Are you ready for some new Warhammer 40k units? Point values have been spotted for all the new units coming inside Blackstone Fortress.
Sure we know the price, but it doesn’t stop there. We’ve got point values for 40k as well as close-up pictures of models coming inside.
Ratlings, Beastmen, Robots, Chaos of all shapes and sizes, and the one of the freshest Eldar sculpts to date. Let’s jump into the latest on the box game.
40k Point Values Revealed for New Blackstone Fortress
Janus Draik is “ringleader” of the whole operation to claim the Blackstone Fortress.
The Rogue Trader, Janus Draik, looks to be the main character out of the game. He’s been quoted from the preview earlier talking about a <Redacted>.
Maybe, more importantly, are all the hidden previews inside the teaser video itself as the rumor squig seems to be completely out of the bag at this point as to the contents of this box.
First up looks to be some squat-ty type halflings that perhaps have an affinity for long range shooting, and tinkering?
Jumping right over to Chaos, well taste the rainbow:
This guy appears to be floating away as he attempts to shoot some magic missiles at the loyalist forces. Check out the beasty renegades flanking him as well. Eat your heart out Tzaangors meat is back on the menu!
Wow, how many years have we waited for these? Plastic Renegade guardsmen. I’m torn on which I want more, Plastic Sisters or an army of these!
Someone needs to check their prescription because this is most definitely NOT Abaddon, but man if GW can make a Chaos Lord this good, think of what miniature glory awaits for Despoiler himself!
Back to the “good guys” I think it’s safe to say this Ranger model sums up all of our hopes and dreams for the all the models that need updates from the 90’s and 2000’s. Simply…. gorgeous!
That’s not all, looks like more classic reboots are coming our way along with some fresh new faces:
And what better way to make an exit that the classic hero pose lineup and product shot to close everything out.
Point Values Revealed for Blackstone Units in 40k
CMValrak on Twitter posted a pic of a points table showing the Blackstone Fortress units’ points values for 40k. We are still waiting for the data sheets to pop up from GW showing us their rules. But for now, let’s take a look at the points!
As far as using the new models in 40k goes, it looks like Chaos players are lucking out and getting the better end of the deal. They’re getting all completely new units to bring into their force.
Going off a few of these models, it looks like they won’t be half bad. Rogue Psykers are only 30 points a piece! They can probably only cast one psychic power or even just smite…but that’s not bad at all when you can bring three in a list and do 3D3 mortal wounds!
What do you think about these points values? Which model is your favorite? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
