via Games Workshop

Stardrake $140

99120218008_StormcastStardrake09

Legends are told all across the mortal realms of the Great Drake, Dracothion. An immense creature, ruler of the night sky, his form has been picked out in stars across the firmament for countless generations, inspiring awe and wonder in all who gaze at the heavens. His offspring, the Stardrakes, descended from the constellations above – huge, reptilian creatures with vast wings and serpentine necks, noble of aspect and filled with celestial magic.

Ridden into battle by the strongest and most powerful warriors of the Stormcast Eternals Extremis Chamber, these fearsome creatures of Order can tear apart even the most berserk champion of Chaos in mere seconds.

This multi-part plastic kit contains all the components necessary to build one of the two following models:

A Drakesworn Templar, the retribution of the heavens given form, armed with either a tempest axe, arc hammer, or stormlance and skybolt bow, or

A Lord-Celestant on Stardrake; leaders of the Extremis Chamber, commanding the very power of the stars themselves, they carry either a tempestos hammer or stormbound blade and sigmarite shield.

The Stardrake itself, an imposingly large model, features different shoulder armour and head options, wing positions, and ruined terrain on the supplied Citadel 170x105mm Oval base.

 

Drakesworn Temple $420

99020218024_DrakeswornTemple01

Heralded by a massive pulse of iridescent starfire, a radiant wave of cosmic force that ripples outward through the heavens, the formation of a Drakesworn Temple is a celestial event to be celebrated by those protected by the warriors of Azyr – and feared by the denizens of Chaos. Stormcast Eternals are rejuvenated by this star-hewn energy, whereas their enemies suffer terrible agonies due to its touch. The Stardrakes of a Drakesworn Temple are enough to strike fear into the cold heart of any foe – they are the very wrath of the heavens, and the realms will shake at their descent.

This bundle nets you all the models necessary to field a Drakesworn Temple, beings of incandescent purity and starfire who rage forth for the Stormcast Eternals! You’ll receive three huge, imposing Stardrakes – assemble them as Drakesworn Templars, and watch Chaos flee in terror!

 

The Horus Heresy: Eye of Terra $30

60040181203_EyeofTerra01

The galaxy burns at Horus’s command, and a billion more lives are lost with each passing moment – though it was not always so. Once, the title of Warmaster stood for honour, loyalty and a fierce pride in the strength of the Space Marine Legions. But perhaps by following the myriad lines of destiny and defiance that were already woven around the primarchs and their sons, we may yet come to understand the bitterness that can eat away at even the most steadfast of souls…

This Horus Heresy anthology contains fifteen short stories by authors such as Graham McNeill, Nick Kyme, Gav Thorpe and many more. Also, Aaron Dembski-Bowden’s acclaimed novella Aurelian revisits Lorgar’s pilgrimage within the Eye of Terror, and examines just what could convince a true servant of the Emperor to embrace the powers of Chaos once more.

 

The Realmgate Wars: The Beasts of Cartha (audio drama) $17.50

60680281009_BeastsOfCarthaAudiobook01

After being reforged, Lord-Relictor Ramus of the Hallowed Knights is sent by Sigmar to capture the betrayer, Mannfred von Carstein. The quest brings Ramus to the Carthic Oldwoods of Ghur where he comes to the aid of the Astral Templars against a massive ogor horde. Victorious, but at great cost, Ramus discovers Mannfred is finally close at hand. Only with the help of the Astral Templars will the Lord-Relictor catch his quarry, but there are deadlier things in the woods than ogors, a fact the Stormcast Eternals soon discover.

And in case you missed it from Black Library:

Lemartes: Guardian of the Lost $15.99

BLPROCESSED-Lemartes_cover

Lemartes, the Blood Angels’ Guardian of the Lost, leads the Death Company into battle on a world gripped by blood-madness that reflects his own tortured soul.

READ IT BECAUSE
Lemartes represents the dark fate of all sons of Sanguinius. Through strength of will alone, he has held back the curse in his blood, and become one of the greatest heroes of the Blood Angels’ 10,000 year history. This is the first Black Library novel ever to deal with this macabre warden of lost souls – expect sombre heroics mingled with plenty of carnage

THE STORY
Lemartes is the Guardian of the Lost, a warrior of the Blood Angels who balances on the edge of madness, ever close to the grip of the Black Rage. When he is awakened to lead the Death Company into battle on the war-wracked world of Phlegethon, Lemartes must battle his incipient madness as his forces clash with equally insane foes: the blood-mad servants of Chaos.
