Saturday Pre-orders – Snag a Massive Haul of Army Boxes and Festive Treats

The long, dark nights are drawing in, and the days are getting chillier, which can mean only one thing – it’s pre-order time for ten totally stacked Warhammer army boxes! There are also lots of Christmas-themed goodies to cover, so let’s crack on without delay.

Da Red Gobbo’s Surprise

GWPreOrders Nov11 Xmas 01 RedGobbo

Everyone’s favourite festive japester is back, and he’s carrying a bag packed with gifts galore for good boys and girls. Da Red Gobbo’s Surprise is this year’s Christmas commemorative miniature… and he’s arriving with a bang! Rules for this crafty blighter are available for Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar and will be available on the App before he lands in stores.*

Da Red Gobbo Poster

GWPreOrders Nov11 Xmas 13 FilmPoster

All is not entirely well this Christmas, as some dark conspiracy appears to be afoot. Thankfully Da Red Gobbo has pulled on his best gumshoes and is on the hunt for answers. You can help him out by joining in with our Christmas competition, and get your very own Dark Squigmas poster from the Warhammer Merch store right here.

Exalted of the Red Angel

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 01 WorldEaters

The Exalted of the Red Angel boxed set collects together a coterie of crimson-clad slaughterers, all eager to claim skulls for Khorne. Six daemonically empowered Eightbound (which can be alternatively built as Exalted Eightbound) and a squad of 10 Berzerkers with an assortment of razor-toothed chainblades follow in the bloody wake carved by Angron, the Daemon Primarch of the World Eaters.*

Onslaught Swarm

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 02 Tyranids

Always adapting, the Hive Mind has created the perfect box for fans of the Tyranids both old and new – the Onslaught Swarm. It contains two mighty synapse creatures – a Norn Emissary (which can also be built as a Norn Assimilator) and a Winged Hive Tyrant (which can also be built without wings, or as a Swarmlord). Before them spreads a swarming, seething carpet of carapace and claws comprising 20 Hormagaunts and 10 Genestealers*.

Spearhead Force

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 03 SM

Few forces in the 41st Millennium have mastered as many combat doctrines as the Space Marines. The Spearhead Force exemplifies their ability to strike furiously and without warning, containing 15 Jump Pack Intercessors and a Captain with Jump Pack, who are supported by three lightning-fast Outriders and an Invader ATV.*

Beast Snagga Stampede

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 04 Orks

Brutish and savage, the Orks are an unstoppable force rampaging across the galaxy in search of the greatest fights on offer. Mozrog Skragbad (who can also be built as a Beastboss on Squigosaur) leads the Beast Snagga Stampede, which contains three Squighog Boyz with a Bomb Squig, a Nob on Smasha Squig, a Painboss, 10 surly Beast Snagga Boyz, and a ramshackle Kill Rig (which can also be built as a Hunta Rig), all on the hunt for bigger and better opponents to topple in combat.*

Defenders of the Ancestors

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 05 LoV

Dedicated to ensuring the survival of their ancient, all-knowing Ancestor Cores, the Leagues of Votann are well-versed in mounting unbreakable defences. The Defenders of the Ancestors are commanded by a living ancestor, otherwise known as a Grimnyr, who is accompanied by an Einhyr Champion, a detachment of 10 Einhyr Hearthguard provide an indomitable core of elite warriors, while a speedy Sagitaur ATV provides fire support, and a Hekaton Land Fortress outfitted with high-yield weapons can rapidly transport them to any crisis point on the battlefield.*

Cadian Defence Force

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 06 AM

The planet may have broken, but the Astra Militarum hasn’t. The Cadian Defence Force represents the best that humanity has to offer – a Cadian Command Squad drills orders into two squads of 10 Cadian Shock Troopers (which can also be fielded as one mighty 20-strong squad) who stand against a galaxy of horrors. They are flanked by two Rogal Dorn Battle Tanks – tracked behemoths that shrug off incoming fire whilst unleashing withering salvos of their own.*

Vengorian Court

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 07 Soulblight

Transformed from noble undead patricians to blood-mad beasts through an influx of death magic, Vengorian Lords are still terrifyingly lucid and capable of commanding powerful forces on the battlefield. The Vengorian Court is led by one of these venerable lords (who can also be built as the legendary Lauka Vai), with five subordinate Blood Knights, 10 Dire Wolves, and 20 Deathrattle Skeletons in thrall to their monstrous majesty.*

Warhorde of Eternus

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 08 S2D

The Warhorde of Eternus is a band of elite warriors clad in blackened armour that fight to overthrow Archaon and conquer the Mortal Realms for Be’lakor, the Dark Master. 10 implacable Chaos Warriors, five Chaos Knights, three Ogroid Theridons, and five Chaos Chosen swollen with blessings from the Ruinous Powers wage war under the banner of Eternus, Blade of the First Prince (who can also be built as a Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount).*

Primordial Starhost

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 09 Seraphon

The Old Ones' Great Plan is a complex and many-faceted struggle for cosmic balance, enforced ruthlessly by the cold-blooded Seraphon. A sagacious Slann Starmaster leads a force of scaly soldiers in the Primordial Starhost, which is composed of three Aggradon Lancers, three brutish Kroxigor (who can also be built as Kroxigor Warspawned), 10 Saurus Warriors, three Terrawings, and 10 supremely sneaky Hunters of Huanchi with a variety of weapons.*

Praetorian Spearhead

GWPreOrders Nov11 Battleforce 10 OBR

In his desire to turn everything into a still necrotopia, Nagash has sent forth his army of undead constructs to claim a tithe of bones. Arch-Kavalos Zandtos (who can also be built as a Liege-Kavalos) rides ahead of the Praetorian Spearhead with five Kavalos Deathriders. Four Morghast Archai (which can be built as Morghast Harbingers) surge alongside them to slay elite foes, while an immovable block of 20 Mortek Guard is rebuilt with sorcery when they fall by a Gothizzar Harvester.*
