So here's the cut and paste of the newsletter's text.

Retribution of Scyrah Banshee/Daemon/Sphinx Heavy Myrmidon kit (plastic) MSRP $34.99

PIP 35034

Recently unleashed upon the enemies of the Retribution, House Vyre’s myrmidons
were developed with distinct capabilities all their own. The Banshee emits a high-
pitched wail that prevents enemy spellcasters from using their magic, while its
shrieking cannon hurls enemies aside with raw sonic power. A powerful assault
myrmidon, the Daemon smashes foes with its rune fists or blasts them with
concentrated arcane energy from its vortex cannon. The Sphinx rends its enemies
with twin force claws or uses its runespear cannon to shatter an enemy’s mystical
defenses, making it more vulnerable to magical attacks.

This box set contains three color stat cards and one multi-part heavy myrmidon
plastic model (PIP 35034). Included are all the components to assemble one of
three heavy myrmidon variants: Banshee, Daemon, or Sphinx. A player may field
any number of these heavy myrmidons in a Retribution of Scyrah army.

Retribution of Scyrah Hypnos Character Heavy Myrmidon Upgrade Kit (plastic) MSRP $TBD

PIP 35045

Hypnos, a myrmidon of the most exacting construction, is of the creation of Lord Arcanist
Ossyan’s own labors. The lord arcanist has forged an insoluble connection with Hypnos,
allowing it to draw energy from Ossyan and become an extension of his abilities. In his
presence the myrmidon’s phase gun is imbued with synchronized energy; those struck by it
become nonconductive to mystical channeling, thwarting the use of arc nodes as well as the
delicate synergy between warbeast and warlock. Once it closes upon an enemy warjack,
Hypnos pounds it with fists armed with specially-designed force projectors. Even a glancing
blow from these weapons can stagger a warjack as its cortex signals overload, causing it to
seize up and become helpless.

The Hypnos character heavy myrmidon upgrade kit comes in a blister (PIP 35045). The Hypnos character heavy
myrmidon upgrade kit is NOT a complete model. Players will need a Retribution of Scyrah Banshee/Daemon/Sphinx
heavy myrmidon kit (PIP 35034) in addition to this kit. A player may field one Hypnos in a Retribution of Scyrah army.


Circle Orboros Feral/Pureblood/Stalker Warpwolf Kit (plastic) MSRP $34.99

PIP 72057

Warpwolves are humans that have been transformed into savage beasts well suited
for battle. The druids of the Circle Orboros use the vicious feral warpwolves to strike
their enemies hard and fast, unleashing them to sow death and discord with tooth
and claw. Contrastingly, the white-furred purebloods cut swathes through the
enemies of Orboros with measured ferocity and bone-shattering howls. Retaining
some portion of their human intellects, the sword-wielding stalkers are stealthy
killers that prowl behind enemy lines and strike without warning.

This box set contains three color stat cards and one multi-part heavy warbeast
plastic model (PIP 72057). Included are all the components to assemble one of
three heavy warbeast variants: Feral, Pureblood, or Stalker Warpwolf. A player may
field any number of these heavy warbeasts in a Circle Orboros army.

SPECIAL NOTE: PIP 72057 contains the same Mk II stat cards as PIP 72008, PIP
72021 and PIP 72044. The model in this box represents the same figures as those
PIPs in the game. However, the model in PIP 72057 is a new sculpt and therefore
looks different from the models found in those PIPs. In addition, this model is plastic
rather than metal. PIP 72008, 72021, and 72044 will no longer be available from
Privateer Press beginning March 1, 2012.

Circle Orboros Ghetorix Character Warpwolf Upgrade Kit (white metal)

Once a proud Tharn king, Ghetorix was bested in combat and captured by Kromac for
defying Morvahna the Autumnblade. As penance for his defiance, Morvahna forced the
warpwolf elixir upon the defeated king, transforming him into one of the fiercest
warpwolves the Circle has ever known.

Ghetorix’s thirst for blood and hunger for violence is legendary. His howled battle cry
sets his foes’ hair on end and breaks spirits even before his axe and teeth bite into
flesh. Ghetorix’s bloodlust is slaked only when he stands knee-deep in the entrails of
the fallen with gore dripping from his jaws.

The Ghetorix character warpwolf upgrade kit comes in a blister (PIP 72062). The
Ghetorix character warpwolf upgrade kit is NOT a complete model. Players will need a
Circle Orboros Feral/Pureblood/Stalker Warpwolf Kit (PIP 72057) in addition to this kit. A player may field one Ghetorix in
a Circle

MSRP $TBD

PIP 72062

Skorne Venator Slingers Unit (white metal)

The whirring susurration of Venator slingers in battle is a sound even the bravest
Praetorians dread. Centuries of house wars have begun with that noise heralding a rain of
shattering globes that drench defenders in lethal and viscous acid. Using these weapons,
the lowest among the warrior caste can reduce the greatest with just a few well-aimed
shots.

The Venator Slinger unit comes in a box (PIP 74063). A player may field two units of
Venator Slingers for each warlock in a Skorne army.

MSRP $49.99

PIP 74063

No Quarter Magazine #41 MSRP $7.50

Your guide for how to Play Like You’ve Got A Pair.

RPG previews continue in No Quarter Magazine #41 with a revealing interview with the lead designer and writer of the
new Iron Kingdoms RPG. Trollblood fans will have much to celebrate in The Kalmieri, an epic poem relating the saga of
Horfar Grimmr and the great axe Rathrok. Also in this issue, the fearsome Gatormen make an appearance in Guts &
Gears, the history of the dragon Everblight is explored in the Gavyn Kyle Files, and more information is revealed about the
next WARMACHINE expansion.

Never miss an issue!

events. Event organizers interested in increasing prize support for their
Steamroller tournaments can use these kits to supplement Steamroller Basic
(PIP 99045), Coin (PIP 99040), and Trophy (PIP 99041) kits. Each dice kit
contains 6 gold Privateer Press logo dice.

'Tis probably a typo - but Hypnos is listed as plastic, while Getafix is down as white metal, which seems odd.

I agree Dysartes that it is most likely a typo, it would be odd to make one of the character kits in plastic with the rest in metal.

I'm eagerly awaiting pics of the Venator slingers, hope they are decent sculpts so I can welcome them with warm smile and touch of barbed whip to my army.

And for some reason I doubt all of Wrath will be out before Domination starts getting releases.

No wargames these days, more DM/Painting.
