Guard players will be excited this week as the Death Korps of Krieg – Astra Militarum Army Set goes on pre-order. It's not your typical Army Set as the contents of the Lord Marshal on steed, ten Death Riders cavalry, an Artillery Team and five Krieg Combat Engineers with a remote mine are effectively more a set of specialists rather then line infantry - which is what we usually get in an Army Box. With the Krieg infantry already exisiting in Kill Team, maybe the focus shifted, but it's interesting there's no transport or tank. Is this a clue to their playing style? Well also in the Army Box is the new Codex: Astra Militarum, so you'll be finding out how they play pretty quickly. The set also includes 68 Datacards, Combat Patrol datasheets, 64 datasheets and some Krieg decals. These are a great addition to the Guard (especially that awesome looking artillery), and already a lot of people are using the Kill Team set for some great conversions, so lets see what the Community comes up with.
Following on from the excellent Citadel Skulls set, there's a new way to decorate your bases - the Battlefield Trophies set, which adds new heads from various 40K factions to your collection. Perfect for the Bitz Box, this set is a must-have and even includes some Vespid heads!
This week the rest of the world has a tonne of Middle-Earth miniatures from the distant past, plus some awesome new plastic ones from The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim. These have been delayed in Australia and News Zealand (see below), but we do have one classic set - the Galadriel and Celeborn Around A Table with a Bowl. Yes, I know that's not what it's called, roll with me here!
In books this week we have the delayed release of The Emperor's Gift (Special Edition), the new Guard-themed Soldiers of the Imperium Omnibus which includes the novels Death World, Kasrkin, and Witchbringer, plus four short stories. The other book releases are Renegades: Lord of Excess (Paperback), there's the hardback version of Leontus: Lord Solar, and the venerable and ever re-published The Imperial Infantryman's Handbook.

Now, for the rest of the world it's a mixed blessing... excitedly we have the new plastic minis from The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, Haleth & Háma, Princes of Rohan which give you both heroes mounted and dismounted and options head choices. Also in plastic we have Wulf, High Lord of the Hill Tribes & General Targg in both mounted and dismounted configuration but no optional heads. This isn't stated but it also seems to be in plastic, and thats the Shank & Wrot, Orc Scavengers. Bear with me - that big guy would look great in a Necromunda market! Adding to the confusion is Héra™, The Bride of Death who comes in resin... confusion reigns supreme.
Now we said there was classic Middle-Earth this week, so strap yourselves in... in no particular order and straight from the GW blurb as we can't see the minis down here - there's the re-release of Bard the Bowman, Haldir, Thranduil, the Gondor Battlecry Trebuchet, Iron Hills Ballista plus three Command Sets, one each for Lórien, Minas Tirith, and Rohan. As usual, Rohan wins! Prefer the bad guys? Well, GW are offering Gorbag and Shagrat, a Cave Troll, the Goblin King and his Retinue, and the trio of Trolls from The Hobbit plus the comedic Watcher in the Water, the Gundabad Orc Warband, Uruk-Hai Demolition Team, Isengard Assault Ballista, and Mordor War Catapult, plus the Morannon Orc and Mordor Orc Commanders.
There's also the much-in demand Rohan terrain with the Rohan House and Watchtower & Palisades sets back for a limited time, and if you really feel the need you can get six sets of houses and two watchtower sets in the Rohan Stronghold.
