This week’s Forge World pre-orders are in and we’re seeing new Legio Custodes terminators with special weapons!
Up for pre-order now are the following new releases from Forge World:
LEGIO CUSTODES AQUILON TERMINATORS WITH INFERNUS FIREPIKES £49
Description
Although the Tactical Dreadnought Armour project was conceived first and foremost for the use of the Legiones Astartes, it was inevitable given the success of Terminator armour that its principles could also be adapted for Legio Custodes use. The first pattern developed was what became known as Aquilon armour. Advancing yet further upon the Cataphractii Terminator armour patterns, the Aquilon pattern takes into account the enhanced physique of the Legio Custodes as being able to bear more weight and strain than even a Space Marine, and so is fitted with additional integrated power systems and capacitors which make up for some of the limitations of the origin pattern. This allows for the Cataphractii Terminator armour’s famous durability to be retained in the Aquilon pattern, but with a degree of speed and manoeuvrability the former lacks.
This multi-part resin kit contains the components necessary to assemble 3 Legio Custodes Aquilon Terminators with Infernus Firepikes. Sharing much of their components with the standard Aquilon Terminators, they are noticeably more complex-looking than standard Tactical Dreadnought armour, with additional integrated power systems and capacitors adding detail to the model. They differ from the standard Terminators in that each is armed with an Infernus firepike and Solerite power talon. 3 different helmets are included, with 1 bare head option. The breastplates, pauldrons and top plates are detailed with Imperial iconography, and there are 3 plumes, made up of 2 different designs.
This kit comes as 31 components, and is supplied with 3 50mm round bases. Rules for fielding these models in games of The Horus Heresy are available in The Horus Heresy Book Seven – Inferno.
LEGIO CUSTODES AQUILON TERMINATOR SQUAD £98
Description
Acquire a squad of 6 Aquilon Terminators to field in games of The Horus Heresy with this bundle. It contains 3 Legio Custodes Aquilon Terminators with Infernus Firepikes, wielding their namesake weapon and Solerite talons, and a set of 3 Legio Custodes Aquilon Terminators, each armed with a Solerite power gauntlet, with an option of Adrathic destructor or Lastrum storm bolter in the other hand. Supplied with 6 50mm round bases.
