Here is the confirmed pricing and lineup of new Necromunda and Warhammer Old World Empire of Man releases, hitting pre-orders this week!
Games Workshop has revealed its latest lineup of new pre-orders this week for Warhammer The Old World, Necromunda, Age of Sigmar, and Black Library, including some sweet Empire of Man releases for their reboot into the world that was.
The Empire of Man Storms Into The New Year
Good news, Warhammer hobbyists—Games Workshop is dusting off some classics and giving you another look at some returning and revamped Empire of Man for The Old World releases, Necromunda, Age of Sigmar, and Black Library to celebrate the new year’s first pre-order releases.
They will be available for pre-order on Saturday, December 28th, around 1 p.m. EST in the States, with a shelf release date of Saturday, January 11th, 2025. If you’re still waiting on something to hit pre-order, check out the latest lineup in the Warhammer new release Roadmap for 2025.
Just a reminder that some retailers didn’t place their pre-orders (because of another mistake by the Games Workshop’s sales team) for The Old World Empire or Necroumnda releases, so expect store shelves to run dry fast. If you want to secure those hot new minis, you might have to snag them online or head straight to GW—just don’t expect any discounts.

Packed to the brim, this supplement introduces profiles for the likes of Harald Gemunsen, the Grand Master of the Knights Panther, and General Hans von Löwenhacke (try saying that name three times fast).
On top of that, it includes extra units, two notorious Armies of Infamy (featuring the Knightly Orders and the bustling City-state of Nuln), plus some shiny new magical items. Available as a softback book or a handy epub for those who prefer their lore on the go.
Warhammer Old World Empire Of Man Battalion Pre-Order: $185.00 CAD$220.00 €150 £115
Gather your troops and prepare for glory! The Empire of Man Battalion box is here to help you kit out your army with more puffed sleeves and feathered hats than a Renaissance fair on steroids. Inside, you’ll find 30 State Troops, 30 State Missile Troops, and the pièce de résistance—a mighty Steam Tank ready to roll over anything in its path.

Speaking of fancy, the Empire of Man Transfer Sheet is a decorator’s dream, featuring emblems from all corners of the Empire. We’re talking regimental insignia, Knightly Order heraldry, and even teeny-tiny prayers that you can actually read. Because nothing says commitment like micro-script details.
General of the Empire on Imperial Griffon: $80.00 CAD $95.00 €65 £50
A General on an Imperial Griffon is the definition of battlefield swagger. These ferocious flying beasts hail from the World’s Edge Mountains, where their chicks are, uh, “borrowed” by adventurers with more guts than sense. Bonus: this kit can also build a two-headed Wizard Lord on a Griffon.
War Altar of Sigmar: $80.00 CAD$95.00 €65 £50
What’s more motivating than a zealous sermon delivered from atop a giant altar pulled by barded warhorses? Probably nothing. The War Altar of Sigmar is here to fire up your troops and strike terror into the hearts of your enemies.
Commanders of the Empire: $32.00 CAD $36.00 €22.50 £18
Flex your creativity with the customizable Commanders of the Empire kit. Build two heroes—one mounted, one on foot—and deck them out with options to create Champions, Generals, or Standard-bearers. Personalization for the win.
Free Company Militia: $85.00 CAD $100.00 €67.50 £52.50
Whether you want scrappy militia, speedy Pistoliers (or Outriders, if that’s your thing), or the imposing might of Imperial Knights and Demigryph Knights, this lineup has you covered. Each kit comes with command options to keep your units battle-ready and stylish.

Teutogen Guard Warriors: $42.00 CAD $53.00 €34 £26
These fearsome warriors are the personal bodyguards of Ar-Ulric, high priest of the Cult of Ulric. Selected from the Knights of the White Wolf, they bring a level of prestige and intimidation that few can match.

Teutogen Command: $35.00 CAD $41.50 €26 £20.50
Imperial Ogres: $60.00 CAD $70.00 €47.50 £37
Need some muscle? Imperial Ogres bring it in spades. Towering over their human counterparts, they’re available in two sets of three: one armed with hand weapons, the other with great weapons. And then there’s the wildcard—an Ogre casually lugging around an entire cannon. Because why not?
Empire of Man Command Set: $53.00 CAD$66.00 (Store Special Order & Direct Order From Games Workshop)
Rounding out this release wave is the Empire of Man Command Set, a Forge World resin beauty initially released under the Warhammer Forge banner.
