Loken over at Apocalypse 40k just posted up some interesting Horus Heresy news from Forge World, and had some sneak peaks of the next releases due up in that line!
If your into BIG games of 40k make sure you check out APOCALYPSE 40k, now (get it?, its a play on- oh never mind…).
Via Loken and Apocalypse 40k:
From the ever present Stickmonkey It looks like the Heresy is moving forward at full speed, and Forgeword is keen to get all the units in that book out asap, including the characters. Look for the following to be revealed before the holidays:
October – early November: Centurian Shabran Darr (World Eaters) Rampager Squads upgrade kit (World Eaters) Abaddon (Sons of Horus)
The FW guys are very keen on getting this special treatment out for all the featured legions in Betrayal. I don’t know the exact order of release for the legions, but DG are supposed to be nearing reveal after the finished Abaddon is ready.
November: Mortarion (Death Guard) Deathshroud (Death Guard) Death Guard upgrade kits for Mk.II – MK.IV (Death Guard) Death Guard upgrade kits for Cataphracti Terminators (Death Guard) Crysos Morturg (Death Guard) Durak Rask (Death Guard) Legion Vindicator
A DG contemptor body is in the works along the lines of the relic body. Pretty much just the same as the relic, but has DG iconography.
Thanks to Max from Darog’s Company for the photos!
