New GW pre-orders just dropped, including more 40k Kill Team, The Battle of Osgiliath box, some Warhammer Underworlds, and more…
Games Workshop has revealed all the new releases going up for pre-orders this Saturday, December 10th, at 1 PM Eastern time here in the states!
The Lord of The Rings™ Battle of Osgiliath
Fight for Good or Evil with this huge new boxed set that contains 54 miniatures, including new plastic versions of Faramir, Madril, Damrod and Gothmog on foot and on a warg, plus two sets of the brand new Gondor ruins. A starter rules manual for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game is included to get you playing straight away, alongside a set of scenarios to play out the clash for Osgiliath.
This Iconic battle is a perfect starting point to get into the LoTR Table Top Game.
Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game – Rules Manual
Get the most up-to-date rule set for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game with this 224-page book, available in hardback and ePub formats. It contains the core rules, and folds in all existing FAQs and errata, bringing it totally up to date.
Of course, you need rules too, so getting the up-to-date rules is a good starting point too.
Middle-earth Dice Sets
Call on the power of your favourite faction when making those all-important dice rolls with these four themed dice sets. There are two for the good guys – Minas Tirith** and Rohan, then two for the bad guys – Mordor and Isengard.
The Ringbearers
Forge World are also re-releasing The Ringbearers, a set of five classic miniatures. There’s Frodo Baggins, Bilbo Baggins as a master burglar and as an older Hobbit, Isildur, and the rascal Gollum. They’re cast in clear resin, so you can swap them out in play to represent the One Ring’s power of invisibility.
A *hidden* benefit with these is you don’t have to paint them!
Grinkrak’s Looncourt
Grinkrak is ready to lead his Looncourt retainers into the Gnarlwood! This knightly band of brothers is motivated not by greed for shiny objects but by their king’s oratory (and a ‘healthy’ dose of consciousness-expanding mushrooms). All seven of these snivelling squires must work together to overcome the nasty foes they will face.
Warbands are always fun because each of the models are unique!
Fearsome Fortress
Breathe new life into an old Warhammer Underworlds warband with Fearsome Fortress, a new Rivals deck. Control and manipulate the board state with fiendish gambits and upgrades to achieve unique objectives, which make your toughest fighters even harder to take down. Check out a sneak peek at the cards within, which can also be used in Nemesis and Championship Formats.
Kill Team Critical Ops: Tactical Ops Mission Cards
Expand your Kill Team experience with a new deck of Tactical Ops cards that includes missions and map cards allowing you to jump straight into balanced Matched Play games with your friends. You can even spice things up with random draws and bidding structures to build your missions.
So lots of releases for everyone, along with the two sets of Battleforces that were just released for Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k as well.
