Champions of Slaanesh Army Box

 

Kickstart your Emperor’s Children army with the Champions of Slaanesh box set, complete with new miniatures, Noise Marines, and the new codex!

Packed with new miniatures, including elegant Noise Marines and versatile Infractors, this set doesn’t just look stunning—it’s a glamorous beacon of Slaanesh-touched perfection. Here’s what you get:

• 12 Noise Marines: Enough to form two squads with plenty of weapon options.
• 20 Infractors / Tormentors: Versatile kits that can be built to suit your preferred playstyle.
• Lord Exultant: A charismatic commander to lead your forces.
• Exclusive Emperor’s Children Codex Cover: A stunning collector’s item that’s as stylish as the models themselves.
• Datacards and Transfers: Essential tools to bring your army to life.

Lords Exultant: Tactical Sadists

These leaders take sadism to the next level. With finely honed combat skills and a knack for crafting intricate battle plans, they wield both their weapons and minds with precision. If your style leans toward calculated cruelty, the Lords Exultant will feel right at home.

Lords Kakophonist: The Sonic Overload

Noise Marines are iconic, and the Lords Kakophonist amplify their chaos to deafening levels. Armed with sonic weaponry, these commanders orchestrate an audio-visual nightmare, turning sound into a weapon so powerful it can warp reality itself.

Noise Marines: Masters of Mayhem

Sonic blasters, screamer pistols, and blastmaster cannons—the Noise Marines are walking sound systems of destruction. Their updated miniatures are stunning, featuring intricate ornamentation and daemonic details that perfectly capture their aesthetic. 

Infractors and Tormentors: Versatile Warriors

The line troops of the Emperor’s Children come in two flavors. Infractors are thrill-seeking close-combat experts, while Tormentors focus on ranged combat with their highly ornate boltguns. Both options let you tailor your army’s playstyle while keeping the Slaaneshi aesthetic front and center.

Flawless Blades: Melee Perfection

They’re the embodiment of what happens when vanity meets violence. Legion champions who fully embrace the excitement of close combat transform into Flawless Blades, a shadowy counterpart to the esteemed Palatine Blades of the Great Crusade.

Lucius the Eternal: A Duelist Like No Other

The name “Lucius the Eternal” sends chills through even the most hardened opponents. His cursed sword, the Blade of the Laer, is as deadly as his unyielding ego. Whether cutting down enemies or tormenting them with his grotesque whip, Lucius personifies the Emperor’s Children’s obsession with mastery in battle.

Emperor’s Children Codex & New Rules

When assembling your Emperor’s Children army, from the new codex book, balance is key. Combine the raw melee power of Flawless Blades with the ranged devastation of Noise Marines to create a force that can adapt to any battlefield. 

GW Confirms the Lord of Poxes

When a Death Guard champion climbs high enough on the festering ladder of rank, they don’t just get a pat on the back—they adopt one of the Mantles of Corruption. These grim honors, Mortarion’s twisted brainchildren, embody different filthy flavors of warfare, complete with their own grotesque wargear.

You’ve probably already seen the Lords of Virulence and Contagion in action, but now the Lords of Poxes are here to join the party (and it looks like the leaks were true). Armed with a miasmic turbine (because why not?), these rusty contraptions of whirring blades and sputtering engines churn out clouds of airborne contagion to spread the love—or the plague.

Hell’s Last Enter the Fray

Captain Lesk and her ragtag veteran command squad lead the Cadian 101st—better known as Hell’s Last—with a lineup as colorful as it is deadly. Over her many missions, Lesk’s picked up an eclectic mix of personalities, including Grawnya Ironbrow (first introduced in Shadow of the Eighth), Veteran Trooper Jaromir, and Commissar Shand.

Oh, and carrying the seventh company’s standard? None other than Confessor Talbeas—because Astra Militarum doctrine was clearly too boring for this squad.

Minka herself makes her second plastic debut, this time as a seasoned commander with some serious presence. Whether you’re a fan of Astra Militarum novels or just love collecting unique minis, this squad is a must-have—and they’ll even come with a Legends datasheet for casual Warhammer 40,000 battles.

Slaanesh’s Fabulous Flex: New Fulgrim Primarch Model

Perhaps the most exciting—and most highly speculated—new release is Fulgrim, the Daemon Primarch of the Emperor’s Children.

Fans have been clamoring for a plastic Daemon Fulgrim model for years, and now Games Workshop has created what could be one of their most impressive models to date.

If there’s one thing Fulgrim knows, it’s how to make an entrance. When a Primarch decides to go full Daemon, you can bet it wouldn’t be subtle.

New 40k Skulls: Order Link, Release Date January 25th, 2025

Games Workshop’s new Battlefield Trophies Kit is a skull-filled dream for anyone looking to give their miniatures some extra flair. With 288 bits, including helmets, battlefield debris, and over 150 skulls (even mutated ones), it’s packed with storytelling potential.

Whether you’re adding drama to a single model or a whole army, this kit is your shortcut to bases that mean business. Go check out all the basing bits here!

New Death Korps of Krieg Army Set: Order Link, Release Date January 25th, 2025

Thinking of starting a 40k Death Korps of Krieg army? The upcoming launch box is like a grim gift from the Emperor himself—packed with all the essentials to kickstart your force; it’s both practical and downright beautiful. Here’s what’s inside:

• 10- Death Riders of Krieg
• Lord Marshal Varnan Dreir
• 5- Combat Engineers
• 1- Artillery Team
• Alternative Art Cover Astra Miltarium Codex & Datacards

Confirmed New Models for Death Korps of Krieg 2025 Release:

• Army Launch Box Set is complete with an alternative art codex cover and new models.
• Death Korps Infantry Squad (may just be a variant of the Kill Team release, as this army pic seems to indicate)
• Plastic Death Riders (cavalry units)
• Command HQ Squad  featuring a new banner bearer)
• Engineers/Sappers  (minefield deployment specialists)
• Heavy Weapons Teams (It would make sense to get heavy weapon teams)
• Artillery Units (new plastic variants)
• Character Model (Lord Marshal Varnan Dreir)

The Army set box comes with a codex featuring stunning Death Korps artwork. It’s not just a rulebook—it’s a love letter to Krieg fans, packed with lore, detachments, and enough strategic variety to keep your games fresh. Plus, it looks fantastic on your hobby desk. See the full reveal of the Army Set and all the new Krieg models in our article here.

Aeldari: The Ghosts of the Past Return

Aeldari will be getting Aspect Warriors with new sculpts to “round out the line” in early 2025. With new units and updates on the horizon, they’re ready to strike fear—or at least mild concern—into the hearts of their enemies.

• Phoenix Lord, Baharroth
• Phoenix Lord, Asurman
• Phoenix Lords Lhykhis
• Phoenix Lord Fuegan (who we saw already)
• Swooping Hawks
• Fire Dragons
• Warp Spiders
• 10th Edition Eldar Codex

Tons of new Aeldari miniatures are swooping into 10th Edition Warhammer 40k, including Phoenix Lords, Aspect Warriors, and codex rules! We’ve been hearing rumors about this for months; go check out all the latest here!

Fuegan The Phoenix Lord’s Fiery NewAeldari Model 

Fuegan, Phoenix Lord of the Fire Dragons, returns armed with Searsong and a fiery fate, as GW confirms the leaks with a stunning new model! The legend of Fuegan, Phoenix Lord of the Fire Dragons, just got a massive glow-up, literally and figuratively (and an early reveal, possibly due to the leaked images of Fuegan on the internet).

After lurking in the shadows (and some seriously mysterious Webway paths), Fuegan has blasted back into the Aeldari spotlight.

Warhammer 40k 2024 Christmas Battleforces: Release Date November 30th, 2024

For Warhammer 40k, there are five new Battleforces, each tailored for a different faction.

Each Warhammer 40k Battleforce is designed to function as a starting point and complement the contents of each faction’s Combat Patrol box, providing a perfect starting point or a valuable addition to existing collections. Take a look at what’s coming for each game system here.

Combat Patrol Magazine Exclusive: Infernus Sergeant

In Issue 5 of Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol magazine, things are about to get seriously heated with the exclusive Infernus Marine Sergeant release date.

This isn’t just any Space Marine—this guy is armed with a pyre-blaster and is ready to roast anything that dares to stand in the way of the Imperium.  Whether you’re a collector or a player, adding this Sergeant to your squad is like throwing fuel on the fire (in the best possible way.)

Warhammer+ Plus 2024 Miniatures: Inquisitor Ostromandeus

In the shadowy corridors of the Imperium, where conspiracy theories are gospel and heretics outnumber recaf vendors, Inquisitor Ostromandeus strides with the confidence of someone who’s had to incinerate one too many cultists before his first meal of the day.

Of course, Ostromandeus doesn’t work alone. Meet Stentor-I-52, a walking loudspeaker who can unleash sermons that could crack a cathedral’s stained glass. There’s also the floating Vox Skull, hovering nearby to capture every stern monologue Ostromandeus delivers.

Honestly, it’s more like a podcast for the damned. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be verbally berated by someone who can back it up with holy fire, Stentor-I-52 is here to give you that experience.

Lieutenant Titus Miniature: (As a Separate Release: Available in Warhammer Stores)

This new model captures the valiant spirit of Lieutenant Titus, clad in his Mark X Tacticus armor. Armed with a master-crafted auto-bolt rifle, Titus stands ready to lead his Space Marine brothers in a dynamic pose that reflects his battlefield prowess.

Ideal for painters and collectors alike, this miniature is a must-have for enhancing your Ultramarines army and bringing the lore of Warhammer 40k to life on your tabletop now!

Biosigns Terminated: Warhammer Stores Exclusive 2025

Biosigns Terminated is a miniature diorama that practically screams “welcome to the horrors of the 41st Millennium.” Featuring Genestealers—the galaxy’s apex predators—it captures the chilling aftermath of a bloody skirmish on a derelict Space Hulk.

40k Kill Team Brutal & Cunning: Ratlings vs Ork Tankbustas (Release Date November 21st, 2024)

This latest Kill Team expansion shines the spotlight on Ratling snipers, who are often overlooked in favor of larger, more imposing factions. However, their cunning and skill make them formidable foes, especially with the new models showcasing their quirky personalities and stealthy combat techniques.

Opposing them are the infamous Ork Tankbustas, known for their destructive power and relentless assault on heavily fortified positions.

Tempestus Aquilons: (Release Date November 21st, 2024)

When the Militarum Tempestus drop in, they don’t come quietly. The Tempestus Aquilons – a new breed of Scions – make a point of entering the battlefield like human thunderbolts. Unlike their more terrestrial kin, these warriors hurtle into the fray on grav-chutes, storming enemy lines with all the subtlety of a chainsword to the face.

New Tau Empire Vespid Stingwings Models: (Release Date November 21st, 2024)

On the other side of this metal-rich deathtrap are the Vespid Stingwings – the T’au Empire’s buzzing, winged vanguard. The Vespid have always been the quiet workhorses of the T’au’s auxiliary forces, and in Hivestorm, they finally take center stage. This time, they’re not just backing up the Fire Warriors – they’re leading the charge.

40k Kill Team Roadmap?

It looks like time has run out for the Kill Team Games Workshop’s upcoming New Release, 40k Warhammer Roadmap. Perhaps we will see a new one soon for the new edition and season starting with Hivestorm!

New Warhammer 40k Necromunda Models, Roadmap & Release Previews for 2024-25:

The latest new release date roadmap for Games Workshop and Warhammer 40k Necromunda in 2024-25 is out, and it’s packed with cool updates that’ll keep your gangs looking sharp and ready for action.

From awesome new sculpts to revamped classics, Games Workshop is bringing the heat to the underhive, underhells, or ash wastes, depending on what you’re playing. And if you’re itching to know about the newest gang books, we’ve got all the scoop right here for you.

Click here to order your upcoming Games Workshop new releases from the Warhammer 2024-25 Roadmap for less from these 40k and Age of Sigmar retailers. Give us a high-five in support; every qualifying purchase helps Spikey Bits keep the lights on and the fun going.

Last update on 2025-01-19 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API

The lineup of the first Necromunda Releases has been leaked (on accident by Games Workshop). You can see them here, but they will be officially previewed soon…

Sha’dar hunters

The Ash Wastes Sha’dar Hunters Nomads are staking their claim in the harshest environments imaginable. Now, if you’re looking to add some tactical flair—and a bit of venomous bite—to your gang warfare, these desert dwellers might just be your ticket to the ultimate gang showdown. 

The Arsenal: Mutant-Inspired Mayhem

The Nomads’ gear is a mix of salvaged tech and organic horror. Their close-combat weapons, coated in venom, can incapacitate foes faster than you can say “game over.” For heavier engagements, the upcoming plastic weapons and upgrades kit brings more options to the table.

The Creatures: Arthromite Spinewyrms

If the weapons weren’t scary enough, the Nomads also tame Arthromite Spinewyrms—massive mutant beasts with a penchant for destruction. These burrowing terrors can punch through dunes, rock, and even armor.

Tribes of the Wastelands Supplement

With the release of Necromunda: Tribes of the Wastelands, the Ash Waste Nomads are leveling up in a big way. This expansion introduces:

• Updated gang rules
• New hired guns and Dramatis Personae
• Themed scenarios for immersive battles
• A trading post for unique gear
• Mystical elements to enhance your gang’s flavor

Thatos Pattern Fortified Hab

No game is complete without a killer setup, and Necromunda doesn’t disappoint. The Thatos Pattern Fortified Hub Module is a must-have for creating a secure base in the ash wastes. With reinforced structures and safe observation posts, it’s perfect for holding your ground against raiders and storms alike.

Ruined Underhive Sector

If urban chaos is more your style, the Ruined Underhive Sector box offers everything you need to construct a twisted maze of wreckage. With 72 terrain pieces, you’ll have endless options for crafting the ultimate battleground.

Ko’iron Ministorum Delegation

In the grim hives of Necromunda, faith isn’t just alive—it’s roaring like a bonfire, thanks to the tireless efforts of Noble House Ko’iron and the fanatically devout House Cawdor. When subtlety fails, House Ko’iron unleashes their Ministorum Delegation to keep the faithful masses in line—a trio of resin-cast zealots made up of two battle-hardened Frateris Bodyguards and the commanding Prima Materis, a priestess steeped in Imperial dogma.

Draped in the symbols of the Imperial Creed, their prayers and rituals serve more than just piety—they’re tools for the house’s own agenda. Rules for these fiery emissaries can be found in Necromunda: House of Faith and Book of the Outcast, making them a perfect addition for players ready to bring a little holy fury to their games.

House Ty Onmyodo Coven

House Ty on Necromunda has some intriguing roots, claiming to be descended from the Nihon Empire and Dragon Isle of Ancient Terra. Although they keep the classic looks from Ancient Terra, they’re way more in touch with their psychic side than their ancestors. A lot of them even end up in Lord Helmawr’s personal group of psykers and astropaths.

They’ve got a solid partnership with House Delaque, but they’re open to teaming up with just about anyone if the deal is right. Just keep in mind this will be in Forge World resin. 

New Heretek

Hereteks are the black sheep of the Adeptus Mechanicus—a crew of audacious inventors who gleefully bend, break, and remix the sacred tech-lore of Mars. To them, 10,000 years of enforced stagnation is less “tradition” and more “a joke worth mocking,” best illustrated by strapping a squishy assistant to their back and arming them with a wildly experimental weapon.

 The Heretek and Servo-skulls are made from that fancy Forge World resin—because who doesn’t love a little luxury in their tabletop game? You can find their rules tucked away in the box or, for the more adventurous, in Necromunda: Book of Ruin.

‘Narker & Cadaver Merchant

Abyssal Ferryman

Meet Madryc Helbane and his trusty sidekick, Lugrun—the Ferryman duo of Port Grave. While most of their fellow Ferrymen prefer to keep their hands clean, Madryc loves diving headfirst into battles against the dreaded Malstrain, and with Lugrun’s muscle backing him up, they’re a force to be reckoned with.

You’ll be able to snag this legendary pair in Forge World Resin, complete with all their quirky rules in Necromunda: The Book of Desolation, where you’ll also find other Abyssal Ferrymen team rules ready to set sail!

Delaque Servant of the Silent Ones

It’s no wonder House of Shadow agents give folks the chills—they tend to bring along some of the most unsettling creatures in the underhive. Case in point: the Servant of the Silent Ones, a bizarre blend of machinery and organic matter that turns even the wildest rumors into plausible reality.

These unsettling hybrids of plasteel and genetic fragments are engineered to mirror the haunting visions dreamed up by the Star Chamber, the enigmatic council of Delaque leaders bound by the strange and inscrutable will of the Psychoterica.

New Necrumnda Whisper Agent: Silberlant Sevos

Down in the depths of the hives, independent operators are the real power players in the rumor game. The most feared and respected of these is simply known as the Infotek—a former Van Saar ganger by the name of Silberlant Sevos.

Though his broken body’s bound to a suspensor chair, Sevos’ mind remains as lethal as any weapon in the underhive. In his old life, he had an ambitious dream: merging his consciousness with House Van Saar’s sacred STC, creating a synaptic link powerful enough to transcend mere mortal limits.

Games Workshop New Horus Heresy Model Releases Previews:

Get the scoop on the upcoming Warhammer 40k Horus Heresy Age of Darkness roadmap for 2024-25 from Games Workshop, loaded with all the juicy updates that will make any hobbyist’s heart skip a beat.

Tons of awesome new sculpts and revamped classics are on the way as Games Workshop goes all out to keep your armies looking fresh and fierce. And if you’re itching to know about the latest campaign books, we’ve got the inside scoop right here for you!

The Thanatar Calix Boots Up

The Thanatar Calix isn’t here to cause chaos everywhere—it’s got a more refined taste for destruction. This big boy specializes in taking out the toughest targets on the battlefield, whether it’s a lumbering war machine or a stubborn fortification.

Its weapon of choice? A beefy Sollex-pattern heavy lascannon that makes other guns in its weight class look like toys. This beast can punch clean through the armor of a super-heavy tank and knock out its targeting systems with a nasty Shock Pulse, proving that precision and power can go hand in hand.

New Traitor Herald Consul

Every hero needs their foil, and that’s exactly what the Traitor Herald Consul is—a grim reflection of the Astartes Herald Consul. But don’t mistake him for just a simple villain. This character oozes dishonor, bearing the shame of his Legion alongside the mark of the Warmaster.

That’s right—the Eye of Horus is prominently displayed on this miniature, tying him firmly to the Traitor forces that carved their bloody path across the galaxy.

Loyalist Herald Consul

Herald Consuls are way more than just fighters; they’re the go-to guys who have really earned their Primarchs’ respect. Bringing a Legion Standard into battle is not just a cool perk but also a big deal in the Horus Heresy. These banners not only get the troops fired up but also give everyone a clear focus when things get hectic, plus they represent what their Legion stands for. And hey, the Loyalist Herald Consul, made from Forge World resin, is dropping later this year!

Horus Heresy Traitor Overseer

Overseers were experienced Space Marines promoted to manage mortal auxiliaries during the Horus Heresy. Loyalist Overseers were all about inspiring their troops, leading from the front with impressive power mauls and speeches that stirred the hearts of their human allies.

Traitor Overseers, on the other hand, took a much darker approach. These guys didn’t bother with speeches—they used fear. See all the details on the new preview here!

Legion Overseers

On the Great Crusade, the Legiones Astartes marched into battle alongside legions of Solar Auxilia and Imperial militia—human troops who, while giving it their all, simply couldn’t match the Emperor’s superhuman gold standard.

The latest Forge World resin miniature version spares no effort to show this off, with ornate trim, an imposing back banner, and even a choice of laurel-crowned helmets—whether you prefer the faceplate or the flowing locks look.

Iron Hands Legion Praetor

Iron Fathers, the elite commanders of the Iron Hands, are master artisans dedicated to creating ever-more efficient and destructive tools of war. For them, function triumphs over form—a philosophy passed down from the Gorgon himself—as they fuse flesh with machinery in their relentless quest for power.

This new praetor exemplifies their craft, clad in finely wrought Artificer armor and armed with a crushing power fist, a grav pistol, and a servo-arm array built for battle. Perched on his shoulder is a cyber-familiar, a wired haemonculite synced to his neural network, acting as a second set of eyes and reflexes to keep him one step ahead of enemy strikes.

Iron Warriors Warsmiths

There are two awesome versions of this miniature. One is standing there, taking in the battlefield like he’s about to wage war on his own fortifications. The other version shows him moving forward with purpose, hammer in hand, ready to get to work.

Just a heads up, that second version will only be available at Warhammer World! These Iron Warriors Warsmiths are made from Forge World resin and will be up for grabs soon.

 Caster of Runes: Legion Consul for the Space Wolves

The Caster of Runes is a distinctive Legion Consul for the Space Wolves, channeling mysterious Fenrisian rituals to harness an ethereal power he steadfastly claims isn’t drawn from the Warp but from the primal heart of Fenris itself.

Decked out in armor and wargear inscribed with intricate runes and shamanistic relics, he embodies this belief with unshakable conviction. Looks like GW avoided their most memed Warhammer product and didnt give him the Doggo helmet head.

GW Reveals New HH Plastic Tanks, Arvus Lighter, & Deredeo

Upgrade your Horus Heresy battles with new plastic kits, from the versatile Arvus Lighter to devastating Malcador tanks and powerful Deredeo weapons. Here is what is on deck next for the Age of Darkness!

• The Arvus Lighter
• Valdor Tank Hunter
• Malcador Infernus
• Deredeo Dreadnought (2 sets with weapon variants)

From scrappy transports to tank-melting lasers and sky-shredding missiles, this latest preview lineup from the World Championships of Warhammer offers something for every commander looking to bring a little extra carnage to the tabletop. See all the new releases for Horus Heresy in our full preview article here.

Warhammer 40k Horus Heresy 2024-25 Roadmap

The Horus Heresy never fails to surprise, and this year, the Age of Darkness has been anything but quiet. From the march of the Solar Auxilia and the Mechanicum stepping up their game to the battlefield-shaking introduction of Legions Imperialis, there’s enough going on to make even the most battle-hardened Primarch raise an eyebrow.

The Future of Horus Heresy: Age of Darkness

Looking ahead to 2025, it seems we’ll be treated to an array of new tanks and plastic weapons options for existing walkers. For those with a penchant for armored warfare, this is your time to shine.

Plus, at Nova Open, they said Marines will get releases “for years” in both Legions Imperialis and Horus Heresy. Finally, September marks the return of a beloved tradition: Heresy Thursday previews!

New Legions Imperialis Model Release Previews:

Chart your course through the tumultuous times of the Horus Heresy with the new release roadmap for Horus Heresy: Legions Imperialis!

This 2024-25 roadmap is your ultimate guide to all the upcoming releases for games like Warhammer 40k, revealing all the upcoming new miniatures, upcoming expansions, and game-changing updates.

Whether you’re commanding loyalist forces or leading the charge for the traitor legions, this roadmap will ensure you’re always one step ahead in assembling and upgrading your army for the epic battles that will shape the fate of the galaxy!

GW Brings Dark Mechanicum Models to Warhammer

The introduction of these new models into Legions Imperialis is a moment to remember. Until now, the Dark Mechanicum has mainly been hinted at in lore, with only a few models and mentions scattered across various books and campaigns.

The Serperaos Overlord Heavy Stalker

The first model of this new faction to be unveiled is the Serperaos Overlord Heavy Stalker. This new unit showcases the Dark Mechanicum’s sinister blend of arcane machinery and dark, chaotic energy. 

Stalker Constructs

The Serperos ‘Overlord’ Heavy Stalker was just the beginning. Now, meet its deadlier cousins: the Tennebrax ‘Archer’ Battle Stalker Cohort and the Errax ‘Butcher’ Assault Stalker Cohort. They work best together, with the Archers setting ’em up and the Butchers knocking ’em down.

Harpax Swarmers: Chaff with a Nasty Bite

The Stalker Constructs box includes 30 models, with eight Harpax ‘Swarmer’ Scout Hosts, as well as two of each Errax, Tenebrax, and Scintillax for variety. Meanwhile, the Serperos ‘Overlord’ Heavy Stalkers box comes with four hulking models and includes the necessary terminals to field Errax, Tenebrax, Scintillax, and Serperos in Adeptus Titanicus. 

Scintillax ‘Cyclops’

The leader of the deadly automatons is the Scintillax ‘Cyclops’. This advanced machine processes information at a dizzying speed, issuing orders to keep all the other machines operating like a hive mind.

Command the Undead With New Deathrattle Army Set

Command the Wight Kings, Barrow Guard, and skeletal knights as they rise to conquer with the new AoS Soulblight Gravelords Deathrattle Army Set!

This new box set comes with the following:

• 5 Barrow Knights
• 20 Barrow Guard
• 1 Wight Lord
• Exclusive Soulblight Gravelords Battletome and Cards

The Wight King on Steed

At the head of this grim procession is the Wight King on Steed, a ruler with a taste for conquest even in undeath.  On the tabletop, the Wight King excels at commanding cavalry and adding cursed firepower to your army. Pairing him with the Barrow Knights makes for a devastating combination.

The Barrow Guard

The Barrow Guard are the steadfast bodyguards of the Wight King. Loyal beyond death, they were buried with their ruler, armed and armored for eternal service. They can be equipped with either swords and shields or spears, making them versatile warriors.

The Skeleton Spearhead Box: More Bones for Your Buck

This set includes everything you need to bolster your forces: a Wight King, Barrow Knights, Barrow Guard, and a heap of Deathrattle Skeletons.

Prince Vhordrai and the Revenant Dragon

Let’s talk about the star of the show, Prince Vhordrai. Cursed by Nagash himself, this vampire lord rides into battle on Shordemaire, a massive undead dragon that’s as terrifying as it is imposing (160 mm base, folks).

Vampire Lord on Nightmare Steed 

It looks like the rumors were true, and a new character is here to lead the Gravelords on the march in the Mortal Realms.

Battletome: Soulblight Gravelords

The new Battletome: Soulblight Gravelords brings the undead narrative to life—well, sort of. Packed with fresh lore, the book dives (whoops, not that word) into the grim history of the Barrow Kingdoms and the vampire monarchies that rule them. It also introduces terrain features and manifestations to add flavor to your games.

Oh, and did we mention the four new battle regiments? These regiments, along with rules for armies of renown, will give your undead legions more strategic flexibility on the tabletop.

Maleneth Witchblade Jumps From the Page

Meet Maleneth Witchblade—yes, that Maleneth, in all her deadly glory.

This aelven assassin might have the Order of Azyr breathing down her neck, but that doesn’t stop her from dispatching enemies straight to Shyish with style. After all, her coven’s been left in pieces at the once-pious Khainite stronghold of Nightcliff, and someone’s got to clean up the mess.

This commemorative miniature is a total gem for fans of the Daughters of Khaine or Warhammer Age of Sigmar novels. Bonus points if you’ve got the Gotrek Gurnisson miniature—because let’s be honest, they’d look epic side by side.

Galen and Doralia: Outnumbered

Richard Strachan’s famed heroes, Galen and Doralia ven Denst, are back to show (and their second set miniatures) why they’re the Order of Azyr’s top-notch witch hunters.

These Sigmarite legends are taking on Skaven mayhem across the Mortal Realms, and this year’s Boxing Day commemorative miniature—Galen and Doralia. 

This Christmas, fans have two shots at snagging this epic Commemorative Series miniature. First up, there’s an exclusive in-store window running from December 26th to January 3rd—perfect for a post-holiday treat!

Let’s hope there will be some available, as AoS has had some allocation issues as of late… 

Iconic Fantasy Models Reborn In New Gloomspite Gitz Gitmob Release

With the Bad Moon looming over their heads and the Glareface Frazzlegit sparking fiery ambition in their squinty eyes, the Gitmob brings a new flavor of mayhem to Warhammer: Age of Sigmar with the Gloomspite Gitz Gitmob Army Set, Doom Diver, and more! Read more about the new Gitmob in our World Championships of Warhammer preview coverage here.

Orruk Warclans Next Up For Age of Sigmar: Order Link, Release Date January 18th, 2025

Two factions are gearing up to storm into the new battletome for the Orruk Warclans, the Ironjawz and Kruleboxy.  The Big Waaagh! is back, and let’s not forget the latest addition for the Kruleboyz: the Hobgrot Slittaboss, ready to take center stage!

Meanwhile, the Orruks are showing off their artistry by erecting some impressive structures, like the Bossrokk Tower and the Skaregob Totem, both sporting their own menacing visages.

To wrap things up, there’s a shiny new batch of Orruk manifestations making waves, including the second Spearhead for the Orruk Warclans. You can read more about the new updates from the WCW reveals here.

• Ironjawz Spearheard: Bigmob
• Orruk manifestations
• Bossrokk Towers / Skaregob Totems Terrain Kits
• Hobgrot Slittaboss
• Orruk Warclans Battletome

Stormcast Come To Warhammer Heroes Minis (already in Big Box Stores Like Target in the USA)

Warhammer fans, prepare to welcome a divine twist (different god, same style) to the beloved Warhammer Heroes series! After four runs dominated by Space Marines from the 41st Millennium, Games Workshop is finally giving us seven unique Stormcast Eternals heroes in Series 5. 

Leaked Soulblight Gravelords Othar Half-King Model

The Age of Sigmar (AoS) community is buzzing with excitement following the leak of the new Othar Half-King model for the Soulblight Gravelords. This commemorative miniature is expected to be a Warhammer Day exclusive or tied to an upcoming Games Workshop event like Boxing Day.

Such models often hint at larger things to come, and this release may well signal future developments for the Soulblight Gravelords in AoS.

Warhammer+ Plus 2024 Miniatures: Marshal Ashfield and Squire Udo

Over in the Mortal Realms, Marshal Ashfield is the poster child of battlefield elegance—if your idea of elegance includes heavy armor, a brace of pistols, and a perpetual look of determination.

He’s not the type to lead from the back. Ashfield’s the kind of Freeguild Marshal who gets right into the thick of it, blade swinging and pistols blazing. But let’s not forget Squire Udo, the unsung hero of this duo.

While Ashfield might be front and center, rallying troops with a war cry, Udo’s back there mumbling to himself, lugging around every potion, unguent, and tincture you could imagine.

New Warhammer Age of Sigmar Release Battletome Roadmap 40k Heading Into 2024-25

Up next in 2025 looks to be Nighthaunts and the Idoneth Deepkin (in no particular order), and judging from the teaser images, Blades of Khorne, Kharadron Overlords, and Daughters of Khaine look to be not far off as well. 

With the new Warhammer Age of Sigmar edition now available, it’s prime time to map out what’s next. It seems Destruction and Death will steal the spotlight early in 2025, with more than a few battletomes on the horizon.

No New Warhammer Warcry Miniatures: What’s the Hold Up?

You might have noticed that the latest previews didn’t include any new miniatures. Yeah, it’s a bit of a bummer, but don’t go throwing your dice in despair just yet. It seems like Games Workshop is taking a little pause on our favorite skirmish game.

Maybe they’re cooking up something epic behind the scenes or just giving us a moment to catch our breath (and our wallets a break). Who knows?

Warhammer Underworlds Model Release Previews:

The wait is over; the latest Warhammer Underworlds is back, bringing new warbands, powerful cards, and fresh mechanics to the game’s thrilling arena. These latest pre-orders are packed with everything you need to start building your ultimate deck and crushing your foes.

Order your upcoming new Games Workshop releases from the Warhammer 2024-25 Release Date Roadmap for less from these Blood Bowl, 40k, and Age of Sigmar retailers. 

Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz New Warband

The Moonclan Grots are back, and this time, they’re on the hunt for something big. Enter Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz, a new warband for Warhammer Underworlds, made up of six crafty grots, a smaller Troggoth named Uglug, and some seriously sneaky tactics. Their mission? Track down Trugg, the Troggoth king, and survive long enough to brag about it.

Warhammer Underworlds 2024: New Warbands & Updated Decks:

Release Date: December 7th, 2024

Just weeks after the Embergard set launches, we’ll saw two new warbands and two more Rivals decks, expanding your tactical toolbox with fresh combinations and playstyles. And that’s just the beginning. 2025 promises even more regular releases, so by the time you’ve mastered one warband’s ins and outs, there’ll be more lurking on the horizon.

Warhammer Underworlds New Edition: Embergard:

Release Date November 23rd, 2024

The new edition of Warhammer Underworlds takes players to the ruined city of Embergard, overrun by Skaven hordes and marked by the eerie glow of emberstone. This update offers revamped rules and a captivating new setting.

New Warhammer Underworlds Age of Sigmar Release Roadmap Heading Into 2024-25

So, you think the streets of the Mortal Realms are treacherous? Wait until you head underground. Warhammer Underworlds is back with a vengeance in 2024-25 (and quite a roadmap comparison from 2023), and it’s not just the rules that are getting a makeover.

We’re talking new warbands, revamped classics, and a whole lot of nasty surprises lurking in the shadows of Embergard. Here are the most exciting developments for 2025.

New Blood Bowl Model Release Previews:

Order your upcoming new Games Workshop releases from the Warhammer Blood Bowl 2024-25 Release Date Roadmap for less from these 40k and Age of Sigmar retailers. 

Jeremiah Kool Star Player: Order Link, Release Date January 18th, 2025

The debate over the greatest Blood Bowl player of all time is always a heated one, often stirred up by none other than one of the top contenders himself – the legendary Jeremiah Kool. Known for his unmatched speed and sky-high arrogance, Kool retired in 2488 after leading the Darkside Cowboys to a string of victories and racking up more MVP awards than even his ego could count!

Gnome Star Player Rowana Forestfoot: Order Link, Release Date January 18th, 2025

Gnomish Blood Bowl teams are famous for their quirky animal sidekicks—everything from honking geese to scrappy badgers—but Rowana takes it to a whole new level. The ex-captain of the Glimdwarrow Groundhogs charges onto the field astride her trusty stag, Flashhoof, bringing a serious speed upgrade to the usually chaotic Gnomish style of play.

Nurgle Star Player Guffle Pusmaw: Order Link, Release Date January 18th, 2025

In Blood Bowl, body mods and mutations are all part of the game’s colorful chaos. So, when a wandering Chaos God blesses you with a giant, slobbering stomach-mouth, it’s just another day on the pitch. And it’s a great way to get noticed.

With a name like Guffle Pusmaw, it’s safe to say his fate was pretty much set from birth. Once a regular human player for the Rocktown Rumblers, Guffle’s luck took a turn after a post-game jersey swap with a Nurgle Rotters player left him with more than just a nasty infection. Was it chance? Destiny? Only Nurgle knows—and he’s not talking.

Lizardmen Star Player Anqi Blocks Everything: Order Link, Release Date January 18th, 2025

The jungles of Lustria have produced some legendary Blood Bowl players, from the towering Kroxigor Glotl Stop to the slippery Skink twins Drull and Dribl. However, the elusive Temple Guards, those stone-faced Saurus warriors, seldom leave their sacred cities.

Usually tasked with protecting the Slann and their ancient relics with a near-mechanical focus, even they can’t resist the thrill of victory or the roar of the crowd—just ask Anqi Panqi, who discovered their love for the game firsthand.

Chaos Dwarfs Star Player Rashnak Backstabber: Order link, release date January 18th, 2025

The Chaos Dwarfs have stormed out of the Dark Lands, all fired up for some epic clashes—and hey, they might even sneak in a touchdown or two. Joining the roster is a sneaky hobgoblin with a bit of a notorious streak—Rashnak Backstabber.

This guy built his fearsome rep ratting out thieves in a forge, though rumor has it he had a knack for “suggesting” they pocket some loot just before turning them in.

New Old Worlds Beastmen Bray Shaman

Deep in the shadowy forests of the Old World, the Beastmen Brayherds skulk, twisted by Chaos and itching to tear down anything that’s remotely beautiful or civilized. They might be crude, but they’ve got their own dark traditions—and when Morghur the Shadowgave dropped a prophecy about a blind Beastman destined to help bring ruin to the world, they made sure to keep an eye on a certain squalling newborn. That little bundle of Chaos grew up to become Kralmaw, the Prophet of Ruin.

Kralmaw isn’t just your average Bray Shaman. He’s a master of bending the Winds of Magic to his will and earned his title thanks to the Chaos Gods blessing him with visions of the future—always disturbingly accurate.

With his prophetic powers, he rallied the Brayherds and unleashed them against the forces of Athel Loren, proving that even the wildest Beastmen have a knack for grand, destructive plans.

Sir Cecil Gastonne, The Wyrm Slayer

In the majestic lands of Bretonnia, noble lords and ladies take their roles as protectors of the realm very seriously. Sure, they could spend their days lounging in opulent castles and sipping fine wine, but that’s not their style. And when it comes to dragon-slaying, Sir Cecil Gastonne is the man for the job. Games Workshop finally unveiled his upcoming miniature and it looks great! 

Unlike many Bretonnian lords who prefer the saddle, Sir Cecil is known for fighting on foot. This makes him a natural leader for regiments of Foot Knights, rallying his troops as horseback lords thunder across the battlefield. See all the details and rules in our coverage here!

Grand Master of the Knights Panther, Harald Gemunsen

Remember that old-school Grand Master of the Knights Panther mini that was just leaked? Well, the new Harald Gemunsen figure definitely takes a page out of that classic book. And guess what? You’ll have the chance to snag the original (probably as MTO) when the Empire of Man range drops!

This guy pairs up with any valid Empire of Man army, but he really shines in the Knightly Order Army of Infamy, which lets you craft an army based around one of those legendary Knightly Orders. Plus, he’s made from Forge World resin and will be up for pre-order before you know it!

Three New Wizards Unleash the Winds of Magic For the Empire

Speaking of wizards, let’s check out these three magical misfits and their oddball sidekicks. First up is a Battle Wizard rocking Middenheim’s colors with a gnomish familiar that looks ready to burst under its own baggage. That whiff of Azyr magic? Definitely not subtle.

Next, there’s the Elementalist with a toad assistant, channeling the wild vibes of Ghyran and Ghur. If “nature magic” had a poster child, this duo would be it.

Last but not least, we’ve got a Necromancer. But don’t freak out—she’s one of the good ones, using the Wind of Death for the greater good. Her skeleton familiar might be a bit… vertically challenged, but hey, who’s judging?

Get ready to add a little arcane flair to your collection, these magical characters (and their quirky familiars) will hit the shelves in 2025, crafted from Forge World Resin and sold individually. 

General Hans von Löwenhacke

General Hans von Löwenhacke has made a career out of marching to the beat of many different drums—sometimes all within the same lifetime. A seasoned tactician, he’s fought under nearly every major banner across the Empire, from Middenland to Osterlund, proving that loyalty to strategy often trumps loyalty to a single flag. 

The lowdown on Nuln’s rules is coming your way in the upcoming Arcane Journal: Empire of Man. And if you’re looking to get your hands on the general, he’ll be strutting his stuff in Forge World resin. 

Frydaal The Chainmaker 

Unleash some Chaos with Frydaal the Chainmaker, your go-to Exalted Champion for any Chaos army—she’s like the perfect accessory that goes with everything! She really hits her stride in the Wolves of the Sea Army of Infamy. You can check out her rules and the details for her raiding crew in the Arcane Journal: Warriors of Chaos. And guess what? She’ll soon be strutting her stuff in Forge World Resin.

Burlok Damminson Gets a New Resin Model For the Old World

Dwarf Engineers might just be the Old World’s top tinkerers, though they’re often stifled by the Engineering Guild’s obsession with “the old ways.” But every now and then, a young genius breaks the mold—and a few beards—by proving innovation is worth the risk. Case in point: Burlok Damminson.

This up-and-comer has pushed Dwarf engineering further than anyone thought possible, and his latest rendition, crafted in Forge World resin, is set to hit pre-orders early next year.

More Exclusive Minis Returning For Warhammer The Old World

While they didn’t say when this Exalted Hero of Chaos from the 2009 Games Day would be making a return, they did tease a little more about all the other exclusive models returning.

Grand Cathay & Kislev Miniature Releases

When it comes to enjoying Fantasy Warhammer, it sometimes feels like the physical tabletop gets left in the dust. Games Workshop has released an update for those with the Shadows of Change DLC for Total War: Warhammer 3, discussing Grand Cathay and Kislev faction updates.

Unfortunately, they dropped a little reminder for Old World players, which may be a bit disappointing. In May 2020, Games Workshop released an update on Kislev for Warhammer the Old World, but we haven’t seen much since.

Warhammer Old World 2025 Roadmap: Empire, High Elves, & Chaos Unleashed in New Release

Here’s the scoop on the latest Warhammer Old World roadmap after the big LVO 2025 reveals. After we see all nine original factions, there is a surprise reveal waiting in the wings.

It’s shaping up to be an exciting time for Old World fans, and we’re all waiting to see what’s next. Stay tuned because this is getting interesting!

The Empire is marching, the High Elves are scheming, and Chaos is, well, doing what Chaos does best: stirring up trouble.  The Old World is about to get a whole lot more interesting.
