Waaaargh! Orks are coming for Warhammer 40,000 with a new codex for the latest edition as well as a green tide’s worth of releases to build your army. For Warhammer: Age of Sigmar comes made to order Skaven and Middle-earth Strategy Game gets made to order Elves and Dwarves. See what’s coming for pre-order this coming week.

The latest edition of Warhammer 40,000 has been out for a few months and new codexes are starting to roll out. The first is Codex: Orks! It’s packed with new rules, lore, and artwork. It features 15 detachments to mix and match, plus an expanded Waaagh! army rule and datasheets for over 50 units.

Codex: Orks also includes a code to unlock access to the new rules in the Warhammer 40,000 app, and this time you get more than just a reference sheet. This code is an ongoing subscription to regular rules updates, additional detachments, new lore, and advanced hobby guides that will be added to the app.

Along with the standard codex, there’s also a Collector’s Edition. It features a full hardback cover and gold foil details, plus green foil page edges and a green ribbon page marker. The content inside is the same as the regular codex, and it’s only available while stocks last.

Nazdreg is finally getting a new proper figure! As a Bad Moons warlord of incredible wealth and one of Ork society’s greatest proponents of tellyporta technology, Nazdreg has amassed immense power and stands as one of the premier Ork warbosses around. He’s got plenty of brute strength and powerful weapons to back up his cunning mind, ranging from his vicious Moonchewa power klaw to the three-in-one firearm he carries known only as Kustom Blasta X.

The Orks are getting a generic Warboss they can customize to lead their forces. The kit comes with loads of customization options – he can be armed with a kustom choppa or power klaw, and kustom shoota, kombi-rokkit or kombi-skorcha. He also has numerous cosmetic options, including an attack squig, different boss pole toppers, and mix-and-match head and jaw options.

With so many cool vehicles, Orks will want a Mek to give them a quick fix in the field. They’re an important aide for hordes of clanking Dreads and roaring Ork vehicles, and the clever git has even brought his own crane to the battlefield for hasty repair jobs.

Ork hordes mean Ork Boyz. Each model carries a shoota, slugga, and choppa, so you can muck it up at whatever range has the best fighting, while three lucky Boyz can take a big shoota, rokkit launcha, and burna for extra firepower. The Nob gets an extra killy power klaw to strap to their arm too, because the biggest should always get the best weapons.

Warbikers rush in and blast away at the enemy. These resilient bikes are covered in haphazard armour plates and pack rapid-fire dakkaguns, with the option for a kombi-rokkit on the squad leader.

You’ll need a Trukk to get your Orks into battle. This update to the classic kit features multiple optional add-on parts like a grabbin’ klaw, buzzsaw, and a big spiked ram, plus loads of cosmetic parts so you can personalize your madcap creation.

You can also show off your workship or Gork or Mork with the Orks Command Pack and Dice. The Command Pack contains 94 reference cards covering all 15 detachments in the Codex – their detachment rules, enhancements, and stratagems – plus a set of 36 double-sided tokens for tracking various rules and statuses.

Finish off your collection with a set of 16 premium dice cast in a properly Orky mottled green plastic, with red pips and the faction logo on the six face.

If you missed them in the recent starter box, the Armageddon Orks get solo releases. You can get the Big Mek Dakkarig, Weirdboy, Wartrakk, and Kommand Krew made up of the Bannernob, Bigboss, and Painboy (with his little grot orderly).

He must choose a side – fast!
