The Siege of Death Mire global campaign has been running for one week, with players around the world battling it out to decide the fate of this critical hive city. In the first week, we’ve received thousands of results from your Warhammer 40,000 games, so a big thank you to all of you who have already taken part. We can now reveal the results of week one's battles…
Yes! The Imperium scores first blood! Blunting the enemy attacks against the Hive’s outer walls. They now retreat to a well fortified second line, ready for the next wave of Ork Attacks.
Imperial Players – well done!
Ork Players – what were you doing? You call that a Waaagh! We’ve seen grots put up a better fight. Get stuck in Boyz, you’ve got work to do, and only two weeks left to do it!
As promised, the winning faction this week will be rewarded with a miniatures reveal, and that is the new Space Marines Outriders! Get your engines started and take a closer look.
It’s Space Marines! On bikes! This is a new multipart kit for the Outriders, more poseable than before and bringing new options. The sergeant in particular gets even more hitting power – now able to choose between a thunder hammer, power axe, or power sword. There’s also new cosmetic options – including being able to assemble the bikes leaning to the left or right as if taking a corner – making it easy to customise your speedy Space Marines.
Week 2 sees the Imperium forces having fallen back in good order to The Cloisters – a shanty town that lies between the Tempestor Victorum line and the heart of the hive – ready to make their next stand against the brutal Ork invaders.
To help decide the fate of The Cloisters, report the result of your Warhammer 40,000 game online. You’ll need a My Warhammer account to take part, and you’ll need to dedicate your victory to either the Space Marines or Orks (although you can play your game with any army!)*
Don’t forget, you can also report results in your local Warhammer store, and only these results will determine who controls the Gallows Spaceport – a critical supply line and transport hub that both sides desperately need.
Plus, when you register your results online you’ll be entered into a draw to win one of 40 1,000-point armies of brand new Space Marines or Orks miniatures!** So, prepare your forces, plot your tactics, and head out into The Cloisters.
* Maybe your Drukhari realspace raid diverted key Imperial resources on Armageddon, or your Tyranids ate an Ork reinforcement fleet.
** T&Cs apply.
