It’s a Warhammer 40,000 heavy pre-order weekend as Games Workshop has kicked off 2026 with the launch of its 500 Worlds storyline. Along with a new campaign book, there’s also new miniatures in Captain Titus for the Ultramarines, the Nekrosor Ammentar and C’tan Shard of the Nightbringer for Necrons and more. See what you’ll be able to pre-order on January 10.
After facing many difficult challenges, Demetrian Titus has been awarded the position of Captain of the Ultramarines 2nd Company (again), and now finds himself in the middle of a seemingly impossible task – though there is nowhere he would rather be than in the midst of bloody battle.
Captain Titus and The Wardens of Ultramar contains Captain Titus, Veteran Sergeant Metaurus and Ancient Gadriel, as well as Lucia Vestha, a plenipotentiary of Ultramar; the Astropath Dainal Kornelius; Gaius Silva, veteran commodore of the Ultramar Defence Fleet; and Aemelia Minervas, a Legatus in the Ultramar Defence Auxilia and commander of the 30th Macragge Defence Auxilia, who are attached to Captain Titus’ fleet. There are two head options for both the Astropath Kornelius and Veteran Sergeant Metaurus.
The Nekrosor Ammentar is so horrifying even the otherwise implacable Necrons fear it, Nekrosor Ammentar is a locus for a murderous psychosis that enraptures Necrons. Over many centuries its form has become more and more tailored to destroying organic life, forcing Crypteks to outfit it with bladed limbs, a serpentine tail, enmitic projectors that allow it to tunnel through battlefields, and the devastating unmaker gauntlet. Despite its twisted form, Nekrosor Ammentar retains a fierce intelligence and has amassed a huge following, many inflicted with the Destroyer curse, others allying themselves with the terror for their own purposes. Its true motives unknown, Nekrosor Ammentar is now invading the region of space known by the Imperium as Ultramar. This miniature will receive a datasheet via Warhammer Community.
Once a sadistic god with the power to unmake the stars, the Nightbringer was shattered by the Necrons and the remaining fragments have been enslaved. The C’tan Shard of the Nightbringer is one of these imprisoned fragments, unleashed by the Necron dynasties upon enemies they want to humble in obliteration. A constantly shifting, living metal necrodermis assumes the form of a robed figure of death, armed with a scythe that flows out of its morbid form. With a single sweep of this blade it can cut down swathes of lesser foes, draining the life from opponents with a glance that does a cool D6+3 damage. Updated rules for this miniature will be released here on Warhammer Community.
500 Worlds: Titus – The Battle for Unity Begins kicks off a new campaign storyline for Warhammer 40,000. Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines has commanded Captain Demetrian Titus to reclaim the Five Hundred Worlds of Ultramar.

As the battle rages, treachery comes from within in the form of the scheming ethereal Aun’Va, and more challenges await Farsight and his allies.

Leontus: Lord Solar by Rob Young gets a French Edition. It’ll be available as eBook and in paperback. Above Fortuna Minor an Imperial fleet in orbit is in full retreat, their deployment undone by orkish cunning, as a savior pod races to the surface. Those lucky enough to have made planetfall find the world overrun by Speed Waaagh!s, its population enslaved to build weaponised effigies of the orks’ foul gods. Out from the saviour pod steps Arcadian Leontus, Lord Commander of the Segmentum Solar, peerless tactician and mastermind of countless victories. Even stripped of his armies, Leontus has no intention to merely survive this war. He intends to win it.

She has been offered a single chance to restore her honour and reclaim her standing, one that involves the death of an entire world.
Dropsite Massacre by John French gets a German Edition and will be available as an eBook and in paperback.

It’s a Warhammer 40K heavy pre-order weekend coming up as Games Workshop begins to release the wave of Ultramarines recently revealed.
Crush the enemy with a force entirely built of the toughest, strongest, most experienced Space Marines around – the mighty Terminators. Battleforce: Crux Terminatus is the first place to get the brand new Assault Terminators, which come with enough options to build two sets of five with either thunder hammers and storm shields,or a pair of lethal lightning claws – making ten Assault Terminators in total.
Alongside this unstoppable wall of ceramite you also get the new Ancient in Terminator Armour miniature, who flies an impressive standard, a multi-part Terminator Captain, a Terminator Chaplain, and five regular multi-part Terminators.
You also get a new Space Marines Terminator transfer sheet, containing 579 transfers. This box will be available only while stocks last.
The greatest Ultramarine besides the Primarch himself, Marneus Calgar is equally potent a warrior on the battlefield as he is a leader in the command bunker. While he often deploys in an artificer-crafted suit of Gravis armour, he has also been known to still wear the ancient Armour of Antilochus. This relic Terminator armour suit incorporates the Gauntlets of Ultramar – and Calgar operates it with enough agility that he can join almost any infantry squad the Ultramarines choose to field in battle.
No longer leading the Second Company, Cato Sicarius has taken up perhaps an even more prestigious role – the commander of the Ultramarines’ honoured Victrix Guard. His skill with his trusted Talassarian tempest blade lets him fight in three distinct ways during close combat, each one tailored for a different kind of enemy, be they hordes of chaff or deadly champions. This multi-part plastic miniature comes with two head options – one shouting, and one stoically observing the battlefield.
Defend your heroes and champions with the legendary Victrix Honour Guard, a band of veteran Ultramarines chosen to safeguard the Chapter’s officers with their lives in the heat of battle. Each kit builds three Victrix Guard with interchangeable heads, arms and greaves, with the option of building one as a Chapter Champion armed with blades of honour, and one as a Chapter Ancient carrying a massive Banner of Macragge. Victrix Guard can be deployed as a unit of six, and as such two boxes will contain enough parts to build either six regular squad members or four – with unique combinations of leg and arm poses – plus the Chapter Champion and Chapter Ancient.

Finish off your Ultramarines expeditionary force with the Ultramarines Dice Set, approved by the Lord Commander himself. You get 16 six-sided dice cast in pearlised blue plastic with gold ink pips and the symbol of the Ultramarines on the six face – perfect for defending Ultramar alongside Marneus, Cato, and the gang.
Lead your kabals on a vicious realspace raid with the new multi-part plastic Archon, bristling with options to customize your merciless commander. Each kit comes with two torso options, two collars, a choice of blast pistol, splinter pistol or iconic soul trap for your right arm choice, a choice of agoniser, huskblade or master-crafted power weapon for the left arm, and three different heads, so you can create the Archon of your dreams – or nightmares – to reap a healthy harvest of captives for the arenas.

Bodgit’s days are numbered – unless he can embrace the spirit of Da Red Gobbo and rise above his lowly status to outwit Bludhook.

Two decades after the events of Double Eagle, a veteran pilot of the Phantine Air Corps is forced out of retirement when the hive city of Vesperus comes under attack in the sequel Interceptor City. Bree Jagdea is none too pleased to be back in the fray after a cosy life piloting supply transports, especially now that she’s been seconded to the infamous Circus 66 squadron – notorious for their death-defying missions and lethal interceptions through Vesperus’ rat runs.
No Peace Among Stars is an collection of new stories that will be available in paperback and eBook editions.
