Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness: the next year!

Absolutely thrilled to see that new plastic Space Marine squads are in the works 😃

A MKVI Assault Squad and MKIII Tactical / Support Squad are revealed. So much potential revealed in these two images!

#Warmongers #HorusHeresy ImageImage
The MKVI Assault Squad has a new design Warhawk Jump Pack along with a redesigned torso rig and harness for the flight unit.

A combat shield is shown, the first time a generic heresy kit will feature this gear.

The MKIIIs appear to be compatible with Support and Heavy weapons. ImageImage
The Deredeo Dreadnought is also to be converted to a plastic kit - can't wait to see this 👍

And yes, that's a plastic model in the picture - the Anvilus Autocannons have been reverted to the original design, removing the support bracket add to counter barrel warping. Image
Two new Astartes officers have been revealed: Vheren Ashurhaddon of the Sons of Horus and Lord-castellan Evander Garrius of the Imperial Fists.

I like both of these, and the tie-in with the upcoming Siege of Cthonia campaign feels like a good formula for future game development. ImageImage
Cerastus Knight-Lancer: in plastic!

This is a brilliant design, and to see it come in plastic will be a dream come true for many collectors and gamers. The resin original is a superb model, but the cost and medium are a barrier for many.

More Cerastus in plastic in future? Image
All of these new models have been tied together in a new Horus Heresy road map for 23-24.

Great to see this @warhammer it makes such a difference to know the development path of our favourite game of demi-god rebellion 👏

Mystery army is very tantalising - Ruinstorm Daemons? Image
Oh and finally.... Epic is making a return!

I feel this is going to be big, in a tiny sort of way.

Overall a great set of heresy reveals and I'm very excited for to see these over the coming year 🙂 Image

Warhammer Fest 2023: single day ticket holder review.

Returning after a pause since 2019, Games Workshop's signature event has returned and I went along as a non-gaming, non Golden Demon entrant.

Here are my thoughts on the day.

#Warmongers #warhammerfest2023 #WarhammerFest Image
Entry price: £20

Venue: Manchester Central.

Onsite parking: limited (620)
Various other parking located around the city centre.

Visitors ~8,000

Opening hours: 08:00 to 19:00

@warhammer sent out an email on Friday at 20:40 containing the wrong opening time (10:00) Image
Impressions on arrival: upon entering the venue, I was confronted by a massively busy hall with few visual clues as to what is happening where.

No programme or event goodie bag was provided. I found this disappointing given the high ticket price and previous Fest offerings. Image
