NEW FORGE WORLD – Imperial Fists Warders

new fw fists

It’s raining fists! Forge World just released a slew of new kits and upgrades today, all for the Imperial Fists (or their cousins the Crminson Fists).

Checkout the new Warders, and upgrade kits!  Also if you haven’t seen it yet, you may also want to checkout the upcoming Alexis Polux model as well.

I’m not a fists player, but after seeing these I just may not be able to resist!

Templar Brethren are the elite of the VIIth Legion. They are guardians of the Temple of Oaths aboard the Imperial Fists’ great fortress-ship the Phalanx and the Legion’s most highly accomplished warriors. With their superior skill in battle and the finest weapons at their disposal, they are at the spearhead of the Emperor’s Crusade to unify Mankind.

The VIIth Legion’s warships are defended from boarding assaults by the Phalanx Warders, warriors selected from amongst the best of the Imperial Fists Breacher squads. Staunch and immovable, they are the last line of defence when attack threatens and the first into the fray when the Legion boards enemy vessels.

These two upgrade sets contain an array of heads, torsos, shields and close combat weapons for you to upgrade a squad of Space Marines to Templar Brethren or Phalanx Warders. These squads can form part of an Imperial Fists Legion army in Horus Heresy games, and their rules can be found in The Horus Heresy Book Three – Extermination and Legiones Astartes – Isstvan Campaign Legions. Each set is a multi-part resin upgrade kit.

They are available to pre-order now and will be despatched from Friday 9th January 2015.

A bastion of loyalty in a sea of treachery and doubt, the Imperial Fists stood firm against the betrayal of their brother Legions. The most loyal sons of the Emperor, they are the masters of constructing fortifications on an immense scale, and accepted the honour of fortifying and defending Terra from the oncoming storm of the Horus Heresy.

These Mk II, Mk III and Mk IV shoulder pads feature Imperial Fists Legion iconography, and each set contains 10 resin Space Marine shoulder pads.

They are available to pre-order now and will be despatched from Friday 9th January 2015.
