We’re fourteen days into the reason for the season for Warhammer 40K players — Grotmas has been fast and heavy with its many gifts, and we’ve been real busy in the workshop figuring out what all these new toys do and how to use them. As of this morning, we have 17 new Detachments, a new Index, and a whole Balance Update sitting under the tree, along with some new Regiments of Renown for Age of Sigmar in the stockings over the fire.
Starting with the Detachments:
- 12/1 – Detachment Focus: Death Guard Flyblown Host
- 12/2 – Detachment Focus: Lion’s Blade Task Force
- 12/3 – Detachment Focus: Warrior Bioform Onslaught
- 12/4 – Detachment Focus: Hexwarp Thrallband
- 12/5 – Detachment Focus: Haloscreed Battle Clade
- 12/6 – Detachment Focus: Starshatter Arsenal

And, because why not, a little something for Age of Sigmar players as well — some cross-Grand Alliance Regiments of Renown.
There’s gonna be more tomorrow, and more next week, and even more the week after that until we’re through to the other side, so stay tuned for where Grotmas is going next with the experts at Goonhammer.
