Your experience starts with a Herald

Veteran players who teach you to play, organize games, and build community. Volunteers — because they love it.

What is a Herald?

A Herald is a veteran player accredited by Corvus Belli as a community ambassador. They organize games, tournaments, and intro games in their area. They don't work for us and don't earn anything for teaching you — they do it because they love the game and want more people to play with.

How can they help?

  • Set up an intro game with everything ready (miniatures, rules, table)
  • Teach you the games and help you find one that fits you
  • Introduce you to the local scene: stores, clubs, game days
  • Tell you about intro events and beginner leagues
  • Answer questions once you play (lists, rules, what to buy and what to skip)

What to expect from your intro game

  • An intro game usually takes about 1–2 hours, depending on the game.
  • You don't need miniatures or to know the rules. The Herald provides that.
  • Free, with no obligation to buy anything.
  • Come on your own or with people you like; at a store or club, depending on your area.

Hooked? This is the path most people follow:

  1. Start with Warcrow Battle Pack: The Song of the Dormant

    The battle pack has everything you need to keep playing at home or at the club.

  2. Create your CorvuSphere account

    Build lists with the Army Builder and find tournaments.

    Create Corvus ID
  3. Join the local group

    Ask whoever taught you about the club, store, or local group. If you already know which game you want, browse online groups in the community directory.

  4. Your first tournament
