FW: Hobbit, Horus Heresy und Blood Bowl
Forge World bringen einen Klassiker zurück ins Programm, mehr Verstärkungen für die Zwerge der Iron Hills, ein neues Buch für die Horus Heresy und der berühmte Oger Starspieler Morg ’N’ Thorg für Blood Bowl.
The Ruined Watchtower of Amon Sûl at Weathertop – 255,00 GBP
At the end of the Third Age Amon Sûl lies in ruins, no longer the grand watchtower it once was. Within its crumbling stone walls are carved the kings of old; their grave features a reminder of the grandeur that this place once possessed, and the fate that had befallen the lands of Arnor across the centuries. It is upon the watchtower of Amon Sûl that the Hobbits of the Shire are confronted by the Black Riders in their bid to reclaim The One Ring, and without the intervention of Strider, it could have provided the final resting place of Frodo Baggins and his companions.
The Ruined Watchtower of Amon Sûl at Weathertop is a large multi-part resin scenery piece – over 16 inches in diameter – and a faithful recreation of an iconic location from The Lord of the Rings™ movie trilogy. Sculpted using original film set plans, it will make a beautiful centrepiece for any collector of Middle-earth™ miniatures. It comprises 14 parts, and comes with a full-colour construction guide. A .pdf scenario covering the events of the Nazgûl attack at Weathertop – A Knife In The Dark – is available to download, and features rules for using this scenery piece in your Points Match games.
Iron Hills Goat Riders – 45,00 GBP
Description
Whilst other Dwarven kingdoms prefer to keep their feet planted firmly on the ground, the Dwarves of the Iron Hills utilise the mountain goats native to their homeland to ride into war. When Dain’s goats hit home, they do so in an avalanche of steel plates and stone-hard horns, shieldwalls are smashed aside and enemy warriors are hurled to the ground like ragdolls, even as the skilled riders plunge razor-edged spears into exposed flesh.The Iron Hills Goat Riders are a cavalry unit for the Erebor Reclaimed and Iron Hills army lists, capable of knocking flat even the most sure-footed foe with their Devastating Charge. The kit comes with three war spears – one for each rider – with the option for one model to exchange this for an included mattock.
Rules for using the Iron Hills Goat Riders can be found in The Hobbit: Motion Picture Trilogy™ There and Back Again.
This is a multi-part resin kit that makes three complete miniatures from 22 components. Three 40mm round bases are included.
Iron Hills Dwarves With Spears – 18,00 GBP
The Dwarves of the Iron Hills will follow their lord without question into battle. Their unbending resolve and will to fight drives them forwards against unassailable odds. Many Dwarves are equipped with huge mattocks or crossbows, whilst others are armed with long spears and broad shields; these Dwarves are highly trained in the art of forming a nigh-impenetrable shieldwall. Just as with Dwarven armour, no weakness is permitted in the army of the Iron Hills, and so the Dwarves of Dain’s army are the finest of their kind.
The Iron Hills Dwarves with Spears are an infantry unit for the Erebor Reclaimed and Iron Hills Dwarf army lists. When modelled without the included shields, they are also perfect for representing dismounted Iron Hills Dwarf Goat Riders. They come armed with a spear and shield each, with an optional mattock for one model – assembled with their shields, they make a great alternative for your shieldwall.
Rules for using the Iron Hills Dwarves with Spears can be found in The Hobbit: Motion Picture Trilogy™ There and Back Again.
This is a multi-part resin kit that makes three complete miniatures from 11 components. Three 25mm round bases are included.
Dain Ironfoot & Goat Rider Warband – 220,00 GBP
Famed and fearsome, the Goat Riders of the Iron Hills are renowned fighters, steely and determined. When led into battle by the Lord of Iron Hills, Dain Ironfoot, the warriors become near unbreakable.
This collection includes Dain Ironfoot: Lord of Iron Hills, and 12 Iron Hills Goat Riders. These resin models make a fantastic addition to any Iron Hills Dwarf Collection.
The Horus Heresy Book Seven – Inferno – 80,00 GBP
The Horus Heresy Book Seven – Inferno is a supplement for Warhammer 40,000 which depicts the cataclysmic battle of the Burning of Prospero, home planet of the Thousand Sons Legion, the near-destruction of that Legion, the fall of its Primarch, Magnus, and the tangled web of fate and treachery which led up to it.
Within the leather-bound, 312-page book, you’ll find detailed background information on the Fall of Prospero, told across six chapters from The Trial of The Sorcerer to The Seeds of Heresy, exploring the bitter struggle to defend Prospero from the merciless punishment meted out by the Imperium’s forces.

Full background for the forces involved is included: on the side of the Imperium you’ll find Space Wolves, Legio Custodes, Sisters of Silence, Servants of the Warmaster and the Ordo Sinister covered in great detail, with the same care and attention placed upon the background of the forces of Prospero: the Thousand Sons, Legio Xestobiax and the Forge World of Zhao Arkhad.

The Horus Heresy Book Seven: Inferno is a complete expansion for the Warhammer 40,000 game – it requires the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook, the Legiones Astartes Crusade Army List and the Mechanicum Taghmata Army List books to use all of its contents.

Each is available for all Space Marine Legion armies.
Morg ’N’ Thorg – 20,00 GBP
A hulking brute of an Ogre Blocker, Morg ’N’ Thorg is something of a lumbering juggernaut. Nearly eight feet tall, bludgeoning his way through the opposition, he’s always a spectacle to watch out for on the pitch. Off the field, his frightening appearance disguises a truly gentle nature, making him a bizarre hit with children – on the pitch, however, he tramples anything that gets in his way, often simply handing the ball to one of his teammates and flinging them into the End Zone to score.
Morg ’N’ Thorg, a truly legendary Blood Bowl player, can be added to any Blood Bowl team (except Undead; he’s really not a fan) with this multi-part resin kit. Particularly large and covered in spikes, with a knowing smirk on his gigantic face, he would be an asset to any Blood Bowl collection. His rules are found on a Star Player card in the Blood Bowl boxed set, and in Death Zone Season 1.
This kit comes in 30 components and includes 2 32mm round bases, one featuring a hole to slot a ball into, indicating possession of the ball in your games of Blood Bowl.
Blood Bowl & Morg ’N’ Thorg – 85,00 GBP
Get your hands on a copy of Blood Bowl, the classic game of bone-crunching fantasy football, and Morg ‘N’ Thorg – the hulking brute of an Ogre whose exceptional skills as a Blocker are available to all teams (except Undead, he doesn’t like those.)

– 12 plastic Human players: 2 Blitzers, 2 Throwers, 2 Catchers and 6 Linemen;

– 2 sets of dice, coloured blue for the Humans and green (of course!) for the Orcs – a mix of D6 Block dice, ordinary D6’s, D8’s and D16’s;
– a 56-page rulebook – this contains the basic rules of Blood Bowl, a number of optional extra rules (Fan Support, different weather, Illegal Procedures, time limits, hand-overs, block assists and more), a guide to assembling your teams and the story of Blood Bowl’s origins;
– a range ruler (used for measuring distances when throwing the ball), scatter template (used to see where the ball careens off to when dropped) and throw-in template;
– a sheet of decals containing number and team symbols, and a list of player positions that can be applied to the edge of your models’ bases.Morg ‘N’ Thorg can be added to either team in the box – his rules are found as an included Star Player card. He comes in 30 resin components, and includes 2 32mm round bases, one featuring a hole to slot a ball into, indicating possession of the ball.
Blood Bowl Star Player Collection – 56,00 GBP
Due to exceptionally high demand for The Mighty Zug it may take longer than normal for us to send him out to you. Currently it may take up to 2 weeks to despatch this product.
Collecting together three splendid Blood Bowl Star Player releases, this bundle is a quick and easy way to pick up these legends of the pitch.
Morg ‘N’ Thorg, the hulking Ogre Blocker who’s willing to play for any team (as long as they’re not Undead…), is a cheerfully brutish miniature covered in vicious spikes. He comes in 30 resin components.
Varag Ghoul-Chewer, the strangely thoughtful Blitzer who can be added to any Orc army, is an especially mean-looking chap clutching a Squig and covered in chunky armour. He comes in 10 resin components.
The Mighty Zug, legendary Human Star Player, is a hefty chunk of meaty strength, with his brutish demeanour and enormous arms. He comes in 7 resin components.
The bundle includes 6 32mm round bases, three featuring a hole to slot a ball into, indicating possession of the ball in your games of Blood Bowl. Rules for each of the Star Players can be found as cards in the Blood Bowl boxed game, and in Death Zone Season 1.

Wenn nicht das Pfund durch diesen Brexit-Unsinn eine erhebliche Talfahrt hinlegt, bleiben die Sachen wohl leider weiter unerschwinglich für mich. Schade, denn die Preise für 40K von Forgeworld finde ich im Gegenteil nicht so schlimm…
Na da kannste doch beruhigt sein, die „Unsinn“ Schreier wussten doch schon Monate vor dem Brexit, dass das alles ganz fürchterlich für GB wird und das Pfund daraufhin eine noch nie dagewesene Talfahrt hinlegen wird. Übrigens genau wie in den USA…
Aber es gibt Hoffnung, vielleicht kann man ja mittelfristig bei FW wieder Resin gegen ne harte Mark erwerben, wer weiss 😉
Puh das HdR Geländestück ist ja mal arg teuer (wars auch vorher schon, ich weiß 😉 da wäre Plastikruinen von GW doch um einiges Kundenfreundlicher.
Das Buch ist bestimmt cool – aber mittlerweile sind ja soviele, dass man ein halbes Vermögen raushauen muss, wenn man die Sammeln will.
Morg überzeugt mich nicht so wirklich. Hält der den Ball mit spizten Fingern? Das sieht merkwürdig aus. Mal schauen, ob sie noch Large Monster für die Team rausbringen.
„Large Monster“….? Du hast Dich noch nicht so mit Blood Bowl beschäftigt, oder?
Grösser als Baummnesch, Troll, Oger und Minotaur wird es glaub nicht.
Wow. Ich dachte um die Uhrzeit bringt mich Nichts mehr zum lachen, aber 255 Pfund für ein kleines Geländestück ? Das ist ein Witz. Das mache ich mir selbst oder ruf beim TWS an. Da fehlen einem echt die Worte. Einfach unverschämt (und von FW scheinbar schlecht geplant). Das ist ja schlimmer als die Age of Sigmar Platten die der Top 1 Ladenhüter in den GW-Shops sind 🙂
Ich gebe meinem Vorredner Bort da Recht. unproportional teuer und nach meinem Geschmack sogar hässlicher. Das sind keine Figuren, die ich mir jemals kaufen würde.
Ich glaube die Wetterspitze war damals schon so absurd teuer…
Fairerweise muss man dazu sagen dass sie aber auch alles andere als „klein“ ist 😉
Also abgesehen von „The Mighty Zug“ gefallen mir bei allen Starspielern die alten Modelle um Längen besser – Schade
Hat Forge World mal wieder die Preise angezogen, oder kommen nur mir die Hobbit Zwerge etwas teuer vor?
Schöne Modelle sind es aber, besser als die damaligen Hobbit Figuren von GW…
Hm, Morg gefällt mir auch nicht wirklich, schade. Gerade das Gesicht find ich doof.
Morg ist nicht so der Bringer, aber vielleicht liegt es an der Bemalung.
Die Wetterspitze ist schon cool, liegt nur vollkommen über meinen Möglichkeiten.
Die Zwerge sind gut.
HH Inferno reizt mich sehr ! Aber … ist schon etwas teuer. Hab gerade mal umgerechnet, das sind 93,55 Euro für das Buch. Das ist schon übel.
Schick sind sie ja, aber dass drei Zwerge mit Speer in besonderer Pose halb so viel kosten wie 12 Zwerge mit Speer in normaler Pose die auch schon alles andere als günstig sind… puh… Die Widderreiter dagegen gehen gerade noch so, sind aber eigentlich auch schon zu teuer, v.a. wenn man das saftige Britenporto noch draufrechnet. Da habe ich ohnehin noch nicht verstanden, warum ich mir einzelne HDR Blister aus England(!) von Forgeworld kostenfrei in einen Laden liefern lassen kann, aber die Hobbitsachen kosten Versand? Kurios. Oder liege ich falsch?
Ach Forge World … Was soll man dazu noch sagen. Ich mach es trotzdem. 😁
Die Zwerge sind sicher gut gemacht, aber das Filmdesign ist absolut nicht mein Fall. Die Ziegenreiter haben aber schon was witziges. 😃
Die Wetterspitze finde ich toll, aber keine 300 € toll und Blood Bowl ist weiterhin eine Enttäuschung für mich.
Alles in allem nicht mein Fall.
65€ für 3 Blood Bowl Starspieler und dazu noch X Euro FW Specialversand? Nö! Dann schaue ich mich bei anderen Anbietern um…Dafür bekomme ich ja n 2. Blood Bowl Spiel oder 3 zusätzliche Teamboxen…
Die meisten Modelle sehen wirklich gut aus, speziell die HDR Sachen sind allerdings Apothekenware, die wirklich gut aussehende Wetterspitze führt dann aber in die absolute Privatinsolvenz.
Für den normalen Pöbel empfehle ich die „Wetterspitze“ von Ziterdes. Die ist auch sehr schön.

Die Widderreiter sind klasse , nur sauteuer ;(
Eigentlich sind Widderreiter und Zwerg auf Schwein nicht so beliebt und ein wenig albern…
…im Film haben beide Elemente meiner Frau und mir trotzdem sehr gut gefallen. Der Preis ist allerdings zum träumen und weinen, weniger zum kaufen.
