Though the identity of the builders of these technical marvels remains a mystery, it has been suggested by certain Imperial savants that they were constructed by the Old Ones or the Aeldari for use in their ancient war with the Necrons. Indeed they are obliquely mentioned in Aeldari Mythology as the "Talismans of Vaul," objects of great fear and revulsion. Hostiles in grey plastic: Obsidius Mallex, Chaos Lord; 2 Chaos Space Marines of the Servants of the Abyss; 4 Chaos Beastmen; 4 Ur-Ghuls; 4 Negavolt Cultists; 2 Rogue Psykers; 4 Spindle Drones and 14 Traitor Guardsmen.

The geothermal stress caused by the fortress' impact ultimately caused Cadia to rip itself apart. If these incredible miniatures look familiar to you, it may be because they were first seen in the tie-in game Warhammer 40,000: Combat Arena. They’ve finished their journey to Precipice, and now they’re ready to scour the taint of Chaos with extreme prejudice.

Both of the new models have rules for Warhammer 40,000 too. The Traitor Commissar is able to ‘encourage’ a nearby unit of Traitor Guardsmen… But the galaxy is a vast and lonely place. For every sector abuzz with life, there are countless more that are dead zones. Even as wars reach into every corner of the galaxy, great swathes still lie silent, untouched and empty. The new Traitor Commissar is absolutely deadly at close range, using his power fist to pulverise any explorers who get too close. Seriously, keep him at a safe distance! Teamwork has never been more important, now that you’ll have to face down powerful new enemies. These new explorers offer additional opportunities to work together and enhance the entire team, including the original adventurers. Deadly ThreatsUltramarines • White Scars • Iron Hands • Raven Guard • Salamanders • Imperial Fists • Silver Templars Borewyrm Infestations also share the Ambull’s Rapid Tunnelling ability and are harder to target with ranged weapons by virtue of their size. Ambulls and Borewyrm Infestations are perfect for narrative or open play, though we’ve included points if that’s how you like to balance your games. That got us thinking about some cool ideas for missions that could feature these fearsome creatures. Here are just a few: Cultist Firebrands are absolutely deadly at mid-range, and they also inflame the zeal of nearby Cultist hostiles. Their bodies are swollen with infernal power… so let’s just say you don’t want to be standing close to one when they’re killed…

It also has two handy abilities that enable it to rapidly heal and relocate across the battlefield at great speed.

Among those individuals currently on Precipice seeking their own destinies within the fortress are such notables as the Rogue Trader Janus Draik, the Navigator Agent Espern Locarno, the Ecclesiarchy Priest Taddeus the Purifier, the Aeldari Ranger Amallyn Shadowguide, the Kroot mercenary Dahyak Grekh, the ancient Man of Iron UR-025, the Chaos Lord Obsidius Mallex and the Ork Freebooter Skarburn Zapdakka.
