Let's be honest - the Tau are cool and anyone who doesn't like them is really just jealous of their ranged firepower. Get in close and they're toast, but far away, you are plasma-fodder!
The Greater Good is the the latest chapter of Psychic Awakening is out next week, which gives you updated rules for Genestealer Cults and Imperial Guard, and it also gives some love to the much-maligned Tau - the good guys of the WH40K universe. The book comes in We're Here To Help Collectors Edition (with a pretty awesome variant cover) and One Of Us Standard Edition. Rather surprisingly, the new mini for this release is Commander Shadowsun which would normally be awesome except for two things; [1] she who has somehow been Primaris-ified and [2] she head looks like it's been made out of play-doh, or maybe a crushed pea. That's a huge shame because the later Tau heads have been very detailed and expressive. Thankfully there are three head options in the kit, so go for the helmet! Genestealer Cults also get some new rules in this book, so we finally get the awesome Kelermorph model available separately, and a new Start Collecting! Genestealer Cults box which is about 30% off RRP and comes with the awesome Achilles Ridgerunner.
Meanwhile in the world of giant mechs, there is a new Adeptus Titanicus expansion book - Shadow and Iron - which brings new rules for Knight Houses, new weapons options and rules for the new Warbringer Nemesis Titan who comes with a head so big you'd think it was a Kardashian. There's also the new Adeptus Titanicus Titan Command Terminals for all Titan classes, a set of cool new Manufactorum Imperialis scenery and a new starter set, Adeptus Titanicus: The Horus Heresy. If you love your Titans there's also new decals on the way with decal sheets for Legio Ignatum, Legio Metallica and Legio Astorum.
Far away from a land of giant robots there lives the world of Middle Earth, who next week get some new additions, with new Magical Powers Cards, Defenders of Pelennor Profile Cards, Mordor Profile Cards and Fallen Realms Profile Cards. For the life of me, we can't work out why these are so expensive!
Now if you like your 40K cute and cuddly, the new Bandai-made Warhammer 40,000 Chibi Figures Series 1 are on their way. If you haven't been exposed to this sort of mass produced rubbish before, for the most part they're very cheap quality with poor paint jobs. Maybe these can be stripped and repainted, but don't expect much when you open them.
In books, there's just one this week - Farsight: Empire of Lies which sounds like it's about to retcon everything we know about Farsight and possibly the Tau. Not ideal!
As with all of the Psychic Awakening releases, if you order through the webstore you will get the Greater Good Datasheet Cards which have the stats for Commander Shadowsun and The Eight on them.
