The 2026 Q1 Dataslate Roundup

There was a big surprise Dataslate this week for Warhammer 40K -- obviously one was coming, but no one knows the hour and so on. There were some big changes! Maybe not enough big changes! Some of the choices regarding the Xenos factions were exceptionally wild. You can find our full coverage here, broken up in four:

• Space Marines
• Imperium
• Chaos
• Xenos

And you can find the crew's high-level thoughts on the Dataslate as a whole here.

The Dataslate added points for three new units, the physical miniatures for which were unveiled earlier today, and we've covered here:

• Goonhammer Reviews: The Twin Lance Models
• Goonhammer Reviews: Berekh Stornbrow and Tyranid Prime Models

The Datasheets for the units, however, came out last week, and in case you missed those, you can find our hot takes on them here:

• Hot Take: The Twin Lance Datasheet
• Hot Take: Berehk Stornbrow Adds a Long-Needed Character to Beserks
• Hot Take: The New Tyranid Prime Is as Redundant as You'd Expect

And that about catches you up on where things stand going into March at the end of tenth edition. Word to the wise: Just because we were too stunned to give the Twin Lance sheet's hot take a snappy title doesn't mean you shouldn't be aware of its deal. You should very much be aware of the Twin Lance's deal.
