The Octarius campaign continues for Warhammer 40,000. War Zone Octarius Book 2: Critical Mass will be available delivering the conclusion to the epic conflict.
The book contains a codex supplement for the Blood Axes, updated Index rules for Rogue Trader crews, a Speed Freeks Army of Renown, and rules for embarking on an Octarius Sector Campaign with new Legendary missions, branching mission trees, and powerful Crusade relics up for grabs. There’s also rules for looted vehicles in Ork Crusade armies!
You can get it in a collector’s edition or the standard edition.

Also coming is Klovis the Redeemer and his Deacon Malakev. Cut through the faithless with a master-crafted eviscerator. He’ll fire up your gang and cut through the others.
How about some birds? Sheen Birds are a nuisance to the enemy with their beaks and claws. They can fly around to easily get to the enemy and make sure no one is safe no matter high up they’re hiding.

There will also be a booster pack from Forge World for you to add some variety to your team! It features two alternate sculpts for Bloodborn Marauder Linemen and two alternate Khorngors.
And even more carnage is coming! Two Khornate Star Players, Max Spleenripper and Scyla Anfingrimm, are coming to the pitch!

Spike! Journal 13 unleashes all of this with the background and history of Khorne teams in Blood Bowl. It has all the rules for fielding your new players along with sample rosters and more!
