Next week the mighty Ten Thousand get new rules and miniatures for both the 41st Millennium AND the Age of Darkness.
Warhammer 40,000/Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Aquilon Terminator Sodality
When times are at their most dire, the Custodes deploy troops clad in the highly advanced Aquilon Terminator armour – some of the finest personal protection the Imperium has ever created. This new kit contains six Aquilon Terminators for use in both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: The Horus Heresy, with options to build each miniature with a Lastrum storm bolter, infernus firepike, or adrathic combi‑destructor, and solarite power gauntlet or solarite power talon.
Warhammer 40,000/Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Gyrfalcon Jetbike Sodality
Skirmishing Custodians maintain many kinds of fast vehicles to surge across rough terrain, and the Gyrfalcon Jetbike is one of the most powerful. This set of two jetbike-mounted Custodians are each equipped with a solarite power lance, while their mounts can carry your choice of a Space Marine-killing Lastrum bolt cannon, monster-slaying adrathic devastator, horde-removing arachnus volley cannon, or vehicle-busting twin Corvae las-pulser.
Warhammer 40,000/Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Telemon Heavy Dreadnought
Telemon Heavy Dreadnoughts are the pinnacle of Dreadnought engineering, and each one carries a terrifying assortment of weapons to destroy the Emperor’s most implacable foes.
This kit contains an assortment of cosmetic options, and one of its Telemon caestus fists can be replaced with either an adrathic desolator, an arachnus storm cannon, or an Iliastus accelerator culverin.
Warhammer 40,000/Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Pallas Grav-Attack
The fast hover vehicles known as Pallas Grav-Attacks are highly agile hunter-killers, deployed when the need for rapid response firepower is greater even than jetbike sodalities can cover. It excels at devastating hit-and-run assaults and hunting down fleeing targets of importance, and is able to configure its arsenal for all kinds of missions with a choice between a twin arachnus blaze cannon or a twin Iliastus accelerator fusil.
Warhammer 40,000/Warhammer: The Horus Heresy – Custodes Reinforcements

You can pick up the Codex in its standard softback edition, held inside a rigid slipcase, or the hardback Collector’s Edition with a unique foil-embossed cover, ribbon page marker, and printed page edges.

Black Library – Cold Covenant
After months stationed on Oblazt, a remote planet ruled by a corrupt aristocracy, the 27th Halgarth Brine Dogs are finally due to depart for a new war zone. As three veterans and an enigmatic enginseer conspire to desert, they discover the ghosts of the planet will not be silenced. Cold Covenant by Peter Fehervari will be available in a regular hardback edition, as well as a Special Edition with foil details on the cover, a red ribbon page marker, printed red page edges, and signed by the author.
The Special Edition goes on pre-order from 3pm UK time on 7 October 2026, and will only be available while stocks last.
Black Library – Paperback Releases
A new Astra Militarum novel by Russell Zimmerman launches in paperback. Auxilia finds the young and brash Castellan-Colonel Roane forced to take charge of a ragtag auxilia built around a clan of despised abhumans, overseen and openly loathed by a murderous commissar and consistently ignored by the Departmento Munitorum. Roane struggles with the impossible task of hammering his unit into Cadian shape, while those around him would rather see it destroyed.
You’ll also be able to pre-order new paperback editions of Dropsite Massacre by John French and Apostle by David Annandale.
Black Library – French and German Releases
French and German readers will also be able to pre-order two new Black Library releases in their native languages – Krakenblood by Marc Collins and the Vaults of Terra Omnibus by Chris Wraight. The former sees a Space Wolves Wolf Priest strive to earn a legend of his own while on the hunt for a relic of his Chapter, while the latter contains three novels and three short stories that tell of a dark conspiracy on the Throneworld itself and an Inquisitorial team’s efforts to expunge this threat to Terra that threatens all of humanity.
This week on WarhammerTV, Loremasters covers the iconic hovering fighting vehicle – the Land Speeder – while a battle of big vs small plays out on Battle Report as the Slaves to Darkness take on the Sons of Behemat, who’ll be using their new battletome for the first time. You’ll also be able to enjoy the supercut of Aeronautica Imperialis and listen to the soundtrack of the aerial animation.
Here at Warhammer Community, we’ll be looking into the pages of Codex: Adeptus Custodes and gearing up for the release of Codex: Space Marines on Saturday with sweeping rules updates to Space Marines of all kinds. Whether your power armour is clean and tidy or riven with Chaos corruption, you’ll want to check in later in the week to find out how things will be changing for you.
* This product will be released at a later date in Japan.
