Forge World just revealed a new miniature for The Hobbit and it looks amazing. Could this be setting us up for more reveals at the Horus Heresy Weekender?
Forge World was more than happy to reveal the latest miniature for The Hobbit. Let’s take a look at Khamûl the Easterling and see what they had to say about him.
Khamûl the Easterling is perhaps the most noteworthy of the Nazgul outside of the Witch King of Angmar himself. Did you know, for example, that he’s the only Ringwraith, apart from the aforementioned Witch King, named by Tolkien in the books? And did you know that, in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring™, the Ringwraith that hunts Frodo at the beginning of the story is Khamûl? Indeed, following the death of his superior, Khamûl the Easterling would go on to lead the Nazgûl at the Battle of the Black Gate.
Khamûl the Easterling’s latest miniature depicts him as he appears during The Hobbit: The Battle of The Five Armies™. In this incarnation, he’s clad in ornate armour similar to that worn by the other Easterlings and should look right at home with the rest of your Nazgûl.
Khamûl the Easterling will be available sometime next year, and it looks like he’ll be making a great addition to your army. Can we expect to see him during the Horus Heresy and Necromunda Weekender?
The Horus Heresy and Necromunda Weekender will be a two day event, February 3rd and 4th, and tickets are now available. Forge World made the announcement of the Weekender event last week.
Looking to meet the people who make the games you love? Want to be among the first to find out what’s next from Forge World? Very soon, you’ll have your chance, with the Horus Heresy and Necromunda Weekender… Tickets go on sale Friday, and are only available while stocks last – so make sure you get yours from the Warhammer World website before they run out!
The Horus Heresy Weekender events are always packed with a lot of fun and news related to the hobby, and this year Forge World is throwing Necromunda into the mix. What can we expect to see revealed next year?
No matter what, if you’re planning to attend, make sure you head over to Warhammer World and secure your ticket before they’re all gone.
