The Legiones Astartes Support Box will be the second offering for Legions Imperialis, jam-packed with firepower- check it out!
If you’ve patiently waited for Epic Warhammer 40k to return, it’s being rebranded in the Horus Heresy era as Legions Imperialis. While we’ve seen plenty of the miniatures in the starter box, GW revealed the second box you’ll be able to score for the new game.
The new box comes with eight Dreadnoughts and eight heavy weapon platforms. It’s interesting to see the style of boxes GW will release after the big starter, and we expect a troop-focused box after this one. Let’s take a closer look.
Legiones Astartes Support Box Brings Epic Firepower to Legions Imperialis!
The latest on the Legiones Astartes Support Box comes from Warhammer Community.
This box is packed with heavy firepower. Leviathan Dreadnoughts are some of the toughest units to crack below Knight-scale, and are more than capable of messing up heavy tanks with their mix of weaponry. They’re joined by Deredeo Dreadnoughts, which are absolutely stacked with devastating long-range armaments.
If you need all the firepower, this is going to be a fun pickup. It’s also worth noting they said everything inside the box will be plastic. Which is good for this box but could mean lots of offerings will be resin.
The Legiones Astartes Support box also adds Rapier Batteries to this selection of Dreadnought death-dealers. These semi-automated carriages are used when Legions need to rapidly deploy ordnance that is too heavy for even Legionaries to carry unaided, trundling into terrain unfriendly to tanks.
One fun thing about Epic Scale is you get to deploy all kinds of dreadnoughts in a single army, and this box alone gets you 8!
Every model in this article is available in the Legiones Astartes Support box, which contains four Leviathan Dreadnoughts, four Deredeo Dreadnoughts, four Rapier batteries – and their miniscule crew – alongside four Tarantula Batteries, all in plastic.
The box has plenty of weapon platforms to blast through the endless legions of tanks and titans.
