Forge World Newsletter #393

Well that's just made a great many people very happy indeed...

To be fair £60 isn't a bad price for such a detailed model either...and you don't hear me say that very often about Forge World models, lol.

Horus Lupercal, Primarch of the Luna Wolves Legion, was the greatest of his superhuman kind. A tactical genius and charismatic battle leader, he proved himself over the course of the Great Crusade as a warlord second only to the Emperor whom he served and called father.
When the Emperor stood apart from the burden of the command of the Great Crusade, it was Horus he declared Warmaster in his stead, shortly after this the Luna Wolves were renamed the Sons of Horus in his honour. But ambition and pride festered within the Warmaster's heart and at Davin he fell, and the lies and corruption of the Warp infected his soul. From then on he plotted with dark forces to usurp the Emperor's throne and become the master of Mankind, throwing the galaxy into bloody civil war.
Horus the Warmaster, designed by Simon Egan, is an amazingly detailed multi-part resin model representing the Warmaster at the start of the Horus Heresy. He is shown equipped with his unique suit of Terminator armour – the Serpent’s Scales, and is armed with the Warmaster's Talon and the power maul Worldbreaker.
The latest addition to our Horus Heresy Character Series stands atop a scenic base depicting Warmaster Horus triumphant upon the ruins of an Imperial building. The model is also provided with a smaller removable base for gaming use and as with all of our Character Series models is supplied in a display box as shown.
This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from Monday 14th April. You can find out more about how Simon Egan approached this most iconic of Horus Heresy modelling projects by clicking on the video banner below.  You can also get a sneak peak of The Horus Heresy Book Three: Extermination in the second video included.
Full rules for this model can be found in The Horus Heresy Book One: Betrayal.
