GW: Auftragsfertigung und Sororita Statement

Am kommenden Samstag gibt es bei Games Workshop wieder die Möglichkeit, eine Handvoll klassischer Modelle in Auftragsfertigung zu bestellen und es gibt ein Statement zur Situation mit der Armeebox des Adeptus Sororitas.

Pre-order Preview: Inquisitors, Made to Ordo

We all have them – the ones that got away. The models we put off buying for years, only to find out that one day they are gone. The miniatures that’d just perfectly round off a collection that we can no longer find.

Having not quite perfected the art of transdimensional folding (the Cryptek responsible keeps trying to enslave us and start a new Necron dynasty out of Nottingham), we can’t keep every model we’ve ever made on shelves – but we can bring them back with Made to Order!

Next weekend, a host of classic metal models will go back on sale for one week only, give you a chance to own a number of rare and classic miniatures from Warhammer’s past.

First up, with the Adepta Sororitas landing soon, we’re giving you another chance to own Arch-confessor Kyrinov, a preacher whose massive mace is rivalled in ostentation only by his equally massive hat.

He’s perfect for your Ecclesiarchy hobby projects – perhaps you could place him atop a Baneblade, or create a diorama where he’s having a rigorous religious debate with Taddeus the Purifier…

Next, we’ve got Inquisitors – lots and lots of Inquisitors! We know fans have been looking for some of these models for a while, with each featuring cool wargear combos (including the elusive condemnor boltgun) and some classic Imperial aesthetics.

With the latest White Dwarf providing new rules for the Inquisition, it’s the perfect time to stock up on these elite agents of the Emperor.

Feeling radical? We have just the thing for you – and we’re not talking about skateboards, shades and energy drinks. We mean Daemonhosts – those dubiously sanctioned possessed used by unscrupulous Inquisitors in their investigations.

For when you truly need something dead, we’ve got a selection of Assassins on offer. These are ideal if you already own an Execution Force of these peerless killers and fancy starting another one, or just love the original models and want them in your army.

Sisters of Battle: Situation Report

When you all said you wanted plastic Adepta Sororitas, you really meant it!

We’re so excited to see the love you folks have for this new range – everyone here at Games Workshop put a huge amount of creative energy into remaking this faction, and it’s been truly humbling to see your response.

This weekend, we celebrated the redesigned Sisters of Battle with pre-orders of a special launch set, and our healthy supply sold out online in record time.

Even so, we know that there are plenty of folks out there who missed out, and to you, we’d like to say that we are sorry. We produced a huge number of this box, but even our optimistic estimates didn’t anticipate the full scale of the demand.

We’re working on some pretty cool fixes for this kind of thing going forward though. Right now, we’re putting the finishing touches on a new factory next door to our HQ so we can make even more Warhammer models, and we’ve just started work on a massive distribution hub so we’ll be able to stock and ship more Warhammer than ever!

Those fixes are a little way off, but we want to assure you that we’re on it, and you can rest easy knowing that when the full release of the Adepta Sororitas lands in early 2020, there will be plenty to go around.

You do still have a chance to get a hold of the Sisters of Battle Army Set set – your local Warhammer Store will have a limited supply of copies for launch on Friday 29th, and you might find some in your nearest independent retailer too. Make sure to get there early and you may still be able to grab a copy.

Even if you don’t, or there isn’t a Warhammer store near you, don’t lose faith – the Army Box  was only the tip of the blade, the vanguard of a massive Sisters of Battle release that will be here before you know it. While, for now, the contents of the Army Set are specific to that particular box, units from the set will be getting their own multipart release in early 2020.

Here are a few you can look forward to:

Battle Sisters

No Adepta Sororitas army would be complete without a healthy core of Battle Sisters. The multipart kit will be PACKED with extras – weapons, shrines, a cherub, and the option to build squads of elite Celestians (with awesome Celestian helmets) or Dominions (the special weapons teams of the Adepta Sororitas).

Seraphim

The incoming multipart Seraphim combine the dynamic airborne poses you’d expect with a swath of optional extras. Of course, the holy trinity of bolter, flamer and melta is represented, as is a brand-new kit option – the elite combat-specialists of the Zephyrim.

Penitent Engine

And, of course, the Penitent Engine.

The new codex brings new options for this unhinged juggernaut of death, including new combat weapons and a new “shooty” alternative unit – the Mortifier.

The Codex

The new codex itself features all these units and more. For those who do miss out on the Army Set, January is right around the corner, so you’ll be able to pre-order it in no time.

We’ll have more news for the faithful very soon – there’s a Warhammer 40,000 Open Day coming up on the 30th of November, after all…

Warhammer40.000 ist unter anderem bei unserem Partner Fantasywelt erhältlich.
