the What The Hex Podcast. If luck is with us, it may even be a Gnarlwood kick-off event!

The format will be the new Nemesis format. Four rounds. Best of one. New players encouraged and just like our previous events, we’ll have extra warbands, dice, and boards available if you need them.


Come throw down!

If OP kits are out, we plan to have one. If not- we still have “legacy” glass to give away, so you’ve still got a trophy to show for it. There will also be prizes for best painted, best sports, and maybe a little something just for showing up.

What is Nemesis?

Nemesis is the new format for Warhammer Underworlds that encourages players to add just a pinch of spice to their warband’s deck by allowing players to mix in cards from a single 32 card pack known as a Universal Rivals Deck (see Deck Construction below). The format is meant to be an approachable introduction to deckbuilding for players.

Note: This format was previously referred to by a few unofficial names including “Rivals Plus” and “Warlords”.
