Here come the latest releases for the dreaded Gloomspite Gitz and new expansions for your Warhammer 40k table this week from Games Workshop.
Let’s take a look at the latest Squig riding, mad-cap eating craziness to escape Nottingham as we take a look at week two of the Gloomspite Gitz & the new 40k expansion Urban Conquest, and terrain set that just hit pre-order status!
Warhammer 40,000: Urban Conquest: $100
In a galaxy in which every planet is a bitterly contested war zone, cities make for the bloodiest of battlefields. Armies manoeuvre amidst the blasted ruins in claustrophobic and lethal environments. Death lurks in every window and waits around every corner.
Urban Conquest gives you everything you need to play thrilling campaigns of city-wide combat. Build your own metropolitan warscape with the cards provided, then participate in intense linked campaigns where you’ll battle to hold key strategic locations, each providing unique benefits to your forces. As an expansion for the game, a copy of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook will be required to use Urban Conquest.
Inside the box, you’ll find:
– The Urban Conquest rulebook – your complete guide to running campaigns and recreating the urban battlescapes of the 41st millennium with a host of new rules.
– The Streets of Death cityscape map – a modular campaign map where you construct your own city using location cards.
– Various cards to keep track of locations, strategic resources, random events and more.
– A set of plastic ruins and rubble, plus Cities of Death objectives for adding thematic flavour to your Urban Conquest campaigns.
This is warfare in the 41st Millennium at its most brutal. This is Urban Conquest.

This set lets you build an entire Gobbapalooza – a coven of grots who offer no end of cunning tactical tricks for your army. Taken as a single set but deployed as separate units, each has unique and powerful abilities. In this set you will find five heroes:
– The Scaremonger capers and hoots from behind his terrifying Glareface mask.
– The Spiker scuttles into battle with a basket of clinking poison-bottles lashed to his back.
– Spigots dripping, the Brewgit capers into battle with weird fungus potions bubbling in his loonshine still.
– The Boggleye stares deep into the souls of all those around them, chanting hypnotic mantras and revolving their pupils in an unlikely and hypnotic fashion.
– The Shroomancer experiences such vivid fungus-brew hallucinations that his magics spill out to animate the fungi around him and bring his visions to life.
These five grot Heroes are taken together, but function independently on the battlefield. They can also form the Gobbapalooza warscroll battalion, boosting their magic and unique abilities.
All 5 of the plastic models in this set are a treat for painters, each festooned with characterful detail and collectively making for a fantastic vignette that’ll be incredibly rewarding to work on. For builders, the kit features a wide variety of accessories for decorating your bases, including various fungi and even an animated rock!
