The second (sort of third) wave of releases for the Eldar are here. If you’ve been waiting for the new Avatar, your time has come!

9th warhammer 40k banner

The Avatar of Khaine $100

The Avatar of Khaine

The Avatar of Khaine is an absolute monster on the tabletop, going toe to flaming-hot toe with the best that the 41st Millennium has to offer. As well as being a beast in combat, it also makes your Asuryani CORE units better, allowing them to re-roll charges and ignore negative modifiers on Combat Attrition tests.

The Avatar of Khaine detailsWith the fantastic new model, you also get a few customization options like head swaps and even different weapons!

Shining Spears $60

Shining Spears

Riding into battle alongside the Avatar are the Shining Spears. They benefit from the updates to Aspect Warriors, and with their speed, you can almost guarantee they’ll be in the right place to make a charge with their laser lances’ increased strength.

As some great cavalry options with heavy-hitting attacks, these are sure to be popular going forward so be sure to grab some of the new designs if you like them!

Autarch $38

Autarch

The ideal battle leader for any Aeldari army, they balance strategic brilliance with martial skill. Their Path of Command aura lets nearby CORE units re-roll attack rolls of 1, and they allow your army to use the Command Re-roll Stratagem twice during each phase.

Previously found inside the Eldritch Omens box, you can now pick up the Autarch separately!

Rangers $60

Rangers

Rangers are a stealthy Troops choice for any Aeldari army. Armed with deadly long rifles, which allow them to ignore the Look Out, Sir rule, they can snipe away at key targets while their cloaks protect them from returning fire.

Not to mention how fantastic these new sculpts are compared to the old models, and now you can get them outside of Eldritch Omens too!

Shroud Runners $65

Shroud Runners

With a 14” movement and the FLY keyword, Shroud Runners can zip around the battlefield, swiftly grabbing objectives and outmanoeuvring enemy forces. As with their scout brethren on foot, they ignore the Look Out, Sir rule with their long rifles, making them a perfect unit for hit-and-run attacks.

As one of the brand new models added with the codex rather than an updated model, these are great new additions to the Aeldari roster.

Combat Patrol Aeldari $150

Combat Patrol Aeldari

The Aeldari Combat Patrol is ideal both to kick-start a brand new army or to add extra units to an existing one. The heart of the set is a squad of Guardians. You can build them as Guardian Defenders to hold objectives, gun down enemies with shuriken catapults, and fire from their Heavy Weapons Platform. They can alternatively be built as Storm Guardians, a more aggressive unit suited to seizing objectives from your foes.

As a newly updated faction, this might be a popular pick-up for new players! All of the models are solid and are sure to be used in any Aeldari list that you might play when just starting out.

Tempest of War Cards  $33Tempest of War Cards

Finally, this week for Warhammer 40,000 is the Tempest of War card pack. These decks let you generate missions for your matched play games quickly and, with thousands of combinations available, they’ll really test your tactical prowess. With cards for deployment, primary objectives, secondary objectives, and special mission rules, this is an easy way to create Incursion- and Strike Force-sized games.

A very interesting entry that will help you get your games kicked off easier!

Urdesh The Serpent and the Saint (PB) $16

Urdesh The Serpent and the Saint

Urdesh: The Serpent and the Saint comes to paperback for the first time next week. In the heart of the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, Space Marines from the Iron Snakes Chapter must guard a mighty weapon – the reincarnation of Saint Sabbat herself. Can Brother-Captain Priad and his warriors keep her safe?

Assassinorum: Kingmaker $27

Assassinorum Kingmaker

On the Knight world of Dominion, a Vindicare Assassin and a Callidus Assassin are tasked with eliminating an increasingly unhinged monarch and safely steering a pro-Imperial candidate to the throne. Will they succeed, or will Dominion and the entire sector be plunged into Chaos?

Even better for this release, you can pick it up in paper, digital, or audio formats!
