The newest wave of Aeronautica Imperialis is hitting the shelves soon along with the Necromunda upgrades– here’s the pricing and lineup!
Get those hobby dollars ready if you want any of this stuff.
Aeronautica Imperialis Pricing & More CONFIRMED!
We saw the new starter box previewed a while ago, but it’s finally ready for pre-order. We’ll see how the release does and if the allocations hit it hard, but we’ll have to wait and see on that.
Aeronautica Imperialis: Wrath of Angels $90
This is the new Starter Set for the Aeronautica Imperialis system, containing everything you need to get those chocks away, including five Adeptus Astartes aircraft and six for the Aeldari, a 38-page rulebook, a scenario booklet, a double-sided area of engagement game mat, eight dice, 70 assorted tokens, and a transfer sheet.
It also comes with 11 new models, but you can also pick those up separately as they get their own releases next week as well!
Asuryani Nightwing Squadron $42
The main fighter deployed by the enigmatic Craftworld Aeldari, the Nightwing has a preternatural level of speed and manoeuvrability. In battle, Nightwing Squadrons weave around enemy aircraft, tearing their foe apart with bursts of fire from their shuriken cannon and bright lances.
Each of the 6 fighters you can get can be assembled with 4 different weapon options, making this a super diverse kit with plenty of gameplay options.
Asuryani Phoenix Bomber Squadron $42
The Phoenix Bomber is a heavy Aeldari strike craft carrying a ground-attack payload. Surprisingly fast and agile for a bomber, the Phoenix Bomber is capable of engaging both air and ground forces, and it’s an integral part of the Asuryani war machine.
The 3 bombers in this kit come with 3 weapon options and 2 missile arrays to make for another kit with plenty of gameplay options.
Adeptus Astartes Xiphon Interceptor Squadron $42
The Xiphon Interceptor has been used by the Astartes since the Great Crusade. A flexible fighter, the Xiphon can obliterate both air and ground targets with ease.
Opposing the Eldar this week, you also have access to new Space Marine aircraft. This box comes with 6 standard Xiphon fighters to face off against the Eldar.
Adeptus Astartes Storm Eagle Squadron $42
The Storm Eagle is a Space Marine orbital assault craft that packs a formidable weight of firepower. Rugged and durable, it fulfils any number of roles, including as a scout, a long-ranged transport, and an interceptor.
If you wanted something more elite, this box of 2 Storm Eagles might help scratch that itch with a dense firefighting machine.
Aeronautica Imperialis Asuryani and Adeptus Astartes Aircraft Cards $35 Each
With 91 cards in the Asuryani set and 86 in the Adeptus Astartes set, these are all the quick references and special rules you need for the ultimate 41st Millennium aerial dust-up. There are two Aces (star pilots with special rules) in each set – including this jolly-looking Salamander fellow who can try and repair his own plane as he’s flying it – as well as named planes, and ground defences to boot.
Adding in extra rules to wrap how you play are the perfect way to always keep the game fresh and extent its replayability.
Aeronautica Imperialis Asuryani and Adeptus Astartes Dice Sets $18 Each
Of course, you can also pick up some themed dice to match these factions.
Aeronautica Imperialis: Outer Reaches Area of Engagement $42
This double-sided gaming board continues the theme in the main set, with a lunar imperial outpost on one side and more volcanic terrain on the other. It comes in two halves for enhanced durability, with 342 playable hexes over the total area.
Getting new settings to immerse your games in is a simple way to breathe more creativity into your games, making them more exciting!
The original ground assets from the first version of Aeronautica Imperialis return. Featuring 16 ground assets and 14 plastic markers, including flak and missile batteries, bunkers, and landing zones, this set can really juice up your games – and give enemy pilots an extra headache from another angle.
If you missed it the first time around, these ground assets are a great way to make your game board more immersive. Not to mention access to more ways to play the game as well.
Van Saar Weapons & Upgrades $25
Give your Van Saar gang the gift of multi-meltas this October with a comprehensive new set containing a vast range of new weapons, ranging from shock mauls and servo claws to plasma cannons and rad guns. You’ll also get 10 new heads (two each of five sculpts), and it’s all compatible with the main Van Saar Gang box and the Archeoteks & Grav-cutters kit.
More weapon options are great for existing kits and they can help you reimagine what each of your units can accomplish. If there are old weapon options, it also just helps with availability.
The Twice Dead King: Ruin (HB) $27
The first part of a duology, The Twice-dead King: Ruin is coming in a special edition limited to 1,250 copies with a fancy faux-leather cover and antique silver detailing, as well as a standard hardback, an eBook, and an MP3 audiobook. We recently spoke to Nate about the process of writing about inscrutable ancient aliens – he has a lot of love for the Necrons.
This new book has a ton of purchase options for anyone who is interested. Either in the standard editions above or a special limited edition below.
The Twice Dead King: Ruin Limited Edition $65
This copy only has 1,250 available, so if you are interested get it fast!
Silent Hunters (PB) $16
For a thousand years, Chaplain Tangata Manu has searched for a relic lost under his watch – but at the brink of seeing the relic returned, it’s stolen from under him. By the drukhari of all people! As a Battle Brother of the Carcharodons Astra Chapter, Manu’s a fairly bloodthirsty fellow in his own right, but how will he fare in a commotion in their capital city of Commorragh? This novel by Edoardo Albert will be out in paperback.
Koyo Nurgling Plush $19.99
Introducing the most delightful of Papa Nurgle’s gifts, our pals at Koyo have really excelled themselves with this bubonicly adorable Nurgling plush. You may well wonder how something so gross can also be so cute. Quite honestly, so do we, but facts are facts. This ghastly little charmer will be on sale from next Saturday, again with no pre-order period.
Some fans may have already gotten their hands on the plushie earlier this week, but now it will be widely available. Be sure to get it while you can as it’s going to be a hit.
Are you excited about these Aeronautica, Necromunda, and Black Library releases this week? How about the plushie?
