GW has pulled the covers off a tidal wave of new Leagues of Votann minis, and an all new Army Set headed our way! Take a look.

The Leagues of Votann are almost here!  How close… well take a look and see for yourself. We have had a slow steady drip, drip, drip of lore, rules, and minis over the last few months. It’s all been leading up to this NOVA reveal seminar. Let’s get started. first up a video:

The Leagues of Votann Minis

The seminar showed 6 new minis including the massive Hekaton Land Fortress.

Hekaton Land Fortress

The Hekaton Land Fortress is the Kin’s signature combat vehicle. This chunky Heavy Support tank packs overwhelming firepower onto a rugged frame, and can lug around a hefty 12 models. This beast can go toe-to-toe with some of the biggest and best battle tanks in the 41st Millennium thanks to its durable void armour. It can be equipped with a variety of hefty weapons and devastating warheads – from the very nasty heavy magna-rail cannon to the SP heavy conversion beamer.

Ûthar the Destined

The most accomplished hero of the Greater Thurian League, Kâhl Ûthar the Destined is a ruthless warrior armed with masterfully wrought weapons, including the legendary Blade of the Ancestors. With a gift for assessing enemy foes, he ensures that the Kinhosts he leads strikes with swift and brutal precision.

Einhyr Champion

Those who climb the ranks of the Einhyr may one day become Champions. These noble warriors are clad in modified exo-armour fitted with mass-drivers and armed with vicious close combat weapons. They function as living battering rams, pulverising anything that gets in their way.

Brôkhyr Iron-Master

The Brôkhyr are the Leagues’ highly skilled techno-artificers, and the Iron-masters are the cream of the crop. They head into battle with a dutiful Ironkin assistant and a knack for repairing even the most beaten-up vehicles. Helping them are a gaggle of E-COGs – hardy combat and repair drones, lacking the intellect of a true Ironkin.

Grymnyr

The mighty Ancestors guide the Leagues of Votann with their inscrutable wisdom. The primary conduits between Kin and Votann are the Grimnyr, Kin blessed with psychic powers from a rare and important cloneskein.  These Living Ancestors are the closest you’ll usually find to priests amongst the largely secular Leagues, and use barrier tech to help them harness the raw power of the immaterium in battle – such as the two mechanical CORVs that hover alongside them.

Cthonian Beserk Mole Grenade Launcher

The Cthonian Beserks reveal the ace up their metaphorical sleeve with the mole grenade launcher. This repurposed mining equipment delivers subterranean explosives into the midst of enemy units, even if they’re cowering out of sight.

League of Votann Army Set

As you would expect, GW will be leading the way of the new faction release with an Army Set. We have seen this tried and true model before (looking at you Adepta Sororitas).  So you should expect the box with minis and the Codex, followed several weeks later by the full a la carte releases.

Army Set Contents

The first wave of Kin includes Ûthar the Destined – who you can also build as a Kâhl – a formidable Einhyr Champion, three nippy Hernkyn Pioneers, and 20 Hearthkyn Warriors who can be taken as two squads of 10 to fill out a Patrol Detachment. It’s the first place to acquire the 104-page Codex: Leagues of Votann – with an exclusive cover no less – alongside a pack of 50 datacards and two transfer sheets filled with the symbols and logos of the major Leagues. Everything in this set will be available separately later – except that exclusive codex cover.

The Squats have been gone so, very, very long… I can hardly believe their return all coming true in September!
