Forge World Newsletter #380

Another wonderful set of Forge World models for you to buy on an impulse and then lie to your partner about the cost of...

Both the Kharybdis Assault Claw and the Legion Basilisk have their appeal and they're probably only a new Games Workshop supplement away from being usable in normal games of 40K...I mean if you can use a Baneblade then why not these?

Employed by many Legions as their primary ship-to-ship assault craft, the Kharybdis is a monstrous drop pod, rivaling the Legion Storm Eagle in size and capable of carrying large assault forces through the void and mounting significant firepower for blasting a path through defending small craft.
As a fully operational drop ship, Kharybdis assault claws also serve as assault transports, a role that allows them to use the firepower of their storm launchers and melta cutters to scour clean their chosen landing zone before disembarking their deadly cargo.
Once its passengers has disembarked the Kharybdis becomes a deadly attack craft. Using its powerful thrusters, assault claws and melta cutters to ram enemy armour in daring low-altitude attack runs and envelop enemy infantry formations in flame.
Complete multi-part resin kit designed by Will Hayes. This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from the 3rd of January.
"No finer craft exists for shock assault. Whatever foe remains after the Kharybdis has scoured the landing zone with flame is easy prey for our blades"

As cohesive fighting forces able to operate in and dominate any theatre of war, the Space Marine Legions maintain their own mobile heavy artillery units. The earthshaker cannon armed Basilisk is one of the most common artillery units used by the Legiones Astartes and has proved its effectiveness both for protracted bombardments and as a defensive weapon against enemy armour.

This complete multi-part resin and plastic kit designed by 
Blake Spence includes two Space Marine crew members. This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from the 3rd of January.
"For those who oppose us there is no refuge the Basilisk cannot sunder, no assault it cannot break, no mercy among the stars."
