Warhammer 40K Next Week: Heresy Fists And Warhammer+

Next week sees the launch of the new Warhammer+, GW’s new streaming service and alongside it some choice Heresy-era models and weapons.

Everything is streaming these days. TV is streaming. Movies are streaming. Even Dungeons & Dragons is streaming. The number of things that aren’t streaming are rapidly dwindling, especially now that even Warhammer is streaming.

And streaming it is–or will be, with the launch of Warhammer+ next weekend, which promises both TV shows and animations, as well as magazines, novels, and miniatures, all for a reasonable monthly fee.

It is an inevitability. Resistance is futile. One day, perhaps even you too will be a streaming service. Time alone can tell. In the meantime, you may as well get ready for access to the Warhammer Vault, VIP event extras, a free exclusive miniature, new apps, TV shows, and of course, all those animations that have recently seen GW crack down on fanimations of late.

But a bold new streaming service that will deliver you the grim darkness of the distant future in which there’s only war (and tons of miniatures meant to depict it) isn’t the only thing launching next week. For fans of the slightly less distant future, though again, one in which there is only war, Games Workshop is also releasing two new Legion Praetors for the Imperial Fists.

First up, a Legion Praetor in Mk III power armor wielding a power sword, boldly striding forth into battle. But if you prefer your Imperial Fists to be a little more unkillable than they normally are, you can also grab yourself a model decked out in Cataphractii Terminator armor with a Vigil pattern storm shield.

But what if swords aren’t necessarily your thing. Well, you picked the wrong game, despite being named Warhammer 40K, the game is chock full of swords. It’s just lousy with them. Power swords. Force swords. Chainswords.

But if you somehow don’t need another sword in your arsenal, how about extraordinarily powerful gravity weapons? If that’s what you’re looking for, then you’ll want to kit out your troops with some rare and dangerous Graviton Guns, which you’ll find in the conveniently named Space Marine Legion Graviton Gun set:

Packed with ten relics from a bygone era, these guns are capable of destroying organic matter and even the most hardened armor like it was nothing. So load up or be pummeled by fundamental forces of the universe yourself.

All this, next week!
