Khorgos Khul & Bloodsecrator $40

KorghosKhulBloodsecrator03

Description

Khorgos Khul commands no mere army, but a legion of bloodthirsty murderers. United under his banner, the Goretide have slaughtered indiscriminately – helped in no small measure by the presence of Bloodsecrators, who drag their master’s icon to every corner of the Mortal Realms, there to rip open the fabric of reality and allow the red-hot wrath of Khorne himself to send the followers of the Blood God into apoplectic battle-rage.

KorghosKhulBloodsecrator01

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Khorgos Khul, terrifying Chaos lord of the Bloodbound and a Bloodsecrator, icon bearer and conduit of the fury of Khorne. Khorgos Khul is accompanied by his faithful yet terrifying Flesh Hound of Khorne, straining at the end of a pair of chains; he himself is an impressively detailed miniature, bedecked in brutal armour with symbols and signs of Khorne all over. He clutches an Axe of Khorne.

KorghosKhulBloodsecrator05

The Bloodsecrator model is dominated by the enormous icon he carries along with his four-bladed Ensorcelled Axe – his armour is also covered in Khornate symbols, but he appears to have more of a taste for skulls, being covered as he is in the glorious bounty of Khorne; at least 10 skulls adorn him. His exposed head contains a wealth of detail – look closely, and you’ll see that his ponytail isn’t quite what it seems… The model can be used as any warlord of Khorne – he’s the ultimate example of a bloodthirsty Khornate disciple.

The 2 miniatures are supplied as 18 components, and come with 1 Citadel 60mm Round base and a Citadel 32mm Round base.

Vandus Hammerhand $40

VandusHammerhand03

Description

Vandus Hammerhand is a sworn enemy of the Dark Gods. As Lord-Celestant of the hammers of Sigmar his warriors fight as one, energised by his purpose and might. Vandus was the first to tame a celestial Dracoth, and the first to harness the beast’s ability to breathe bolts of magical force. Respected by all, and trusted implicitly by Sigmar himself, he is haunted constantly by visions of his mortal tribe’s death – these visions spur him to astonishing acts of vengeance against Chaos in the Mortal Realms.

VandusHammerhand02

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Vandus Hammerhand, iconic Lord-Celestant and stoic leader of many Stormcast Eternals victories, mounted on a powerful Dracoth. He wields a Tempestos Hammer in one hand and clutches the reins of this Dracoth in the other, with a sculpted banner of Sigmar streaming above his magnificent headgear. His dense armour is covered in hammer and lightning symbols – the lithe, furious form of the Dracoth is likewise encased in similar plate. This model makes a great Lord-Celestant for any Stormhost!

VandusHammerhand01

Vandus Hammerhand comes as 9 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 90x52mm Oval base.

Hallowed Knights: Plague Garden (Hardback) $27

HallowedKnightsPlagueGardenRoyalFormatHB01

Description

A Warhammer Age of Sigmar novel

During the greatest battles of the War for Life, the Stormcast Eternals suffered a great tragedy: the Hallowed Knights Lord-Castellant Lorus Grymn was lost to the Realm of Chaos. Now his fellow Steel Souls venture into the domain of Nurgle himself in search of their lost comrade…

READ IT BECAUSE
It’s a return to the Mortal Realms… sort of. It’s something new for the Age of Sigmar as the Stormcast Eternals take on Chaos not just in the usual places, but right in the very heart of the Dark Gods’ own domain.

THE STORY
As the War for the Realm of Life continues, Lord-Castellant Lorrus Grymn leads the battered remnants of the Steel Souls warrior chamber against the sargasso-citadels of the Verdant Bay. The Hallowed Knights claim victory, but at a terrible cost – Grymn is lost to Realm of Chaos. Now Gardus, newly-reforged and fresh from the destruction of the Scabrous Sprawl, must lead his warriors into the foetid heart of Nurgle’s realm in search of the Lord-Castellant, where they must once more brave the horrors of the Realm of Decay…

Written by Josh Reynolds.

Description

An Astra Militarum audio drama

THE STORY
The Elysian Drop Troops are famed throughout the Astra Militarum for their rapid deployment tactics, utter fearlessness and expertise at grav-chute assaults. The 158th Elysian are once such regiment, ordered to pacify piratical warbands at large in their native system. But as the campaign commences, disaster strikes, the regiment’s inexperienced and arrogant captain the cause. Only through the ingenuity of Sergeant Zachariah is a victory salvaged, but at a terrible cost.
