Rule the battlefield with the Hellraker

Remember that ominous rumble last week? Not an earthquake. Cryx’s latest nightmare has surfaced: the Hellraker Colossal is up for pre-order now.

Razored mandibles, scything claws, barbed harpoons, and corrosive jets — it’s a death-worm that eats battlefields for breakfast. Rules are live today — update your app and start refining those Cryx Necrofactorium lists.

Hobby note: If you fancy painting along at NOVA, grab P3 Coal Black and Necrotite Green — Cryxian classics that make the nightmare empire pop.
NOVA Open awaits

If you’re heading to the NOVA Open, swing by booth 20. We’ve got P3 Paints demo tables, events run by the Tried & True crew, and plenty of Warmachine chat. Want to pick up a new army? Want to learn Warmachine? Booth 20 is the place. See you there!
Dice with style

Your rolls deserve better than tired cubes. Baron of Dice has brought stunning Warmachine-themed sets to NOVA.

Baron of Dice has brand-new designs for Old Umbrey, Dark Operations and more. If you’re not at NOVA, don’t worry — more ways to snag them are coming soon. Until then, check out the Warmachine dice range over on Baron of Dice.
Fresh out of the lab
![]()
Yesterday, we teased three all-new STL models coming in September, the Iconoclast Drudges. Playable in Dark Operations, these brutal Cephalyx drudges are built to take on the top-priority nuisances the hive has issues with.
September’s full Warmachine 3D pack lands on 1 September, with more previews coming this week. In the meantime, don’t miss the August collection — available until midnight on 31 August. Get it before it’s gone and warm up your printer.
Old Umbrey claws its way into battle

The Old Umbrey Core Expansion launches tomorrow (28 August in US/EU, 4 September in UK). Guided by the Old Witch herself, this expansion channels Khador’s ferocity through mysticism, lupine warbeasts, and warriors bound to their homeland’s fate.
Inside you’ll find Old Umbrey’s unique blend of primal magic and steel discipline: Lupine beasts awakened from within, Shearlings who wield and imbue the Old Witch’s gifts, and the stalwart Liegemen Wardens, axe and shield in hand, trained to endure, hold the line, and buy time for the killing blow.
Whether you’re looking to begin an Old Umbrey force or expand your Khador collection, the Old Umbrey Core expansion is the perfect set to build an army that’s a true force of nature.

Hobby note: With its mix of fur, steel, and bone, Old Umbrey rewards bold paint choices. Using P3 Khador Red and Solid Gold against natural tones, glowing runes, and savage hides will bring out that war-ready Umbrean ferocity.
Both paints are in the 10-paint P3 Starter Set. Perfect for prepping your painting desk to unleash Old Umbrey.
Iron Gauntlet update
Matched players, take heed: the Longshanks leaderboards have been refreshed for Iron Gauntlet. Check the rankings and see your standings.
Will you be making it to the finals at Lock & Load 2025 taking place at Warfaire weekend?

Don’t forget — there’s still time to get your badge for Lock & Load 2025. Immerse yourself in a weekend of Warmachine matched play, narrative events, RPG sessions, P3 Painting seminars, and more.

A new face for the Narcissar of Ruin

September’s MiniCrate exclusive gives a dark new look to one of Dusk’s most infamous warcasters. The alternative sculpt of Hazaroth, Narcissar of Ios reimagines him with all the menace and grandeur you’d expect from House Kallyss.
Available only through MiniCrate, this limited-edition model is a must-have for Dusk collectors — and an eye-catching leader if you already field the Dusk House Kallyss Core Expansion.
