3 Days of New Previews at Warhammer Fest 2023

Three days of previews for eight games headed into summer. Plus, this time, we have at least an idea of what many of these will be, thanks to so many recent reveals.

Warhammer Fest Previews

Trust us you will absolutely not want to miss this one – it’s going to be a real showstopper. 

The reveal stream will be hosted live on Twitch and Warhammer Community, and you’ll be able to watch it later if you’re still sensibly tucked up in bed or busy working when the show goes live.

Plus Games Workshop has a new selfie attraction for attendees in the form of an 11-foot-tall life-sized Terminator model!

One of the first things you’ll see when you walk into Manchester Central is this giant 11-foot-tall life-sized Terminator. Get your photos of him!

So you’ll probably see plenty of pictures with this big boy in the background over the weekend!

Age of Sigmar Gets New Dawnbringers Book Series & 2023 Roadmap

Over at WHC, they revealed the details of the next major Narrative developments and book series for Age of Sigmar!

Faced with this primal whirlwind, the Dawnbringer Crusades sally out to reconquer lands lost to Chaos, and stake their claim in Sigmar’s name. In Hammerhal, a Dawnbringer Crusade of staggering vision prepares to leave the two great gates of the Twin-Tailed City, kicking off a new campaign series for Warhammer Age of Sigmar – Dawnbringers.

Dawnbringers Book I: Harbingers kicks off the series, which will offer support for all four Grand Alliances. It introduces the colossal Twin-Tailed Crusade, a multi-pronged expedition that’s preparing to depart across Aqshy and Ghyran at once. This campaign series will follow both crusades – and their respective fates – alongside new background information and rules for your Warhammer Age of Sigmar games.

Harbingers takes its name from the four heralds of provenance who rise to prominence in the early days of the Twin-Tailed Crusade, each leading a warband of devoted followers. 

With a huge narrative expansion, this looks and sounds like it will essentially be the AoS take on the recent 40k book set Arks of Omen, which seemed to be an overall success.

In the stream, we also got word of a minimum of 12 new minis. But it will most likely be higher, with some factions possibly getting more than one each!

They also announced some free fiction and Path to Glory rules coming soon, making AoS more affordable for narrative play. Always a great move!

AoS Book Roadmap 2023

Harbingers is the first book of a series. We’ve checked with the auguries, who have provided a roadmap of what the future holds for the Age of Sigmar.

With the massive build-up of Cities of Sigmar, it will finally release in Autumn! The Dawnbringers series looks to also wrap up by the end of this year, with a book on each Grand Alliance. Plus, the Cities of Sigmar are finally getting their initial release as well.

If you’re interested, here is the official teaser below!
