It directs readers towards the design interviews, new codex coverage and painting challenge that explore what the reinforcements mean for both the setting and the hobby.

Power Armour Assault!

The month’s releases turn the Primaris into a broad force with Aggressors, new vehicles and multipart versions of familiar troops. Codex: Space Marines combines those additions with existing units, while Chapter tactics, relics, stratagems and supporting cards express the differences between Chapters.

The Redemptor encloses a mortally wounded hero inside a larger, heavily armed walking chassis. Opening sarcophagus armour, alternative main weapons and a wide range of articulated joints make the kit accessible as instructed or highly poseable after removing locator tabs.
