Games Workshop Showcases Latest Offerings in Sunday Preview: “Rising From the Ashes of Faith”
Games Workshop has unveiled its latest Sunday Preview, showcasing exciting releases for their popular Warhammer universes. Titled “Rising From the Ashes of Faith,” this preview offers a glimpse into new additions to Kill Team, Horus Heresy, Made to Order Space Marines, and more.
Leading the preview is Kill Team: Ashes of Faith, a narrative campaign centered around the Imperium of Man’s battle against heretical cults and traitors. The Inquisition’s clandestine warriors take the spotlight as players join them in their quest to purge an entire planet plagued by a malignant Chaos Cult. With 40 miniatures in total, the set includes 23 Chaos Cult models and 17 diverse Inquisitorial Agents. Notably, seven new dual-build miniatures offer players the opportunity to assemble a unique band of talented and eccentric characters. The Ashes of Faith Campaign Rulebook provides all the necessary rules for immersing oneself in this gripping planet-spanning narrative.
In addition to Kill Team, the Horus Heresy receives its first narrative expansion, “Campaigns of The Age of Darkness: The Siege of Cthonia.” This 240-page supplement delves into the catastrophic battle for the Sons of Horus’ homeworld, Cthonia. Players will witness Lord Vheren Ashurhaddon’s relentless pursuit to reclaim the planet for the Warmaster, pitted against the formidable Imperial Fists garrison commanded by Evander Garrius. With extensive lore, campaign rules for key battles, and new options for units and wargear, this expansion promises to captivate fans of the Horus Heresy.
Games Workshop doesn’t stop there, as they bring back classic miniatures through their Made to Order Space Marines. The Primaris Company Champion, previously an exclusive model, returns alongside an assortment of captains, Chapter masters, and commanders. From the stoic Captain Tycho to the enigmatic White Scars Khan on Bike, these revered heroes will be available for order between May 20th and May 29th.
Furthermore, Games Workshop introduces Lord-castellan Evander Garrius and Vheren Ashurhaddon, the masterminds behind the Siege of Cthonia. Evander Garrius, a decorated Imperial Fists veteran with a reputation for brutal methods, will be available in resin, offering the choice of a helmeted or unhelmeted head. Vheren Ashurhaddon, a Luna Wolves warrior who rose through the ranks, leads the True Sons with the mighty Axe Serpentis in hand. Players can customize their Vheren miniature by selecting either a helmeted or unhelmeted head.
Not to be forgotten, the preview includes other notable releases such as the Infernus Abomination, a shape-shifting terror spawned by Traitor Legions during the Horus Heresy. Players can also enhance their Contemptor Dreadnoughts with Legion-themed resin torsos and heads, representing renowned Chapters like the Salamanders, Ultramarines, Word Bearers, Alpha Legion, Raven Guard, and Thousand Sons. For close combat enthusiasts, the Despoiler Squad Upgrade Set offers a variety of lethal melee armaments compatible with several Space Marine kits.
Necromunda enthusiasts will find the Outland Beastmaster with Millisaurs set intriguing, featuring three resin models of deadly creatures under the command of the enigmatic Outland Beastmasters. These resilient beasts, capable of burrowing and combat, add an exotic element to any Necromunda gang.
Last but not least, Games Workshop presents the Black Library Warhammer 40,000 eShorts Week Subscription. This exclusive bundle, available from May 22nd to May 26th
