Alright, fellow Old World enthusiasts, grab your Bretonnian banners and polish that plate armor because Warhammer: The Old World is about to hit us with a nostalgia tsunami this Saturday! Picture this – a dazzling Bretonnian host squaring off against the relentless undead legions of Khemri. It’s like a classic showdown between chivalry and bone-chilling horror.
But hold on to your griffon feathers; this isn’t just any Old World release. We’re talking classic models making a grand return – some in their original glory, others getting a shiny remaster, and a handful coming to us through the magical Made to Order gateway. It’s like digging up treasure from the Warhammer history vault.
Now, let’s talk about a true relic – the Bretonnian Lord on Foot and his pint-sized helper. Believe it or not, this dynamic duo was sculpted back in 2008 but never saw the light of day. Fast forward more than 15 years, and they’re finally strutting onto the tabletop scene. Kudos to Martin, the original sculptor, who probably did a little happy dance when he heard his creation was getting its moment in the sun.
According to Rob, the Old World Lead, this Lord is a gem for the collectors who’ve had him on their mythical ‘lost’ miniatures list. And here’s the cool part – while the squire doesn’t have in-game rules, you’re encouraged to let your creativity run wild with how you use him. A loyal sidekick with limitless possibilities? Sign me up!
But that’s not the only rarity making a comeback. Rob spilled the beans that many factions are in for surprise visits from long-lost models. It’s like the Old World is throwing a reunion party for these metal legends.
And for those lucky enough to attend the launch event at Warhammer World in Nottingham this weekend – hold on to your helms because you’ll be the first to glimpse the next army getting the Old World treatment! For the rest of us stuck in different corners of the realm, fear not – the juicy details will be served up right here on Warhammer Community. The Old World is back, my friends, and it’s bringing the good old days with it!
