After their initial incursion into realspace, the sons of Fulgrim are now making their big play. The whole range is now deploying in search of transcendent sensations, decadent slaughter, and deliciously ambivalent battle.
Codex: Emperor’s Children
The sons of Fulgrim are on a debauched quest with a 112-page Codex of supernatural excess. It covers the Emperor’s Children and their fall from grace, their units, wargear and stash of illicit combat drugs. Six Detachments let you choose your playstyle, be it arrogant duellist, mechanised thrill-riders, or tense alliances of mortal and daemon, supplemented by pages of stunning miniature photography, as well as Combat Patrol and Crusade rules, and Datasheets for every unit.
Succumb to temptation with the Collector’s Edition, which has unique cover art, soft pink foil page edges and a black ribbon bookmark. This is only available while stocks last.
For those truly in thrall to Slaanesh, you can seek out an even more limited edition Codex. This package includes a copy of the Codex with unique cover art, a series of five art prints, a double-sided metal medallion fragment designed to be united with three future pieces, six double-sided metal objective markers, a pack of 36 Stratagem cards, and 26 Datasheet cards, all contained in a special two-part slipcase. This is available while stocks last.
Fulgrim, Daemon Primarch of Slaanesh
Fulgrim is the paragon of the Emperor’s Children, a twisted creature who wholly embodies the depravity and corruption that cuts through this once-noble Legion. After untold years in the Warp, he is now a serpentine monstrosity that stalks battlefields looking for enough of a challenge to entertain him if only for a moment. He is suffused with a beguiling aura, and equipped with daemonic poisons that can bring the mightiest foes to ruin. This incredible centre-piece miniature brings Fulgrim to the battlefield in all his tormented glory, and comes with a choice of four bare heads displaying different expressions, and a helmeted head.
Lucius the Eternal
Perhaps* the greatest duellest in the whole galaxy, Lucius the Eternal is as arrogant as he is cruel, seeking to humiliate the most skilled opponents in battle. Quite how he factors a semi-sentient daemonic lash into the equation is up for debate, but given he’s using the Blade of the Laer, and has the ability to take over the bodies of those who do kill him, we’re not sure he’s really interested in playing fair.
Lord Kakophanist
The Lord Kakophanist is a true connoisseur of his legion’s sonic weaponry. The Doom Siren grafted to his body is complex and powerful, its user uniquely attuned to the vibrations of battle, and he leads his Noise Marines as a conductor in an orchestra of slaughter. This miniature comes with two head options, and a choice of screamer pistol and power sword, or two screamer pistols wielded gunslinger-style.
Lord Exultant
The Lord Exultant is an exemplar of war with an ego to match, risen to command a warband. They ply the stars for the rarest and most terrible sensations, wading into the thick of combat to slaughter their foes in a lurid display of expertise. This kit comes with three right arm options: power fist, plasma pistol or rupture lash, and three left arm options: phoenix power spear, power sword or screamer pistol, plus a choice of bare head or helmet.
Flawless Blades
Driven by the pursuit of martial perfection and a desire to entertain their daemonic patrons, the Flawless Blades are elite warriors armed with keen-edged blissblades. So confident are they in their skills, they will happily wager their lives against the foe, and their patrons take great pleasure in draining them off life should they fail to fulfill their side of the bargain. This kit builds three Flawless Blades, with a choice of paired blissblades or a mix of regular and hand-and-a-half blades, as well as nine interchangeable heads. It comes with a transfer sheet featuring 150 transfers.
Noise Marines
Noise Marines sonic blasters and blastmasters to compose destructive symphonies soaring above the roaring din of battle. This kit builds six Noise Marines and is packed with options. One can be built as a Disharmonist champion armed with a screamer pistol and power sword, while two of every six can be built with blastmasters. There are an excess of heads, helmets, shoulder pads, and weapon front-pieces available, which also comes with a transfer sheet featuring 150 transfers.
Tormentors and Infractors
Tormentors are Legionaries who favour speed and aggression, pursuing the thrill of the kill beyond all sense, armed with boltguns and more specialised ranged weapons. This kit contains 10 miniatures with a selection of cosmetic options including 20 heads, 12 shoulder pads, and numerous accessories.
They can alternatively be built as Infractors, soldiers consumed by a desire to experience the sensations of battle up close, fuelled by a dizzying concoction of combat drugs. This kit also contains a transfer sheet featuring 150 transfers.
Emperor’s Children Dice and Datasheet Cards
Let this set of 26 quick reference cards keep you in the game, covering your primary Army Rule, Datasheets, and Combat Patrol. Embrace the thrill of the dice roll with a set of 16 dice in pearlised pink, with black ink and the Emperor’s Children faction icon on the six face.
Fulgrim – The Perfect Son (Special Edition)
Nothing less than perfection is acceptable for the Daemon Primarch of Slaanesh, and he expects his progeny to follow suit. His plan to conquer the Imperial World of Crucible is presented to the Emperor’s Children as a challenge, but what should be a swift and decisive victory turns into a gruelling siege where victory is far from guaranteed. With success expected by their Primarch, his would-be champions find themselves contemplating how much they must sacrifice to ensure victory, and what will remain of them if they follow this difficult path.
Fulgrim – The Perfect Son by Jude Reid will be available to pre-order in a fittingly luxuriously special edition featuring unique screenprinted art with foil details. Every copy is signed and numbered, and includes an introduction by the author. This is available while stocks last
Despite his arrogance, Fulgrim remains somewhat magnanimous, and offers up this account in your choice of hardback, ebook, or audiobook alongside the special edition release, so you may enjoy the trials and tribulations of his embattled sons at your leisure.
Ahriman, Undying
Adrift in a forgotten sub-realm of unknowable dimension and aspect, Ahriman has finally found the Key of Infinity. This should be his victory, but he is betrayed, lost, stripped of allies, and witness to the shattered remains of his grand plans. To save his future, he must fight through the shattered remnants of his past in Ahriman, Undying by John French, which will be available to pre-order in paperback next week.
