Horus Heresy Predator, Upgrades & More: FIRST LOOK

There is also the big LoTR box set in this week’s pre-orders as well, but it is a strange MTO where you will get it in December. Just something to keep in mind.

Deimos Pattern Predator Battle Tank

Based on the classicDeimos RhinoSTC, thePredator battle tankis versatile enough to handle anything the Age of Darkness can throw at it. Select from a predator cannon, graviton cannon, Gravis lascannon, or volkite macro-saker as your turret-mounted weapon and heavy bolters, heavy flamers, volkite culverins, or lascannons on your sponsons. With a raft of optional pintle-mounted weaponry on top, you’ll be able to take out any foes.

Pick up this sweet tank for your Horus Heresy legions if you need a little bit extra firepower for fewer points!

Heavy Weapons Upgrade Set – Heavy Flamers, Multi-meltas, and Plasma Cannons

Following theheavy bolters and missile launchersset, you can now upgrade yourMark VI Space Marineswith even more heavy weapon options. Heavy flamers are great for clearing swathes of enemy infantry, multi-meltas are perfect for destroying vehicles, and plasma cannons are ideal for taking out moreheavily-armoured troops.

More weapon options are always good, especially when those help you take out armored targets.

Heavy Weapons Upgrade Set – Volkite Culverins, Lascannons, and Autocannons

Or you can finish off your Legion Heavy Support Squads with these weapons. The lascannon is the definitive weapon for taking out enemy tanks at long range, the autocannon is a flexible gun that can take out lighter vehicles or tougher troops, and the volkite culverin will help you to take out enemy hordes.

Just like above, more weapon options are good!

Liber Mechanicum – Forces of the Omnissiah Army Book

The mechanical might of Mars joins the battle for the galaxy inLiber Mechanicum – Forces of the Omnissiah Army Book, containing the full rules for fielding a variety of Mechanicum-aligned armies.

Gorechosen of Dromm

A new warband enters theNethermazeseeking to desecrate it with blood in the name of Khorne. This is a control-style warband that gains Blood Tithe tokens whenever they cause or take a wound, which they can then spend on unique actions. They come with their ownRivalsdeck, so you can play them straight out of the box, and come with universal cards that can be used by any Warhammer Underworlds warband.

This new Khorne warband might be popular for players as they just previewed the new box set at Nova Open 2022
