Kommenden Samstag fallen die Großkompanien der Space Wolves Space Marines mit einem neuen Armeeset auf die Schlachtfelder von Warhammer 40,000 ein, es gibt das neue Chapter Approved 2025-26: Mission Deck und der Krieg kehrt im neuen Kreuzzugs Buch auf den Planeten Armageddon zurück.

Sunday Preview – Let slip the wolves of war

The Allfather smiles kindly on us this week, as the Space Wolves sharpen their senses and prepare to hunt down heretics across the galaxy. This is just the tip of the Fenrisian iceberg – reinforcements are coming later – and there’s a new Matched Play Mission Deck and a Crusade supplement zeroing in on Angron’s war for Armageddon. It’s all kicking off – get involved below.

Space Wolves Army Set

As the sagas have foretold, the Space Wolves have arrived with an Army Set containing 28 brand-new miniatures, a Codex Supplement for the Great Companies of Fenris, a set of datasheet cards, and a new transfer sheet.

Leading the charge are a pair of fearsome battle brothers: a Wolf Guard Battle Leader with a heap of customisation options and a Wolf Priest, one of the Chapter’s spiritual shamans.

They are followed by three Wolf Guard Headtakers, elite warriors accompanied by their Hunting Wolves. Then there are 10 Blood Claws, the youngest and most impetuous of the Space Wolves, let loose under the watchful eyes of 10 Grey Hunters, who have learned over the years to rein in their most savage impulses.

The box also includes a 104-page Codex Supplement: Space Wolves, which is packed with pages of lore, art, miniatures photography, and rules for leading the Sons of Russ into battle on the tabletop. This version features gold foil on the cover and page edges, a black ribbon page marker, and fabulous exclusive cover art.

On top of that, 25 datasheet cards cover all the units in the Codex Supplement, plus the Combat Patrol datasheets and your Army Rule, while a new transfer sheet with 419 decals is also supplied. This set is available while stocks last.

Chapter Approved 2025-26: Mission Deck

Prepare for a brand-new season full of tense and exciting games of Warhammer 40,000 with the Chapter Approved 2025-26: Mission Deck, which comprises the core mission pack for Matched Play in the year ahead. New to this season are Challenger Cards which offer powerful new Stratagems and missions for players to even the odds. They work alongside the standard deployment maps, primary and secondary missions, and twist cards you’re used to.

Rules and deployment cards for 1,000-point Incursion games ensure tighter balance in smaller games, while new rules for Asymmetric missions are designed for a more casual approach suited to 2,000+ games. Also included are six 40mm cardboard tokens designed for use as objectives and a 12-page rules insert on how to use the deck.

Warhammer 40,000: Crusade: Armageddon

Crusade is the way to play narrative Warhammer 40,000, and the latest 128-page supplement pulls our focus back to Armageddon. A warp anomaly known as the Red Angel’s Gate pours untold horrors onto a planet already deeply scarred by endless war. As the Imperium attempts to hold back an invasion of World Eaters, you can grow your own army across a dedicated Crusade campaign designed to represent the furious battle for the Fire Wastes. The book includes new crusade badges, battle traits, champions, and crusade relics, alongside 16 missions. A six-page gatefold includes rules references and pages you can copy for your own use.

Whether you’re defending Armageddon to the end, attempting to hasten its destruction, or just profiteering from the carnage, you can go all in and secure the Collector’s edition – which features a soft-touch cover with details picked out in gold foil, printed page edges, and a black ribbon bookmark. These will be available while stocks last.

Battlezone: Manufactorum Terrain

Three pieces of Warhammer 40,000 terrain are also on the way. First up is a Thermoexchanger Shrine, clearly the High Gothic terminology for an immersion heater – stop fiddling with it in the middle of battle or there will be no hot water left! The Sub-cloister and Storage Fane are two ruined building husks with fancy names that hint at their mysterious purpose (hiding units), while the Autochoral Transmitter must be what they call tannoys in the 41st Millennium – “clean up on objective three please, someone’s left Tyranid guts on the floor”.
