Tarantula Missile Battery Kit
Each Tarantula Missile Battery box gives you two platforms that can be built with either Hyperios missile launchers or Orias frag missiles. Hyperios launchers bring serious anti-air to the table, perfect for dealing with pesky fliers when your Legion’s got more boots than wings.
Orias missiles, on the other hand, focus on wide-area infantry suppression—ideal for making light infantry regret their morning march. Whether you’re gunning for speeders or footsloggers, you’ve got the tools for the job.
Angron Transfigured & Lotara
The World Eaters are getting some serious reinforcements for the Horus Heresy, and it’s safe to say these two characters are at the heart of their brutal legacy. Angron, now a fully warped instrument of the Blood God, and Lotara Sarrin, the iron-willed captain of The Conqueror, are stepping onto the battlefield in stunning new Forge World miniatures. Fire the Ursus Claws!
The Following Products Have a Release Date of April 26, 2025
Aster Crohne
Aster Crohne has fought for the Blood Angels since before the coming of Sanguinius, rising from the violent warrior culture of Saiph. His survival instincts and unyielding nature made him an ideal Judiciar, ensuring discipline among the IX Legion’s warriors, even as the horrors of the Great Crusade tested their will.
Kaedes Nex
The Horus Heresy is full of legendary warriors, but few are as infamous as Kaedes Nex, the Moritat-Prime of the Raven Guard. This grim figure is returning to the battlefield with a new Forge World resin miniature, bringing his lethal skills and dual Fulcrum hand cannons to life for Warhammer 30K players.
The Following Products Have a Release Date of April 12, 2025
Ursarax Cohort
The Mechanicum never stops finding new ways to unleash devastation, and this time, they’ve cooked up something truly terrifying—the Ursarax Cohort. If you thought the Thallax were unsettling, these cybernetic wrecking balls take it a step further, swapping out long-range firepower for brutal, up-close destruction.
The New Krios Battle Tank
The Krios Battle Tank is a different breed from the more commonly seen Predator or Sicaran tanks of the Legiones Astartes. Instead of heavy armor, the Krios relies on a web of energy shielding, giving it more maneuverability without sacrificing durability. This tank is all about keeping its massive centerline-mounted lightning cannon locked onto priority targets.
Karacnos Assault Tank
If the Krios are built for mobility and precision, the Karacnos Assault Tank is all about overwhelming firepower. This machine is a variant of the Triarios Armored Conveyor, a transport known for its hermetically sealed armor that keeps its occupants protected from the horrors of war.
Instead of carrying troops, the Karacnos houses twin mortar batteries loaded with radiological warheads—ideal for wiping out organic threats ahead of the Mechanicum Heavy Support Force’s march.
The Following Horus Heresy Roadmap Products Have a Release Date of March 8th, 2025
Mechanicum Heavy Support Force Box Set
Both of these tanks join forces with another heavy hitter in the upcoming Mechanicum Heavy Support Force box. This set includes the Thanatar Calix Siege-Automata, a walking behemoth known for obliterating enemy fortifications with brutal efficiency.
Overall, this box looks to give Mechanicum players a formidable selection of units that can form the backbone of a force or supplement an existing army with additional firepower.
Arcuitor Magisterium
The Arcuitor Magisterium is sure to be an exciting addition to any Mechanicum force! Whether you’re leading a purge against the Dark Mechanicum or making sure your allies stay on track, this character adds a delightful twist to the battlefield.
With rules found in Liber Mechanicum – Forces of the Omnissiah, this Forge World resin miniature could just be your next favorite strategic asset!
Secutarii Axiarch
When Titans march into battle, they’re walking fortresses capable of obliterating anything in their path. But even these massive war machines have vulnerabilities. Infantry units with the right equipment can exploit weak points, and that’s where the Secutarii come in. This elite guard keeps the Titans safe, and at their head stands the Axiarch.
These commanders come from those who’ve already proven their worth in defending or salvaging Titans. After selection, they undergo extensive cybernetic enhancements, reshaping their bodies into something that’s as much machine as it is human. It’s all about crafting the perfect protector, and the result is both terrifying and impressive.
The Thanatar Calix Boots Up
The Thanatar Calix isn’t here to cause chaos everywhere—it’s got a more refined taste for destruction. This big boy specializes in taking out the toughest targets on the battlefield, whether it’s a lumbering war machine or a stubborn fortification.
Its weapon of choice? A beefy Sollex-pattern heavy lascannon that makes other guns in its weight class look like toys. This beast can punch clean through the armor of a super-heavy tank and knock out its targeting systems with a nasty Shock Pulse, proving that precision and power can go hand in hand.
New Traitor Herald Consul
Every hero needs their foil, and that’s exactly what the Traitor Herald Consul is—a grim reflection of the Astartes Herald Consul. But don’t mistake him for just a simple villain. This character oozes dishonor, bearing the shame of his Legion alongside the mark of the Warmaster.
That’s right—the Eye of Horus is prominently displayed on this miniature, tying him firmly to the Traitor forces that carved their bloody path across the galaxy.
Loyalist Herald Consul
Herald Consuls are way more than just fighters; they’re the go-to guys who have really earned their Primarchs’ respect. Bringing a Legion Standard into battle is not just a cool perk but also a big deal in the Horus Heresy. These banners not only get the troops fired up but also give everyone a clear focus when things get hectic, plus they represent what their Legion stands for. And hey, the Loyalist Herald Consul, made from Forge World resin, is dropping later this year!
Horus Heresy Traitor Overseer
Overseers were experienced Space Marines promoted to manage mortal auxiliaries during the Horus Heresy. Loyalist Overseers were all about inspiring their troops, leading from the front with impressive power mauls and speeches that stirred the hearts of their human allies.
Traitor Overseers, on the other hand, took a much darker approach. These guys didn’t bother with speeches—they used fear. See all the details on the new preview here!
Legion Overseers
On the Great Crusade, the Legiones Astartes marched into battle alongside legions of Solar Auxilia and Imperial militia—human troops who, while giving it their all, simply couldn’t match the Emperor’s superhuman gold standard.
The latest Forge World resin miniature version spares no effort to show this off, with ornate trim, an imposing back banner, and even a choice of laurel-crowned helmets—whether you prefer the faceplate or the flowing locks look.
Iron Hands Legion Praetor
Iron Fathers, the elite commanders of the Iron Hands, are master artisans dedicated to creating ever-more efficient and destructive tools of war. For them, function triumphs over form—a philosophy passed down from the Gorgon himself—as they fuse flesh with machinery in their relentless quest for power.
Iron Warriors Warsmiths
There are two awesome versions of this miniature. One is standing there, taking in the battlefield like he’s about to wage war on his own fortifications. The other version shows him moving forward with purpose, hammer in hand, ready to get to work.
Just a heads up, that second version will only be available at Warhammer World! These Iron Warriors Warsmiths are made from Forge World resin and will be up for grabs soon.
Caster of Runes: Legion Consul for the Space Wolves
The Caster of Runes is a distinctive Legion Consul for the Space Wolves, channeling mysterious Fenrisian rituals to harness an ethereal power he steadfastly claims isn’t drawn from the Warp but from the primal heart of Fenris itself.
Decked out in armor and wargear inscribed with intricate runes and shamanistic relics, he embodies this belief with unshakable conviction. Looks like GW avoided their most memed Warhammer product and didnt give him the Doggo helmet head.
Warhammer 40k Horus Heresy Roadmap
The Horus Heresy never fails to surprise, and this year, the Age of Darkness has been anything but quiet. Looking ahead to 2025, it seems we’ll be treated to an array of new tanks and plastic weapons options for existing walkers.
For those with a penchant for armored warfare, this is your time to shine. Plus, at Nova Open, they said Marines will get releases “for years” in both Legions Imperialis and Horus Heresy.

The Following Products Have a Release Date of April 26th, 2025
Krios Mechanicum Squadron
Fast, deadly, and loaded with exotic weaponry, the Krios is the kind of tank that makes battlefield commanders rethink their entire strategy. This squadron box comes with six tanks, and you get to pick your weapon loadout. If you like a mobile strike force that can reposition quickly and still dish out serious punishment, these are for you.
Karacnos Mechanicum Assault Tank Squadron
The Karacnos Assault Tank doesn’t mess around. Designed to soften up biological targets before the main charge, this box comes with four tanks, each equipped with radiological mortar batteries—because why fight fair? If you like the idea of indirect firepower raining down on your enemies while keeping your tanks out of harm’s way, this squadron brings serious value to the table.
Cerastus Knights Atrapos:
Graviton cannons, giant laser cutters, and a personality described as “mildly unhinged.” Four in a box, ready to throw down.
Acastus Knights Asterius:
Basically Warhound Titans with less sass. These come loaded with serious firepower and even more attitude
Knight Magaera & Styrix Kit
This plastic set lets you build four Knights, choosing between the Magaera and the Styrix. Both come armed with the Hekaton siege claw for close combat, but their ranged weapons set them apart. The Magaera wields a lightning cannon, a Mechanicum staple that cuts through armor and elite infantry. The Styrix, on the other hand, brings a volkite chieorovile, designed to vaporize flesh and burn through energy shields.
