GW revealed the latest new Black Library titles, plus the return of Cursed City and some new Blood Bowl Releases this week!
Keep tabs on your favorite factions and characters from the worlds of Warhammer with the latest new release titles.
Coming in fresh from Warhammer Community, these upcoming releases will be available to pre-order this Saturday at 1 PM Eastern time here in the states.
Amazon Blood Bowl Team: Kara Temple Harpies
The Kara Temple Harpies are the new Amazon team for Blood Bowl. Bringing speed, slipperiness, and a savage nature to the astrogranite, they offer a new challenge for all players. This kit includes six Eagle Warrior Linewomen, two Jaguar Warrior Blockers, two Python Warrior Throwers, and two Piranha Warrior Blitzers. They all come with Dodge, and your Blitzers have the new Hit and Run trait, which enables them to escape retaliation after they’ve performed a Block.
New Blood Bowl teams are great! So if you like this one, don’t hesitate to hop on it.
Blood Bowl Spike! Journal Issue 15
Get the Amazon team onto the tabletop with the latest issue of Spike! It contains rules for Star Players, background on famous Amazon teams, advice on how to coach your side, and all of the usual fun in-world columns. There are even rules for running an Amazonian Temple League and using Amazon players in games of Dungeon Bowl.
Of course, to match the new team, you’ll need the rules, which you can find inside this issue of the Spike Journal.
Amazon Accessories
Get the best advantages a Blood Bowl coach can have with these accessories. Intimidate visiting teams (apart from maybe Lizardmen) with a double-sided jungle-themed pitch – including a torrential downpour side with a scaly audience – which comes with matching dugouts.
Keep track of your players’ rules during a match with the Amazon team card pack, which also contains 16 team-exclusive special play cards that can turn around a game in a flash. As for the team dice set, we can’t guarantee they’ll always roll double skulls – er, sixes – but at least you’ll be doing it with a very stylish set.
Boa Kon’ssstriktr
Forge World is getting in on the Blood Bowl fun with a range of new resin Star Players for Amazon and Lizardmen teams. The first snakeman to join the game, Boa Kon’ssstriktr is a slippery character, dodging past would-be blockers before hypnotising opposing players into handing over the ball.
This sweet new mini has a funny name, but don’t sleep on him, as he might just steal some games!
Estelle La Veneaux
A friend to all frogs, Estelle La Veneaux is also the sort of friend you want on the Blood Bowl pitch. She has enough foul hexes in store to transfix her opponents, allowing your ball carrier to stroll into the endzone to score.
To go with the new team is, of course, their own star player!
Glotl Stop
Finally, Glotl Stop will add some brute strength to your teams. What this scaled beast lacks in subtlety, it more than makes up for in pure savagery – why sneak past opposing players when you can smash (and chew) your way through?
Another reptilian joins the lineup!
Warhammer Quest: Cursed City
Cursed City is back! Can you and your friends save Ulfenkarn from the undead hordes that roam the streets? The box contains everything you need to play this tense cooperative game, including 60 plastic miniatures, cards, tokens and counters, game board tiles, and dice. There are also warscrolls, so you can use most of the miniatures in your games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar too.
Cursed City is sweet, so if you missed it, now is your chance to experience it!
Warhammer Quest: Cursed City – Nightwars
Continue your heroes’ journeys with the first expansion for Warhammer Quest: Cursed City. As three new vampire lords seek to claim dominion over the city, can you put a stake in their claims? This set includes rules for three new journey types and all the cards and tokens you’ll need on your quests. You can further expand your games by picking up the miniatures Radukar the Beast, Fell Bats, Vampire Lord, Lady Annika the Thirsting Blade, and Kritza the Rat Prince separately.
New and returning fans can also pick up this expansion to enhance your Cursed City experience!
Warcry Core Book
First available in the Heart of Ghur boxed set, the Warcry Core Book for the new edition is coming out separately. It includes the core rules for the game, loads of background on the brutal setting – the Gnarlwood – and lots of extra content for matched, narrative, and open play, including quests, campaigns, and more.
Finally available separately, now you can pick up the new rule book if you were waiting.
Cursed City
When a series of vicious murders rock the vampire-ruled city of Ulfenkarn, the city’s dread ruler takes to the streets. Can a vampire hunter, a vigilante, a wizard, and a soldier uncover the truth of what’s happening? Get ready for the game’s re-release with the tie-in novel – Cursed City is available in paperback for the first time.
Lore drops! If you enjoy or are interested in Cursed City this book is sure to be a good option.
Empire at War
Head back to the World-that-Was with this huge anthology of tales from the Empire. It contains the novels Riders of the Dead, Grimblades, and Warrior Priest, along with the short stories The Vampire Hunters, Meat Wagon, The Case of the Scarlet Cell, Rest for the Wicked, The Nagenhof Bell, Swords of the Empire, Shyi-Zar, As Dead As Flesh, Dead Man’s Hand, Sanctity, and The Miracle of Berlau. It will be available in paperback and ebook formats.
In a change of setting, the old world Warhammer Fantasy also has some iconic stories, some of which are right here in this Omnibus, so check it out if you’re interested!
Rogal Dorn: Emperor’s Crusader
The Horus Heresy Primarchs series continues with the story of one of the Emperor’s most stalwart sons, Rogal Dorn. Tasked with securing worlds far from Terra, Dorn encounters a foe the likes of which he has never encountered before – will his strategic genius be enough to conquer the darkness in the name of the Emperor? Gav Thorpe’s novel will be available in hardback, ebook, and audiobook formats.
The Primarch series are usually slam dunks, so check this out if you are a fan of the Imperial Fists or Rogal Dorn
Blood of Asaheim
The Járnhammer Pack, who would go on to star in Stormcaller and The Helwinter Gate, make their debut in Blood of Asaheim. The Space Wolves are sent to defend a shrine from attacks by the Death Guard, but will their alliance with the Sisters of Battle hold together for long enough to defeat the plague-ridden invaders? Chris Wraight’s novel comes to audiobook next week.
Audiobooks are super convenient, so don’t sleep on these new offerings.
Courage and Honour
The adventures of Uriel Ventris continue in Courage and Honour. Available as an audiobook for the first time, you can follow the Ultramarines 4th Company as they desperately try to defend Pavonis from the T’au Empire. Does the Codex Astartes contain the wisdom to defeat the rising xenos threat, or will Ventris have to go off book?
