The new edition of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy is available to pre-order on Saturday. Inside the huge new Saturnine boxed set, you’ll find a quick guide on how to get started playing alongside the expansive official rulebook. But if you want to get a head start on the new system, look no further than this Learn to Play video.
We’ve had plenty of coverage of the new rules here on Warhammer Community.
You can fInd out how the new Advanced Characteristics work, and what Tactical Statuses mean for your battles, as well as what new weapon stats look like, and how your champions will clash in thematic and thrilling challenges.
Army building provides more ways to create thematic lists, including a healthy allied contingent, while vehicle rules have had a tweak. Saturnine Terminators and Saturnine Dreadnoughts are the stars of the new boxed set, but no matter what your army is made of you’ll be fighting over fresh missions and objectives.
Then there’s your force of choice, which some of our playtesters have written bite-sized introductions for. Whether you’re playing the Loyalists, Traitors, Mechanicum, Solar Auxilia or Questoris Familia, you’ll want to take a peek to figure out what you’re fighting with – or against.
