The new era of Warhammer Age of Sigmar is almost upon us.
Next weekend, you’ll be able to pre-order the first wave of the new edition of Warhammer Age of Sigmar – a collection of new models, exciting expansions, and, of course, the best Warhammer Age of Sigmar boxed set ever. We took a look at these in detail earlier in the week (if you’ve not yet checked it out, it’s well worth a look), and today we have a recap and some juicy additional details for you – plus a quick guide to where you can get more information.
We’ve had loads of questions about price, and we can finally confirm some key details…
Soul Wars will cost the same as it’s Warhammer 40,000 counterpart, Dark Imperium – for two armies, the full Core Book, and much more besides, it’s a steal. Meanwhile, Malign Sorcery will set you back no more than a Start Collecting! set – bringing a new kind of battle magic to your game is going to be simple. Finally, the General’s Handbook will be the same price it’s always been.
There’s loads! Here’s the full list:
- Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Soul Wars Boxed Game
- Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Core Book
- Malign Sorcery
- General’s Handbook 2018
- Combat Gauge
- Scenery Dice
- Command and Status Dice
- Objective Markers
- Wound Counters
- Stormcast Eternals Castigators with Gryph-hound
- Stormcast Eternals Sequitors
- Nighthaunt Glaivewraith Stalkers
- Nighthaunt Myrmourn Banshees
- New Technical paints: Nighthaunt Gloom and Hexwraith Flame
