Heroes & Villains: Bohdan Lesnoi
This week’s Heroes & Villains lore drop is all about the enigmatic and magnetic Bohdan Lesnoi, Apostle of the Witch.

Bohdan’s full Heroes & Villains lore entry is available now in the app, and it’s one of the most unsettling entries we’ve dropped yet.
“A cacophonous shadow drapes itself over the canopies of the forests of Umbrey, shrill cackling punctuating the air as a murder of crows descends. A lone robed figure passes beneath the grim procession, and each village gathers to meet him with a mixture of wonderment and dread as he approaches. His eyes are inescapable, his voice and demeanor commanding, and they eagerly accept his words of salvation as though there were no other choice.
The figure’s supernatural charisma can deftly sway the hearts and minds of even hardened opponents, but the message of his words is what reaches the people. The Umbrean citizens yearn for a return to their ancient glory, and thanks to him, a new path avails itself, should they have the courage to grasp it..”

ICYMI: Warmachine 3D drops some extreme heat
Missed Saturday’s Warmachine 3D update? Don’t worry — we’ve got the full sitrep on June’s STL reinforcements right here.
For the full breakdown (and a closer look at what’s waiting in your print queue), check out the full blog update.
This month brings a gritty mix of Gravedigger defences, Ghost Dog variants, and Cephalyx horrors ready to hit your tabletop — or your nightmares.
First up, there’s Captain Cynthia Rosko – Ghost Dogs Variant. Fast, deadly, and built for precision shooting, this version of Rosko makes a bold centrepiece for any Cygnaran force.
The Gravedigger Defenses & Objectives add trench warfare flair to your battlefield, with wall of sandbags, ammo caches and mission markers perfect for narrative or competitive play.
Then there’s the Gravedigger Terrain Set: Security Checkpoint, which includes a full train with modular tracks and a bunker system for hunkering down in the checkpoint — ideal for ambushes, escorts, or cinematic last stands.
Rounding out the set, the Drudge Conduits & Mind Bender deliver some truly twisted Cephalyx creations, combining flesh, metal, and psychic menace.

Releasing Monday: Hellslingers & SKS-6

SKS-6 – Khador’s most covert killers. These ex-Assault Kommandos serve Section 3 and bring brutal tools, shadow ops, and warjack efficiency to the table
Releasing June 9, both the Hellslingers and SKS-6 Command Cadres are cast in high-quality HIPS plastic, fully playable in two different armies, and packed with beautifully detailed miniatures that look fantastic whether painted up or fresh off the sprue.

New MiniCrate: Successful Experiment
Alchemy, as it turns out, is more of an art than a science—and the Crucible Guard have always been happy to blur the line.
This month’s Minicrate miniature is a twisted triumph of transformation: Successful Experiment, a new alternate sculpt riffing on the disturbingly beefy Failed Experiment unit.
It’s also a showcase of just how close "progress" and "monstrosity" can really be. Want one? Subscribe to MiniCrate by June 27 to secure your specimen — and get a new exclusive model each month.
