Wow. That was quick. Forge World unveiled the next Primarch in their series – Mortarion of the Death Guard – last week and made him available for pre-purchase at last weekend’s Horus Heresy Weekender. Today, the Death Lord went up for pre-order. Previous “Weekender-Exclusive” often did not hit the online store for months. Is it possible […]
Scars is the unabridged audiobook version of the novel of the same name, written by Chris Wraight as his first Horus Heresy. Originally, Scars was published as a “web series” with chapters of the book released one at a time. I couldn’t be bothered at the time. As the title suggests, Scars focuses on the […]

Space Marines Legions Dreadclaw The Dreadclaw is a unique variant of the standard Legiones Astartes Drop Pod that allows for greater mobility for the forces transported as it is able to take off again after landing.

Honour To The Dead is a 75 minute Horus Heresy Audio Drama from Black Library, which ties into the story arc surrounding the Word Bearers attack on the Ultramar plant of Cath. I enjoyed Mark of Calth quite a lot (my Review Part 1 and Part 2), so I thought of this as a great […]

A nice, dynamic (if oddly reminiscent of the recent Forge World Angron’s pose) of a classic 40K villain. #1 – Kharn the Bloody A skilled warrior and duellist, Khârn was a line captain at the […]
