The Horus Heresy: Champion der Legion Preview

Aus den Reihen der Space Marine Legionen kommt der Beste unter den Besten, der Champion der Legion um im Großen Bruderkrieg sich den Feinden entgegen zu stellen.

Heresy Thursday – This Loyalist Champion Is Ready to Collect Traitor Heads

Heresy Thursday is back in full swing, and we all know what that means: Space Marines. It wouldn’t be the galaxy’s greatest civil war without Legions of Legiones Astartes crashing into each other and generally making a scene.

The finest blades of each Legion are often elevated to the level of Champions, receiving the finest armour available, and a very nice weapon to show off to all their battle brothers.

These Champions of the Legion are chosen for their martial prowess, and must uphold the honour of their Chapter and Company in battle. They are equipped with their Legion’s finest weapons and armour and put them to use for one simple task – seeking out the foe’s mightiest warriors, and slaying them in glorious duels.

This arsenal includes a paragon blade, a weapon of consummate artistry or perhaps a relic from the Dark Age of Technology. In the case of the Loyalist Champion, that means a massive two-handed sword nearly as tall as a Space Marine, expertly designed to lop heads off.

This resin miniature also comes with a combi-melta – with a choice of a bare head or helmet, both of which sport a laurel wreath which marks him out as a very special boy.

With their character-slaying abilities, Champions make the perfect tool for dealing with enemy Praetors and Consuls. Librarian? According to the Edict of Nikea, you won’t be needing your head. Esoterist? Try and summon daemons with your bonce on the floor. Praetors? Doesn’t matter how fancy your hat is or how thick your armour is, your noggin is still coming right off.

This relentless head-lopper will be available for pre-order in the near future.
