ImperialAssassins (1)

Did we all jump to conclusions last week? Heresy plastics may be on hold, come see what we’ll get instead?

Various rumormongers are talking all at once.  Here’s today’s word.  It’s not Horus Heresy next week…

WD Teaser:

“Can You Save the Galaxy?”  Apparently GW meant saving the galaxy from criminals who need assassinating – not from Horus…

Atia from Bolter and Chainsword: 4-18-2015

ok guys, here’s a little teaser of next week from me:

“fear, stealth, rage, precision”

you will get more information @ monday 🙂

“We do not determine the guilty; we do not decide the punishment; we are merely the cold instruments of the Emperor’s vengeance. There is no form of death unknown to us; there is no form of terror beyond our means; there is no enemy outside our reach. We are the blade that hovers over the throat of the traitor; we are the bullet that awaits the heretic’s skull; we are the poison in the throat of the alien.”

you will get a teaser video at monday 🙂

From Hastings a while ago:

Assassins Standalone box game, on sale for a few months, then models become part of the 40k range.

4 Assassin models in the box, one for each temple.
Various non-imperial opposition models.
A board game in the general style of Space Hulk.

Full Summer Release Roundup

~Maybe it will be another White Dwarf exclusive like the 3rd Edition one above!
