Warhammer 40K Next Week: Astra Militarum Advance Deployment
Don’t turn around, the Astra Militarum’s new Commisar is in town. Along with several other members of the Imperial Guard.
Next week brings a new wave of Astra Militarum reinforcements to your tabletop. From the grim darkness of the distant future to your friendly local gaming store, these Militarum kits bring new leaders and a combat patrol that will get you right into the action.
All of these, plus a defensive fence, rogh riders, and a new Black Library Celebration miniature that’s sure to be a great diorama piece. Take a look!
Astra Militarum – Combat Patrol, Commisars, And More
First up the new Astra Militarum Combat Patrol box. This box contains 28 miniatures altogether. And this one is all about the Cadians. There’s a five-man Cadian Command Squad, a total of 20 Cadian Shock Troops, and the omnipresent Sentinel they put in every Militarum box whether you want it or not, as well as a two-artillery strong Field Ordnance Battery.
And here to head up the heroism of your new Cadian combat patrol,, a Cadian Castellan, who can help direct your army.
As well as a Cadian Commissar, ready to enforce the strictest discipline, so that morale will improve. And with a new upgrade sprue, you can turn any unit of guard into Cadians, with 87 components all in all. With new heads, arms, torsos, weapons, accessories, and then some, you’ll have the Cadian regiment of your dreams before long.
But it’s not all ironclad discipline and defenders of a destroyed world. There are also horses.
The Attilan Rough Riders are an explosive cavalry unit that wield frag- or melta-tipped lances to destroy whatever you need. Plus they’re the only excuse you need to tell your opponent that you’re just horsing around when you put them on the table. Every. Single. Time.
Or you can play defense with the Aegis Defence Line. This consists of a platform, barricade, and defence line end pieces you can use to set up the line that your Cadians will hold.
Captain Messinius
Finally, the Black Library 2023 Celebration mini. Captain Messinius of the White Consuls. Straight from the Dawn of Fire series, Messinius has a plasma pistol and power fist.
All this, next week!
