Mighty Warriors is an adventure board game created by Games Workshop in 1991 and set in the Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe. The core rules allowed players to explore dungeons, which were randomly generated, and fight monsters, also randomly generated. This was a simplified version of Advanced HeroQuest.

Synopsis

Below the cities of humanity, underneath the deepest drains and sewers, mutant creatures rule a world of caverns and tunnels. The worst of these creatures are Skaven – Chaos ratmen whose secret tunnel systems connect with the cellars and drains of humanity's proud cities. No-one suspects the extent of the Skaven's crawling evil. They bring plague, fire and death to the prosperous cities of mankind.
In Mighty Warriors a band of heroes, led by a Noble Knight, Fearless Dwarf and Heroic Elf enter a castle that has been overrun by the hideous ratmen. The Heroes and Skaven must fight a battle for ultimate control of the castle.

Mighty Warriors is a game for two to four players. You can play either the forces of Chaos or a band of Heroic Adventurers as they clash in underground battles. Your task is to defeat your opponent by capturing his command room before he can capture yours!
