There’s a lot of chatter today about a new BIG kit that may be coming for Khorne.  Come see the latest!

I was told there was a new big kit for Khorne coming. “Exalted Deathbringer” sounds about right.

When corrected that this was the name of the new smaller Khorne mode he had this to say:

Ah, okay. In that case this model is not the one I just mentioned. Think Bloodthirster size.

blood-for-the-blood-god

While Darnok may have been mistaken about the name, there is a Soulgrinder of Khorne that figures prominently in the first campaign book. Perhaps we’ll see a Glottkin type model of that in the near future?

Or it could be part of an upcoming Tzeentch expansion as well…

Here’s what we’ve heard about the rest of the Khorne releases, and potential Tzeentch release rumors as well.
