That’s right folks, the last entry in the roiling maelstrom that is Psychic Awakening is here.

Since the Great Rift opened, the galaxy has been engulfed in unnatural phenomena and ferocious warfare, and psychic mutation is rife across the Imperium. Humanity’s response has been the Indomitus Crusade, which now reaches the mysterious Pariah Nexus. It’s a mysterious area of calm in a tumultuous galaxy, and here, the Necrons have begun their own plan to reclaim the galaxy and fend off the storms of growing psychic energy.

Pariah includes the details of Humanity’s horrific battles within the Pariah Nexus, along with new missions to let you recreate the key battles of the war. There are rules for using the Inquisition in Warhammer 40,000 including datasheets, Stratagems, Warlord Traits, the Telethesia psychic discipline, and now it’s easier than ever for them to join Imperium forces. You’ll also get access to new Theatres of War rules. These recreate conflicts from the Psychic Awakening series that let you fight everywhere from perilous jungles to devoured worlds.

Pariah comes in a lavish collector’s edition, featuring a luxury soft-touch cover and four short stories first seen on the Warhammer Community website. The final chapter of the Psychic Awakening saga also comes in a standard hardback and ePub version.

Of course that’s not all that’s releasing this weekend. Accompanying this new book are four incredibly detailed models. First up, for the Necrons, Illuminor Szeras, who is at the center of this conflict:

Then there’s Lord-Inquisitor Kyria Draxus, whose heretical knack for using xenos technology, like the shuriken catapult she wields, as well as a curious psychically bonded creature known as a Wyvach:

And finally Ephrael Stern and Kyganil, a pair of warriors who wander the galaxy. Stern was once a Seraphim, Kyganil was once a Harlequin, now the two of them travel the galaxy fighting Chaos wherever they find it. We need more of these folks!

Anyway that’s what’s coming to you next weekend!
