New Empire Book Sneak Peak
6 Plastic kits:
Karl Franz on Death Claw 1 fig. plastic
Empire Celestial Hurricanium/Luminark of Hish 1 fig. plastic (2 Rare slot magic platforms)
Empire Demigryph Knights 3 fig. plastic
Captain plastic 1 fig.
Engineer plastic
Volkar on war altar plastic 1 fig
Finecast:
Witch hunter 1 fig resin
Markus Wolfhart 1 fig resin
Empire amber wizard 1 fig resin splash release
Warrior priest 1 fig resin
Rumors
"Supposedly, Karl Franz will be one of the giant models that stands 6" tall and 9" wide. The War Alter will be roughly 7" tall as well. Looks like 2 big center piece models! It sounds like the Celestial war engine will provide buffs for your troops and trigger thunderstorms on the battle field while the Luminark will provide magic defense and shoot blinding rays of light at your enemy. The demi griffon knights will be their new monstrous cavalry. Any new empire players will be able to field an all plastic army and will have all of the models in the army book available to them as well."

Re: New Empire Book Sneak Peak
Mortars took a hit - most put them on a shelf until 9th Edition.
Rocket Battery took a hit as it now always takes indirect fireing penalty.
Engineers took a hit - you now need to predeclare which war machine you will support before you shoot anything.
Traded the gun line out just in time
