Since the release of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, battletomes have gone from strength to strength, and Gloomspite Gitz is no exception. This book is packed with sinister (and often hilarious) new lore, fantastic art and a deep set of rules that transform the grots and their monstrous allies into a single, coherent and powerful army.
Starting next weekend, you’ll be able to grab the Battletome in standard or collector’s edition, get Warscroll cards, custom dice–all the accessories you’d expect to accompany a major faction release.
But you’ll also bedown to get your hands on some swanky new gits:
In the new Fanatics kit, you’ll find everything you need to build five Fanatics, with your weapon of choice. Loonsmasha Fanatics wield balls and chains, and can be concealed inside your units during deployment before being unleashed as a deadly surprise for your foes, while Sporesplatta Fanatics shield your grots from shooting with choking clouds of spores.

Squig Hoppers, meanwhile, have been remade in an incredibly customisable plastic kit that offers interchangeable riders, customisable squigs and more. This kit also builds a brand-new Moonclan Grots unit – the Boingrot Bounderz.
If you’re looking to field hordes of Squigs, you’ll be well served by the new Squig Herd kit, which features everything you need to build and customise 10 of them, plus a pair of herders. With your choice of 10 unique faces, interchangeable with various legs, you’ll be able to ensure no two Squigs look alike.
If your army needs a leader, you can’t go wrong with Skragrott the Loonking. As self-proclaimed overlord of the Gloomspite Gitz, he’s a supremely cunning commander and powerful Wizard.
Meanwhile, the Bad Moon Loonshrine is a must-have for anyone starting a Gloomspite Gitz army. Available at no matched play points cost to your army, this icon of the Bad Moon has a chance to return destroyed units of Stabbas and Shootas to the battlefield, representing the unending hordes summoned to battle by the Bad Moon.
On the topic of unending, the new endless spells are another indispensable addition for Gloomspite Gitz players, offering you a new set of summoned sorceries unique to your army. Each endless spell has a host of strange and powerful effects, like Scrapskuttle’s Arachnacauldron, which offers your Wizards greater arcane power while damaging nearby foes. We’re not sure what’s in that cauldron, but our advice is: don’t drink the soup!
And of course let’s not forget the most important squig of all–the dice squig.
The Gloomspite Gits are out next week, get ready for the Age of Squigmar!
