Treadheads rejoice, Forge World is indeed releasing a new Super Heavy tank, and today they showed it off a little.


I think they may have forgotten that they published a whole picture of it already, as many astute eyes saw it in the Forge World Horus Heresy Book 4 that was released a few months ago.

This appears to be the Stormhammer, and it’s got a lot of guns….

Forge World has produced a huge number of tanks and armoured vehicles over the years, from the small, but perfectly formed, Cyclops Demolition Vehicle and Grot Tanks to the Super-heavy Shadowsword, Malcador and Praetor Armoured Assault Launcher. I got a glimpse of a new behemoth last week and it looks earth-shatteringly powerful! I’m reliably informed that we’ll be seeing it in all its glory at the Horus Heresy Weekender.
