Forge World is removing all the Xenos faction products from Warhammer 40k Aeronautica Imperialis as Legions Imperialis takes over.
This probably doesn’t come as a huge surprise, as Games Workshop hasn’t been keeping up with Aeronautica Imperialis recently. It looks like they are mainly going to roll the game into Legions Imperialis, and this may be bad news for anyone who plays the game regularly or likes the Forge World offerings.
Considering Legions will only be focused on the Horus Heresy, Xenos factions look to be on the outs for both games now, and GW is moving quickly to stop selling the miniatures.
Forge World Puts Aeronautica on Last Chance to Buy Now
Generally, miniatures last a couple of weeks when they hit this list. So, if you want any of the ships, you better go and grab them before they are gone, possibly for good.
Sometimes, they bring models back after they go on Last Chance to Buy (they generally say they are gone for “the foreseeable future”). If you want to grab any of the models on the list, you can grab them here!
Obviously, you can keep playing the game with whatever rules you have, but we wouldn’t get our hopes up for any new rules or models branded for Aeronautica anytime soon.
If you want to see all the Xenos ships leaving GW’s site, you can check that out here.
However, if you play the game, you may get more life for your models by using them with the new Epic Scale Legions Imperials.
Legions Imperialis is ‘epic scale’, the same as Adeptus Titanicus and Aeronautica Imperialis. Combine your models into a grand host, supplementing your Legiones Astartes or Solar Auxilia with the god-engines of the Mechanicum and more – all the better to lay waste to your foes.
So on the plus side, Games Workshop has made it clear that you can use the Imperial faction models in LI, and it looks like that is where these miniatures will find continued use from now on!
