Grand Alliance Chaos Warscrolls
The PDF lists the warbands that can use either Grand Alliance Chaos warscroll below. Magore's Fiends is not struck through, so it can use either of them.
The following warbands can use either of the warscrolls below: Skabbik's Plaguepack, Grashrak's Despoilers, Godsworn Hunt, Gnarlspirit Pack (struck through), The Wurmspat (struck through), Eyes of the Nine, Skittershank's Clawpack (struck through), Garrek's Reavers, Magore's Fiends.
The struckthrough warbands now have their own printed cards for the Warhammer Underworlds: Spitewood season.
Grand Alliance Chaos: Corrupters
Inspire: Immediately after your opponent's Action step, if there are more friendly fighters than enemy fighters in neutral territory, Inspire each friendly fighter in that territory.
Roots of Chaos: Immediately after a friendly fighter Delves a feature token, give each enemy fighter within 2 hexes of that feature token/within 2 hexes of them a Stagger token.
The printed card gives both wordings, "within 2 hexes of that feature token" and "within 2 hexes of them", separated by a slash. Both are transcribed as printed.
Aura of Ruin: Such is this entity's corrupting aura that merely being in proximity to it causes the flesh to writhe and soul to scream.
Use this in your Power step. Pick an enemy fighter with a Stagger token that is adjacent to a friendly fighter and not vulnerable. Inflict 1 damage on that enemy fighter. This ability can only be used once per game.
Purge the Weak: Servants of the Dark Gods are swift to spot the enemy's most vulnerable warriors and dispose of them bloodily.

Magore's Fiends Fighter Cards
The PDF prints the warband's fighter cards in two rows of four. The top row has grey borders; the bottom row has gold borders. Each card shows its name, a line of subtitle names, its stat icons, and a stat line at the bottom. The stat line reads, left to right: the crossed-swords (attack type) icon, the first value (a hexagon icon), the second value (a crossed-blades icon), a third value (a star icon), and then the small icons after it. The blue value in the top-left corner is transcribed separately. The stat block on each card is transcribed below as printed.
The fighter cards print no ability text. Japanese and Chinese sub-titles on the cards are omitted.
Top row (grey border)
| Card | Subtitle names | Leader | Blue value (top left) | Save (green shield) | Wounds (red) | Grit (orange) | Stat line (hex / blades / star) | Icons after stat line |

Bottom row (gold border)
| Card | Subtitle names | Leader | Blue value (top left) | Save (green shield) | Wounds (red) | Grit (orange) | Stat line (hex / blades / star) | Icons after stat line |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Magore | None | Yes (crown icon) | 4 | 1 | 4 | 3 | 1 / 2 / 3 | One icon |

Notes
- The "Save" column is the green shield icon on each card, transcribed as the printed value.
- The PDF does not print ability text for the fighter cards. The warband's rules text is the Corrupters or Slayers warscroll above. This PDF has no legend for the small icons after each stat line or for the blue value, so they are not named here and the file does not guess at them.
- Magore is the warband's leader (crown icon). His gold card differs from his grey card in the blue value (3 vs 4) and the third stat-line value (2 vs 3). Save and Grit are the same on both.
- Riptooth differs between sides: the blue value rises from 4 to 5 and the Save from 1 to 2 on the gold card. Its stat line is the same on both sides.
