GW says all of these kits go up for preorder on January 18, and have a street date of February 1.
Boreas Pattern Deredeo Dreadnought $85 €67.50 £52.50
“The Deredeo is the largest and toughest Dreadnought in the arsenal of the Legiones Astartes. A beast of war, it fields the heaviest weaponry to reap a heavy toll. We’ve already seen the Anvilus pattern, which mounts Aiolos missile launchers and Anvilus autocannon batteries or Hellfire plasma cannonades. Now the Boreas pattern marches out, decked out in Boreas air defence missiles, with a choice of volkite Falconets or Arachnus heavy lascannon batteries.”
Valdor Tank Destroyer $90 €70 £55
“Got a Malcador problem? Time to call in the Valdor, a heavy tank destroyer named for the legendary Emperor’s guard, Constantin Valdor, and deployed in small numbers by the Solar Auxilia. This particular model mounts a devastating neutron laser which will burst even the heaviest tanks like a soap bubble. This plastic kit comes with numerous pintle and sponson weapon options, and an array of other upgrades, plus a 180-piece Solar Auxilia vehicle transfer sheet.”
Malacador Infernus $100 €85 £65
“The Malcador Infernus is a Solar Auxilia flamethrower tank with a fuel trailer towed behind it. The massive gout of flames launched from its inferno gun will clear out infantry, light armour and minefields alike, even those protected by the heaviest cover. This plastic kit has numerous choices for sponson and pintle weapons, as well as other optional upgrades, and comes with a 180-piece Solar Auxilia vehicle transfer sheet.”

Arvus Lighter $80 €62.50 £47.50
“The most aerodynamic aircraft in the Imperial arsenal arrives in plastic at long last. The iconic Arvus Lighter can carry up to 12 troops, delivering them via Deep Strike to anywhere on the battlefield and providing covering fire from an optional crew-operated multilaser (the rules for which will appear in a free PDF at release). This kit has been lovingly designed from the ground upwards, the perfect transport for your favourite Solar Auxilia squad. It also comes with a 149-piece Division Aeronautica transfer sheet.”
Empire State Troops $85 €67.50 £52.50
Empire Flagellants $80 €62.50 £47.50
Empire Greatswords $85 €67.50 £52.50
“Three flavours of infantry abound for the Empire of Man: regular, skilful and crazed. The first are a block of 30 redoubtable State Troops, professional soldiers equally capable with halberds, spears or the old sword’n’board – for extra hitting power, the ability to fight in two ranks or additional armour, respectively. The kit contains enough parts to make up to three command groups and comes with a 290-piece transfer sheet. The Greatswords, meanwhile, are a cut above, fighting with lethal two-handed swords and full plate armour. The set contains 20 troops with enough kit to build two full command groups, plus 290 transfers. Finally, what the Flagellants lack in armour or skill at arms, they more than make up for with the Frenzy special rule and brutal two-handed flails. As well as 290 transfers, you get 30 Flagellants and enough parts to build up to three Standard Bearers and three hot-headed Prophets of Doom.”
Empire State Missile Troops $85 €67.50 £52.50
Empire Archers $62.50 €51.25 £40
“Ranged support comes in two flavours for the Empire: State Missile Troops and Archers. The former is a box of 30 drilled professional soldiers who can be armed with crossbows or handguns, for extra range or armour penetration. There are enough parts in the box to build three full command groups, and the Sergeants can be equipped with Hochland Longrifles and powder monkeys. Archers are scouts and skirmishers – 20 skilled bowmen who can move up the field and pepper the advancing foe, redeploying with a nimbleness the State Troops lack. The Archers have enough parts to build two unit champions, while the State Troops also receive a 290-piece transfer sheet.”
Helblaster / Helstorm Battery $58 €44 £36
“The Helstorm Rocket Battery may also be built as a Helblaster Volley Gun, both devastating heavy artillery pieces designed to ruin an oncoming enemy attack with weight of fire. The former can bombard the field with blast markers, while the latter can put out up to 30 shots a volley – though admittedly not without a high chance of exploding… Can’t decide? This box comes with two to build how you please, as well as six crewmen and some optional battlefield accessories.”
