Baneblade for an Imperial Commissar
So you’re an Imperial Commissar and you need a personal transport.
No way are you going to be happy with a Chimera or a Leman Russ, no you need the biggest and the best, you want a Baneblade super heavy tank.
This very nice Baneblade modified for an Imperial Commissar was on display at GamesDay 2007.

Epic Imperial Guard BaneBlades
These wonderful Epic BaneBlades are from Simon’s collection.
We often forget how well sculptured these models are (or should that be were).
With today’s plastic 40K scale BaneBlade these huge monstrous war machines can now grace the table for Warhammer 40K. Next year we’ll see the plastic Shadowsword and Ork Stompa and the gaming tables will never be the same again.
Imperial Guard "Comedy" BaneBlade
Today I had my first game of Warhammer 40K fifth edition. Set in the ruins of an Imperial City, a force of Orks tried to take over a ruined tank factory. An opposing force of Imperial Guard were tasked with stopping them.
In turn four, I allowed Simon to bring on his new Imperial Guard BaneBlade.
It was interesting playing to the new rules, you have to remind yourself to remove your assumptions based on the fourth edition.
Simon’s BaneBlade which is nearly finished is very BIG! He’s done a really nice job on it and it looked very impressive on the battlefield. Though it couldn’t hit much on the table and when it did, it did very little damage. It actually did more damage to itself when its forward Demolisher Cannon “missed” its target and hit itself!
I expect in the next game it will do more damage – I am going to need something to take it out!

Moving through the ruins…
A column of Imperial Guard Artillery move through the ruins of an Imperial city, with their flank guarded by a BaneBlade.
The models are from the Epic 40000 era and are very well detailed.

This is the Epic 40000 version which is now ten years old.
Though of course there were earlier versions for the previous version of the Epic rules, Space Marine.

Three New Imperial Super Heavy Tanks
Brand new and much anticipated are the Arkurion Pattern Stormsword, Shadowsword and Stormblade. These three new model kits are complete kits that use some of the sprues from the new GW Plastic Baneblade kit along with additional new resin components replacing the upper hulls, main weapon, engine deck and fighting compartment. These fantastic new super heavy tanks were designed by Daren Parrwood, and make fine additions to any collection whether you`re after the titan-killing firepower of the Shadowsword for your Apocalypse force or just after cool modelling project to test your skills on. These new super-heavies are available either individually or as part of special bundle deals of three to bring terror to your foes! You can find more details of our bundle deals here, and if you order the deal you’ll get free express shipping worldwide.
Here you can see pictures of the Shadowsword, Stormblade and Stormsword painted by the talented Phil Stutchinskas. You`ll be able to see further examples of Phil`s work along with a feature on how he achieved these stunning paint jobs, together with other Forge World projects from our Studio team in our forthcoming painting and modelling book, but more details on that in future newsletters!
These three new Super Heavy Tank kits (and bundles) are available for pre-order now for release the week commencing the 25th of February.
New for Aeronautica Imperialis
We also have three new releases for the Tau AI range this Newsletter in the shape of the AX-2-2 Tiger shark Drone Carrier, the Remora Stealth Drones and Aerial Mines, which you can see pictures of here. The addition of these aircraft adds even greater depth to the Tau Air Cadres, with the Tiger Shark deploying their deadly drone fighter cargo directly into the battle, while the aerial mines are fantastic defences in scenarios and campaigns.
Full rules for these aircraft, and the Typha Conflict it which they are first used in battle can be found in our Tactica Aeronautica expansion book, which (this seems a good time to mention!) can currently be purchased in a special bundle deal for a substantial saving along with the Aeronautica Imperialis rulebook on or online store.
These models are available for pre-order now for release the week commencing the 25th of February.
