Barely a week goes by without Games Workshop dragging some old white metal Lord of the Rings models out to pad out a slow release week, but fear not valiant followers of all things Tolkien, for new things come to tempt you back to The Precious! This week sees the new The Lord of The Rings Battle of Osgiliath boxed set, that includes new terrain, new rules and some new miniatures for Faramir, Madril, Damrod, and Gothmog. This is an actual Starter Set, so if you're wanting to begin in the realms of Tolkien, this is the time and this is the place. Speaking of the new rules, the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game - Rules Manual is also available separately, so if you're running a force, then you can catch up on the changes and then beat the living snot out of the new players and if you're anything like the Horus Heresy Community, you can gatekeep and make people feel uncomfortable. Well... with that of our chests... there's also some lovely dices sets, one each for Mordor, Minas Tirith, Isengard, and Rohan.
Speaking of Horus Heresy, it's time for some serious long range hitting power - need to get some people in a building? Scorpius Missile Tank! Need to shoot down a plane? Scorpius Missile Tank! Need to destroy an Archmagos sitting in the backfield? Scorpius Missile Tank! Yes the Scorpius Missile Tank, once very overpowered and may have now been fixed, is here and it's a really great piece of kit on the field. If you're a gamer of Heresy, then this is an almost must-have!
Warhammer Underworlds continues to grow (no pun intended) as we continue into the Gnarlwood, this time with some Gloomspite Gitz, it's Grinkrak's Looncourt. Lots of character in this lot, but as a Goblin fan, it does feel like some of these are moving away from the idea of war and more towards the idea of circus! Also in Warhammer Underworlds: Gnarlwood, the Fearsome Fortress Rivals Deck is here. It can be used with any warband, giving you the power to build walls and traps. There's also cross-compatibility with Rivals, Nemesis, and Relic games
More rules supplements this week with Kill Team getting their Critical Ops - Tac Ops & Mission Card Pack giving you new scenarios and maps, plus an update to the existing Tac Ops mechanic.
Next week is also a White Dwarf week with White Dwarf 483.
