As we struggle to catch a breather underneath the warpstone fog across the Mortal Realms, next week’s releases comprise a classic Chaos Made to Order for Warhammer: The Old World. Not that you’ll have much time, with Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 out tomorrow.
Warriors of Chaos Made to Order
Hear that rhythmic thudding? That’s the sound of the great hordes of Chaos descending from the north, ready to scour the land for the Dark Gods. Grim times approach, but they bring some more classic miniatures.
Four veterans of the Ruinous Powers will be available on a Made to Order basis. The Sorcerer Lord on Chaos Steed, a Chaos Daemon Prince with Sword, Daemon Prince with Axe, and a truly revolting Chaos Spawn. All of these miniatures are made from metal, and as Made to Order products they will be available from 10am local time on Saturday the 14th of September, until 8am BST on Monday the 23rd of September.
The Twice-dead King Collection
The disgraced Lord Oltyx was once heir to the throne of an entire Necron dynasty, now relegated to commanding a dwindling garrison against a neverending Ork horde. These truculent warriors are harbingers of an even greater threat, and to save his dynasty, Oltyx – with the help of his neatly demarcated personalities – must travel back to his former crownworld and face a terrible horror rooted in the origins of the Necrons themselves.
The Twice-dead King Collection collects Nate Crowley’s two novels Twice-dead King: Ruin and Twice-dead King: Reign, plus the novella Severed, and the short stories One Million Years, The Life of Jethras the Martyr, and Patience, in three volumes which each contain an author introduction. These volumes have brown ribbon bookmarks and contain full-colour art of the original covers, and they are displayed in a luxury slipcase. This collection is only available while stocks last. Twice-dead King: Ruin is signed by the author.
If you want a simple, out-of-the-box Warhammer experience, or know someone would love to be introduced to the hobby, we’ve got you covered with three brilliant introductory products. These are available from Barnes and Noble in North America, and selected retail chains in Germany – but not from Warhammer.com.
The Warhammer Age of Sigmar Beginner Set and Space Marine Adventures: Tyranid Attack! both contain push-fit miniatures which don’t require clippers or glue to assemble. They are the ideal introductory products for people who want to dip a toe into the Warhammer hobby.
The miniatures Blitz Bowl Ultimate Second Edition will need some clippers, but you’ll be rewarded with a fast-paced sports game that’s nominally about scoring touchdowns, but really more about making your opponent’s team eat dirt.
With a new edition of Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team sneaking up on us, this week’s episode of Loremasters is all about the Tempestus Aquilions, specialised Imperial operatives who perform rapid drop insertions on grav-chutes.
Over on Battle Report two legendary commanders are going up against in an Open Play battle, and we don’t mean Nick and Simon. The Leagues of Votann led by Ûthar the Destined clash with a T’au Empire force led by none other than Commander Farsight himself.
Speaking of Kill Team, next week on Warhammer Community we’ll be taking a quick look at all of the Kill Teams that you can play in the new edition, alongside a new miniature reveal for Blood Bowl…
