Plastic Horus Heresy Boxed Game Details

– Released Around October
– Possibly Limited Run
Here’s the earlier items from the following folks:
via Warseer’s Apologist & DakkaDakka’s Whisper of Truth
Horus Heresy Starter Box
– Imperial Fists vs Iron Warriors
– Battle of Phall
– Asymetrical sides
– “Boarding style” theme – (Battle of Phall was a major fleet action in deep space)
– 44 models
3 Mk IV “boxes” (sprues already seen)
Terminators
Cataphractii
Two Characters (sprues already seen)
Okay so maybe som “Space Hulk” sort of tile system, with Battle of Phall boarding action theme?. Sounds like one side gets the 30 Mk IVs defending their ship and the other side gets the Terminator/Cataphractii boarding party (brutal)?. Skys the limit for potential fun. I’m sure the majority of folks will be getting this for the minis, and perhaps NOT the game itself?
~ Things keep moving closer and closer… I wonder if Star Wars is affecting Games Workshop’s decisions any?

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.
Scale model hobbyist in the 80s, miniature wargamer, and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
