Eye of Terror: Reign of Iron hits stores this Saturday, 18 April, and it is one of the biggest Warhammer 40,000 releases of the year so far. The headline act: the Iron Warriors finally get their own dedicated kits.

Start organising for freeFor those outside the 40K orbit, the Iron Warriors are Chaos Space Marines who specialise in siege warfare, grinding attrition, and heavy artillery. They have been a fan-requested army for years, and this wave gives them a proper army box for the first time. The Iron Warriors Combat Patrol (£105) bundles a Warpsmith, five Havocs, five Chaos Terminators, and ten Legionaries with a legion upgrade frame. A new character, Warsmith Kravek Morne (£29), leads the assault, and the completely redesigned Defiler (£87.50) offers two torso poses, three carapace options, and multiple weapon loadouts for hobbyists to sink their teeth into.
On the Imperial side, the standout is the Knight Destrier (£105), a new fast-attack chassis designed for close-range brawling. Battalion boxes for Imperial Knights (£125), Adeptus Mechanicus (£105), and Space Marines (£177) round out the wave.

Set up your group for freeThe Reign of Iron campaign book (£48.50) introduces new detachments for five factions and brings back large-scale Apocalypse rules for massive multi-army battles, giving players who like their games measured in hours rather than minutes a reason to dust off their biggest models.
