World Eaters Reveal Three Bloodthirsty Detachments for the New Warhammer 40,000 Edition

Warhammer Community previews three World Eaters detachments for the new Warhammer 40,000 edition: Brazen Engines, Butchers of Khorne, and Vessels of Wrath. Each offers unique buffs and synergies—daemon vehicles with Terror of Khorne, upgraded Maulerfiends with Cleave 2, and Terminator/character boosts via Blessings of Khorne and related stratagems (Apoplectic Clarity, Archslaughterer, Aspire to Infamy)—enabling either a hard-hitting elite core or a brutal mixed army, with the option to combine into powerful 1‑detachment (1DP) or 2DP formations.

Holier Orders: Adepta Sororitas Unveil New 40k Detachments

Warhammer Community previews three new Adepta Sororitas detachments—Chorus of Condemnation, Celestian Sacresants, and Sanctified Orators—each bringing unique buffs: Condemnatory Psalms lets Fly infantry reveal and condemn hidden enemies (boosting detection range and aiding short-range fire), with Canoness with Jump Pack able to Deep Strike (range reduced to 8”). Exorcist stratagems gain +1 to hit against the targeted unit. Celestian Sacresants gain Holy Quest bonuses (+1 BS/WS) and the Writ of Compunction upgrade to add OC, plus Faithful Fortitude 1CP to weather mortal wounds. Sanctified Orators focus on upgrading key Characters (Rite of Revelation, Sermon of Intolerance, Chorus of Repudiation) via the Hagiomnifex, without counting toward total enhancements. All three detachments cost 1 Detachment Point and can be combined with other detachments to form a 2,000-point army; the piece hints at pairing Chorus of Condemnation with Bringers of Flame for extra close-range firepower.

Orks Unleash Twin Speedwaaagh Detachments for Warhammer 40,000

Warhammer Community reveals two new Ork Detachments for Warhammer 40,000: Speedwaaagh! and Blitz Brigade. Speedwaaagh! centers on turbo-boosted advances up to 24" in a straight line (no pivots or multi-line moves) with accompanying [ASSAULT] weapons, plus Mek‑crafted enhancements like the Kustom Shokk Box and stratagems such as Ded Killy Construction and Speshul Ammo to boost melee and anti‑monster/anti‑vehicle power; Warbikers can become Battleline when paired with Wazdakka Gutsmek. Blitz Brigade focuses on disembarking antics and rapid charges, featuring Eager for the Fight, plus traits like Yooz in Trouble Now and Mount Up, Ladz to shuttle infantry back into transports. Both detachments include rules to re‑roll Advance and Charge for disembarked units and offer various stratagems to keep vehicles alive. Details and downloads will follow on Warhammer Community’s site, as the Armageddon: The Return of Yarrick previews continue with two new Space Marine detachments.
