This Week in Warhammer – Just Before the NOVA Open 2024
Games Workshop has a busy week coming and everyone is anxious to see the new previews at this year’s NOVA. Just before that though, this week in Warhammer, there are new wars breaking out on the Martian front as local factions seek to eliminate each other. Horus Heresy fans are in for a treat this week as a new campaign lands at their doorstep. The campaign brings books and miniatures.
The Warhammer Community post went into more detail.
Next week is the Warhammer Preview Show: NOVA Open 2024, which will have reveals and roadmaps for some of your favourite games. But before that, we’ve got a Sunday Preview packed with releases – the Martian Civil War begins in the Horus Heresy with a new campaign book and standalone plastic miniatures, while the Warriors of Chaos are poised to bring ruin to the Old World with a horde of releases.
Warriors of Chaos Active in This Week in Warhammer
The Martian Civil War takes a central theme this week in the Horus Heresy campaigns. As mankind seeks to wrestle sectors that it has lost from the enemies, a new battle unleashes into full fledge war.
Great swathes of Mars seceded from Imperial rule during the Horus Heresy, and the tireless deluge of machines and weapons pouring from its factories posed a mounting threat to the throneworld as the Warmaster drew ever closer. Loyalist forces attempted to wrest control of the planet on numerous occasions, even as the Tech-priests squabbled among themselves, and these events provide the backdrop for the next supplement for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy, Campaigns of The Age of Darkness: The Martian Civil War.
This 168-page hardback features a selection of background information spanning the length of this unique conflict, and rules for bringing it to life on your tabletop. There are new core missions, apex missions, relic hunt missions, an Onslaught campaign to use them in, plus additional units and Techno-heresy rules to determine the fate of the Red Planet yourself, alongside additional content from previously published Exemplary Battles in the Age of Darkness. This will be available to pre-order next week in hardback and ePub formats.
