The Death Korps of Krieg are finally here in full force. Get your new plastic kits on pre-order this weekend.
It’s finally time for the plastic Death Korps of Krieg armies to get their day on the tabletop. Last month we got their Army Set but that was just the tip of the spear. Now, everything is finally out and you can pre-order it all right now. Personally, I’m still a fan of the Artillery Team kit. That’s one of the more cinematic kits out there. With all the different weapon options you can really go nuts with it!

Crusade: Nachmund Gauntlet $60
The Invasion Begins
The Nachmund Gauntlet is the largest and most stable of the known routes across the Great Rift. Once a lifeline to deliver reinforcements to those cut off from Holy Terra, it is now a channel through which the destructive treachery of the Traitor Legions can flow from the Imperium Nihilus. The forces of Abaddon the Despoiler have bludgeoned their way through the Nachmund Gauntlet, with his herald – Haarken Worldclaimer – at their speartip. Only the hastily defended Sanctus Wall of loyal systems stand poised to resist, already weakened by heretical agents. On the fortified world of Sangua Terra, grand strategies of conquest and defiance are entwined with bold heroism and darkest betrayal.
This 120-page hardback book is a Crusade expansion for Warhammer 40,000. It captures the rich narrative of the battle for the Nachmund Gauntlet as Haarken Worldclaimer unveils his grand strategies of conquest and defiance. The book also includes the rules to play narrative games, build and upgrade a Crusade army between battles, and run your own campaigns.

CRUSADE RULES
The rules you will need to take your army on a Crusade across the stars.
