Once you’re done – or if you want to get right to the reveals – check out the links to our in-depth articles below. There’s plenty to get through, so let’s start with the newest arrivals to the Space Marines roster.
Warhammer 40,000 – Space Marines
They may have lost the Battle for Oghram, but the Space Marines aren’t down and out – new reinforcements are on the way, and with a brand new Codex hot on the heels of the dreaded Tyranids.
In this huge tome of rules and lore, you’ll find totally new units as well as updates to old favourites, from full multi-part kits for Terminators and Sternguard Veterans to eagerly awaited Jump Pack Intercessors and multiple new Captains. Even Scouts are getting in on the action, with their first new miniatures in quite some time – check them all out below.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar – Dawnbringers Book II: Reign of the Brute & Trugg, the Troggoth King
The Dawnbringers series continues as the Twin-tailed Crusade plunges ever further into the wilds of Aqshy and Ghyran. Both expeditions come up against gigantic opposition, but while one butts heads with King Brodd and his Sons of Behemat, the other will encounter an altogether unfamiliar beast – Trugg, the ancient Troggoth King.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar – Ironjawz
Troggs and gargants aren’t the only stampeding threat bearing down on the Twin-tailed Crusade – the Ironjawz have raised a new Waaagh! to thunder across the Mortal Realms! It’s not just giant porcine juggernauts shaking the earth, either, as all new Ardboys, berserker Brutes, and a new named Ironjawz hero are mustering to dish out a krumpin’.
Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – MKIII Iron Armour & Deredeo Dreadnought
Though the sleek MKVI (or ‘Corvus’) model of power armour was relatively widespread by the closing years of the Horus Heresy, the heavier MKIII ‘Iron’ armour was still in common use by the Legiones Astartes. A new Tactical Squad of Legionaries clad in these infamously sturdy suits is on its way. Better yet, they’ll march to war alongside the latest plastic Dreadnought – the Deredeo, a looming bipedal fire support platform.
Warcry – Hunter and Hunted
The Wildercorps of Sigmar range ahead of the Dawnbringer Crusades, and a foray into the carnivorous Gnarlwood has uncovered one of the hardest foes they’ve ever had to face – a voracious Mawpack of ogor Gorgers.
Blood Bowl – Vampire Team
Undead Blood Bowl teams have long been popular among fans, with many players puppeteered across the pitch by the necromantic skills of wealthy Vampire nobles. Now, however, the lords of the night take to the gridiron themselves, as a team packed with new Vampire players and some shockingly fancy shirts.
Warhammer Underworlds – Deathgorge
The skirmish board game action of Warhammer Underworlds leaves the Gnarlwood behind for the frozen southern continent of Bjarl, where sinister forces coalesce in the aptly named Deathgorge – starring a trio of powerful Slaaneshi daemons, who face off against the heroic spirit guardian Cephanyr, and his loyal Idoneth companions.
Warhammer: The Old World – Lady Élisse Duchaard
The heroes of Bretonnia continue to sally forth, and with them the Lady of the Lake sends one of her finest – Élisse Duchaard, a powerful damsel riding atop the most majestic unicorn you’ve ever seen.
Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Fulgrim Transfigured
Chaos is in ascendance, and one Dark Prince has secured his newest, greatest champion. Can you survive a dance with the serpentine lord of the blade?
Be sure to head over to our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages, and let us know what you’re most excited for. Has any of it eclipsed the majesty of Klonk the rockbrow squig? We think so, but that’s up to you to decide!
