Games Workshop is offering a number of key additions to its Warhammer Tabletop Miniatures Game in February.  Continuing the 'good things come in small packages' theme announced in January (see 'January Belongs to the Short'), Games Workshop has added seven more great Dwarf skus for February.  The Dwarf Thunderers box of plastic miniatures (SRP $35) includes sixteen figures guaranteed to swell the ranks of your fighting units, while the plastic Dwarf Cannon ($20) allows players to assemble either a powerful cannon or a multi-barreled organ gun and provides a crew of three to man and protect it. 

For those who prefer metal miniatures Games Workshop is releasing a Dwarf Slayers Box ($45), which contains ten heavily armed and compacted crazies, which are also available in Dwarf Slayers Blister Packs ($15) containing 3 figures.  The Dwarf Slayer Command Blister ($15) contains two metal models, while the elaborate Dwarf Slayer Lord ($12) and the Dwarf Lord With Hammer & Shield ($12) come individually packed.  One of the coolest new Warhammer releases is the Dwarf Bolt Thrower ($20), an ingenious catapult, that comes with a crew of three.

Games Workshop also has a number of February releases for its Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game including the book, A Shadow in the East ($15), which details the tactics and powers of the Easterlings and the Varlags of Khand who have thrown their lot in with Sauron against the free peoples of Middle Earth.  The Easterlings are also the focus of February's miniature releases, which include the mounted Easterling Kataphakts ($40 for box of five metal minis, $10 per single blister-packed figure), a box of 20 plastic Easterlings warriors ($25), and magnificent metal miniature of Khamul the Easterling ($20).  To battle against all these evil forces from the East Games Workshop is also releasing two sets of heroic duos, Cirion & Madril ($15 for a 2-man blister pack), who fight for Gondor, and Murin & Drar ($15), defiant denizens of the Iron Hills.
