Warhammer Next Week: Gloomspite Gitz And Necromunda’s New Houses
Next week the Gloomspite Gitz come thundering into the Mortal Realms, while the rarer Houses of Necromunda step out.
Next week is a big one for some of the smallest forces in the Mortal Realms. Gloomspite Gitz get a brand new Age of Sigmar army box, and a warand for Warhammer Underworlds. It’s also a banner day for some of the more reclusive houses on Necromunda, with House Ko’iron and Ty showing off some of their new models.
All this, plus the Empire of Man made to order series. So keep an eye out for next week’s pre-order releases. It’s gonna be a big one for little guys.
Gloomspite Gitz
There are two big releases fort he Gloomspite Gitz this coming week. The first is the new army box: the Gloomspite Gitz Gitmob Army Set. This box is a fantastic way to go goblin mode. It not only comes with the new Gloomspite Gitz Battletome (and this is the first place you can get it), it also has a ton of fast-riding cavalry types.
In the box, you’ll find Droggz da Sunchompa, who leads two unit of Snarlpack Cavalry. Backing them up are two Sunsteala Wheelas. Get ready fort he Evil Sun to rise on the Mortal Realms.
Of course, if you prefer a more sunless part of the Mortal Realms – there’s always Warhammer Underworlds. And there, you’ll find a new pack of Gloomspite Gitz in the form of Borgit’s Beastgrabbaz. Deep in the bowels of Embergard, you’ll find Borgit and his Beastgrabbaz – which includes Uglug the Troggoth, a few goblins, and my personal favorite, a pair of grots pretending to be a squig, along with Borgit Wolf-killa, of course.
Necromunda Unveils New Friends And Foes
Two of the lesser-known Houses on Necromunda take the spotlight in a batch of Necromunda releases. First up, House Ko’iron, who have a reputation for being pious followers of the Imperial Creed. Their faith in the Emperor is unquestionable, as long as you don’t go around asing questions like, “why is House Ko’iron working closely with House Cawdor” and “why does a Prima Materis need that much tribue”? The Frateris Bodyguards accompanying for “security” might take issue.
Meanwhile, House Ty, with their reputation for being the most psychically powerful of the Great Houses, exudes an air of mystery and menace with an Onmyodo Coven. Always two there are – working in concert as a “syncretic psychic” consisting of a Telepath and a Null. They’re a powerful ally to anyone, as long as you don’t mind the spying they’re also definitely doing.
You can also get your hands on a Heretek and some evil Servo Skulls, as well as a Cadaver Merchant and ‘Narker. These hangers-on can upgrade any gang with power or money. For a price, of course.
Or you could natch up Madryc Hlbane and Lugrun, two of the Dramatis Personae who work to transport gangs across the Secundan Abyss.
Finally, there’s the Servant of the Silent Ones. And the less said about it, the better.
Empire of Man Made to Order
Finally, there’s a big Empire made-to-order window coming up. You can snag several classic Empire Kits, including: the War Wagon, General of the Empire on Griffon, Commander of the Empire on Pegasus, Commander of the Empire set, Empire Battle Standard Bearer, and Empire Engineers. The mto window is February 1th – 9th.
All this, next week!
