Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Dark Angels: The Lion & Retinue

Product Information

A longtime fan of the Dark Angels, Máryse has gone for the traditional and starkly highlighted dark green armour of the Chapter, complemented with bold red details, shining gold trim, and cream robes on the Watchers. Rachel Redmond Matthew from Goonhammer has chosen colder blue-grey tones for the highlights on the armour of his Lion, which work in tandem with rich golds, natural greens, and subtle weathering to ground this legendary knight.

This is an incredibly exciting weekend for pre-releases, and I have to say I'm really, truly impressed by The Lion & Retinue kit. Full of tactical power and featuring an amazing sculpt, this really does feel like the arrival of a famed Primarch, with all of the gravitas you'd expect from the Lion. If you're already a Dark Angels player, this release is likely a no-brainer (as long as you can find a place to cut points to make room for him).That's a lot of damage potential for a pistol! If you're looking to upgrade your Dante model (or don't yet have him in your Blood Angels army) now's the time to follow his lead and leap into action. Warhammer 40K 30K New Releases - Horus Heresy Tanks

The massive Cerberus Heavy Tank Destroyer is an armoured beast , mounting a triple-barrelled neutron laser battery onto a rugged Spartan hull to create a devastatingly focused anti-tank weapon. It can detonate tanks in a single blast while shrugging off return fire like it’s nothing – everything you want in a Lord of War. Sicaran Venator Tank Hunter Though the rest of the miniature cleaves closely to the Dark Angels’ themes of knighthood and secrecy, the Emperor’s Shield is a bombastic statement piece that sharply contrasts with the rest of the Lion’s garb. Seb clued us in on its origins, saying “I had this idea that it would be cool for the Loyalist Primarchs to inherit something from their father’s armoury, so we decided that the Lion’s shield would be his. Like the Emperor’s suit of armour, it’s absolutely over-the-top.” Buoyed by their ability to hold objectives to the very last man, the Deathwing can teleport right into the heart of the battle as an immovable barricade, safe in the knowledge that points will be scored no matter the cost. Rachel has painted her Lion with armour and cloth that has a matte finish and subtle highlights – providing a different take on the Primarch’s new suit of armour, one that contrasts effectively against the shining gold trim. Sam Lenz Whereas Guilliman is all about optimism for a shining new Imperium, we wanted the Lion to be the dark, secretive side,” Dom explained. “We wanted him to sit in opposition to Guilliman, and from a narrative perspective, that gave us a really interesting place to go with his miniature.”Azrael isn’t the only Chapter Master given the Primaris treatment – Commander Dante has barely tied a bow on the apocalyptic invasion of Baal and he’s already off finding more enemies of the Imperium to destroy. Someone really needs to give the guy a holiday. Vashtorr the Arkifane Their ability lets them choose at the start of the battle to fight on whatever terms best suit their game plan, but let’s not fool ourselves – whichever vow they swear, the end results will be dished out with a chainsword. Outflank lumbering opponents with the Sicaran Venator Tank Hunter***, a nimble armoured vehicle fitted with a neutron beam laser. It’s the perfect candidate for speeding ahead of your main force and tearing through the vulnerable side and rear armour of hapless enemy war machines. After years of collecting, buying and selling, building and painting, we realised that we had amassed a small library of Build Instructions, Assembly Instructions and User Guides for various Games Workshop products.
