The Hive Fleet has descended, and their numbers are innumerable! Expect to face a huge number of opponents, and don’t expect to win. After each match, you will progress to the next level regardless of the result. This means that there is no chance to reattempt each level, and each battle will be different!

Each level is heavily themed and may require a different approach. To make sure you all have the best chance of dealing maximum damage before your inevitable demise, we have a small overview of each wave of the Horde. Each brief is not the whole picture, but gives the core theme and elements to prepare around. We want to make sure you have the best chance, and plenty of fun!
Good luck; you’re going to need it!

Looks exciting
If the chaos horde campaign is anything to go by, I’ll stick to the normal gameplay mode thank you very much.
This whole event is bullshit, whoever brainfarted should be beaten with their own broken legs, thank you for taking the fun out of wh40k and leaving only the grimm.
Hahahahahaha what a salty bunch
I’m actually enjoying the new mode. Up to lvl 14, one loss so far
I can beat that. Im at lvl 1000 and have minus 15 losses so far.
i can understand the idea of these campaigns but 24 victories to reach with super long fights and with a “fast mode” too slow by far…
It’s just too much.
This game really don’t respect the time of its players.
i’ve not bought any fancy cards, just the odd battlepass over the years, and managed to place in the 30s on this event.
I don’t think people managed to figure out how to win. wasn’t easy, had a ton of fun. thank you.
