Saturday Pre-order – Legions Imperialis is Here

The floodgates open for Legions Imperialis this week, including a launch box packed with new miniatures for the Legiones Astartes and the Solar Auxilia, plus boxes of reinforcement, gaming accessories, and more. Unfortunately, every Legions Imperialis product is slightly delayed in Australia and New Zealand.
