New AoS & 40k Terrain Bases SPOTTED

horizontial of marine and chaos

New Bases are on the way for both 40k and Age of Sigmar to make your special character models tower over your rank and file ones.

Look at all the pictures going around the web this morning from the new White Dwarf. This is a compilation of pics from B&C, Imgur and more.

New Bases, AHOY!

And the super hero close-ups:

And the AoS side of things:

Looks like a great way to decorate your special characters for sure. I’m guessing this will be a two sprue kit in box similar to the other base offerings for both 40k and AoS.

New Wound Markers too? Hmmm a D10 you say. Interesting trend as of late with Games Workshop and D10,12’s and 16’s. Look for the Bases sets to retail for $35.

WOW this is just the tip of the Holiday release iceberg folks. Look for more awesome new releases and bundles soon enough!

Now what do you suppose is in the other 28 datasheets for this book? Did Stronghold Assault just get overwritten or are we looking at a deluge of new releases?

Also back this week for sale is the sweet boxed terrain deal for the Tau:

Now we hit the rumor trail in search of holiday sales gold!

salt-pileRemember the Salt

Checkout the latest on what we may see this holiday by Old-Four-Arms:

Confirmed in November WD ;

New scenery : Haemotrope Reactors (40k), Magewrath Throne & Balewind Vortex (AoS)

for the reactors, think Star Wars Echo base (semi-circular) but with Mechanicum gubbinz

Hero bases : 2 sets (40k – 8pcs and AoS – 11pcs)

How extensive are these hero bases? Forge World character series size?
1x 60mm (shattered Leman Russ turret)
5x 40mm (1. iron stairs, 2. rubble with barrel, 3. rubble with aquila head, 4. rubble with crate/jerrycans, 5. iron platform on pipeline)
2x 32mm (1. rubble with Ork rokkit, 2. twisted iron girders)

Given this info it seems likely that the other rumours are true as well.
Aside from the depressing lack of AOS stuff it sounds pretty good.

New terrain is always good. Several Industry Insiders have told Spikey Bits that we will be seeing the old Balewind Vortex and Magewraith Throne again very soon as well.

But what if GW has another Black Friday Sale as well?

gw black friday

For 2015 there was quite a few special Black Friday “deals” in the form of bundles both online and at local Games Workshop stores. If I was a betting man, I would expect more of the same this year for sure!

Either way we know the holidays are on Games Workshop’s radar from the earlier Q3 post, so I would expect that to just be the tip of the holiday product mix from them.

And of course all of last year’s Black Friday Deals from GW can be found below:
