Big things come in small packages you could say, with the release of the new Hordes Gargantuans Rulebook!
This book is stuffed cover to cover with amazing art, and great stories to inspire players to new heights of gaming with these HUGE figures.
First off, the book itself is 156 pages long, and written by a host of authors, and developers as with Privateer Press it’s a team project to produce these things.
Gargantuans is the second “Huge” release for Privateer as it’s sister book Colossals came out with the rules for these larger sized models in Warmachine last year.
Of course the main purpose of the book is to provide the rules for the Gargantuan line of models, but it also added in some play mechanics to keep the game relevant at the larger point values.
Next is the “Painting Guide” for the Gargantuans, which if you’re used to Games Workshop books is non-existent anymore in their rulebooks.
Here’s a look at the full color gallery, which with respect to the size of these models, is worth more than just a cursory glance. That Archangel literally is bigger than the book, lol.
Rules wise the book gives you “formations” for fielding larger squads of non Gargantuan models (and attaching Warlocks), as well as the rules for playing with the big guys themselves.

Happy Modeling! -MBG

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.
Scale model hobbyist in the 80s, miniature wargamer, and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
