Attention all Warhammer 40K enthusiasts! Prepare for an epic journey into the heart of chaos as we delve into the latest narrative expansion, The Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant. This maddening vortex is about to get even more chaotic with Huron Blackheart, the notorious Chaos Lord, and his Red Corsairs leading the charge. But here's the kicker: they're not alone in this cursed region. Prince Yriel's Eldritch Raiders are also on the prowl, adding an extra layer of intrigue to this already dangerous space.
The Maelstrom expansion is a treasure trove for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Presented as a beautifully bound set of books, each tome offers new rules, background lore, and an immersive narrative experience. From the Lair of the Tyrant, where Huron's latest raid unfolds, to the Crucible of Champions, where you can create your own unique Warhammer 40K characters, this series has something for every fan.
And that's not all! There's a luxurious Collector's Edition available, featuring alternate cover art, red foil details, and matching red gilt page edges. It's a pirate lord's dream come true!
Now, let's talk about the mighty Huron Blackheart himself. This Chaos Lord is not one to sit back and command from afar. He's taking to the battlefield with a brand new miniature, accompanied by an exceptional command squad. Imagine the fearsome sight of Huron flanked by Garreon the Corpsemaster, Katar Garrix, and the rest of his elite underlings.
But here's where it gets controversial... Huron and his command squad can be fielded as two distinct units, offering strategic flexibility. Huron can join various units solo, while the command squad forms a large unit of specialist warriors, an exclusive club that only Huron can join. It's a deadly combination, especially when leading a Red Corsairs army into close combat.
For those with piratical ambitions, the Battleforce: Lords of the Maelstrom box is a must-have. This expansive set includes new Red Corsairs Raiders, a multi-part Reave-Captain, and a host of other Chaos Space Marine units. It's a perfect addition to any collection, and the best part? All the new kits will be available individually at a later date, so you won't miss out!
And for the Aeldari Corsair fans, the Battleforce: Eldritch Raiders is an exciting prospect. Led by the legendary Prince Yriel of Iyanden, this raiding force includes the enigmatic Void Dreamer Kharseth and the graceful Corsair Skyreavers. It's a powerful addition to any Aeldari army, and like the previous set, all the new kits will be available individually soon.
The Maelstrom is a hotbed of activity, and the Drukhari and Leagues of Votann are not to be left out. The Maelstrom Battalion boxes for both factions offer thematic armies ready for piratical raids. From the Succubus war leader to the Ironkin Steeljacks, these units are perfect for starting new armies or expanding existing forces.
And for those who prefer a more cozy approach to their Warhammer 40K experience, we present the Map of the Imperium Knitted Blanket. Wrap yourself in the warmth of the Imperium Sanctus and Imperium Nihilus, and dream of the vastness of space. It's the perfect companion for those chilly winter nights.
But wait, there's more! We have an exciting lineup of books to keep you entertained. Ghost Legion by Mike Brooks continues the trials of the Alpha Legion, and Death Rider by Rhuairidh James will have you on the edge of your seat. And for Huron Blackheart fans, Mike Brooks' Huron Blackheart: Master of the Maelstrom is a must-read, now available in paperback.
For our French and German-speaking friends, we have two fantastic omnibuses to explore. The Twice-Dead King Omnibus by Nate Crowley delves into the majestic world of the Necrons, offering epic novels, a novella, and short stories that showcase this ancient dynasty from different perspectives. And for Aeldari Corsair fans, Voidscarred by Mike Brooks is a thrilling tale of piracy and adventure, releasing next week in French and German editions.
This week on Warhammer+, we have an exciting lineup of content. Victory Pointers gets tactical, breaking down the Movement phase of Warhammer 40,000.
