New explorers come to the Blackstone Fortress, new kill team boxed sets, and old friends from Middle Earth are all coming next week from GW.

A slew of new releases expand your favorite games in new ways, with a host of new explorers and cultists for Blackstone Fortress, a big bunch of boxed sets for Kill Team, and a few classic Middle Earth minis make their return for one week only. Let’s dive right on in and check it out.

First up the new expansion for Blackstone Fortress, which introduces four new explorers: a Rogue Trader, a Crusader, a Primaris Psyker, and a Technoarchaeologist, and a servitor retinue character, X-101 who will happily help you throughout the fortress.

These four heroes and their walking machine that was once some helpless citizen in the Imperium, who probably committed some terrible crime like not bribing the local authority enough, are introduced in the Escalation expansion, which also features a Chaos Firebrand Cultist and his lackeys.

As well, Escalation features a quest in which the fate of the entire galaxy hangs in the balance, while letting players explore things like never before:

In Kill Team news, a new boxed starter set pits the Adeptus Astartes against the T’au empire with two complete Kill Teams, the Core Manual, and all the little accessories you’ll need like dice, cards, tokens, and six frames of Sector Mechanicus Scenery.

Finally in Middle-Earth, there’s a chance to grab some old favorites. The new edition of the Strategy Battle Game might have all new expansions, but there’s still a chance to catch up on some old favorites–grab your own made-to-order models for one week only. Here’s a look at everything coming back:
