Dark Angels Legion Praetor in Cataphractii Terminator Armour $41
Praetors were amongst the greatest commanders of their Legions, seasoned by years of war and masters of both front-line combat and tactical command. This kit includes everything you need to build one such Praetor to lead your Dark Angels, with enough ornate detail and beautiful embellishments to make it stand out on the tabletop. Plus, you’ll be able to customise your Praetor with your choice of either a helmeted or bare head.
Bolster your I Legion force with this heroic Praetor in Cataphractii Terminator armour – designed to match the baroque, gothic style of the Dark Angels. Armed with a paragon blade and volkite charger, he’s ready to lead the charge, a voluminous cloak billowing behind him.
The miniature comes supplied with a 40mm Round Base. Rules for Legion Praetors can be found in The Horus Heresy – Legiones Astartes: Age of Darkness Army List. Dark Angels Legion special rules are available in The Horus Heresy Book 6 – Retribution.
Dark Angels Legion Contemptor Dreadnought $59
The Contemptor Dreadnoughts of the Legiones Astartes enabled the mortally injured warriors interred within them to continue to serve their Legions during the Great Crusade, and many fought at the forefront of some of the bloodiest and fiercest battles of the Horus Heresy. A large number were destroyed during those dark times, but some survived and are still in service in the Space Marine Chapters and Chaos Space Marine warbands of the 41st Millennium. This Contemptor Dreadnought bears the knightly heraldry and iconography of the Dark Angels.
The Dark Angels were proud of their status as the First Legion, and this dreadnought is lavishly decorated with iconography and symbols proclaiming their might. The barrel-chested torso is dominated by a massive pair of angel wings, with a choice of either a sword or Dark Angels icon in the center. The left knee is sculpted with a lion rampant brandishing a sword, whilst the sarcophagus features peaked arches and candles to lend a fittingly baroque look. Available to both Warhammer 40,000 and The Horus Heresy armies, the Dark Angels Contemptor has been designed to match the gothic aesthetic of this most mysterious brotherhood in either setting.
Please note that the Contemptor Dreadnought arms pictured are not supplied – the kit is compatible with all Contemptor Dreadnought arm options, which are available separately.
Rules for the Dark Angels Legion Contemptor Dreadnought can be found in The Horus Heresy – Legiones Astartes: Age of Darkness Army List. Dark Angels Legion special rules are available in The Horus Heresy Book 6 – Retribution.
This resin kit comes as 19 components, and is is supplied with a 60mm round base.
