The supreme monarch of Nehekhara and the other Tomb Kings are going to be major players in the stories we will tell in Warhammer: the Old World, and it has been wonderful to come back to them after all these years. This time, we’re going to take a look at something that will be extremely familiar to long-time fans – the Land of the Dead and the tyrannical rule of Settra the Imperishable, the Undying King of Khemri. If you want to see how they revealed the return of the Tomb Kings, you can check that out here. This time, they talk more about how they actually built the regions of the Tomb Kings and a little more about what we can expect from the faction. More Details For Warhammer Old World Tomb Kings: (February 6th, 2023) The weapons definitely have that classic feel but look well-updated! It’s also good to see some of the bigger bladed weapons, as they are easy to just scale up for some of the bigger monsters. First up is an ornate spear with wings projecting out from the shaft – a feature designed to prevent an impaled victim from sliding too far down the blade! Above the spear is a spiked flail decorated with the symbol of a scarab towards the bottom of the handle – a common icon in Khemri and in Numas (known as The Scarab City), in particular. Tomb Kings and Liche Priests have always carried weapons and artefacts of exquisite quality and artifice. It’s always nice to have more options, and they mention these will be plastic kits, so hopefully, each has plenty of spare bits! For the more traditionally-minded knight, however, there is a swathe of sword options, each with classic Bretonnian iconography on the crossguard or pommel. While the sword and lance are the preferred arms of the nobility, some knights – especially those from Brionne – prefer the head-hewing potential of a battleaxe. There is also plenty of room on the shield face to display the heraldry of whichever high-ranking noble your knights have pledged to. The fleur-de-lys is a common symbol, and features prominently upon the metallic trim of these shields. It is a little suspicious pretty much everything we’ve seen has been for Bretonnians and Tomb Kings recently, which makes us think they are the most likely for a starter box perhaps… These large helmets feature just a small selection of the fantastical birds and beasts you’ll see when the Bretonnian army marches to war. A knight famed for being stubborn in the face of adversity might sport a horned bull, while a noble renowned for their love of hunting may embellish their helm with a pair of antlers. Bretonnian knights commonly adorn their helmets with creatures that appear on their family heraldry, or those they believe they share a personality trait with. For now, though, let’s check out the new info from Warhammer Community.įresh from the forges of fair Bretonnia come new helmets, weapons and shields.
