More new Chaos Space Marine previews are here, as a Havoc and Vigilus II have been revealed.  Check out the new unit coming to Chaos!

Warhammer Community introduced Abaddon right after the clock struck 00:00:00. We knew something big was going to happen! However, we didn’t expect the GW team to throw us a new model preview on top of everything. Check out this Chaos Marine with a brand new weapon.

As of right now, the majority of the new Shadowspear box has been revealed online.  However, we know we have a lot more in store for us beyond Shadowspear as we move forward into the new Vigilus book focused entirely on Chaos.

Abaddon Makes His Big Debut

Abaddon is back and bigger than ever! Literally, he’s huge. Check out the latest on the new Warmaster.

Vigilus Ablaze: Book II

Where the previous Imperium Nihilus book focused on the varied forces of the War of Beasts, Vigilus Ablaze is all about Chaos, bringing to life the vast and myriad forces gathered to annihilate this once-impregnable world. A wealth of rules content will expand your options for Chaos armies enormously, with Specialist Detachments, new datasheets and more. 

With the Forces of Chaos being the center of attention for the second Vigilus book, we are bound to see all sorts of thematic detachments, new stratagems, and more! Just like the first book.

On top of mentioning the new Vigilus book, Warhammer Community also previewed some kind of new Chaos Marine.

A Chaos Marine & His Assault Cannon

A Chaos Marine with a whole lot of dakka was just previewed and it’s got us scratching our heads…

Previewed alongside Abaddon and the Vigilus book, this Marine is holding a weapon that we’ve never seen before. It’s got some real similarities to the Imperium’s assault cannon, but we’re not so sure it’ll have the same stats. The more we look at the model, the more questions are raised. Are we going to be able to take multiples of him in a squad of Havocs? Can we throw him in as a heavy weapon role to a troop choice? We’ll have to wait and see.

We do know that Warhammer Community already called him a Havoc.

What’s this Havoc carrying? Looks like the Warpsmiths have been cooking up some new guns. Emperor, help us all…

But let’s take a closer look at the helmet for the model. Does that look familiar to you?

You’ll notice that the dude has some kind of tubing wrapping around the right side of his head and plugging into his armor. It looks to be a match up to the mysterious bit someone received in the mail from ordering AoS stuff.  Both of the bits have the targeting retina over the left eye and come with that tubing we were just talking about!

It’s safe to say we’ve got a treasure trove of Chaos releases in the days and weeks ahead. But for right now, you may want to start getting ready with a Shadowspear Box Set.
