I've been looking forward to the tank crew from Forge World since their sneak preview some time ago. Looks like I know what my first pay check will go towards...
Hi there,
We’ve got an assortment of Space Marine releases for you to pre-order from today: four sets of Chapter-specific MkIIb Land Raider doors and a set of Space Marine Tank Crew, one of which you might recognise from a previous newsletter. We also have two rules updates available to download: one of which covers the Elysian D-99 army list while the other is a more comprehensive update covering a wider selection of our range.
Space Marine Vehicle Crew
The armoured vehicles of the Adeptus Astartes bear names and histories heavy with honour, glory and sacrifice, and each is commanded in battle by peerless warriors to whom armoured warfare is a way of life. These Space Marines, who have an affinity with the ancient spirits of their tanks, will often gain great renown in the honour rolls of their Chapter for crushing the foes of the Imperium beneath their vehicle’s tracks. Hopefully the combi-bolter can be replaced with a storm bolter... be an easier swap if the arms come separate.
Mark Bedford has designed this set of Space Marine Tank Crew, which comprises three detailed figures suitable for use with the full range of Forge World and Games Workshop Space Marine vehicle kits. The set features a wealth of details, including helmed and unhelmed crew wearing MkII ‘Crusade’ armour and a crewman equipped with MkIV ‘Maximus’ armour my favourite of the lot. The Space Marine Tank Crew set is available to pre-order now for despatch from February 24th.
MkIIb Land Raider Door Sets
In addition to the Vehicle Crew, four new sets of doors for the MkIIb Land Raider are also now available for pre-order. Featuring detailed Chapter-specific iconography, we have repackaged elements of our Rhino and Land Raider door sets to contain either Minotaurs, Astral Claws, Raptors or Blood Angels Death Company doors. These sets contain two Rhino-sized side doors and a Land Raider front hatch, and are available to pre-order now for despatch from February 24th. Fingers crossed they bring out Mk2b kits for Black Templars and Imperial Fists.
Imperial Armour Rules Updates
The Forge World writing team have been hard at work compiling a rules update for the various units and upgrades found in some of the older Imperial Armour books, in particular for our Tau Empire range. They’ve also produced an Elysian D-99 update document to bring this characterful veteran force, found in Imperial Armour Volume 4: The Anphelion Project, into line with the more recent Elysian rules from Imperial Armour Volume 8: Raid on Kastorel-Novem.
