GW 9/7 Pre-Orders: The Chittering Horde Descends

Alright, fellow Warhammer fans, buckle up because the Skaven are back in town, and they’re bringing an absolutely massive wave of new content and miniatures that’s going to shake the Mortal Realms to its core. If you’re as obsessed with these conniving ratmen as I am, you’re going to lose your mind over what’s coming up. Here’s a detailed breakdown of everything Skaven-related that’s dropping soon, along with some color commentary to get you even more hyped!

Skaven Unleashed – New Battletome and Miniatures

First things first, the Skaven are coming out in force with a brand-new battletome that’s packed to the brim with everything you need to dominate the tabletop. This 128-page monster includes an eight-page gatefold section that’s loaded with lore, rules, and more – basically, it’s your new best friend if you’re planning to lead the Skaven horde.

The Skaven Spearheads – Warpspark Clawpack and More

Now, let’s talk about the new Spearhead forces because they are absolutely wild. The Skaven are rolling out not one but TWO Spearhead forces, including the Warpspark Clawpack. This beast of a set comes with 25 miniatures, including a classic Grey Seer, three absolutely insane Stormfiends (if you’ve ever faced these things, you know they’re no joke), a Warp Lightning Cannon, and 20 fresh Clanrats. This set is an absolute must-have, whether you’re building a new army or reinforcing your existing Skaven horde. And the best part? Rules for this bad boy will be available for free on Warhammer Community.

New Characters and Units – The Stars of the Skaven Show

Alright, let’s get into the real meat of this update – the new characters and units. We’ve got some seriously epic additions coming to the Skaven ranks, and they’re going to be game-changers on the tabletop.

Reinforcements and More

But wait, there’s more! Alongside all these new units, we’re also getting some awesome reinforcements. The Clawlord on Gnaw-beast, Warplock Jezzails, and Rat Ogors are all making their way out of the Skaventide boxed set and into standalone releases. Plus, Thanquol on Boneripper is getting reboxed, so if you missed out on this iconic duo, now’s your chance.

And don’t forget about the new Warscroll Cards and Skaven-themed dice! These are going to make managing your army a breeze, with all 43 warscrolls included on 50 reference cards. And those dark green dice with bright green pips? Yeah, they’re as cool as they sound.

Bonus Content – White Dwarf

While the Skaven are clearly the stars of the show, there’s also some sweet stuff coming in the next issue of White Dwarf! It’s packed with awesome Warhammer content, including a huge four-player battle in Age of Sigmar, and a campaign featuring the Stormcast Eternals and – you guessed it – the Skaven.

Final Thoughts

All in all, if you’re a Skaven player, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for. The new battletome, miniatures, and rules are going to make your army more dangerous and more fun to play than ever before. Whether you’re just getting into the Skaven or you’ve been a die-hard fan for years, this is the perfect time to dive in and unleash the fury of the Great Horned Rat on your enemies!
