The new Armageddon box is coming with a bunch of updated and new miniatures. Today we get a look at the new Vanguard Veterans!<\/p>\n

Gearing up for the new edition means new miniatures are on the way. Games Workshop is bringing back classic units and updating them with the Armageddon Launch Box. Now we got a tease of what\u2019s on the way but today we get a closer look at the new Vanguard Veterans.<\/p>\n

While this one was painted up like a Blood Angel it\u2019s important to remember all the Space Marines in the box are going to be Chapter agnostic. There\u2019s not specific chapter markings so you can paint them how you want. That said, there\u2019s still lots of cool things to look at with this miniature.<\/p>\n

The golden helmet marks out this Blood Angel as a veteran. He\u2019s also wielding an impressive master-crafted weapon and a plasma pistol, and his armour is festooned with additional iconography and a crux terminatus, just to underline his status within the Chapter.<\/p>\n

I really like the fact that it\u2019s a Primaris Marine with the newer Jump Packs now. It makes sense. Plus I think we all collectively knew that GW was going to be updating\/replacing the classic Marine units with Primaris versions anyhow. That said, I do think it\u2019s funny we still have this Primaris Veteran Vanguard member leaping off a tactical rock just like the Assault Intercessors with Jump Packs.<\/p>\n

Anyhow, the fancier master-crafted Power Sword does look the part and so does the Plasma Pistol. But my favorite detail is the shoulder pad:<\/p>\n

He\u2019s rocking the Crux Terminatus and that\u2019s an important distinction. That\u2019s how you know he\u2019s a legit Veteran. You have to earn that mark and I\u2019m glad to see it on a Vanguard Veteran. The only thing that would have made this even better is if we could have seen the rest of the squad\u2026<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to have to get a copy of this launch box\u2026<\/p>\n
