[News] Battle Missions

Incoming! Battle Missions

Coming in March, Battle Missions is a brand-new supplement for Warhammer 40,000 that expands on the basic missions found in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. Each of the thirty-something scenarios detailed in Battle Missions has been designed to allow you to fight the sort of battles normally the subject of Black Library novels. From daring raids and assassinations, to breakthroughs and last stands, Battle Missions will allow your army to play in a way that reflects its background. No matter what Warhammer 40,000 army you collect this exciting new supplement will open up a whole new gaming experience.

Of course it just wouldn't be the same if there weren't some great new miniatures to fight through these missions with. Fortunately, there will be new sets for Space Marines, Orks and the Imperial Guard released alongside Battle Missions in March.

This looks like it could be fun, and in time for a campaign I have been planning for a while down here

Yay for more 'official' missions!

Here are some of the plastic kits that will be released alongside this supplement:

Space Marine Venerable Dreadnought $72
Ork Killa Kans $74
Ork Deff Dread $83
Imperial Guard Chimera $55
Imperial Guard Basilisk $83
Plastic scenery (no real idea what this is yet but probably another imperial fortification....) $41

There is also 6 metal marine releases slated for this time but these could quite easily be for the Blood angels release. Most of the metal releases are retailing for $28 so a good guess would be that these are single minis, possibly the new special characters for BA (including resculpts of old favs such as Mephiston) or maruine objectives/assets for the missions.

The book itself will retail for about $42 and looks very very nice. Without giving too much away the book will make gaming a lot more enjoyable with each army having different objectives (out of a possible 3 for each army)

All that stuff above is awesome news!
