Warhammer 40k Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Wrath Of The Soulforge King (Chaos vs Dark Angels Boxed Set)

Product Information

Either way, it should hopefully have some decent value inside and will let you get the new models before they can be scored separately. While this will get you a bunch of new minis, the question is, what kind of value is inside the new Soul Forge King box set? As I’ve said at a hundred points throughout this review already, the Azrael mini is a work of art – but the sheer standard and ultra-quality of this figure serves in part to draw attention to the fact that the Deathwing Terminators are beginning to show their age. Miniature sculpting has come on exponentially over the last few years, and whilst the quality of miniatures we see GW producing are world-leading in design and quality, some of the older parts of their catalogue are now starting to look a little outdated. That said, whilst the Deathwing Terminators are starting to show their age, I actually found myself adoring the kit for its myriad builds and oodles of details – even if they do look a little out of date.

Saturday Pre-orders – Vashtorr the Arkifane Takes Matters

Here’s everything you get in the Wrath of the Soul Forge King box, straight from Games Workshop’s webstore listing for this product: The warp is a vast and unknowable place, a domain of dangerous daemons and devious deities. The four Ruinous Powers do not have a monopoly on godhood, and certain minor* entities such as Vashtorr the Arkifane are working towards an ultimate aim: true apotheosis. It’s through his alliance with Abaddon, however, that the one known as the Soul Forge King is closer to his goal than most. The Venomcrawler and Obliterators are a trio of impressive miniatures that serve an important function in this box. Alone, Vashtorr, a towering monstrosity of warpforged machine and daemonic muscle, would stand out. He would be an odd inclusion alongside a bunch of Chaos Space Marines or similar. However, side-by-side with the Venomcrawler and Obliterators, where he sits within the wider Chaosphere makes a lot more sense. This guy helps make these things – he’s one of the twisted minds behind all he disturbing meat-machines that the Forces of Chaos field in the 41st Millennium. Maybe he’s even the O.G. designer. The only thing I would want here is Azrael. Dont get me wrong - I love me some terminators too but I have probably close to 100 and I also dont need any more intercessors. The Chaos Cultists are another fairly new kit, so for the most part hold their own against the other recent releases in the box. Not only are they’re a fun kit that creates a range of satisfyingly simple yet quite pleasing models, they are well-sculpted with plenty of variation from figure to figure. Each Cultist is also only made of a few parts, so they’re very straightforward to assemble which is always a blessing.The narrative of this box ties into the third book in the Arks of Omen series, Arks of Omen: Vashtorr, which contains missions that will help you recreate this momentous battle. The three heroes of the Battle of Osgiliath boxed set arrive as a standalone group – the Rangers of Ithilien – for the first time. Faramir excels as a commander with plenty of Heroic Actions at his disposal, while Madril and Damrod are cost-effective heroes for Good armies.

Wrath of The Soulforge King - Firestorm Games

The artwork on this one is gorgeous and depicts the forces of Chaos going toe-to-toe with Azrael and his warriors. If you missed it, we look at the latest pricing and values of the new Warhammer 40k box sets in separate posts below: But parts of the box do feel like more of an exercise in quantity over quality. All the models in the box are nice, sure, but by comparison do feel a little like safe choices. The Chaos Cultists – which good-quality models – are dull by immediate comparison. The Dark Angels don’t get off scott-free either. There are a few fiddly parts to these figures – particularly the Venomcrawler, which has a number of thin spines running along it. Do be careful when clipping these out to construct them, as you might break them. Warhammer 40,000: Wrath of the Soul Forge King Review – Price and Availability Deathwing Terminators, which can also be built as Deathwing Knights or a Deathwing Terminator Command SquadThe Azrael miniature is a masterclass in showing why Games Workshop are so frequently credited with creating the best miniatures in the world. The detail on the figure’s sculpt is sublime – and the face, in particular, is incredible. Warhammer 40,000 uncovered Space Marine heads often tend to look a little similar: you know what I mean, that over-exaggerated underbite, the anvil-like jaw, the shaved head. Azrael, however, is a distinct character: there are age lines around his eyes, a drawn, grim mouth, close-cropped hair. A very conscious effort has been made to make Azrael look older, and thus he is shows to be a character that oozes experience and is resolute in spite of his age.

Soul Forge King – What Went Into Designing Sculpting the Soul Forge King – What Went Into Designing

Steve: Vashtorr sits in a unique design space – he avoids many of the traditional Chaos Space Marine and Daemon Prince motifs. He’s not an ascended mortal but a wholesale machine-daemon, so we drew from the Daemon Engines like the Forgefiend and Venomcrawler, and more machine-like Chaos elements such as the Helbrute and the Obliterators. There are a couple of variant builds. The Watcher in the Dark (the little guy with whom Azrael shares his base) can either be carrying his sword hilt or helmet, which in turn means Azrael can either be built either helmeted or bare-headedIn addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising.

Warhammer 40,000: Wrath of the Soul Forge King Review – Contents He is a striking monstrosity, resplendent in all kinds of details. His ghastly, mutated and augmented appearance stands in contrast with the the orthodox quasi-religious motifs found across the Dark Angels in the box. He is a towering horror, and another sublime sculpt. That Vashtorr is that much more spindly than the daemon princes with which he will no doubt be compared gives him a totally different energy. This is a cold, calculating creature, not a mountain of muscle, magic, and fury. His character is immediately evident from the way he looks, which helps establish him as a presence on any tabletop battlefield or collection shelf.

LVO 2023 – Vashtorr the Arkifane Invades the Dark Angels

Vashtorr the Arkifane is a hideous daemonic amalgamation of flesh and machine, while Supreme Grand Master Azrael has crossed the Rubicon Primaris. [2] Contents The pioneers of MKVI ‘Corvus’ armour get their beakie helmets at long last – and it’s been worth the wait! Strike from the shadows in style with this set of 11 resin heads, including three sets of three designs, a bare head, and a single option with a truly mesmerising feathered crest. The machinations of Vashtorr the Arkifane enter a deadlier phase today as he emerges from the soul forges to take the field in person – and the Dark Angels are the first to feel the heat of his wrath. You can choose to assemble the model with a bare head, and the Watcher in the Dark carrying Azrael’s Lion helmet, or donning the Lion helmet, with the Watcher carrying a sword hilt instead. Azrael’s face sculpt is amazing and very characterful, and looks even better in person than on the ‘Eavy Metal paint job. The banner is also fully sculpted with sharp details. The other stuff Warhammer Community: How did you go about designing something with little precedence in the setting?

I personally quite like those Deathwing scultps, it's a fairly popular kit, so I think adding them is fairly sensible.
