Brother Longfang from Bolter and Chainsword found this and it is awesome! A new expansion for Warhammer, 40,000 and this time from Forgeworld! It hasn't been released yet, and there aren't even photos up on the item page on Forgeworld, which at this point is not public. But Brother Longfang did some great detective work to find this.
Called "Zone Mortalis", this expansion set is comprised of four 1'x1' sections that can be put together in multiple ways. Together they form a 2' x 2' game board, same as a Realm of Battle board section. Forgeworld has incorporated ideas from Space Hulk (augur blips and bulkheads), IA9 boarding mission rules (catastrophic damage), and Fantasy (reaction fire and blind panic). The boards have a price of 98 GBP, which is about $ 155 US.
From Forgeworld:
The Realm of Battle Zone Mortalis Set contains all four of the Zone Mortalis individual tiles, allowing for a huge range of possible corridor arrangements covering a total area of 2' x 2' (60mm x 60mm). Alpha Complex, Beta Complex, Delta Complex and Gamma Complex are each 1' x 1' (300mm x 300mm) tiles that are fully compatible and interchangeable with each other. These detailed hollow resin tiles, designed by Blake Spence, are perfect for playing games using the Zone Mortalis Warhammer 40,000 Expansion rules, which are available to download here.
The Zone Mortalis tiles use hollow resin, which allows us to produce highly detailed, light and very durable scenery pieces. Due to the casting process of this material, it is sometimes possible to find small air bubbles on these terrain pieces. These are easy to fill as our Working with Resin guide explains.

I am pretty excited about this. Just one more way that Forgeworld keeps the interest of us old time 40K players. Hopefully we will see more of these boards and more expansions.
