Battletome: Blades of Khorne

GWPreorders Mar18 BoKBookSE

The Blades of Khorne are battle-hungry servants of the Blood God, dedicated to wanton slaughter and frenzied butchery in the name of their bloodthirsty patron. The new Battletome: Blades of Khorne chronicles their bloody history across the ages with extensive background lore and bestiary entries, while 41 updated warscrolls and new Path to Glory campaign rules – which bestow divine gifts on your champions in return for offerings of skulls – bring them alive on the battlefield.*

Realmgore Ritualist

GWPreorders Mar18 BoKRitualist

Khorne scorns magic in all its forms, but that doesn’t mean his followers can’t produce miraculous effects through pure faith and prayer alone. The Realmgore Ritualist specialises in offering bloodthirsty benedictions to the Lord of Skulls and carving sinister runes into terrain features and objectives, urging the Bloodbound to even greater heights of violence.*

Battletome: Hedonites of Slaanesh

GWPreorders Mar18 HoSBookSE

Though their god is absent from its palace of pleasures, the Hedonites of Slaanesh are nonetheless active across the Mortal Realms, reaving and despoiling as their indulgent whims take them. 

Battletome: Hedonites of Slaanesh is your portal to their world of sinful revelries, detailing the Dark Prince’s followers and setting the stage for their conquest with 36 updated warscrolls and Pitched Battle profiles. A suite of Path to Glory campaign rules offers cruel temptation to their enemies, reaping plentiful rewards when a momentary boon proves too enticing to resist.**

Lord of Hubris

GWPreorders Mar18 HoSLord

All Hedonites are convinced of their own magnificence, but none exude well-earned arrogance quite like the Lord of Hubris. They stride the battlefield with the confidence of master duelists, challenging enemy heroes to single combat and letting foes take the first strike to prove their superiority – a momentary advantage that swiftly turns to horror once these supreme warriors deign to strike back.*

Wondering how to give your Lord of Hubris a suitably supercilious paint job? Let the Warhammer Paint team show you how with just 10 pots of paint.

Start with a base of Wraithbone Spray, then paint the skin with Knight-Questor Flesh and the cloth and sash with Sigvald Burgundy Contrast paint. Incubi Darkness, Skullcrusher Brass, and Iron Hands Steel are perfect for picking out the shield, sword, and other accessories, while Black Legion gives the black cloth a deep, rich tone. Finally, shade the flesh with Targor Rageshade, the gold with thinned Druchii Violet, and the stone base with Basilicanum Grey, before highlighting both silver and gold metals with Stormhost Silver.

Vanguard: Hedonites of Slaanesh
