Eye of Terror Unleashes New Rules for Morne, Defilers, and Mutilators

Warhammer Community previews three Chaos Space Marines units—Kravek Morne, Mutilators, and Defilers—featuring new datasheets: Morne wields Last Argument and a power fist, can single out an enemy unit, and remains a devastating frontline presence; Mutilators can morph their arms into lethal melee weapons, Deep Strike into enemy lines, and use Crushing Charge with a re-roll for a 9" charge; Defilers receive a size and stat update with expanded ranged options, including legion-specific variants like a Thousand Sons Defiler that leverages Fire Overwatch. All three are headed for pre-orders alongside Eye of Terror: Reign of Iron expansion, with more details teased for tomorrow.

Forge your own Warhammer 40,000 heroes with Crucible of Champions rules

The Warhammer Community article introduces Crucible of Champions, a new set of rules in The Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant that lets players craft bespoke Warlord protagonists for their 40,000 armies. Starting from an archetype, players add a Specialism, abilities, and a choice of weapons to shape a character’s keywords, roles, and point cost, with examples like Rogue Trader Kristovahl Dynost III, Glitcha da Psykamekk, and Zar Tahyed. The rules emphasize flexibility and storytelling, allowing kooky combinations in friendly matches, and note that the first two weapons are free with subsequent weapons costing five points each. Pre-orders for The Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant are teased as part of the narrative.
