Forge World Newsletter #331 - Heavy Weapons Squads and Weapons

Apologies that not much has been happening on the blog this past week, Jury Duty is calling and spending too much time on that, still onwards with the post.

As always all the important bits below:

=========================================
 
Hi there, In this week’s newsletter we’ve got another fantastic selection of Horus Heresy releases for you: four eagerly-anticipated new Heavy Weapon sets and three new Space Marine armour sets to allow the Legiones Astartes to add Heavy Support squads to their ceramite-clad ranks. We’re also adding to our range of Horus Heresy bundles with no less than nine great new sets.

Space Marine Legion Heavy Support Squads and Heavy Weapon Sets           
The Legiones Astartes are provided with devastating, mobile firepower by their heavy support squads; units of Space Marines bearing the heaviest weapons available and tasked with smashing armoured vehicles apart and shattering hordes of enemy troops in withering hails of fire.


Will Hayes has designed three Legion Heavy Support squads, clad in MkII, MkIII and MkIV armour. Each kit contains enough parts to build five multi-part resin Space Marines, comprising five different sets of legs, and shoulder pads, arms, torsos and helmets.
Will has also designed four new Heavy Weapon sets for use with these squads. The Legion Missile Launcher Set, Lascannon Set, Multi-melta Set and Plasma Cannon Set each contain five detailed resin shoulder-mounted weapons for use with the MkII, MkIII and MkIV Heavy Support squads.
World Eaters Legion Brass Etch Symbols
The World Eaters Legion, and their Primarch Angron, were the most savage and dreaded of the Legiones Astartes, and their assignment to a Crusade fleet or warzone meant only one thing for the enemies of mankind: extermination.
Designed by Paul Rudge, this sheet of World Eaters Legion Etched Brass Symbols is packed with over forty detailed brass Legion symbols, perfect for use with our full range of Space Marine Legion Infantry and Vehicles to further personalise your XIIth Legion force.
All these new Space Marine kits are available to order now for immediate despatch.
New Horus Heresy Bundles
The Horus Heresy bundles that we released in November 2012 are still proving to be incredibly popular, so we’ve decided to leave them available for the foreseeable future and have also added several more:
The Legion MkII Assault Squad Set containing twenty Space Marines and a MkIV Power Weapon Set.
The Legion MkIV Assault Squad Set containing twenty Space Marines and a MkIV Power Weapon Set.
The Legion Deimos Pattern Rhino Set containing three of these iconic transports, ideal for creating a mechanised assault element within your Legion force.
