Games Workshop Pre-Orders: Soulblight Gravelords Weekend
The Soulblight Gravelords are getting their massive release wave this weekend. The dead don’t rest easy in Age of Sigmar!
If you like your undead to be vampires, skeletons, and zombies then the Soulblight Gravelords are for you! Their new battletome is out as well as a massive range update. There’s new units aplenty to snag from this pre-order. I can’t wait to see what the community does with these new bloodsuckers and barrow warriors of the Deathrattle hordes.
Personally, I’ve always been a fan of the Vampire Cavalry units. I was a big fan of the Blood Dragons from Warhammer Fantasy. So if I had to pick up just one kit from this weekend, I’d probabyl want that Vampire Lord on Nightmare Steed. The new Prince Vhordrai is a close second though! Anyhow, let’s get to the new pre-orders!

Wight King on Skeletal Steed $52
Wight Kings are the most powerful of all the Deathrattle tyrants – undead sovereigns whose domains encompass dozens of barrow kingdoms. They are the embodiment of endless conquest, possessing the willpower to defy all save Nagash and the military might to bring entire continents into their iron grasp.
This multipart plastic kit builds a Wight King mounted on a Skeletal Steed, an immortal conqueror to command your Soulblight Gravelords armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. They bear a sickle-shaped relic weapon and a shield, and are ideal for leading a Deathrattle force into the fray. The kit can alternatively be built as a mighty Wight Lord, wielding a tomb blade and shield, with a different helmet, and horse’s head. At the head of a Deathrattle cavalry charge, they are nigh on unstoppable.
This kit comprises 52 plastic components, and 1x Citadel 80mm Round Base. This miniature requires assembly and is supplied unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
Cursed Sepulchres are drenched in the energies of death – sites of necromantic potential where hundreds or even thousands of souls met their tragic end amidst violence and horror. Such areas are rich pickings for the Soulblight Gravelords. They contain bounteous quantities of desiccated flesh and yellowed bone ready to be transformed into undead soldiery or used to patch up damaged warriors.
This multipart plastic kit builds three faction terrain pieces to make up a Cursed Sepulchre, a focus for the necromantic energy of your Soulblight Gravelords armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. These mournful structures offer benefits to your undead army, bolstering summoning spells, and healing itself whenever blood is spilt on its unhallowed ground.
This kit can alternatively be built as a Nexus of Grief – faction terrain for your Nighthaunt armies.
Whichever variant you choose, it’s easy to customise with four decorative roof components for the buildings with roofs, and two tree trunks, each with an optional extra branch, for the building without a roof.
This kit comprises 42 plastic components. These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
Deathrattle Skeletons clatter forward in formation, their yellowed skulls devoid of expression, intent on annihilating the living. Even if a skeletal warrior is smashed to pieces, the horror continues – with the battlefield steeped in necromantic energies, their bones will lock together once more as it clambers upright, ready to fight again.
This multipart plastic kit builds 20 Deathrattle Skeletons, a horde of infantry for your Soulblight Gravelords armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. Flood the battlefield with these skeletal warriors and bring the curse of Nagash to the living.
They can be assembled as one large unit, or two units of 10 warriors, each with their own optional champion and standard bearer. The champions have a choice of four different weapons, while the other Deathrattle Skeletons can be armed with either spears or jagged swords. The weapons and shields are interchangeable across the miniatures, making it easy to customise your deathless legions. The kit also comes with four tombstone tokens.
This kit comprises 120 plastic components, and 24x Citadel 25mm Round Bases. These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
Barrow Knights, the finest warriors of a Deathrattle kingdom, are granted a prestigious place at the side of their undead monarch. These skeletal cavaliers ride forth to conquer in the name of their liege, and rare are the warriors who can withstand their charge. Even if knocked from the saddle or shattered by cannonfire, these elite riders shall eventually rise again, for the oaths they have sworn will last until the end of time itself.
This multipart plastic kit builds five Barrow Knights, a Deathrattle cavalry unit for your Soulblight Gravelords armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. Mounted on skeletal steeds, they are armed with lances and equipped with shields. These fast, flexible warriors are excellent harassment units, or line-breakers in larger numbers.

The Barrow Guard are a coterie of favoured praetorians, champions, and housecarls that accompany a Wight King. These are the elite footsoldiers of the Deathrattle legions, imbued with memories of loyalties pledged and oaths of eternal service. Some favour the traditional sword and shield of a monarch’s bodyguard, while others swing huge two-handed blades to carve foes in twain.
This multipart plastic kit builds 10 Barrow Guard, elite Deathrattle infantry for your Soulblight Gravelords armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. They are ideal for claiming objectives or acting as bodyguards for your infantry heroes.
The kit includes parts to make an optional champion armed with either a sword and shield or a mace, a standard bearer, and a musician. The helmets are interchangeable across the miniatures, making it easy to customise your unit. The Barrow Guard are equipped with rusted swords and distinctive shields, and they can alternatively be built with heavy two-handed glaives for a more menacing look.

If you want to drain the Mortal Realms dry, this box is the perfect way to start a new Soulblight Gravelords collection – or expand an existing army – and save money compared to buying the kits individually.

Vampire Lord on Nightmare Steed $58

Prince Vhordrai, Lord of the Crimson Keep $195

When released from his cursed fortress to wage war against the living, Vhordrai rides forth atop the undead Draconith known as Shordemaire. This ancient beast spews gouts of pestilential breath that melt flesh and armour, before swooping in low so that its master can drive his Bloodlance through the ribs of any foes still standing.

Armed with the legendary Bloodlance, he is a worthy match for even the strongest opponents, and mounted on his cursed Draconith, Shordemaire, he is capable of keeping up with the faster moving elements of your army, inspiring them to fight even harder in his presence.

Known as the Hollow King, Cado Ezechiar seeks both vengeance and redemption.

Summon macabre magic and watch as the Hand of Nagash reaches from a shadowy portal to crush your enemies.
