++ Delivery Fulfillment on the Week-of 02/12/23 ++
This may have been the week that broke us, to be very honest. It's a huge pre-order week for a brand new games system that's been hyped for lord-knows how long, wanted by the community for longer, and Games Workshop couldn't get their act together to ship it to the Australia and New Zealand warehouse. In 2023, that's so disappointing. Back in 1988, when I first entered the hobby-proper (having been buying minis since the early 80s), this could have been acceptable, but with air freight, this situation is embarrassing for the largest miniature gaming company in the world. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth, and this is from someone who isn't even interested in Legion Imperialis. So, what will be be able to order this weekend instead of the much-hyped new games system?
Well, we get part of it - the new Legions Imperialis: Civitas Imperialis Administratum Sector giving you a variety of buildings for your battlefield. A fairly pricey set, but also necessary to play the game!
In Made to Order this week we have the Classic Deathleaper and the fan-fave, The Red Terror, who despite not being in the new Tyranid Codex, is a nice mini to have for the Tyranid fan.
It's coming up to Christmas, so it's stocking filler time - the Warhammer 40,000: Imperium Tin Tote, Warhammer 40,000 – Official 2024 Calendar, and Warhammer Boxed Christmas Cards (have a look at the price for a good laugh!) are all there for the Warhammer fan in your life.
In books this week we have the continuation of the current Warhammer 40K storyline with Dawn Of Fire: Sea Of Souls Book 7 (in Special Edition and paperback), Hammers Of Sigmar: First Forged in paperback and
The Last Volari in paperback.

The dreaded words have been spoken; "These products have all been delayed for a short time in Australia and New Zealand" - and the door slams shut on enjoying the new games system with the rest of the world.
So what's out for everyone else?
The big set, the Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Legions Imperialis, giving you both Astartes and Solar Auxilia, the Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Legions Imperialis Rulebook and the two Legiones Astartes and Solar Auxilia Army Cards sets.
In minis there's the Legiones Astartes Infantry, Kratos Heavy Tank Squadron and a Rhino box to move your troops around in. The Thunderhawk Gunship makes a reappearance from the Aeornautica Imperialis game too.
The Solar Auxilia have their Infantry set, and a box of Baneblades for support, but no transports yet.
We also see the return of the Aeronautica Imperialis minis, the Lightning Fighter, Marauder Bomber, Marauder Destroyer, plus some Forge World resin minis, the Marauder Colossus and Marauder Pathfinder, plus the Arvus Lighters.
Reboxed and rebased, the Questoris Knights, Cerastus Knight Lancers, Reaver Titans, and Warlord Titans return, plus Forge World's Warglaives and Helverins, Knights Styrix, Moriax, Magaera, Atrapos, Asterius and the Warlord-Sinister Psi Titan return.
Terrain isn't forgotten with the Civitas Imperialis City Road Tiles and Civitas Imperialis Ruins sets, plus the Administratum Sector which collects some of the Adeptus Titanicus terrain kits.
There's also the new new Carta Galactica Map showing the Imperium's domains at the time of the Heresy.
