 Sons of Horus Spartan Assault Tank

These Sons of Horus Spartan Assault Tanks were on display at Warhammer World.

The Spartan Assault Tank, often referred to as the Land Raider Spartan, is a formidable armoured vehicle designed to breach the most impenetrable enemy defences and deliver devastating blows with its payload of Legion Astartes infantry. Its nigh-impervious hull, capable of shrugging off even the most potent anti-tank weaponry, makes it a truly formidable war machine.

During the Great Crusade, the Spartan became an indispensable asset for the Legion Astartes. Its immense firepower and exceptional durability allowed it to lead the charge into the heart of enemy territory, paving the way for Legionaries to storm enemy fortifications. With a capacity to transport up to 26 Legionaries or 13 Terminators, the Spartan provided a mobile, armoured fortress that could be deployed rapidly to any sector of the battlefield.

Despite its massive size, the Spartan possesses a surprising degree of agility, enabling it to manoeuvre effectively in tight spaces and avoid enemy fire. Its combination of speed, firepower, and protection makes it a truly versatile and devastating weapon, capable of turning the tide of battle in favour of the Legion Astartes forces using it.

The Miniatures of Middle Earth

Various models from the Middle Earth ranges in the display cabinets at Warhammer World.

Deimos Pattern Whirlwind Scorpius

An ancient variant of the more common Whirlwind missile tank, the Scorpius was designed with a single purpose in mind – the destruction of heavily armoured infantry.

The Scorpius variant replaces the Whirlwind’s multiple missile launcher system with the intricate drum-fed scorpius launcher, whose implosive warheads are devastating to armoured infantry and light vehicles.

The Whirlwind Scorpius’ origins lie in the dark days of the first inter-Legion civil war and, in more recent times, it has become an all but forgotten relic amongst some Chapters as the ability to manufacture its complex munitions has become a forgotten art, but for other Chapters it still remains a potent weapon of war.

The Battle of Osgiliath

This amazing diorama was on display at Warhammer World.

The Battle of Osgiliath

The Battle of Osgiliath in the War of the Ring occurred at the ruined city of Osgiliath, shortly before the Siege of Gondor. The Orcs in East Osgiliath had been secretly constructing massive numbers of boats and rafts, and swelled with reinforcements from Harad they swarmed across the River Anduin to Gondor’s positions on the other bank. After heavy fighting, the garrison under Faramir and his troops were forced to flee, first to the Rammas Echor, which held out for a day and then to Minas Tirith itself.

Sons of Horus Sicaran Battle Tank

This Sons of Horus Sicaran Battle Tank was in the displays at Warhammer World.

The Sicaran, a formidable weapon in the Legiones Astartes arsenal, is a swift-moving destroyer tank capable of outflanking enemies and delivering devastating mid-range firepower. Despite its many variants, the core Sicaran battle tank remains a popular choice. Equipped with Herakles-pattern accelerator autocannons, it delivers a relentless barrage of high-velocity fire, capable of shredding both infantry and vehicles. Its advanced sensors allow it to track agile targets and identify weaknesses in enemy armor.

The Siege of the Craw

This Warhammer: Age of Sigmar diorama was on display at Warhammer World. It was created in 2021.

In the Realm of Beasts, the hordes of Destruction ferociously attack the Craw, a vault fashioned long ago to contain a vast arsenal of powerful weapons and relics. In their way stand the Hallowed Knights, faithful champions of the God-King Sigmar. As the heroic Stormcast Eternals take up their defensive positions for a valiant last stand, they are joined by the reptilian Seraphon, creatures of pure Order. But can even this alliance withstand Kragnos’ wrath?

They have a burning passion for glory, so will follow their idols, praise their words, rejoice in their acts of heroism, regardless of weather and geography.
