The High Elves are returning to the Old World in waves – and it is now the turn of infantry and the impetuous Dragon Princes. A rogue’s gallery of characters set up camp in Necromunda, while more of the Martian war machine rolls out onto the battlefield of Legions Imperialis.
High Elf Mages
High Elves are some of the most naturally gifted wizards in the World of Legend – having been responsible for teaching the human realms their first spells. This kit builds one High Elf Mage on foot and one mounted on a barded elven steed, with head and staff choices and three scenic base options for the mage on foot.
Dragon Princes of Caledor
The princes of Caledor used to ride great hosts of dragons in days gone by, but their ancient partners have retreated into slumber. Instead, the Dragon Princes now charge forth on heavily armoured elven steeds, rushing headlong into combat with an impetuousness rarely seen among their disciplined kin. This kit builds 10 Dragon Princes of Caledor with enough command options to field two squads of five, and comes with a High Elf Realms transfer sheet containing 356 transfers.
Elven Archers
Citizen militias are no mere armed rabble – they are capable archers who master the ways of the bow before joining the front line with spear and shield. These Archers put the specialists of many other factions to shame, and they are the dependable backbone of many armies. This box contains 32 Elven Archers with enough command options to make two units of 16, plus a High Elf Realms Transfer sheet featuring 356 transfers.
Elven Spearmen
Those who prove their worth as an Archer earn the right to join the Spearmen, where they fight shoulder-to-shoulder with their comrades as deftly as any warrior seen in the Old World. This box contains 32 Elven Spearmen with enough command options to make two units of 16, plus a High Elf Realms Transfer sheet featuring 356 transfers.
Tiranoc Chariots
Chariots are used extensively across the realms of Ulthuan, with the most skilled and swift coming from the coastal province of Tiranoc. They are experts at harassing enemy flanks with a barrage of arrows before crushing unfortunate stragglers under their wheels – especially deadly towards war machine crews hoping to stay safely at the back of the battle line. This kit builds two Tiranoc Chariots or two Lion Chariots of Chrace, and the War Lions can be assembled as a separate unit if not used for the chariots. It also contains a High Elf Realms transfer sheet featuring 356 transfers.
Lothern Skycutter
The elite sailors of Lothern soar through the clouds on sleek flying boats called Skycutters, borne aloft by winds of magic and towed by a Swiftfeather Roc. They rain death from the skies with an Eagle-eye bolt thrower mounted at the fore, and sometimes even serve as mounts for particularly daring High Elf Lords. This box builds a single Lothern Skycutter which can be equipped with an Eagle-eye bolt thrower or a Sea Guard High Elf Lord, who can carry a battle standard or be assembled as a separate miniature on foot. It also comes with a High Elf Realms transfer sheet featuring 356 transfers.
Abyssal Ferryman: Hagthor Jarlun and Aster Felsturn
Abyssal Ferrymen guide adventurous gangs into the horrific underhells beneath Hive Secundus, but few have records as exemplary as Hagthor Jarlun and his partner Aster Felsturn. These miniatures are cast in Forge World resin and come with their rules in the box, which can also be found in Necromunda: The Book of Desolation.*
Silberlant Sevos the Infotek
After his attempt to merge his mind with the STC at the heart of Van Saar operations failed horribly, Silberlant Sevos was dumped in the underhive and left for dead. He miraculously survived and soon discovered he could feel the pulse of information flowing through the hive itself, a skill he put to use becoming one of the greatest information brokers the world had ever seen. Cast in Forge World resin, he comes with rules in the box which can also be found in Necromunda: The Aranthian Succession – Ruins of Jardlan.*
The Prophet of the Redemption
As the survivors of Cinderak City picked through the debris of their home, they were met with words of faith exhorted by an unseemly figure holding a spectacularly divine banner. The so-called Prophet of Redemption soon whipped his congregation into a religious fervour, and a mighty procession struck out across the ash wastes led by his stirring sermons. Cast in Forge World resin, he comes with rules in the box, which can be found in Necromunda: The Aranthian Succession – The Vaults of Temenos.*
Vandoth the Fallen
Nobody knows where the muscle-bound titan known as Vandoth the Fallen comes from, partially because few who encounter him survive the ordeal, but all agree that he is among the strongest fighters in the Underhive. He scythes down all who get in his way with bursts from an ancient boltgun, stopping only to drain the blood from fallen foes in a ritual that strikes fear into allies and enemies alike. This miniature is cast in Forge World resin and comes with rules in the box, which can also be found in Necromunda: The Book of Ruin.*
Whisper Merchant and Psychoteric Thrall
Information is as valuable as ammunition in the Underhive, and Whisper Merchants sell secrets of great value to the gangs. While their ways are subtle and reserved, Psychometric Thralls are anything but – press-ganged into acting as a psychic conduit by Psychoterica gangs, often to their own detriment. This double pack contains two miniatures cast in Forge World resin, which come with rules in the box that are also found in Necromunda: House of Shadow.*
Karacnos Assault Tank Squadron
The Karacnos is one of the most common armoured fighting vehicles in the Taghmata Omnissiah, fitted with batteries of radioactive missiles and a pair of lightning locks to engage enemies at all ranges. This box contains four Karacnos Assault Tanks for Legions Imperialis and a Mechanicum transfer sheet featuring 500 transfers.
Krios Squadron
Using a smaller, lighter chassis than the Karacnos, the Krios is a fast battle tank that surges around enemy flanks before blasting them apart with a giant lightning cannon. Its thin armour is supplemented by a full-size shield generator, while the main armament can be upgraded to a potent pulsar-fusil to tackle heavily armoured vehicles. This box makes six Krios battle tanks with lightning cannons and comes with four irradiation blasters and four pulsar-fusil upgrades, plus a Mechanicum transfer sheet featuring 500 transfers.
Acastus Knights Asterius
The massive Acastus Knight chassis is occasionally fitted with Martian technologies to create the Asterius, a variant used exclusively by households dedicated to the Mechanicum. Its main armament is a pair of devastating conversion beam cannons, which can be switched with two twin magna lascannons for more conventional armour-busting power. This box comes with two Acastus Knights Asterius, a Mechanichum Knights transfer sheet featuring 419 transfers, and an Asterius command terminal for use in games of Adeptus Titanicus.
Cerastus Knights Atrapos
When Mars calls for a lighter, swifter Knight, the Cerastus Knight Atrapos is perfect for the job – fitted with a graviton singularity cannon and an Atrapos lascutter to tackle enemy super-heavies up close. This box contains four Knights Atrapos, a Mechanicum Knights transfer sheet featuring 419 transfers, and an Atrapos command terminal for use in games of Adeptus Titanicus.
Questoris Knights Magaera and Styrix
Particularly well-regarded pilots are given the honour of using Knights Magaera and Styrix, variants of the venerable Questoris chassis that pack a wealth of powerful Martian innovations. Both mount ionic flare shields and repair autosimulacra to patch damage mid-mission, with a variety of esoteric weapons to choose from depending on the situation. This box contains four Knights which can be built as either Magaera or Styrix variants, a Mechanicum Knights transfer sheet featuring 419 transfers, as well as one Magaera command terminal and one Styrix command terminal for use in games of Adeptus Titanicus
Aster Crohne, the Shroudmaker
He’s respected for his rugged tenacity and skill in battle, yet few Blood Angels relish the chance to fight alongside Aster Crohne – he has a reputation for survival as entire companies die around him. Nevertheless, he serves loyally no matter what kind of certain-death mission he’s sent on, and cleaves through enemy forces with his gleaming Saiphan shard-axe. Cast in Forge World resin, this miniature has rules in Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – The Martian Civil War.*
Kaedes Nex, the Blood Crow
Before his life as a Space Marine, Kaedes Nex was a violent criminal sentenced to death on the prison moon of Deliverance. However, he was given a second chance by Corvus Corax, who inducted him into his legion and gave Nex an outlet for his murderous tendencies – a place in the Destroyer companies as a Moritat-Prime. There he sows terror amidst his enemies, and only deepened his hatred of traitors after going missing during the devastating Drop Site Massacre. Kaedes Nex is made from Forge World resin, and has rules in Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – The Martian Civil War.*
Lucius: The Faultless Blade
Blessed by Slaanesh with immortality, Lucius the Eternal is perhaps the best duellist in the entire galaxy. However his armies are nearly exhausted by constant war, and have turned inwards to fulfil their own selfish desires. To rebuild his strength, Lucius turns to an erstwhile brother, but betrayal from within and without threatens his ambitions.
Lucius: The Faultless Blade by Ian St Martin is now available to pre-order in audiobook format on a special one-week window.
