Games Workshop has revealed next week’s pre-orders and it’s packed with Skaven for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar as well as some made to order for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. Check out everything coming soon!

The Skaven are now ascendent and Battletome: Skaven has what you need to bring them to the tabletop. At 128 pages long with an eight-page gatefold section, Battletome: Skaven is packed with lore, and features Battle Traits, Battle Formations, Heroic Traits, Artefacts of Power, and Spell, Prayer, and Manifestation Lores. There are 43 warscrolls covering the vast menagerie of Skaven characters, troops, horrors, and war machines, plus rules for the Gnawfeast Clawpack Spearhead, two Armies of Renown, and two Regiments of Renown. There’s also a “Gamer’s Edition” which contains the same content in a smaller format. The Skaven edition includes 61 rules reference cards which cover all of the essential rules you need to play, as well as cards for your Spearhead force, and both Armies and Regiments of Renown. These are kept in an envelope in the back cover.

Start your Skaven force or expand yours with the Spearhead Skaven set. The Warpspark Clawpack features 25 miniatures, including a classic Grey Seer, leading 3 Stormfiends – fusions of moulder experiments and Skryre tech – a Warp Lightning Cannon, and 20 new Clanrats. Rules for using this Spearhead in the bespoke game mode will be available for free on Warhammer Community.

Vizzik Skour, Prophet of the Horned Rat is the herald of the Great Horned Rat. Leading the Great Grand Gnaw Horde, they infect allies and dissidents alike. A perfect centerpiece for an army.

Krittok Foulblade is deadly in combat with his daemon-blade Doomfang.

Arch-Warlock‘s rule Clan Skyre. They master both technology and sorcery which they conjure with crackling stormcage halberds.

Warlock Galvaneer delivers unpredictable warp lightning. Their warpvolt obliterators channel coruscating ribbons of energy which can fry foes or supercharge allies’ weapon batteries.

Master Moulder are overlords of Clans Moulder. They push the limits of flesh with grotesque results. Their creations are horrors of stitched flesh that bear little resemblance to their original forms.

Acolyte Globadiers hurl their poisoned wind globes at their foes choking them with warpstone-tainted gas.

Warpspark Weapon Battery help thin out the enemy forces while hiding within the seething swarms. This set builds three teams which can be equipped with Warpvolt Scourgers, Ratling Guns, or Warpfire Throwers.

The Warp-Grinder can punch through the skin of reality itself. The weapon makes short work of the toughest armour.

Stormvermin are chosen at birth after showing their worth. They feature discipline and ferocity, unusual among Skaven.

Doom-Flayers are manic machines that has their riders revving their warp-engines into the enemy with devastating results.

The Brood Terror are some of the most abhorrent experiments from Clans Moulders’ horrific experiments. These twin-headed monstrosities lash out with their hooked flails and warpflame scourgers.

There’s also some classic Skaven models returning with Skaven Reinforcements. The Clawlord on Gnaw-beast, Warplock Jezzails, and Rat Ogors are all breaking out from the Skaventide boxed set, available separately for the first time. The Ratling Warpblaster will follow shortly. Thanquol on Boneripper and the Plaguepack are meanwhile getting reboxed.

Finally, Skaven Warscroll Cards and Dice will not only help you keep track of your forces but show off your loyalty.

Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game Made to Order brings a lot of classic figures back for a limited time. The Forces of Good can recruit six Warriors of the Dead, two pairs of Minas Tirith Command, Gandalf the White as he appeared at Minas Tirith, the nine Heroes of the West, and Frodo and Sam in Orc Armour.

Evil armies get a Mordor Troll, Mordor Orc Captains, and a 14-strong Warband of Easterling Warriors. The Fall of the Witch-king set featuring Éowyn, Merriadoc Brandybuck, and the Witch-king of Angmar is also coming.

All of these products are cast in metal, and as Made to Order products they will be available from 10am local time on Saturday September 7th until Monday 8am BST on September 16th.

In Jonathan D. Beer‘s Dominion Genesis, Gryphonne IV was once one of the greatest Forge Worlds, but the inexorable advance of Hive Fleet Leviathan has left a lifeless husk populated by a handful of listless Magi. Explorator Talin Sherax refuses to leave the planet to ruin, and upon learning of a mysterious relic that has the power to restore the world to its peak potential, she sets off on a journey that threatens to draw her over the threshold of heresy.

Temple of Silence by Richard Strachan has the witch-hunting, daemon-slaying ven Densts return from a gruelling mission and seek shelter near the town of Moonhollow. Their welcome is far from warm, but when night falls the true mysteries of its strange priests and the relationship it has with the town of Moonhallow are revealed.
