Saturday Pre-orders – Space Marines, Kill Teams, and The Great Slaughter

There’s no such thing as too many Space Marines, and this week you can pre-order them for three different game systems – Warhammer 40,000, Kill Team, and Legions Imperialis. Some Aeldari Striking Scorpions have also snuck in, we’ve got the first campaign book for Legions Imperialis, and a Black Library eShort subscription also arrives on Monday. 

Everything bar the eShort subscription is on a two-week pre-order – check the webstore dates to find out when your furious warriors from the far future will arrive on your doorstep.

Space Marine Heroes of the Chapter

Preorders Feb17 40k 02 Heroes

A selection of miniatures previously found in the Leviathan box are now available as a standalone pre-order. The Heroes of the Chapter set nets you an Apothecary Biologis, Phobos Lieutenant with combi-weapon, and five Sternguard Veterans in one set.

Space Marine Ballistus Dreadnought

Preorders Feb17 40k Dread

Reinforce your Space Marines forces with some long-range punch. The Ballistus Dreadnought offers an armour-cracking Ballistus lascannon and a versatile missile launcher, giving it unparalleled dominance of the battlefield.

Space Marine Infernus Squad

Preorders Feb17 40k 03 Flamers

Tyranid swarms, phalanxes of Necron Warriors, and incoming Kroot hunting parties... It’s dire times for the Imperium, but nothing that a dose of superheated promethium flame can’t sort out. The Infernus Squad is a great way of clearing hordes, flushing targets out of cover, and instilling fear in enemies.

Space Marine Scout Squad

Preorders Feb17 KT 01 Scouts

Space Marine Scout Squads are neophytes whose duty is to infiltrate, reconnoitre, and act decisively in high-pressure combat situations on their way to becoming fully-fledged Astartes. This Kill Team box provides your scouts with a wealth of equipment, including bolters, shotguns, sniper rifles, heavy bolters, and missile launchers. This box can build a range of specialists for games of Kill Team, or a regular squad of 10 Scouts for Warhammer 40,000. 

Aeldari Blades of Khaine

Preorders Feb17 KT 02 Scorps

Striking Scorpions are one of the three Aspect Warrior shrines that can operate in a Blades of Khaine Kill Team. Stealthy close-combat warriors that pounce, stun their enemies with their mandiblasters, and secure the kill with roaring chainswords, the elite Aeldari are formidable combatants in Kill Team and games of Warhammer 40,000.

Legions Imperialis – The Great Slaughter

Preorders Feb17 LI 01 GreatSlaughter

The campaign for control of Beta-Garmon is one of the pivotal moments in the Horus Heresy saga. A gateway to Terra, control of this cluster was of paramount importance for the Warmaster. The Great Slaughter is the first campaign expansion book for Legions Imperialis, centred around this apocalyptic conflict. It features stacks of background information, new Detachments for Legiones Astartes and Solar Auxilia armies, Titandeath rules for humongous battles between entire armies of Titans and Imperial Knights, and a campaign system focused on the gruelling battle for control of Nyrcon City.

Solar Auxilia Support

Preorders Feb17 LI 02 AuxiliaSupport

The massed infantry and tank columns of the Solar Auxilia are often supported by a range of weapons platforms and auxiliary assets that help them punch far above their weight. The Solar Auxilia Support box contains 12 Auxilia Rapiers – four with quad launchers, four with laser destroy arrays, and four with mole mortars, alongside six Auxilia Tarantulas with Tarantula lascannon batteries, six Auxilia Tarantulas with Hyperios air-defence missile launchers, and four remote-controlled and highly explosive Cyclops demolition devices.

Legiones Astartes Support

Preorders Feb17 LI 03 LegionSupport

Space Marines also need diverse tactical elements on the battlefield because not every problem can be solved with a bolter and stoic indifference to death. The Legiones Astartes Support box provides diverse firepower solutions for your Legion in the shape of four Leviathan Siege Dreadnoughts, two with Cyclone Melta Lances and two with Leviathan Storm Cannons, four Deredeo Dreadnoughts, two with Anvilus Autocannons Batteries and two with Hellfire Palsama Cannonades. There are also four Legion Rapiers, two with Laser Destroyer arrays, two with Quad Launchers, and four Legion Tarantulas, two with Tarantula lascannon batteries, and two with Hyperios air-defence missile launchers. 

Malcador Infernus and Valdor Tank Destroyers

Preorders Feb17 LI 04 Malcadors

Swell the ranks of your tank companies with the Malcador Infernus and Valdor Tank Destroyers box. This set contains two Malcador Infernus that are suited for immolating infantry and gutting buildings and two Valdor Tank Destroyers, which are armed with tank-cracking neutron beam lasers. It also includes a sheet of 288 transfers.

Spartan Assault Tanks

Preorders Feb17 LI 05 Spartans

Convey your troops across the battlefield in style and safety with the Spartan Assault Tanks. Big enough to carry Terminators into the heart of battle and armed with weapons that are more than capable of taking out opposing tanks. This box contains four Spartan Assault Tanks with options for sponson-mounted quad lascannons or laser destroyers, and a transfer sheet with over 1000 designs. 

The Great Slaughter Army Cards

Preorders Feb17 LI 06 Cards

Construct armies and reference your rules quickly with The Great Slaughter Army Cards. This pack of cards contains 22 Army Cards split between the new formations and detachments that appear in The Great Slaughter campaign expansion book.
