You want to hear a secret? There are a new bunch of Space Marines coming to Warhammer Heroes, but these ones are a little more mysterious than the Ultramarines.
The latest blind buy miniature collection features Strike Force Variel from the Dark Angels Chapter,* and every box contains one of seven different warriors, each with their own equipment, specialisation and Kill Team rules card.
These miniatures are a great introduction to the Warhammer hobby, and you can assemble them without glue or tools.
Stoic Sternguard Sergeant Ramus is joined by Infernus Marine Haroth, Assault Intercessor Maphael, Infiltrator Belath, Intercessor Zeradim and Reiver Nahrden. This elite team is led by a mysterious lieutenant of the Chapter – whose miniature must remain secret for now.
Each box will come with a Kill Team datacard for the miniature, with the operative stats, weapons and strategy ploy translated in English, German and Japanese. Collect them all and you have a simple-to-learn streamlined Kill Team designed as the perfect way to get a taste for the game, and able to take to the Killzone against any other team.
Every display unit will have eight blind boxes, but there is no guarantee you will get all seven miniatures if you buy a full dispenser of eight boxes.
They’ll be available to buy from selected retailers later in the year.
* They come in green plastic. You’re welcome to paint them whatever colour you like (although our editor assures us that green armies are better than all other armies).
