Unlike Warhammer 40,000, Age of Sigmar, Warcry, Necromunda, Adeptus Titanicus, Blood Bowl, Aeronautica Imperialis, and more, which all have available starter sets. There are no starter sets or easy ways to start playing the game. Rumors abound of potential rules changes. We’ve all seen the leaked images of what appear to be new plastic miniatures. The uncertainty continues, and Games Workshop and Forge World continue to have a communication problem when it comes to this game system.Īs it stands, the 30k community sits in a weird place. There was nothing on the future of the game system, and no reassurance that it would continue to receive support from the company(beyond the Jaghatai Khan preview). Or that new sets or plastics are coming for Horus Heresy. There was no acknowledgement that the leaked pictures are real, or that the minis are plastic. There was no Horus Heresy box set reveal. And as of the time of this writing, two days after Warhammer Day, the community is still waiting. Long months have passed without Games Workshop appearing to acknowledge this summer’s leaked images. We were all expectant and eagerly waiting for any kind of official preview. The community speculated that such a box set and rules revamp would be released around November, because Calth and Prospero both released around this time of year. I would go so far as to say that they may even be crucial to attracting new players to the game.Īlong with rumors of new box sets came rumors of a “rules revamp”, possibly even a “Horus Heresy 2.0”, which would clean up some of the existing rules. In short, new and readily available plastic Horus Heresy kits are needed. Betrayal at Calth and Burning of Prospero are long out of print, and a number of the Horus Heresy plastic kits are Direct Order only, meaning that they’re much more difficult to get without a nearby Games Workshop store or a way to order online from GW(and thus without a discount). After the leaks, speculation ran wild on what this could mean for the Heresy. Many months ago, back in summer and just before the Age of Sigmar marketing push, a few images leaked to the internet that appeared to show what may be the contents of a Horus Heresy box set: Mk6 power armor marines that didn’t match any of the existing resin marines, a new Contemptor dreadnought that looked different from both the plastic and the resin versions, and more. What I felt was lacking on this preview day was any sort of box set reveal for the Horus Heresy. This part of the Warhammer Day reveal was well done. I’m going to preface anything after this by stating that it’s crucial for a legion to have their primarch, and I’m super glad that White Scars players finally have the option to use the Khan in their armies. If I could, I would start a White Scars army based off the primarch alone.
With a pose similar to that of Lion el’Johnson, the Khan strikes a imposing figure. This weekend’s Horus Heresy reveal was the primarch of the White Scars- Jaghatai Khan. This is a Horus Heresy blog(plus occasional orks). Neither of those are relevant for this blog, though.
Warcry will be getting a new box set, as will Kill Team(featuring T’au vs Sisters of Battle). “Warhammer Day” has come and gone, with some fantastic reveals for a lot of Games Workshop games.
