Iron Warriors Legion Upgrade Frame

April 2026·p. 51

THE SHORT VERSION

The Iron Warriors upgrade frame adapts Heresy-era Mark III cues to a later, more threatening Legion appearance through narrower faceplates, heavy banding, studs and bionics. It provides helmeted and exposed heads, numerous Legion shoulder pads and bionic arms with a hammer or power fist. The designers explain how these details make ordinary Legionaries read immediately as Iron Warriors without requiring a complete replacement kit.
