Forge World: Pre-Heresy Space Marines

More goodies have been put up for pre-order from Forge World. Any of my thoughts will be in purple italics...

MkIV Maximus Armour Set

This pattern of power armour was developed towards the end of the Great Crusade, using advanced technologies recovered by Astartes forces from scattered Forge Worlds across the Imperium. Despite being intended as the pinnacle of power armour technology, and containing many advanced systems, MkIV armour remains a valued rarity among most Chapters. This intricately sculpted full resin kit, designed by Will Hayes and Phil Stutcinskas, provides enough parts to build 5 Space Marines in MkIV ‘Maximus’ Armour, including two different sets of legs, shoulder pads, arms, torsos and helmets.

These components are fully compatible with the Games Workshop range of plastic Space marine kits. Plastic components shown for illustrative purposes only.

This set is currently available to pre-order for despatch in the week commencing August 23rd.

Umbra Ferrox Bolter Set

Tthe Umbra Ferrox bolter variant was mass-produced by Chapter Techmarines in order to ensure a continuous supply of arms and munitions during the dark days of the Horus Heresy. The Ferrox-pattern weapon exchanges the sickle clip for a box magazine, allowing for a greater ammunition capacity. The weapon features an inbuilt long-range gunsight, incorporating additional Target Reciprocator Systems that mesh with the Autosenses of power armour.

These detailed weapons are perfect for converting Sternguard Veteran Squads, their larger magazines representing the capacity to choose between the various special ammunition types detailed in Codex Space Marines. Or you know just use the larger magazines because they look cool.

The Umbra Ferrox Bolter Pack, designed by Will Hayes and Phil Stutcinskas, contains 10 detailed weapons and optional combat blades, and can be pre-ordered now for despatch in the week commencing August 23rd.
