Horus Heresy News

  Ok so the Horus heresy big weekend seems to of shed a light on where forge world are going with the Horus Heresy. with the announcement of a Book 2 and a Book 3, Book two is supposed to include Salamanders, Iron hands, Word Bearers, Night Lords, Titan Legion and Legio Cybernetica.And is going to be heavily based on the Isstvan V drop site massacre.  Wile Book 3 is said to include Raven Guard, iron Warriors, Alpha Legion and Imperial Fists. And also covers the Battle of Isstvan V and the Battle of Phall. With Dark angels and White Scars. Making an appearance in Book Seven

 

Also A quick peek at the Nightlords can be found on the Forgeworld website itself. Man i hope they release Konrad Curz, I will actually strip naked and run through the streets shouting "Ave Dominus Nox"

We also have a sneak peek at the Salamanders as well.

No news on if we are actually going to get a Horus model yet, but with the inclusion of the Battlemasters rules in Book One, we can only hope. We may also see an Argel Tal model as well. Aparently this is just going to be the First trilogy of the Horus Heresy. Now I'm hoping that this will eventualy lead to the Siege at the Emperors Palace.

There was a presentation showing some new units thes included the "missing link" tank, half Landraider half Predator.

A new Drop pod, Assault Claw. Arrives by Deep strike But can also take off and fly away again. The size comparison they show with a 28mm figure has this Drop pod looking like a serious heavy weight. It comes with a range of weaponry including a new weapon named the Vortex Melta.

New Mechanicum models for the Legio Cybernetica also featured. The Battle-Automata.

And a New Word Bearers model. Its only Erebus.

All in all it looks to be an exciting, if not very expensive time to be in the hobby.
