READ IT BECAUSE


The next chapter in Minka Lesk's saga after her battles in Traitor Rock shows us both the horror and glory of the Cadian legacy in a violent galaxy.


THE STORY


The forces of Cadia struggle ever onward, desperate to avenge the destruction of their home world and prove that even in the wake of profound loss, they remain the exemplars of the Astra Militarum.


When Minka Lesk and the Cadian 101st discover a relic of the missing Cadian 8th – thought lost in the planet’s defence – they see an opportunity to right a past wrong, and follow the trail to Telken’s Rest, a world at the core of the Chaos warlord Drakul-zar’s collapsing regime.


But the Imperium are not the only force to pounce upon the carcass of Telken’s Rest, and Minka soon discovers that there are dark secrets hidden amidst the icy sprawl of hab blocks and manufactoria. As the past comes back to haunt them, the Cadian 101st face a choice – will they stand firm and do what needs to be done, or will the spectre of what they have lost lead them astray?

DRUKHARI: SCOURGES

A rich and daring Dark Eldar may surrender himself to the Haemonculi, requesting that his bones be hollowed out, that bands of new muscle be grafted onto his torso, and powerful wings and adrenaline dispensers be attached to his shoulders so that he is capable of true flight. The Kabal overlords pay handsomely for these veteran warriors to fight for them and as a result the Scourges will often equip themselves with the best weaponry and armour that they can find. It is rare for the Scourges to engage the enemy up close, preferring to lay down a withering hail of fire before flying away out of harm's reach.   This multi-part plastic set contains five Dark Eldar Scourges in 80 components, including plenty of weapon upgrades in the form of a shredder, splinter cannon, haywire blaster, heat lance, blaster and a dark lance. There are also several weapon options should you wish to upgrade one of the Scourges into a Solarite to lead the unit. The set includes five 25mm bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

AELDARI: ELDRAD ULTHRAN

Eldrad Ulthran was once chief amongst the Farseers of Ulthwé. Eldrad has lived for over ten thousand years, and has successfully guided his people along the twisting paths of fate since the Fall, and throughout the rise of the Imperium. Time and time again, Eldrad has averted disaster for not only his former craftworld, but the entire Aeldari race, committing acts of heroism hidden within severed strands of fate, regularly offering sage wisdom and tactical aid to those who fight against the overwhelming forces of Chaos that beset the galaxy. This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble Eldrad Ulthran. Standing tall, wielding a beautifully-jeweled witchblade and the Staff of Ulthamar, he wears impressively elaborate armour reflecting his status as high Farseer. Patterns of psycho-receptive wraithbone runes are secreted about the model – Eldrad is said to have devised over a dozen distinct runes. Even his billowing cloak is inscribed with runes, demonstrating his psychic might – as a backup, should his psychic abilities fail, he carries a shuriken pistol also. This kit comes as 13 components, and is supplied with a Citadel 32mm Round base.

SLAVES TO DARKNESS: ETERNUS / LORD ON DAEMONIC MOUNT

Key Features A treacherous and cunning Hero to lead your Slaves to Darkness army A devastating warrior, granted the gift of immortality by Be’lakor Can alternatively be built as a Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount Eternus, The Blade of the First Prince was one of Archaon’s loyal Varanguard – a champion of the Eighth Circle known as Atarus – until he renounced the Everchosen and swore fealty to the Dark Master. Destroyed and reborn by Be'lakor's sorcery, he became Eternus – the chosen agent of the First Prince. The lord of traitors now rides at the head of Be'lakor's legions, crushing rivals in battle and commanding a vast network of spies and agents. Even death cannot halt his machinations, for each time Eternus is slain, he is reborn in a flash of black lightning – a cruel parody of Sigmar's Stormcast Eternals. This multipart plastic kit builds Eternus, Blade of the First Prince – the immortal enforcer of Be'lakor's will. This imposing champion of the Dark Master is mounted atop his rearing daemonic mount, the mighty Drakocephalus, and wields both a rune-marked deathglaive and a gruesome skull flail. His ornate armour is adorned with leering daemonic faces befitting the First Prince's chosen agent, while four pennants hang at his back in a mockery of knightly glory, fluttering in the foul wind of the Cursed Skies. _____ Chaos Lords are living legends who have followed the Path to Glory to the very brink of ascension... or damnation. Those who ride daemonic mounts into battle are especially feared – not just for the unnatural power of their infernal steed, but for the terrible deeds that saw them rewarded with such a beast. These champions rule over thundering cavalry warbands, driving their mounted brethren into battle with roared oaths to the Dark Gods. This multipart plastic kit builds a Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount – a mighty warlord with a steed to surpass any mortal horse. This imposing hero is clad in heavy armour and rich furs, cloak whipping behind them as their mount prepares for a charge. The Chaos Lord bears a Chaos runeshield decorated by a roaring daemonic visage to match their steed's baroque barding, and can be armed with either a cursed warhammer or Chaos lance – the kit also includes a sheathed sword for lance-wielding Chaos Lords, slung across their back for close quarters fighting. _____ This kit comprises 71 plastic components, and is supplied with a Citadel 90x52mm Round Bases. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.

BLOOD BOWL: ELVEN UNION TEAM - THE ELFHEIM EAGLES

The Elfheim Eagles are notable for eschewing the fancy outfits and extravagant parties of Elven teams past in favour of drills, training sessions and even more drills. The fans may have disapproved at first, but after the Elfheim Eagles nudged out Nurgle’s Rotters to win Blood Bowl XX they became known as one of the finest passing play teams to ever grace the pitch.  This multi-part plastic kit contains the components needed to assemble The Elfheim Eagles, an Elven Union Blood Bowl team. The team consists of 6 Linemen (4 of which are actually Linewomen), 2 Blitzers, 2 Throwers and 2 Catchers, each of whom are as impressively-cheekboned and beautiful as you might expect from an Elven team. The heads and shoulder pads are interchangeable between the miniatures, meaning your team can look unique.  There are a host of extras in the kit – 2 turn markers, 2 double-sided score coins and 6 balls, 4 of which are encrusted with opulent gemstones. Supplied with 12 32mm Blood Bowl bases and an Elven Union transfer sheet.
