The Seraphon are coming next week, with some new Terrain and a new Battletome. Alongside that, a whole bunch of new start collecting boxes.

Star dinos are here next week, with the release of the new Seraphon Battletome, a new set of terrain, and more. Let’s take a look at what’s coming next week for pre-order, between the Seraphon, the Daughters of Khaine, and the Gloomspite Gitz there’s a lot to love.

Battletome: Seraphon is an essential guide for fans of these star-faring lizards. This book finally settles the debate: are they funky space ghosts or even funkier reptilian people? The background explores the differences between various groups of Seraphon and gives hobbyists ideas for a range of colour schemes.

A new Battletome means the standard new releases we’ve come to expect, including a swanky new terrain piece, the Realmshaper Engine.

These ziggurats harness mystical energy to reshape reality itself into a form more pleasing to the Slann Starmasters. This is represented in-game by turning terrain features into deadly traps for the enemies of the Seraphon.

The top of the pyramid is dominated by a floating orb of power, surrounded by crackling arcs of energy holding aloft a ring of carved stone. Each side of this piece is reversible, so you can choose to build it as a fresh, clean ziggurat, or one that has begun the process of manifesting the jungle that will eventually surround and reclaim it.

You can garrison this pyramid with your Seraphon – a Wizard or Priest is able to activate the dread device to whip the surrounding terrain features into violent life. It’s a really thematic and entertaining ability that you’ll love unleashing on the tabletop.

In addition to the terrain and the Battletome, there’s a whole host of new Start Collecting Boxes. Including a timely new Skink box:

You’ll get three terradon riders, a dozen skinks, a starpriest, and a bastilodon.

And let’s not forget the Daughters of Khaine, whose box has five Melusai Blood Stalkers and a Bloodwrack Shrine, which also lets you build a Cauldron of Blood, so it comes with the necessary Hag Queen, Slaughter Queen, Avatar of Khaine and Bloodwrack Medusa if you swing that way.

Finally, the Gloomspite Gitz which has ten squigs and a pair of herders, a Loonboss, and three Rockgut Troggoths. But that’s not all, of there’s a store opening near you, there’s another exclusive model–Sergeant Ripper Jackson.

What an awesome model. She comes with boltgun, chainsword, laspistol, a bionic leg, and a dead tyranid as befits a Catachan veteran sergeant.

All this–next week!
