Apocalypse is a new way of playing games of Warhammer 40,000. Allowing you to field as many miniatures as you like, in any combination. There really are no limits to what you can do

Inside this 296-page full colour hardback book you will find:

FIGHTING AN APOCALYPSE BATTLE: The rules for setting up and playing games of Apocalypse; new Apocalypse missions and strategic assets; new rules such as Divine Intervention, and Sons of the Primarch; world ending Unnatural disasters; and advice on how to field all your miniatures in one gigantic collection.

APOCALYPSE FORMATIONS: Details of more than 100 devastating formations that feature the most powerful military assets of the 41st Millennium. With 11 distinct classes of formation, you can take your choice from the C'tan-powered Tesseract Vault to an entire Battle Company of Space Marines! For added convenience, these formations are available to purchase as 1-click formations.

MINIATURES SHOWCASE: Sumptuous photographs of super-heavy vehicles, gargantuan armies and heroic commanders to inspire your own collection.

WAR ZONE: ARMAGEDDON: Details one of the most monumental campaigns of the 41st Millennium, with unique special rules, formations and missions.

Peppered throughout the book is a host of additional background information to further inspire you.

You will need a copy of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook and relevant codexes in order to use the contents of this book.

Khorne Lord of Skulls
This model can be used by every Warhammer 40,000 player in games of Apocalypse.

This massive Daemon Engine of Khorne is built in hell forges with the sole purpose of killing, maiming and burning its enemies until they are no more than a sticky paste under its mighty tracks.

Measuring almost 6" tall, and just over 7" in length, this huge kit comes with a number of assembly options. For starters you get to equip the right arm with a massive Great Cleaver of Khorne. Alongside this you have the choice of whether to equip the left arm with the infantry shredding Hades Gatling Gun or the aptly named Skull Hurler. You also have the option to make any of the three belly guns, as detailed in the Apocalypse rulebook, choosing either the Gorestorm Cannon, Daemongore Cannon,or the Ichor Cannon. Also included are two heads, so you can decide whether you want a fully enclosed helm, or whether you'd rather stare into the cold, dead eyes of the Daemon Engine itself.

This plastic kit contains 99 components and 2 Transfer Sheets with which to make a Khorne Lord of Skulls.

Necron Tesseract Vault/Obelisk
This model can be used by every Warhammer 40,000 player in games of Apocalypse.

The Necron Tesseract Vault holds an imprisoned C'tan Shard, turning its powers into phenomenal weapons of mass destruction. The Obelisk meanwhile, annihilates any aerial threat foolhardy enough to trespass into a tomb world's airspace.

Standing just over a whopping 9" tall, and 10" wide, the Tesseract Vault dominates everything on the tabletop. And that's without mounting it on its flying stand! There are two ways this kit can be put together: either as a Tesseract Vault or as an Obelisk.

If you assemble the Tesseract Vault you will need to use the C'Tan Shard miniature as part of the construction. However, if you elect to build the Obelisk you will also be able to use the C'Tan Shard as a separate miniature.

This plastic kit contains 57 components and a Necron Transfer Sheet. It comes supplied unpainted and requires assembly - we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Paints.

Imperial Guard Baneblade
This model can be used by every Warhammer 40,000 player in games of Apocalypse.

The biggest battle tank in the Imperial arsenal, the Baneblade is the super-heavy of choice for the discerning Imperial General. However you choose to assemble and arm it, this is the ideal centrepiece model for any Imperial Guard fan.

This model kit allows you to make one of the 8 variants of the Baneblade tank as described in the Apocalypse rulebook. So before you start its well worth having a good look at the components and working out exactly which one you're going to create. Starting with the chassis you have the option to mount either twin-linked heavy bolters, or twin-linked heavy flamers as the sponson armaments. You can equip the turret with any one of the following main weapons: Baneblade Cannon, Tremor Cannon, Quake Cannon, Magma Cannon, Hellhammer Cannon, Volcano Cannon, Vulcan Mega-bolter, or Stormsword Siege Cannon. A Demolisher cannon is included should you decide to mount it as the secondary gun. Because, let's face it, there is no such thing as too many guns.

Aerials, artillery shells, smoke launchers, searchlights, tools, name plates, pintle-mounted heavy stubbers, and a co-axial autocannon are all available as additional modelling options. On top of this you also get 3 optional turret-mounted crew who come with a variety of heads, arms and weaponry, allowing you to make an officer, driver or gunner (of course you can always glue the turret shut should you wish). And finally, there are enough parts for you to make an Imperial Guard officer on foot as well.

This plastic kit contains 295 components (no, that isn't a typo) and can make a Baneblade, Banehammer, Banesword, Doom Hammer, Hellhammer, Shadowsword, Stormlord or Stormsword super-heavy tank. Also included is 1 Transfer Sheet which can be used to add markings and insignia.


SPACE MARINE CAPTAINS - Lord Executioner, Master of the Marches, Master of the Rites, Master of Relics.

I like that the Baneblade and Shadowsword are the same kit now.

The walls are actually a more neutral Imperial, not Astartes exclusive.

I do like the Master of the Marches a lot though, can't stand the combi-plasma of the Master of Relics, that gun should not be able to work..

Honestly, they don't need a lot, they're getting a new codex in September anyway.

Yeah! How about a Forge World Emperor Titan, or a Capitol Imperialis. Maybe they could finally show us what a Stormbird looks like.

As an Ork mek, i wanna loot every SINGLE one of those!

Problem is, I don't even have the $positive infinity^(positive infinity) to purchase one of those models (that's what the likely $250 price tag will seem like to me).

Oh well, just more inspiration for more Orky goodness (mega-stompa on giant track sections with four Titan close-combat weapons, eighteen supa rokkitz, four supa gatlerz, and a belly-mounted supa deff kannon anybody?).
