Sunday Preview – Old World Reinforcements and the Army of the Solar Auxilia

We’ve got a huge Sunday Preview this week, including the Solar Auxilia Battle Group and new miniatures for the Horus Heresy. Then there’s a massive second wave of releases for the Tomb Kings of Khemri and Kingdom of Bretonnia.

Warhammer The Horus Heresy

Solar Auxilia Battle Group

The Solar Auxilia supported the Legions Astartes during the Great Crusade, and when Horus began his insurrection, their forces were split amongst the 18 Legions, getting stuck into the thickest fighting on both sides.

Containing 28 brand-new miniatures, the Solar Auxilia Battle Group brings them to plastic for the first time. A five-man Line Command section consisting of an Auxilia Troop Master and four Auxilia Veterans with a variety of upgrade choices leads a complement of 20 Auxilia armed with las rifles. There’s also a Leman Russ Strike Tank, an Aethon Pattern Heavy Sentinel, and a Dracosan Armoured Transport.

Two Solar Auxilia Infantry transfer sheets and two Solar Auxilia Vehicle transfer sheets featuring over 150 transfers each are provided, while rules for the units can be found in Liber Imperium – The Forces of the Emperor Army Book.

Solar Auxilia Dice

Roll in style when fielding your Solar Auxilia with this set of 20 dice, which include 19 regular six-sided dice featuring a pearlescent grey and black swirl pattern with the Solar Auxilia on the six face, and one scatter dice.

Stormseer Consul

The psykers of the White Scars learned from the ancient traditions of Chogoris, whose shamans were able to predict and control the weather. A synthesis of psychic power and ancient tradition produced the Stormseer Consuls, warriors wielding meteorological might to aid their allies and strike down their foes. This is an expert kit made from Forge World resin, and comes with two head options.

Dark Emissary Consul

Wielding a Staff of Dark Authority, the Dark Emissary Consul is a pair of watchful eyes for the Warmaster Horus, ensuring that allies of the Sons of Horus meet his exacting standards. The Dark Emissary has no compunction as a grim executioner to enforce his master’s will either. This is an expert kit made from Forge World resin.

Apothecarion Detachment

Even the unyielding Legiones Astartes require medical aid on the battlefield, and Apothecaries are responsible for caring for the wounded and delivering final mercy to those beyond saving. Their duty also extends to recovering the gene-seed should an Astartes fall. These two are a single expert kit made from Forge World resin.

Warhammer The Old World

Tomb King on Necrolith Bone Dragon

Necrolith Bone Dragons are ancient skeletal behemoths reanimated by powerful Liche Priests, to carry them into battle. They hew men apart with fossilised claws and turn them into withered corpses with their vile, desiccating breath.

This massive plastic miniature can be built with two different howdahs, one designed for a Mortarch of Nehekhara and the other for a Liche Priest of the Mortuary Cult. If you build this kit with a Liche Priest rider, you can also build a Tomb King on foot.

Nekaph, Emissary of Settra

Settra the Imperishable is a tyrant like no other, and his list of titles and conquests far exceeds that of any mortal man. His immortal Emissary Nekaph arrives before battle and shrieks all of his master’s titles, before joining his liege in battle to lay low his enemies with the Flail of Conquered Kings. This is an expert kit made from Forge World resin.

Tomb Kings of Khemri Returning Plastics 

Swell the ranks of your reanimated armies and take over the Old World in plastic with these returning kits. The Skeleton Warriors box contains 36 miniatures which can either be built as Skeleton Warriors or Skeleton Archers, and includes command retinue options for standard bearers, champions, and musicians.

The Skeleton Horsemen box contains 16 miniatures which can be built as Skeleton Horsemen or Skeleton Horse Archers, plus relevant command units. Finally, the Skeleton Chariots box contains three boney vehicles with options including a champion, a standard bearer, and a musician.

Tomb Kings of Khemri Returning Metals 

Three Tomb Kings units are returning in metal: the special character Prince Apophas, a whip-wielding Necrotect, and a Tomb King on Chariot, which combines a metal miniature with a plastic Chariot.

Tomb Kings of Khemri Resin Remasters

Further classics are returning in Forge World resin with remastered elements. The Tomb Scorpion and Screaming Skull Catapult have both been changed to make them easier to build, with clearer details sculpted onto the catapult. The Carrion also return as a set of three miniatures – two of which were previously available, with one new pose designed to match the originals.

Knights of the Realm on Foot

The Knights of the Realm are minor nobles sworn to protect the fiefdom of their duke. Some prefer to charge into combat on foot, wielding either two-handed halberds or hand weapons and shields. This box builds 20 Knights of the Realm on foot armed with either a halberd or the classic sword-and-shield combo, and enough parts to create two command groups if you prefer two blocks of 10 knights.

Lord with Great Weapon

A genuine hidden gem returns to The Old World – the unreleased Lord with Great Weapon and accompanying Helm Bearer. This is the holy grail of many a collector – if you’ll excuse the pun. Planned as a Games Day exclusive miniature, you can now buy this metal miniature 13 years later.

Knights of the Realm 

Ride out to defend the Kingdom of Bretonnia with these reboxed plastic miniatures. The Knights of the Realm box builds either 12 Knights of the Realm or the impetuous Knights Errant, with enough pieces to create up to two command retinues.

Kingdom of Bretonnia Returning Metals 

Plenty of Kingdom of Bretonnia metal kits are returning in metal. These include the Bretonnian Squires and Squires Command, and Questing Knights and their Command, brandishing two-handed swords.

Two Prophetesses of the Lady are also coming in metal, alongside the Green Knight, the ultimate paragon of virtue, sacred protector of Bretonnia, and one of the best miniatures of all time

White Dwarf

White Dwarf Issue 498

The greatest gaming magazine in the world is back with Combat Patrol rules for Vantarrion’s Voidsmen – a Rogue Trader and her crew – and for games of three and four players. For Kill Team, the Blades of Khaine rules are published, while in Warhammer Age of Sigmar, there are new rules for massive games in Gathering of Might, and Baron Veingulper in Warhammer Quest: Cursed City.
