I’m more of a crunch guy, so let’s dive into the rest. The Urban Conquest rulebook is basically four parts: I was hoping the new Cities of Death objectives would be the same as the old deck that was published in White Dwarf, but no dice–they’re very close, but about 12 of the cards are different, and use new effects based on the new Key Building Stratagems (also, more on those later). These can be played with either Eternal War or Maelstrom of War settings, and while they’re pretty cool, I don’t see the Maelstrom versions getting much play without a deck of cards to draw from. I’ll get into this more later, but the book contains Matched Play missions for the Cities of Death rules. Anyways, what’s notably not in the box is a set of Maelstrom of War cards for Cities of Death missions. This is probably because they use standardized box sizes. Overall, it’s a solid collection, though the contents feel a little sparse, and I noticed that the box felt a little empty for what it contained. These are neat, and I like the concept behind them. There are also some plastic, removable peel-off stickers that can be applied to the map to denote territory upgrades and player control. I found this to be pretty annoying, but otherwise the cards are cool. Which, OK isn’t that big a deal, but it also meant that I don’t have any sleeves that fit them, not even the ones I have sized for the old objective cards in 7th edition. One thing you’ll notice about all of these cards is that they are all custom, non-standard sizes. In addition to these, there are 3 objective cards (more on those later), a bunch of Random Event cards with crazy effects, a small set of player Information cards, and a stack of Strategic Resource cards that can be purchased using the campaign’s main resource, strategic points. These are all pretty cool, and high quality. Of these, 5 are “special” locations, detailing one-off locations of strategic importance, such as the shield generator, power station, or orbital landing platform.

There’s a large deck of location cards designed to go into the map and plot out a full city.

The box also comes with a series of cards.
