GW revealed their new Warhammer pre-order releases for Age of Sigmar Daughters of Khaine and Sylvaneth, products featuring spearheads battletomes, battlegroups, and characters.
Games Workshop revealed its latest pre-orders this week for Warhammer Age of Sigmar, featuring the new Daughters of Khaine and Sylvaneth release, along with a selection of Black Library books!
Here’s the full lineup, along with our thoughts on all the new products that are hitting pre-order this week!
New Warhammer Age of Sigmar Pre-Order Releases
These products will be available for pre-order on Saturday, March 28th, around 1 p.m. EST in the States, with a shelf release date of Saturday, April 11th, 2026.
If you’re still waiting on something else to hit pre-order, though, be sure to check out the latest new release lineup in our updated Warhammer Roadmap for 2026.
Daughters of Khaine Battletome Pre-Order
The new Daughters of Khaine Battletome is the core release for anyone running Morathi’s murder club. It packs in updated lore, artwork, miniature galleries, warscrolls, and new rules support for both matched play and narrative campaigns.
The Gamer’s Edition trims the book to a more portable format and includes 44 reference cards. That makes life easier on the table, especially if you are tired of hauling a full-size book, extra notes, and a stack of sticky tabs to every game.
Blood Hags
The new Blood Hags are a new major visual and gameplay look for the faction. These are elite warrior-aelves guarding shrines and sacred relics, armed with two-pronged polearms and dressed like they know exactly how dramatic they are. The kit builds 10 multipart plastic miniatures, with an option for a standard bearer.
Shrine of Dark Tribute
The Shrine of Dark Tribute is the new faction terrain for Daughters of Khaine armies, and it can be built in different thematic styles depending on whether your loyalty leans toward Morathi-Khaine or Morai-Heg.
Faction terrain can be hit or miss, but this one sounds like it is built to reinforce the overall ritual identity of the army, not just fill space in a release wave.
Melusai Ironscale
The Melusai Ironscale is returning as a standalone model available for the first time to new players. It was previously locked inside the Spearhead box, but is now easier to grab for collectors and players who want the model without buying a larger bundle.
That sort of separate release usually gets a nod from hobbyists, because nobody likes buying an entire box just for one model.
The Crimson Lash Regiment of Renown
The new Crimson Lash box brings a High Gladiatrix and 10 Sisters of Slaughter together in a themed boxed set. It can slot into most Grand Alliance Order armies as a Regiment of Renown, or be used directly inside a Daughters of Khaine force.
That flexibility is a nice positive. Boxes with crossover use tend to be better value as they can make guest appearances in your other games.
Khainite Shadow Coven Spearhead
The new Khainite Shadow Coven Spearhead centers around a Slaughter Queen on Cauldron of Blood, backed by a Hag Queen, a Bloodwrack Medusa, nine Khainite Shadowstalkers, and 10 Sisters of Slaughter.
For Spearhead players, that is a strong mix of visual spectacle and fast, aggressive play. But for hobbyists, it is one of those boxes that screams “weekend project”.
Scáthborn Coven Battleforce
The Scáthborn Coven battleforce is the higher price point option, led by Morathi-Khaine and the Shadow Queen, with Khinerai Heartrenders and Blood Sisters in support. If you want the army’s monster-heavy, high-drama side, this is the box.
It is also a limited-availability battleforce, so anyone eyeing it will want to move fast once pre-orders hit.
Sylvaneth Battletome
The new Sylvaneth Battletome brings updated lore, revised rules, warscrolls for 25 units, Path to Glory support, Anvil of Apotheosis updates, and a new prayer lore tied to the Grove Guardian.
As with the Daughters release, the Sylvaneth Gamer’s Edition condenses the battletome into a more portable format and includes 48 quick reference cards covering warscrolls, Spearhead rules, faction rules, and Armies of Renown.
Grove Guardian
The Grove Guardian sounds like a major support piece for the army. It ties directly into the soulpod groves, spirit rebirth, healing, and prayer mechanics. In lore terms, it is a matronly forest spirit. In gameplay terms, it looks like the sort of piece that quietly wins games while your opponent is busy worrying about the larger murder trees.
Branchwych
The Branchwych getting a standalone kit is another great update for new players. It was previously bundled into Spearhead: Sylvaneth, and now players can pick it up on its own. That opens the door for building a Sylvaneth army without forcing duplicate box buys.
The Twisted Branch Regiment of Renown
The Twisted Branch combines a Branchwych with the Twistweald warband, giving Order armies another Regiment of Renown option with a grim little story behind it for the mutated Sylvaneth from the Gnarlwood. They are trying to cure themselves while taking their anger out on the enemy, is exactly the kind of warped forest nonsense Age of Sigmar does well.
Spitewing Flight Sylvaneth Spearhead
The Spitewing Flight Spearhead focuses on speed and aerial pressure. It includes an Arch-Revenant, five Gossamid Archers, three Spiterider Lancers, and three Revenant Seekers.
That makes it one of the more mobility-focused Spearheads in the game, at least on paper. It looks built for players who want movement tricks, harassment, and board control instead of slowly trundling a wall of bark across the table.
Strongroot Grove Battleforce
The Strongroot Grove battleforce swings in the opposite direction. This one is all about ancient tree muscle, with three Treelords and six Kurnoth Hunters. Each Treelord can be built in alternate forms, including Treelord Ancient and Spirit of Durthu.
From a hobby perspective, this is a beast of a box. From a gameplay perspective, it’s a strong foundation for players who want the heavier Sylvaneth units front and center.
New Black Library Pre-Order Releases
The latest Black Library pre-order titles are here; they’re hotter than a Salamander’s forge! So if you’re into far-future battles, mysterious quests, or tales of heroism, there’s probably something here for you.
Queen of the Rose Throne
Queen of the Rose Throne by Gary Kloster is heading to pre-order in paperback. The story follows Nyssa Volari, abandoned in Aqshy and forced to carve out power in a brutal landscape while necromantic corruption threatens everything she has built.
Shade of Khaine
Shade of Khaine by Evan Dicken also gets a new paperback edition, bringing Maleneth Witchblade back into the spotlight.
Final Thoughts from us on the Age of Sigmar Sylvaneth and Daughters of Khaine Pre-Orders
If this preview proved anything, it is that Age of Sigmar is giving Order players plenty to chew on this week. Daughters of Khaine pre-order feature fresh rules, sharp new kits, and a Spearhead that looks ready to spill a heroic amount of blood.
Sylvaneth pre-orders have plenty of new tricks, fresh support pieces, and enough walking timber to make any hobby desk groan. Toss in a pair of Black Library paperbacks, and this pre-order wave has something for gamers, painters, and readers.
