Alright, fellow Horus Heresy fans, this weekend is big for us because the Legiones Astartes MKIII Tactical Squad is up for pre-order. Imagine having a full 20-strong squad of these warriors rocking that classic ‘Iron’ pattern power armor.
Now, here’s the cool part: these minis are like versatile Swiss Army knives. You can mix and match them with the Special Weapons and Heavy Weapons upgrade sets you got for your MKVI tactical squads. Les from the Warhammer Studio shows this off on his Dark Angels, and it looks pretty awesome.
Now, some of you might be saying, “But wait, doesn’t MKIII armor look different with those forearm vambraces?” Well, you’re right! No worries, though. The MKIII Space Marines come with five sets of armored vambraces on each frame. You can easily slap these on when you want to upgrade your squad with some heavy weapons.*
And the deal doesn’t stop there. In the Legiones Astartes Battle Group, which you can pre-order this Saturday, you get 30 of these formidable Space Marines. That’s enough for a complete tactical squad and even two Legion Support Squads. But that’s not all – the box also packs a Special Weapons Upgrade Set, a Land Raider Proteus, and a Deredeo Dreadnought. Talk about heavy support for your Legion!
*Note: While both weapon sets work with the MKIII and MKVI kits, they might not be as compatible with the older plastic Horus Heresy Space Marines.
