New Necromunda, Horus Heresy, & Black Library Pricing CONFIRMED!
GW redid the rulebook for Necromunda and didn’t follow up with much, so it’s nice to see more significant releases on the way now!
Necromunda: The Aranthian Succession – Ruins of Jardlan $50 €40 £30
The concluding volume of the Aranthian Succession is unmissable for every Necromunda fan; it has 45 pages of incredible background lore developing the setting-changing storyline, and introducing new characters such as Asun’ghar – also known as the Lady of Ash – Orrin Grimjarl, the Last Charter Lord of Jardlan, and his brother Urson Grimjarl, the Jardlan Nomad Hunter, as well as Silberlant Sevos, the Infotek.
Then there’s part three of the Succession campaign, entitled “the Fall of Helmawr”, which follows the forces of Ozostium and the Prophet of Redemption as they hound Lady Haera and her loyal Enforcers. Gangs battle for the control of key waypoints throughout the ash wastes to ambush the fleeing Helmawr, or aid her escape. On top of that there are additional rules for Van Saar, Enforcers, and Ironhead Squat Prospectors, including new vehicles for each.
This volume will be available in hardback and as an ePub.
New supplements bring new ways to play, which is always refreshing. Plus, with new lore, there is a lot to look forward to if you are a fan.
Van Saar Ash Wastes Arachni-rig $50 €40 £30
A wasteland variant of the Van Saar Arachni-rig, the Ash Wastes Arachni-rig combines high-speed brutality with an array of deadly weapons. It is fitted with jump boosters to effortlessly traverse Necromunda’s rad-soaked plains, and packs a myriad of weapons ranging from destructive plasma guns that melt through infantry or harpoon launchers to better snag loot in the ash wastes, meaning it’s prepared for any foe.
These are really cool-looking, and with them in plastic, what’s not to love? Plus, even if you don’t play Necromunda, these could be used for all kinds of conversions. We would just recommend trying to magnetize those flight stands, as they could be a pain to store.
They have a decent number of options and should add some serious speed to your gang.
Van Saar Gang Tactics Card Pack and Van Saar Vehicle Gang Tactics Pack $20 €15 £12.50 Each
(Direct From Forge World Webstore)
This pair of card packs allows you to command your House Van Saar gangers in the heat of battle. The Gang Tactics pack is a reprint of the second Van Saar Tactics Card Pack, and includes 26 cards with additional tactics and abilities, as well as blank cards you can use to record important statistics. The Vehicle Tactics pack features 26 new cards (including blank vehicle cards) and allows your gangs to utilise various vehicles for use in the underhive and ash wastes.
Tactic cards are pretty convenient, especially when picking up on new rules to smooth out the learning curve.
Underhive Graffiti Transfer Sheet $35 €29 £22
(Direct From Games Workshop Webstore)
Add some gritty realism to your Necromunda terrain collection with this sheet of 292 waterslide transfers, including hazard stripes, graffiti icons for each of the House gangs, Enforcer tags, as well as industrial signage, sector codes, ‘motivational’ slogans, arrows, hazard warnings, voltage symbols, and a host of other decals to personalise your collection.
New transfers equal new hobby options, which is always a good thing if you’re into that and want some extra customization.
Mind-Locked Wyrd and Cephalopod Spektors $49 €39 £31
(Direct From Forge World Webstore)
Cast in Forge World resin, Mind-locked Wyrds are unsanctioned psykers who have been broken to the will of the Psi-Syndica and its shadowy allies. House Delaque are particularly favoured partners of this psychic cartel, and employ Mind-locked Wyrds alongside their engineered creations – such as the Cephalopod Spektors, cybernetic watchdogs built around fragment-brains cloned from their bonded master.
This wyrd is pretty unique, making for a great new hobby option and probably a solid model to field in Necromunda.
Van Saar Ash Wastes Upgrades: $33 €27 £21
(Direct From Forge World Webstore)
Kit your high-tech House Van Saar members with all the gear needed to slightly improve their chances in the ash wastes of Necromunda. This Forge World Resin upgrade kit contains 30 components such as backpacks, heads, and flasks to make your gangers more in-theme and appropriately dressed when fighting in the ash wastes.
Make your models more unique (and possibly more accurate) with these simple bit swaps.
Traitor Champion Consul: $43 €35 £27.50
(Direct From Forge World Webstore)
Even the traitorous dogs of the 31st Millennium still have their pride, and the Traitor Champion Consuls are chosen from the best blades in their ranks. This ferocious duellist is made of Forge World resin, and wears augmented MKIII artificer armour. He wields a paragon blade and a volkite serpenta, and has a choice of two heads – helmed or bare. He can be used by any of the Traitor Legions as a close-combat character-killer.
With a pretty dope mini, this is an easy pick-up for any traitor-legion player in Horus Heresy.
The End and the Death Vol II: Available From Black Library $35
The latest chapter of arguably the most epic story in Warhammer history is finally (nearly) here. The End and the Death Vol II by Dan Abnett is a tour de force – answering almost as many questions as it poses, and culminating in the definitive version of a duel that’s lingered in the background for real-time decades.
With Terra besieged and humanity’s salvation on a knife edge, Sanguinius, primarch of the loyalist Blood Angels, braves the horrors of the Warmaster’s flagship, The Vengeful Spirit, with a single purpose in mind: to slay his brother Horus, decapitate the Heresy once and for all, and stop the forces of Chaos from taking Terra.
This volume is being released as a numbered special edition strictly limited to 2,500 copies, and as a regular hardback, an eBook, and an MP3.
Part two of the climax of the Horus Heresy will most likely be a banger!
The End and the Death Vol II (Collector’s Edition): Available From Black Library $80
The special edition has full-colour art pages, a leather-effect cover, a ribbon bookmark, and an author’s signature.
As usual, this will go fast, so jump on it quickly if you want it.
Word Bearers: The Omnibus: Available From Black Library $21
The Word Bearers have struck fear into the hearts of their enemies for many a dark millennium. Long since having succumbed to the power of Chaos, their rampages across the stars and terrible deeds in the service of the Dark Gods have raged for ten thousand blood-soaked years.
Collected for the first time in one volume, this trilogy of explosive tales by Anthony Reynolds follows the traitorous sons of Lorgar as they plunge into war zones and blistering space battles, facing destruction from all fronts as they enslave the Imperial planet Tanakreg, decipher an ancient necron artefact, and take on all manner of alien forces in their quest to tear down the Imperium of Man.
Word Bearers are a favorite legion for plenty of players, making this a great pick-up if that’s you and you haven’t read the books prior!
Dead Men Walking (MP3) Available From Black Library
When the necrons rise, a mining planet descends into a cauldron of war. The remorseless foes decimate the human defenders, but salvation comes in an unlikely form – the Death Korps of Krieg, a force as unfeeling as the necrons themselves. As two callous armies go to war, casualties are high and the magnitude of the destruction is unimaginable. This classic by Steve Lyons comes to MP3 audiobook.
This is the first time you can get this in an audiobook, so if you’ve been waiting to listen, now is the time!
