GW Fall & Winter Overview
As the Age of Sigmar looks to be coming to a close, there is plenty of new releases to keep our hobby interest occupied. From Tau to Horus Heresy and everything in between, Games Workshop really has to do something to compete with new Star War mania!
If I was a betting man I’d say we’ll see the new Heresy box set Sept 5th just like when they dropped Dark Vengeance on us that first go around. September is normally a BIG month for GW, I wonder what they’ll be dropping to shock and awe us this go around!
