How? 

Maybe it only works in my own case. I have only one person I play Shadespire with and we share a base set.

Say I know my opponent likes to charge his Orruks through a danger hex. If I'm the first to choose a board, I can choose the one with the blue stars and keep the danger hexes to my back, lessening the chance of a charge through such a hex.

On the bright side, having only one board with dangers on them gives players a chance to deny their opponent the choice of such a board.

The Shattered City board pack contains a single double-sided tile that opens up all sorts of new strategies, featuring new starting hexes, blocked tiles and, for the first time, lethal hexes. These hexes deal a single point of damage to any fighter passing through them, whether with a move action or by being driven back, and are incredibly rewarding in the hands of the cunning (or brutal) player. With Ironjawz, you could direct your Charge through one of these hexes to Inspire your fighters, while The Farstriders could try and lure their enemies into a deadly trap before thrusting them back into lethal hexes. We’ll be previewing just what these tiles mean for your games next week in more detail.

In the right board you can see some hexagons with a white border. I would guess these are the bottomless pits, while the hexagons with the red borders may deal damage to any fighter entering/finishing an activation there?

At first I thought the same about the white-bordered hexes. But if you look closely the artwork behind the upper white hex shows a tipped-over cauldron from which the flames of the red hex flow.

Then again, the bottom white hex could be a pit. And the text mentions only "board", not "boards". So I'm hoping for two reversible boards, but I'm expecting a single board.

I'm actually most excited about the generic card sleeves because I can't be bothered to look for decent ones from other brands.

Looking forward to those boards!

The text mentions "bottomless pits" and "hidden blades". In the images I can see red hexagons around flames and blueish stars. Hopefully that means that the aforementioned dangers are on the backside of the boards displayed.
