NEW Chaos Daemons have arrived !
Games Workshop have put their new WFB and 40K Daemons on "Pre-orders".
They certainly look interesting and suitably Daemonic !
The news release from GW:-
New Daemons Available to Pre-Order
To earn the ire of a Daemon is to sign your own death warrant. Gruesome warriors and fiends all, each of the entities that make up their ranks is a fragment of its patron god given form. They are as immortal as time itself and as powerful as the roiling emotions they embody...
Ready to pre-order today are ghoulish treats for all collectors of both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer miniatures. Chaos Daemons, also known as Daemons of Chaos in the Warhammer world, receive a host of mind-bogglingly brilliant new miniatures in plastic and Citadel Finecast, as well as a new Codex and Army Book, both of which come in a limited edition format.
First up: in a collection of stomach-churning creations, it takes something especially hideous such as the Plague Drones of Nurgle to stand out. On each model, a Plaguebearer sits atop an enormous Rot Fly, which is covered in horrific details. This is a must-have for anyone who wishes to please the Dark Gods in a particularly grim manner.
But even more mind-boggling plastic delights await the collector...
The Blood Throne of Khorne can also make a Skull Cannon of Khorne - both are industrious creations, hybrids of flesh and daemon engine. Meanwhile the Burning Chariot of Tzeentch also provides the modeller with a large number of options: either a Herald of Tzeentch or Exalted Flamer can stand atop a large ornate disc, while blue horrors ooze ahead of a bubbling sea of warpflame. Finally, in plastic, comes the Herald of Nurgle.There is also a Herald of Khorne and Herald of Slaanesh, both of which are available in our premium Citadel Finecast resin. All of the miniatures are available for use in both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer collections.
To accompany these new releases come the hardcover Codex: Chaos Daemons and the new Army Book -Warhammer: Daemons of Chaos. Both books are available in limited edition format, which come with a special matt dust-jacket featuring a gloss illustration, one for each god. Underneath, the hardcover finish is soft touch with subtle artwork, and includes a black ribbon bookmark, black edging and a individually numbered certificate.
You'll need to hit that buy button soon, as all of the variants are available in strictly limited quantities...
The books contain the same information as the standard editions - a rich and vivid background to the Daemons and their patron gods, army lists to arrange your collection into a battle-ready force, and showcases of expertly painted Citadel miniatures. For those of you who wish to swipe your way through the galleries, the digital editions of Codex: Chaos Daemons and Warhammer: Daemons of Chaos are available to pre-order on the iBookstore right now. Go!
Finally, available for you to pre-order on games-workshop.com are two sets of cards - Warhammer 40,000 Psychic Cards: Chaos Daemons and Warhammer Battle Magic: Daemons of Chaos, for use in your tabletop games. Both are available in strictly limited numbers - get your orders in before they sell out. "
