Hordes is a table top game where the player takes control of a Warlock and his or her elite unit of warriors and beasts of war.
Each Warlock has certain strengths and works best with particular Beasts and/or infantry.
Warlocks can utilize a resource called fury to cast spells increase the damage of attacks, their accuracy, and even the strength and accuracy of their beasts. This primal energy is siphoned from the warbeasts by their controlling warlock.
Unlike many other table top games as soon as the Warlock is felled on the battle field the game is over, however, this is more often than not easier said than done.
Unlike Warhammer FB/40K Hordes armies are typically much smaller and only use 12-35 models in a tournament list.
Each army has a prticular strength and each of their Warlocks will capitalize on a particular part of that strength.
