New Fulgrim Transfigured Rules & Upcoming Supplement Revelaed

gw-previes-nova-fulgrim-Horus-heresy-primarch-warhammer-40kNew rules are here for the fantastic Fulgrim Transfigured model, along with a new Horus Heresy supplement announced by GW.

If you want to throw such a giant mini down on the table, it’s good to know what he can do before you buy and paint up such a beast! The Exemplary Battles Supplements are interesting books where you can play out some of the more unknown battles of the whole war on the tabletop.

They were pretty popular in the old edition of Horus Heresy, but this is the first book in this new edition, so it’s cool to see them bring it back.

Let’s jump into the announcement and rules.

GW Announces New HH Supplement & Drops Fulgrim Transfigured Rules!

The new Horus Heresy rules come from Warhammer Community.

We’ve been hosting Exemplary Battles of the Age of Darkness here on Warhammer Community since before the most recent edition of the game came out around two years ago. This in-depth series shines a light on some of the lesser-known conflicts fought over the course of the Horus Heresy – and the more idiosyncratic formations deployed in those battles. They contain something for everyone. New rules, new scenarios, new lore, and new troops, plus conversion tips to recreate them on the tabletop. 

It’s been such a success, in fact, that there’s a new supplement coming for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy!

Four old favourites have been revamped for the latest edition of the game, along with one totally new scenario – all bound into a new hardback book.

With five scenarios in the book, there should be plenty to sink your teeth into and get your minis on the table in a new way. The book will focus on Night Lords, Iron Warriors, Emperor’s Children, World Eaters, Ultramarines, and Salamanders, and even have a new squad for the Salamanders. And obviously, the rules for Fulgrim.

There are five Exemplary Battles on offer here, each providing a unique theatre of war – you’ll find new and updated missions for both Age of Darkness and Zone Mortalis games, as well as mini-campaigns to tie your battles together. You’ll travel to the Defence of Sotha, the Siege of Hydra Cordatus, the Battle of Armatura, and the Battle of Calth – plus the all-new Purging of the Invocastus Sector.

Within these battles you’ll also find special squads for Night Lords, Iron Warriors, World Eaters, Ultramarines, and Salamanders. These represent storied or elite formations specific to their Legion, with updated rules for the new edition – and entirely new rules for the Salamanders Sanctifier Squads. They’re accompanied by modelling, kitbashing, and painting guides to complete the look.

If you’ve been wanting to play some new official missions, this book will be the way to do it.

HH Fulgrim rules 2

As you may have guessed from the cover, this is also the first place you can find the rules for the monstrous new resin miniature of Fulgrim Transfigured, as well as special rules and rites for particularly corrupted hosts of Emperor’s Children. The fallen Phoenician is a literal daemon in combat, with a range of devastating tricks and attacks, and a suitably weighty points value of 600.

Will you choose Decapitating Slashes, to lay low entire squads of elite warriors? Or shatter war machines and monsters with Sundering Blows – powerful strikes, which are limited to three Attacks apiece by the Wrathful Blows (3) special rule?

He has a pretty decent statline with plenty of WS, Strength, and attacks. Then, his attacks with AP 2 and AP 1 should be able to cut through swathes of warriors or bring down big bad enemies!
