Here’s the latest on the new Ironjawz and Orruk Warclans releases for Age of Sigmar that are coming to pre-orders soon!
Games Workshop has revealed all the new releases hitting pre-orders this Saturday, September 16th, at 1 PM Eastern time here in the States!
New Ironjawz Orruk Warclans AoS Pre-Orders Revealed
Strap on your armour, boyz – it’s time the Cities of Sigmar found out what a real army looks like. This week we’re going Ironjawz mad, and joined by a large and very irritable Troggoth King rising from his slumber. It’s a good time to root for Grand Alliance Destruction, and a pretty miserable one for anyone in their way, so let’s see what the week has in store.
Orruk Warclans is this week’s new release pre-orders lineup from Games Workshop. Here are all the details from Warhammer Community:
Dawnbringers: Book II – Reign of the Brute
The story of the Twin-Tailed Crusade continues in Dawnbringers: Book II, as the brave soldiers of Hammerhal strike out across Aqshy and Ghyran. This time they’ll have some titanic foes to deal with, as one branch clashes head-on with Gargant King Brodd – seeking vengeance for the death of his father – while the other tangles with Trugg the Troggoth King.
This book contains a selection of awesome battleplans to reenact moments from the book, as well as the latest narrative and rules for four new Armies of Renown. It’s packed with great stuff for fans of the Mortal Realms, and will be available to pre-order on Saturday in either a regular or captivating limited edition.
The second book in the series is here for the Dawnbringers Crusade. The Orruk Warclans rules however, will be available for free via the downloadable PDF supplement.
Trugg’s Great Troggherd
Trugg’s Great Troggherd gives you all the miniatures you need to start an all-troggoth army, including the king himself and his entourage of six Rockgut Troggoths. It’s the first place you can get this new bruiser, and it’s a great accompaniment to existing Gloomspite Gitz armies too!
The new big baddie on the block, Trugg the Troggoth King, looks to come locked behind a paywall of six Rockgut Troggoths this week.
While Trugg the Troggoth King will eventually be available on his own, this looks to be the only way to get him currently. Always remember to vote with your hobby dollars if this box is a value or a pass for you.
Rabble-rowza
Speaking of the Gitz – only one truly versed in the ways of making noise could rouse the troggoth king from his hibernation, and the Rabble-rowza is just that grot. The piercing, magically enhanced voices of these chuntering champions are loud enough to disturb creatures lurking far underground, and he’s just what a horde of grots need to buck their ideas up.
Speaking of paywalls, the first character unlocked from summer 2023’s Regiment of Renowns, the Rabble Rowza is now available separately from the Braggit’s Bottle-snatchaz box four months after that set’s release.
Gloomspite Gitz Dice Set
Each pack contains 20 yellow plastic dice with the emblem of the Bad Moon embossed in black ink – just what the Loonboss ordered.
Battletome Supplement: Ironjawz
A host of new Ironjawz are coming to pre-order on Saturday. Their rules can be found inside the new Dawnbringers book, but in case you aren’t getting your hands on a copy this week, we’ve got you covered with a free PDF download of Battletome Supplement: Ironjawz. This contains all eight warscrolls, from Ardboys with their new weapon options to the brutal Tuskboss on Maw-grunta.
Perhaps best of all, there will be a free Iron Jaws Battletome Supplement PDF for all the new minis included, but we assume there will be a new battletome at some point.
Tuskboss on Maw-grunta
Lead your Ironjawz from the front atop the most ornery, short-tempered mount seen so far in the Mortal Realms. Really, this thing would give Dorghar a run for its money. The Tuskboss is a powerful fighter and capable leader for Ironjawz armies, and unlocks the ability to take more Maw-gruntas as Battleline choices.
The big pig is finally here; from the looks of it, he unlocks Maw-gruntas as battlelines. This giant boar and is sure to have devastating charges to demolish enemy lines.
Ardboy Big Boss
Not all leaders need to ride something big and flashy to get the job done. The Ardboy Big Boss is a seasoned commander who marches to war alongside his fellow orruks, getting stuck into combat with five Damage 2 attacks and a bad attitude to match his prodigious resilience.
Orruk Ardboys
Ardboys are the bread and butter of an Ironjawz Waaagh!, if the bread were metal and the butter were violence. This new kit updates the classic armoured orruks into a new age, with brand new options to equip all 10 with spears and shields. Plus, they look absolutely brilliant!
These guys are just a huge upgrade from the old Black Orcs kits from Warhammer Fantasy! There will be a few options in the kit, so hopefully, there will be plenty of extra bits.
Weirdbrute Wrekkaz & Brute Ragerz
When an orruk’s bragging gets too much and they can’t live up to the lofty expectations they’ve set, the shame sends them on a path of self-destructive redemption as a Brute Rager. Stripping off their armour and carrying massive two-handed weapons into battle, they seek to reclaim a sense of self-worth through sheer bloody minded butchery, and woe betide those who would try to stop them.
These Orruks can run and charge in the same turn and are just great at smashing through the enemy!
Sometimes, the storm of Waaagh! energy that swirls around an orruk battle can send some boyz off the deep end, and they end up in a unit of Weirdbrute Wrekkaz. The only thing they’re good for is bolting on an iron mask and swinging a heavy ball-and-chain, which is a task their fellow Ironjawz are only too happy to set them to.
This kit can also be built as the Weirdbrute Wrekkaz, and they harness all the magical energy to smash the enemy. They mention they are like Fanatics, so perfect for smashing through hordes of enemy infantry.
Zoggrok Anvilsmasha
A proper release calls for some legendary named characters, and one of the greatest ever is finally taking their first steps in the Mortal Realms. Strong, handsome, and indispensable in a forge, Klonk is a true red-blooded hero of Gorkamorka – and he even comes with an entire orruk smith as a bonus!
First up, this newly revealed kit will have two build options. The model shown is focused all on strength, and supposedly, he can wallop someone so hard he can turn off their ward saves!
Vanguard: Orruk Warclans
If you prefer your orruks of the sneaky, scheming variety, Vanguard: Orruk Warclans has just the collection of Kruleboyz for you. This set contains a Killaboss on Great Gnashtoof, a Murknob with Belcha-banna, one Beast-skewer Killbow, three Man-skewer Boltboyz, and 10 Gutrippaz – perfect for starting your own swamp-dwelling warband, or building on an existing army with a balanced selection of units.
Overall this looks to be a decent box with a wide range of minis and options if you are just starting Orruks and want some of the Kruelboyz miniatures.
With the Troggoth King emerging, riled and ready for battle, it’s clear that tumultuous times lie ahead for any who dare oppose them. So, gear up, stand tall, and embrace the latest new releases from Games Workshop.
