2015-05-03_2001

In a surprise move Games Workshop release the new Assassin Execution Force, along with FOUR brand new Assassin models. This marks the first time they’ve seen a redesign in nearly 20 years.

The new box set contains the four new Assassin models and plays out in a game format on a ‘Space Hulk’ style board. It also includes the existing Chaos Terminator Lord, Cultists, and several push fit Chaos Space Marine models.

ASSASSIN EXECUTION FORCE

Here’s the highlights via Games Workshop

A brand-new boxed game, Assassinorum: Execution Force gives four Imperial Assassins an incredibly important mission – slay Chaos Lord Drask before his dark ritual brings about the end of the Imperium itself! A fast-paced co-operative game for one to four players, it blends stealth, tactics, subtle forward-thinking and outright blazing violence into a fantastic, tense, action-packed experience that is accessible to board game players of any level.

It’s really nice to see new models given a make-over like this. If it takes a full on mini-game release to get us more updated plastic characters I am all for it!

If you’re looking for the 40k rules to the new Assassins, better pick up White Dwarf #65 or buy the digital codex, as they are not included with the game.

The new Assassinorum: Execution Force is currently available for $125.

The new Assassin models don’t fail to impress!
