What Orktober… it’s time for Christmas. Check out all the new releases GW just previewed for the holidays from bundles to a new paint handle and more!
Just when you thought you’d get the rest of what you wanted for the fall, you’re getting holiday previews. See what’s coming next from Games Workshop.
GW Previews Christmas Bundles & More Coming Next Week
Scenery Bundles
Available to pre-order next weekend, come a host of board-filling scenery sets for Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar. Each contains a gaming-table’s worth of terrain, and are the perfect way to embark upon building that awesome board you’ve always dreamed of.
And let’s face it Sylvaneth fans – you really can never have enough Wyldwoods.
Painting Bundles
There’s also a swathe of new painting sets on the horizon, letting you take full advantage of the Citadel Paint System by getting a great selection of options from the Layer, Shade or Air ranges – plus a project box to boot.
There’s also an Ultimate Project Paint Set, for those of you in serious need of a stock up across all your colors or who are about to embark on a major painting project.
Hobby Tools
Remember life before the Citadel Painting Handle? We can’t.
If you’re anything like us, this unassuming little tool quickly established itself as one of your essential painting companions. And, alongside our best-ever water pot, it will soon be joined by 2 new handy tools. The first of these is a larger painting handle that can hold model bases as large as that of a Redemptor Dreadnought, so you can get a grip on any size of project. The second is an “armed” version that can hold multiple components in place while painting – giving you the advantages of painting by component, and of painting a fully assembled miniature all at once!
Battleforces
What would the holidays be without some new Battleforces? Traditionally costing $170 with lots more value packed inside, these are holiday favorites to give and receive!
On shelves in early December, the battleforces offer this year will include both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar armies – 10 in total. These are brilliant ways to kick off a new collection, each packed with great units that any army can use, meaning even if you’ve already got a considerable collection, you’ll find lots of stuff in these sets you can use.
We’ll have more details on what to expect closer to the time, but for now, here’s a preview of two of them…
Also landing in time for Christmas will be one of the most anticipated releases of the year land, with Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress. In this new game, you’ll have the chance to dive into one of the 41st Millennium darkest mysteries in thrilling cooperative adventures.
Working with your friends, you’ll choose from a cast of heroes and battle your way to the heart of a Blackstone fortress in search of glory and secrets… (also, monsters).
So if you wanted more from Orktober, too late! It’s over. Better luck next year! Stick with Spikey Bits for more details on what you need to put on your holiday shopping list.
