Every month you can visit your local Warhammer store to collect a miniature of the month for free, and from the 8th of June, you’ll be able to make a pact with the Chaos Gods and earn a Darkaoath Marauder.
The Darkoath Tribes are the original inhabitants of the Mortal Realms, and have long suffered under the yoke of the Ruinous Powers. They fight tooth and nail for survival in these harsh worlds, their martial skill honed by endless warring against beasts, monsters, and invading Sigmarite Crusaders alike. In desperate times, they swear oaths to aspects of the Chaos Gods, who in turn lend them unimaginable power – for a price of course.
These miniatures will be available while stocks last, and they may differ from the one pictured. Ask your local store staff how to claim one – and while you’re in, they can tell you all about the ongoing campaign to celebrate the final chapters of the Dawnbringer Crusades.
There is still time left for you and your fellow Warhammer hobbyists to fight for the fate of a new city – whether you’re ensuring its survival, or beseeching a deity for the power you need to bring ruin to its walls.
You’ll earn points towards completing an activity card through all kinds of hobby activities, from painting new units to battling your friends. You can also claim bonus points by introducing a friend to Warhammer and guiding them through their first steps, so they can aid you on your campaign too.
Score 18 points across all activities to complete your card, and you can add a point to your store’s crusade tracker for your chosen path.* And to mark you out as a true Dawnbringer, you’ll also receive an authentic Coin Malleus** of your own – regardless of whether you help construct a settlement for Sigmar’s name, or lay ruin to the land he sought to claim.
With plenty of points on offer for painting progress, you’ll want to take advantage of the Pick ‘n’ Mix paints offer – simply choose any 10 paints, and get the most expensive one free. They come in a snazzy box too, handy for keeping your colours together for your latest project.
As well as a free miniature, you’ll also have a chance to get a collectable coin. Fittingly, this month’s coin is minted in honour of the Slaves to Darkness, which count the Darkoath among their number.
Ask staff how you can get your very own Slaves to Darkness coin, which will also be in store from the 1st of June. If this is your sixth collectable coin, you’ll be able to claim a free album to store your collection in.**
This is the perfect chance to make a day of it and introduce a friend to Warhammer – and they’ll get some fun stuff too!
They can choose between an Infernus Space Marine and a Stormcast Eternals Vindictor, get a painting tutorial for their new model, as well as learn how to play their first game of Warhammer 40,000 or Warhammer Age of Sigmar.
They can also get involved with the Battle Honours programme, which rewards them for diving into a series of fun activities based around the key areas of the Warhammer hobby – Collect, Build, Paint, Play, and Read.
Finally, every store celebrates its anniversary each year with fun activities and exclusive items. There are two anniversary miniatures for 2024, which you definitely won’t want to miss out on.
Find your local store with the Store Finder below, and ask your local staff about their anniversary and how you can take part.
