Other announcements made by Games Workshop include two new featured Warhammer 40K miniatures that tie into the upcoming Orks and Adeptus Custodes codexes due for release later this year. The Orks will get a new Big Meks miniature, an Ork with a variety of new weaponry including an anti-air rocket, while the Adeptus Custodes will get a new Shield Captain who is able to defend against an entire army on his own. Both will be released alongside their respective codexes this spring.
Warhammer: Age of Sigmar will get a new line of Darkoath miniatures, led by featured character Gunnar Brand. The Darkoath are human characters pledged to Chaos, although the Darkoath in particular seem to tow a fine line between serving the forces of Chaos without being consumed by its corruptive forces. While it appears that Gunnar Brand (a Viking-esque marauder who has appeared in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar media) will be the first to be released later this spring, a video tease showcased several other Darkoath figures, hinting at a refreshed or expanded line or perhaps even a new army.
