It’s a Forge World TWO-FER this week with one stunning new kit for the Sisters of Silence, and yet another sheet of transfers for the Adeptus Astarte!

Up for pre-order now are the following new releases from Forge World:

BLOOD ANGELS LEGION TRANSFER SHEET £16

Blood Angels Transfers 01 decals

Description

Perfect for Blood Angels armies, this A4 transfer sheet is filled with the markings of the IXth Legion. Including Legion insignia, squad markings, honour symbols, banners and more, it’s made specifically for personalising the vehicles and infantry of your army.

SISTERS OF SILENCE KHARON PATTERN ACQUISITOR £85

Description

 

Built to approach its targets silently and with utmost stealth, the Kharon Pattern Acquisitor is deliberately made to be a thing of mystery and terror when its presence is unveiled. Used primarily in a paramilitary role by the Sisters of Silence, it can suppress civilian resistance with lethal effect, its hellion cannon cutting through rampaging mobs and destroying makeshift barricades. Against greater threats, various payloads of missiles can be deployed, including sophisticated antipsyker warheads.

This multi-part resin kit contains the parts needed to assemble a Kharon Pattern Acquisitor, a Dedicated Transport for a Talons of the Emperor army list. It’s an interestingly shaped craft, with an almost organic-looking hull dotted all over with the vents and exhausts needed to allow its stealthy movement on the battlefield. There are two options for the access hatch – closed, with thick armour covering it, or open, with the iris door clearly visible, ready to disgorge the warriors inside. The hull contains holes for inserting 2 8mm magnets (not included) to allow you to switch between the closed and open access hatch assemblies on the fly – of course, if you strongly prefer one, you can always glue it in place. As well as these details, the Acquisitor is armed with 2 missile launchers and 2 hellion cannon, one of each placed on either side of the hull.

This kit comes as 19 resin components, and is supplied with a 170 x 105mm oval base and a clear flying stem. Rules for the Sisters of Silence Kharon Pattern Acquisitor are available in The Horus Heresy Book Seven – Inferno.

So there you have it, one new model kit and one great sheet of transfers for your Sons of Sanguinuis. Be sure to head on over to Forge World and pick yours up today.
