Back in 2006, the Vostroyan Firstborn debuted as a new Astra Militarum regiment, actively participating in the "Fall of Medusa V" campaign. Now it has been announced that these classic miniatures for the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game will return as part of a special "Made to Order" release.
The Vostroyans are a proud and fierce people who dedicate every firstborn from a family, whether commoner or noble, to service in the Imperial Guard. This is their penance for refusing to provide regiments to the God-Emperor during the Horus Heresy.
Their homeworld of Vostroya is a powerful industrial planet with a rich heritage of manufacturing weapons and equipment, and its regiments honor the tradition of passing down their exquisite uniforms to new recruits joining the ranks of the Firstborn.
The set will contain 20 Vostroyan Guardsmen, including a Sergeant with power sword, a Sergeant with power fist, a Guardsman with plasma gun, and a Guardsman with grenade launcher, three Vostroyan lascannon teams, and a command squad – one Commander, one Veteran Guardsman with master vox-caster, one Standard Bearer, and one Veteran Guardsman with medic pack.
A squad of 10 Vostroyans with a Sergeant and a Flamer-wielding trooper, as well as a Vostroyan Command Squad, will be available for separate purchase. Three additional Commanders will be available: one armed with a chainsword, another with a power fist, and a third with a plasma pistol and power sword.
The Vostroyan Firstborn will be available for purchase in the near future.
