Dystopian Wars: November Releases

Slick here again with the latest releases for Spartan Games. Dystopian Wars continues to expand with two more alliance nations receiving some new models. The Kingdom of Denmark and Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth each receive a boxed set featuring some of the existing models mixed in with several new ones as well! As if that were not enough, Spartan Games is seriously expanding its available terrain for the game with two massive sets for Harbours and Airfields. 

Forgeworld: Book Two Massacre, Kor Phaeron and Erebus

The Horus Heresy continues with book two - Massacre - set for release in a few short weeks! From Forgeworld:

Illustrated in full colour, The Horus Heresy Book Two - Massacre contains extensive background information on the dark deeds unleashed by the Traitor Legions upon their Loyalist brothers at the titanic battle of the Isstvan V Dropsite Massacre. Also within this book are detailed the histories of four new Legions which took part: the Iron Hands, Salamanders, Night Lords and Word Bearers, and an extensive campaign system so you can play out their battles on the tabletop. This 290 page book also includes additional entries for the Space Marine Legion Crusade Army list presented in The Horus Heresy Book One – Betrayal, as well as game rules for the Primarchs of the four newly described Legions, super-heavy vehicles and special characters featured in the story. 

In addition, Kor Phaeron and Erebus are set for release at the same time as Massacre:

Erebus was once the High Chaplain of the Word Bearers and venerated the Emperor as a divine being. When the Emperor chastised the Word Bearers for worshipping him, Erebus’ drive for spiritual knowledge led him into the welcoming arms of the Ruinous Powers and through their guidance he planned the downfall of the Emperor and all he had wrought.

Along with Erebus, Kor Phaeron has the ear of his Primarch and, more than any other individual, is responsible for Lorgar’s nature as a seeker after the truth, wherever that may lie and whatever terrible secrets it might reveal.

The latest additions to our Horus Heresy Character Series, Erebus and Kor Phaeron, designed by Edgar Skomorowski, are two multi-part resin kits with two scenic bases that can be combined into a single scenic diorama. Each individual is resplendant with fine details, from the runic script carved upon Erebus' head to the intricate lightning claws of Kor Phaeron's armour.
