Pre-order – Connor “Boom Boom” McCoy
Polishing his shells and waxing his ‘stache Connor is gearing up for pre-order May 9, Boom Boom is a Warcaster bringing heavy ordnance to Cygnar’s Gravediggers. He’s practically spiffing and bringing striding thunder to the table.
Standing proud on an 80mm base, McCoy isn’t just making an entrance — he’s currently the biggest warcaster model in the game, rivaling even the necroharvester in tabletop presence.
If your playstyle leans towards crowd control, big guns and bigger moustaches you’ll want McCoy in your Cygnar Gravediggers roster.

Want a peek under the hood? Captain Connor “Boom Boom” McCoy’s rules are now available in the Warmachine App
Armed with a Heavy Mortar and a pair of Organ Guns, McCoy excels at blasting infantry out of cover, off objectives, and — quite literally off the table. His Organ Guns come with Thunderbolt, sending unlucky targets flying on a hit, and flat on their backs if he rolls a critical.
McCoy’s Full Blast feat turns his army into a forward-charging hammerhead. Models in his control range get Cavalry, +2 SPD and Reposition [5″], letting your forces surge up the board or tactically line up your next move.

New Command Cadres coming to pre-order – Khador SKS-6 & Cygnar Hellslingers
Up for pre-order tomorrow: the Cygnar Hellslingers and Khador SKS-6 Command Cadres step out of the Two Player Starter Set and into your collection.
These two Cadre boxes replace the Two Player Starter Set, which will remain available only while stocks last — so if you’ve had your eye on that set now’s the time to grab it!
The Hellslingers are Cygnar’s elite gun mages — fast, precise, and led by Major Allister Caine himself. If you like tactical flexibility and cinematic firepower, they’ve got it in spades.
The SKS-6 hit from the opposite end of the spectrum: heavy, disciplined, and devastatingly efficient under Kapitan Zahara Vilkul. This is Khador at its most ruthless.
Each box includes the full cadre — characters, solos, units, and everything you need to get straight into the action.
If you’re looking to build a new army, these sets are an excellent introduction to building a Cygnar or Khador force.
New lore – Saga: Wrath of Caine Part 2
Allister Caine’s story continues this week with the next instalment of Saga: Wrath of Caine. Part 2 picks up as Cynthia Rosko uncovers a powerful Orgoth relic beneath Dorset Valley, while Caine sets his rogue rescue plan into motion.
„Caine held his breath as the wind rushed by his ears. He was falling, toes pointed down, arms extended at his sides with his Spellstorm pistols tightly gripped, one in each fist. Below him, he saw only cloudbanks—a billowy swirl underlit by flashes of luminous green.“
Saga: Wrath of Caine – Part 2 is available to read for subscribers in the Warmachine app now. Fall into the action and follow the Hellslingers into the heart of danger.

Revealed at Adepticon 2025 the bestial side of Khador, Old Umbrey bears its fangs.
Old Umbrey is more than just a force. It’s a reckoning. Under the watchful eye of Zevanna Agha, the Old Witch of Khador, the wilds rise—not with steel and gears, but with fang, claw, and ancient magic.
