The models have been completely redesigned from older models, with revised and upscaled proportions that I think are very close to true scale, as you can see from my scale comparison:Įach of these 10 model squads comes on two identical sprues that build 5 Marines with bolters and chain-bayonets, plus a small accessories sprue. I’m a big fan of MkVI, so the choice suits me perfectly. The choice of MkVI armour was met with controversy online, but by the final stage of the Heresy, pretty much all legions had access to this advanced armour type. Next we find a whole 40 of the new “beakie” marines in MkVI Corvus armour. My favourite is the Praetor with the double-handed axe, which I HAVE to paint at some point for my collection 🙂 MkVI Tactical Squad The Praetors are generic with no Sons of Horus or Imperial Fists iconography, and can therefore be used for any legion (although they are certainly more suitable in style for some legions than others). There are no weapon options, but both models have a choice of either bare head or plumed helmet. These two models are extraordinarily cool and with their Artificer MkVI armour look as if they had sprung directly from John Blanche artworks. Review: The Horus Heresy Age of Darkness Launch Set Unboxing the models The Praetors Update 5th June 2022: We’ve expanded our unboxing post with a proper in-depth review here, so check it out: But as with the Indomitus and Dominion launch boxes, it’s my guess that the box won’t be a part of the range forever and I expect regular starter sets like 40k and Age of Sigmar to appear later, though this is all just my educated guess at this point. They also stated that the box wouldn’t be a limited release item and restocked as necessary. In the Open Day live stream it was announced that the price would be under £200, which would be an exceptionally good deal. In addition there is the book, a reference sheet, a transfer sheet for Sons of Horus and Imperial Fists, dice (including a scatter die), templates, and the good old red whipping erm measurement sticks. Included are 40 new MkVI Space Marine Legionaries, 2 Praetors, 1 new Contemptor Dreadnought, 1 new Spartan Assault Tank, and 10 of the existing Cataphractii Terminators. The Warhammer: The Horus Heresy Age of Darkness launch box is a massive, heavy box, bulging with models and the new hardcover Age of Darkness rulebook. This item was kindly provided by Games Workshop.
