Warhammer 40K Hot story icon

We tried to stay quiet but the dead don’t rest easy. It’s Wake the Dead from Games Workshop plus the Ancient Ones rise along with the youngest race in the galaxy – It’s Necrons and T’au Kill Team Starters!

via Games Workshop

Wake the Dead $150

The proud Aeldari of Saim-Hann once sought to assist Humanity in the defence of Vigilus – a world beset on all sides by unceasing, brutal conflict – but an act of xenophobic slaughter by soldiers of the Imperium has turned ally to foe, and the warriors of the Wild Host have sworn a blood oath to exact vengeance. No-one can prevent them – no-one except, perhaps, the Ultramarines. These superhuman, gene-forged warriors are Humanity’s greatest champions, peerless masters of strategy who have defended the Imperium for millennia. With bolt and blade they assert the sovereignty of Vigilus.
