NEWS: Warmachine: New Pre-orders, a preview of Septembers Tribes STLS and a fab Mercenary strides to the fore and more - Steamforged Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

Steamforged Games released a ton of items for pre-order on Tuesday for Warmachine that will be released on the 29th September 2026.  There's so much we don't know if we have the space for everything:

The Gathering Darkness:

Few can claim the absolute mastery over life and death achieved by Harasheth. The life essence of both friend and foe are fuel for sorceries that knit the flesh of the fallen and force them to rise again in utter subservience to the whims of their master. His very presence heralds corruption and decay, the misery of his foes a delicious nectar that feeds his ravenous appetite.

Gathering Darkness is an excellent entry point to Dusk Fane of Nyrro, providing you with a resilient attrition force that excels in both Command and Skirmish level Warmachine games, as well as powerful options when constructing a larger army to take on bigger battles.

What’s in the box?

Harasheth, the Gorged Darkness (Warlock)

Vordak (Heavy Warbeast)

Riven (Solo)

Razorbat Alpha (Solo)

The Forsaken (Solo)

Styrge Hounds (Unit)

Hollowed (Unit)

The Merciless (Unit)

This box set can be pre-ordered here.

If you want any of the mini's that are featured in the list on their own you can pre-order them here.

Captain Barl "Demolisher" Dunax:

Captain Barl “Demolisher” Dunax has spent his career figuring out exactly where to put them. Once an engineer in the Searforge Commission and a student of legendary warcaster Durgen Madhammer, Dunax has fought across the Iron Kingdoms and picked up a considerable amount of demolition expertise along the way.

Now he's putting that experience up for hire, bringing his knowledge of demolitions and fortifications to Gravediggers, Winter Korps, Kithguard and Rhul Guard armies.

Need something demolished? Captain Dunax is your dwarf.

Hire the right dwarf for the job. Pre-order Captain Dunax now.
