The long-awaited new League of Votann Army box and more hit pre-orders this weekend.
Get those hobby dollars ready if you want any of these new releases from Games Workshop that will go up for pre-order with your favorite retailers on Saturday, September 17th, 2022, around 1 pm EST here in the states!
New Leagues of Votann Army Box & More: FIRST LOOK
This is actually cheaper than we expected, so that’s actually awesome! This makes the value really decent and will save you $134 (estimated), so not bad at all.
Plus, the Cinderak Burning book and accompanying releases are also here; let’s check them out!
Leagues of Votann Army Box
Of course, there’s a massive amount of minis here, a perfect place to start the brand new faction. Even further, based on our estimates (which you can check out here!), there is a metric truckload of value inside!
The two characters leading this army in the box into battle, Ûthar the Destined and the Einhyr Champion, are sure to be the focal point of many of the early games after this release.
It’s been a long wait, but you’ll soon be able to get your hands on the newest faction for Warhammer 40,000. The Leagues of Votann launch set includes 25 new miniatures – Ûthar the Destined (who can also be assembled as a Kâhl), an Einhyr Champion, three Hernkyn Pioneers, and 20 Hearthkyn Warriors.
As for the rest of the box’s minis, there’s no shortage of new toys! Some great-looking hover bikes and a regiment of armored squats will be yours to command on the frontlines.
This host of stunning miniatures all come with a range of customisation options, including weapons, heads, and more. You can also be one of the first people in the world to get their hands on the brand new Codex: Leagues of Votann. The one in the army set is a Collector’s Edition featuring a special cover, and is packed with background and lore on the Kin, along with rules for using the army in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
This wouldn’t be much of a new faction without a new book to help them on the tabletop, so of course, there’s this codex as well. If you just want the book, you’ll likely have to wait a few weeks or months for it to release outside of this box.
Goliath Maulers
Bring the brutal power of House Goliath out into the ash wastes with these Mauler bikes. Much like their riders, they’re unsubtle creations designed to smash apart enemy vehicles and gangers with their lethal power ram. If your enemies try to run away, the Mauler can be armed with a choice of twin-linked bolters or twin-linked grenade launchers to take them out at range. The kit comes with options for the front wheel and different heads to personalise your new biker gang.
Nothing says brutal power like these big beefy boys on these two huge bikes. If that’s your style then pick these up!
Necromunda: The Aranthian Succession – Cinderak Burning
You can find the rules for the Goliath Maulers inside the first Aranthian Succession book. As the Great Rift opens, an attempt is made on the life of Lord Helmawr, and Necromunda descends into bitter civil war when the mysterious Lady Credo launches a rebellion. Alongside in-depth background on the state of play on Necromunda, the book includes a new campaign where you can fight for the Imperial House or against it, and 12 new narrative scenarios. There are also rules for Escher Cutters, and the dramatis personae Lady Haera Helmawr, Athera, Gorshiv Hammerfist, and Vespa ‘Minx’ Merdena.
Of course, this new book is a great way to introduce some new ways to play Necromunda, along with some lore and the rules for those new Mauler bikes too!
Necromunda Dice
Get ready for your adventures out in the ash wastes with these gang-specific dice. The Ash Wastes Nomads, Ironhead Squat Prospectors, and Orlock Ash Waste dice sets each include three regular D6, three injury dice, an ammo dice, and a scatter dice.
Goliath Gang Tactics Cards
If you missed out on the first set of Goliath tactics cards that came out with their gang, you can pick them up again shortly. The set includes eight tactics just for Goliath gangs, which emphasise their savage nature, 12 cards that any Necromunda gang can use, and six blank fighter cards, which are ideal for keeping track of your leaders and champions.
This new set is great for new or continuing players, thanks to the convenience they provide, so be sure to at least consider them.
