Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Leagues Of Votann Army Set

Product Information

Alison closes out our round-up with the super popular Trans-Hyperian Alliance – why break a trend when it’s this hot? Crisp highlights and a piercing-studded grimace from the unhelmeted face perfectly set off this Einhyr Champion. I know. Of course, it’s supposed to resemble a stone-like, scarred texture, ta give ye the feel this wee chappie’s got sum o’ tha’ real dwarven grit aboot ‘im. But unfortunately, the meringue can’t be unseen. Finally, we arrive at the Hearthkyn Warriors. These are, in many ways, the most important figures in the set. These run-of-the-mill grunts are the benchmark unit, the central point in the design nervous system from which ball other units will be derived. They are the Space Marine Assault Intercessor to the wider Primaris range – the core progenitor upon which all other artistic and design choices will, to an extent, be based upon.

You can also personalise your legionaries with a set of Death Guard heads for Mark VI armour. This set includes 11 resin heads – nine spiked helmets, a rebreather-clad bare head, and a Sergeant’s helm. Blood Angels MKVI Shoulder Pads Master the tactics and technology of the Kin with this set of 50 Leagues of Votann datacards. They cover all the Core and Leagues of Votann Stratagems, as well as those unique to specific Leagues, and all the psychic powers available to the Grimnyr. No one will escape your judgement with these at hand. The Leagues of Votann Army Set promises a brand-new faction (well, not entirely brand new), a host of new miniatures, and a box full of goodies. The pricing is pretty much as we would expect – we’re looking at savings of around 50% when buying the box as opposed to buying everything in the box individually. The Warhammer 40K Leagues of Votann are an aggressive force bolstered by strong shielding and defense, and have both potent ranged and melee capabilities. We'll dive into each of the units included in the Army Set in the next section, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight some of their rules that really stand out. Choosing A League So, instead of being glass cannons, Leagues of Votann are just regular cannons. Dangerous, mean, and really tough to make a dent in – particularly if you can’t actually see them for the ton of judgement tokens you may find yourself drowning in.

Leagues of Votann codex

There are also a lot of choices when it comes to armament. All 10 models can be equipped with either an auto-pattern bolter or ion blaster, or with a bolt pistol and melee weapon. Strangely enough, the latter is not an option in the codex.

Last but not least, we have the magna-coil bike riding Hernkyn Pioneers, probably my favourite models from the set. These are quite sizeable models that come on three medium-size sprues and 90mm oval bases. There are many other outlets out there more qualified to speak about rules than us, so a brief run-down of why this little table has rustled everyone’s jimmies is as follows: Leagues have an army-wide rule called Judgement of the Ancestors that allows all units to automatically wound their targets on successful hit rolls. Depending on how mad your Squats are with their foes (or, to put a fine point on it, the more Judgement Tokens assigned to a unit), the minimum value required to automatically wound their enemies drops from 6, to 5, and then to 4. Squats have been in stasis for quite some time. Originally a part of the very first edition of Warhammer 40,000 – then called Rogue Trader – and a fan favourite in the second edition, Squats were confined to the dark corridors of hobby history with the advent of Warhammer 40,000’s third edition in the October of 1998. The rules section contains everything you would find in a 9th edition codex: Battle-forged rules with detachment abilities, sub-faction rules for the individual leagues, stratagems, army rules, matched play rules incl. secondary objectives, crusade rules, and of course the datasheets and points. Founded less than a millennium ago when the Kôrynn’s Kindred’s Fane* achieved self-awareness and became a Votann, the Kronus Hegemony now aggressively pursue new knowledge and raw materials to defend their fledgling Ancestor better.

The same concept is channelled into the Hernkyn Pioneers: these guys are all equipped in big coats that act in a similar manner – billowing out behind them as the vehicle pushes forwards.
