I am running a small poll on what people perceive to be the best Codex released in Warhammer 40K 6th Edition. The tail light of this poll is the Chaos Daemons Codex. While this may be unfortunate, it isn’t all that surprising. Though Daemons have a small, but devout following of fans, the Codex received […]
Rumours about future GW releases are always a fickle thing. This one, however, excites me. If the rumour-mongers are correct, the new Codex for Tau Empires will break with one of the most lamentable trends in Warhammer 40K 6th Edition: the lack of new Special Characters iconic to a Warhammer 40K faction or army. It […]
An interesting Newsletter arrived today from Games Workshop. It appears there are still quite a few Limited Edition Warhammer Army Books and Warhammer 40K Codices left for Chaos Daemons. This, by itself, seems surprising after the Limited Edition Chaos Space Marines Codex and the Limited Edition Dark Angels Codex sold out in a few hours. Even […]
Among the things I enjoyed most in the recent Chaos Space Marines Codex for Warhammer 40K was the short section of unique Chaos Artifacts. They are great idea. A fun and flavorful inclusion that allows player to build Chaos Lords (or other HQs) with a unique spin. The equivalent for Dark Angels are the Chapter Relics (those […]
It is time, once again, to call upon the crowd-wisdom of my loyal Pins of War blog-readers to solve me a Warhammer 40K rules conundrum. Reading the latest Dark Angels codex for Warhammer 40K 6th Edition, I was (and remain) deeply impressed with the new and shiny Ravenwing options. As a consequence, I paid little […]
Yesterday, I was rambling a bit about the (to me) rather un-fun trend in 6th Edition Codexes of adding no new Special Characters. Ok, there might not be any new kids in the book. Therefore, I took an in-depth look at the five Special Characters that actually are in the book. Azrael – Supreme Grand Masters […]
I have been leafing through the Dark Angels Codex for Warhammer 40K 6th Edition a bit more. Being a new book, a new edition, a new codex author, etc.., I am trying to let it sink in a bit before making any attempt at a review or judgement call. Last week, I posted my musings […]
Holy! Games Workshop is truly pulling all the strings for the Dark Angels. Not one, but a total of three YouTube videos have now appeared to showcase and celebrate the (re-)release of the Unforgiven. They are titled Retribution, Devastation and Fortitude. Games-Workshop-YouTube-Eye-Candy at its finest. Take a look!
It is time! The White Dwarf pictures have circulated on the internet. Now it is official. The Dark Angels are here. Check out the latest release for Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K: the Dark Angels in all their dark and gothic splendour. Deathwing, Ravenwing, new sculpts for Asmodai and Belial, and the new Dark Angels Codex, including as (slightly […]
