Don’t miss what’s new this week from Games Workshop as we take a look at the new Imperial Knights and Beast of Chaos releases.
Exciting times for both Warhammer 40k and Age of Sigmar players as Beasts of Chaos finally get their own rules, and Knight players get their Preceptor class from June’s codex release.
Knight Preceptor Canis Rex
Canis Rex and his trusty pilot Sir Hektur will be hitting the shelves. We started seeing his previews well before the Knight codex. He’ll be getting the Mentor rule letting Armigers reroll 1’s around him. We may stop seeing Castellans and more Armigers/Canis on the table.
Battletome: Beasts of Chaos
You’ll be able to customise your army more than ever before thanks to a huge host of new rules – from unique Command Traits for the Brayherds, Warherds and Thunderscorn, to magical spells and extra abilities for dedicating your army to one of the Greatfrays. Summoning rules, meanwhile, allow you to sacrifice your troops and call anything from skirmishing Ungor to rampaging Chimeras from the warping wilds.
This is the battletome you’ve been waiting for, packed with changes great and small – from the addition of the various types of Tzaangor to the Brayherds, to a host of warscroll changes designed to make your army more fun and powerful to play. We’ll be previewing the new book in detail next week with the help of Beasts of Chaos superfan and Warhammer Community writer Rhu, so keep an eye out!
Beasts of Chaos Herdstone
The Herdstone is a must-have for all Beasts of Chaos players. This new terrain kit brings to life an iconic piece of lore and provides a range of powerful in-game benefits to your army, projecting an ever-expanding, armour-melting wave of entropy and being key to summoning new units. Best of all? It doesn’t cost a single matched play point, meaning there’s no reason not to grab one.
