Head to the bunkers and pray nobody coughs – the Chaos Space Marines are coming, and they have not one, but two battleforces making planetfall alongside their brand new codex. There’s also a rogue’s gallery of classic T’au Empire and Ork miniatures going up on a Made to Order basis, so if you’re looking to complete your collection give them a spin.
Codex: Chaos Space Marines
It’s good to be bad, and you’ll have plenty of opportunities to do devilish things with the new Codex: Chaos Space Marines, which offers no fewer than eight different Detachments to customise your dastardly army. Before that, there’s stacks of lore, miniatures galleries, and updated Combat Patrol content to work through, followed by all of the datasheets you need to field the best (or worst, if you’re Imperial) raiding force imaginable.
This 160-page codex also contains updated Crusade campaign rules, which task your warband with earning glory and wondrous gifts from their gods – or staving off punishment for their failures.
Codex: Chaos Space Marines (Collector’s Edition)
True champions of Chaos deserve the best, and that’s what you get with the glamorous Collector’s Edition of Codex: Chaos Space Marines. This luxury tome is bound in a unique soft-touch cover with dark red foil text, red gilt page edges, and a black ribbon page marker – perfect for placing on the shelf among your profane grimoires and forbidden texts.
Battleforce: Veterans of the Long War
A new Chaos Lord miniature is on the way, and the first place you can get your hands on him is the powerful Veterans of the Long War battleforce. The Lord has loads of customisation options of his own, and comes flanked by a veteran force of five Possessed, five Chosen, 10 Chaos Terminators, and 10 Chaos Space Marines – plus five Chaos Space Marine transfer sheets comprising 364 decals each.
Battleforce: Dread Talons
But wait, a second new Chaos Lord descends, strapped into a wickedly fast jump pack. Found first in Battleforce: Dread Talons, this Lord is the perfect warrior to lead a fast and hard-hitting assault of airborne troops supported by hordes of mortal Cultists on the ground, so that's exactly what you get – one Daemon Prince, a Dark Commune of five models, eight Accursed Cultists, 10 Chaos Cultists, and a bodyguard of 10 Chaos Space Marine Raptors.
Oh, and five Chaos Space Marine transfer sheets here too!
Combat Patrol: Chaos Space Marines
Many followers of Chaos aspire to become one with the daemons who inhabit the warp, and the new Combat Patrol: Chaos Space Marines stars the heretics who make it happen. Zarakan’s Daemonkin are lead by a Master of Possession and his coterie of five Possessed, with 10 Chaos Space Marines and 10 Chaos Cultists bulking it out into a balanced and well-rounded force with a bit of everything – perfect for playing games of Combat Patrol or starting a brand new Chaos Space Marine army.*
Cultist Firebrand
Lead Cultist Mobs into battle with the pyrotechnic proclivities of a Cultist Firebrand – a damned mortal leader for the mortal servants of Chaos. They have the incredibly useful ability to let their Cultist bodyguards re-roll Leadership tests – both for Battle-shock and Dark Pacts – while the baleful flames of their firepike will roast scores of lesser creatures. This model is available separately for the first time.
Datasheet Cards: Chaos Space Marines
Time spent digging through your Codex for rules is time not spent setting Imperial lackeys on fire, so cut down on your periods of pernicious peacetime with this set of quick-reference Datasheet Cards. Each pack contains 48 datasheet cards with rules for every unit in the Codex, four Combat Patrol reference cards, and one Army Rule card so you’ll never forget what your Dark Pacts can do, all with dark red foil edges.
Chaos Space Marines Dice Set
If you’re thinking of praying to the Dark Powers for good dice rolls, we’ve got just the set for you. This Chaos Space Marines Dice Set includes 16 square-sided dice in pearlised red that feature black pips and the eight-pointed star of Chaos on the six face.
Made to Order: Tidewall Gunrig
Fire caste doctrine prefers that warriors give ground and withdraw to better firing positions rather than defend fixed points and sacrifice lives, but they maintain a fleet of mobile strongpoints and defensive lines for those times when there’s no other option but to stand and fight. Er, float and fight. The Tidewall Gunrig is one such platform, distinguished by the massive twin railgun that can keep armoured columns at bay while Fire Warriors shoot over the durable walls.
This plastic kit is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive.
Made to Order: Farsight Enclave Shoulder Pads
Mark your Fire Warriors as hailing from the Farsight Enclaves with this set of 12 resin shoulder pads featuring the renegade sept’s logo. These pads are moulded in the style of a Strike Squad, but can also fit on Breacher Teams.
This kit is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive.
Made to Order: Aun’va, Master of the Undying Spirit
As the highest-ranked Ethereal, Aun’va was the single most influential figure in the T’au Empire, and he took a personal role in its expansions – often becoming directly involved in combat himself. Unfortunately, although Aun’va was known as the Master of the Undying Spirit, his body was considerably more mortal, and he met his end at the hands of Imperial assassins during the battle for Mu’gulath Bay.
This resin kit comes with two Honour Guard and Aun’va mounted upon his command throne, and as with all Made to Order miniatures delivery may take up to 180 days. Aun’va will also receive Legends rules so he can be used in narrative games of Warhammer 40,000.
Made to Order: Aun’shi, T’au Ethereal
The Ethereal known as Aun’shi hails from the warlike sept of Vior’la, and is known amongst his peers as unusually aggressive for a member of their caste. He has mastered the use of the ceremonial honour blade, and can often be found in the thick of the fighting, duelling enemy leaders – to the constant concern of his attendant Fire Warriors.
This metal miniature is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive. Aun’shi will also receive Legends rules so he can be used in narrative games of Warhammer 40,000.
Made to Order: Commander Longstrike
Show Imperial tank aces what real power is with the pinpoint accuracy of Commander Longstrike. Aided by an advanced battlesuit that allows him to pilot a Hammerhead tank single-handed, Longstrike struck terror into Imperial forces in the Second Agrellan Campaign and duelled with the legendary Knight Commander Pask on the open plains of Mu’gulath Bay.
This resin miniature is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive. Longstrike is intended to be mounted in the cupola of a Hammerhead Gunship, and will also receive Legends rules so he can be used in narrative games of Warhammer 40,000.**
Made to Order: Kaptin Badrukk
Lead the Ork Freebootaz to victory with a pirate captain so gaudy he gives Rogue Traders a run for their money – the notorious Kaptin Badrukk. He’s the flashiest Flash Git of them all, and dazzles opponents across the galaxy with his daring tellyporta assaults right into the middle of enemy lines.
This resin miniature is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive. Kaptin Badrukk will also receive Legends rules so he can be used in narrative games of Warhammer 40,000.
Made to Order: Boss Zagstruk
The Stormboy Boss Zagstruk is oddly efficient and regimented for an Ork, though he shows no less ferocity while leading Da Vulcha Squad – his personal mob – through the air in blistering assaults. Losing his feet in a botched jump posed no problem whatsoever, as they were soon replaced by a pair of vicious close combat weapons called the Vulcha’s Klaws that only allowed Zagstruk to inflict more carnage on the way down.
This resin miniature is a Made to Order product and may take up to 180 days to arrive. Zagstruk will also receive Legends rules so he can be used in narrative games of Warhammer 40,000.
All of these products are available to pre-order now at the Warhammer webstore.
