This week is all about Squats, as the Leagues of Votann Army Box is finally announced for GW’s new pre-orders on September 17th.
Games Workshop has revealed all the new releases going up for pre-order this Saturday, September 17th, at 1 PM Eastern time here in the states.
Leagues of Votann Army Set
Of course, there’s a massive amount of minis here, a perfect place to start the brand new faction. Even further, based on our estimates (which you can check out here!), there is a metric truckload of value inside!
The two characters leading this army in the box into battle, Ûthar the Destined and the Einhyr Champion, are sure to be the focal point of many of the early games after this release.
It’s been a long wait, but you’ll soon be able to get your hands on the newest faction for Warhammer 40,000. The Leagues of Votann launch set includes 25 new miniatures – Ûthar the Destined (who can also be assembled as a Kâhl), an Einhyr Champion, three Hernkyn Pioneers, and 20 Hearthkyn Warriors.
As for the rest of the box’s minis, there’s no shortage of new toys! Some great-looking hover bikes, and a regiment of armored squats will be yours to command on the frontlines.
This host of stunning miniatures all come with a range of customisation options, including weapons, heads, and more. You can also be one of the first people in the world to get their hands on the brand new Codex: Leagues of Votann. The one in the army set is a Collector’s Edition featuring a special cover, and is packed with background and lore on the Kin, along with rules for using the army in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
This wouldn’t be much of a new faction without a new book to help them on the tabletop, so of course, there’s this codex as well. If you just want the book, you’ll likely have to wait a few weeks or months for it to release outside of this box.
You’ll also get 50 Leagues of Votann datacards to keep track of your Stratagems and psychic powers, a punchboard with 63 tokens to use as Grudge and Judgement tokens, and two transfer sheets full of insignia.
On top of the rules and models, these extra goodies will help with emersion and tracking rules during games!
This will be your first opportunity to get everything in the box but don’t worry, as the miniatures and regular versions of the codex and datacards will all be available separately soon.
Pretty standard procedure here. You’ll have to wait if you want to craft your exact list without the army box. However, the value here is undeniable. It’s at least worth considering if you’re a fan!
