A slightly older book from Black Library, Fear the Alien is a short-story anthology with stories about … wait for it … aliens! Like the game of Warhammer 40K, Black Library is heavily Imperium (and Space Marine) biased in their publications, at least in the number of publications. That alone made me want to take […]
The license (prospects?) for a full-fledged “old school” computer game in the Warhammer 40K universe may have sunk with THQ (for now? forever?), but these app-games, browser-games and free2play takes on Warhammer 40K just keep on coming. Here’s another one: Warhammer 40.000 Space Wolves from HeroCraft, a Russian mobile games developer. #1 – Warhammer 40.000 […]
Warhammer 5th Edition is over. Everyone’s talking about Warhammer 40K 6th Edition now. Yet the final closing of 5th Edition also offer a unique moment to stop, look back and reflect on how those years have changed, for better or worse, the miniature wargame that still is – without a doubt – the big kid […]
I am, at best, an infrequent White Dwarf reader. The last I picked up was the issue on Dark Angels. This weekend, I picked up the July 2013 White Dwarf on GW’s latest iteration of Warhammer 40K Apocalypse, partly because I don’t think I’ll buy the new Apocalypse 40K rulebook right away. Some basic observations: […]
Forge World’s Imperial Armour Volume Twelve: The Fall of Orpheus pitches, among other things, the Minotaurs Space Marines Chapter against Necrons. I haven’t read the book, but apparently it includes a named Contemptor from the Minotaurs Chapter: Hecaton Aiakos. Now, Forge World released the miniature for this named Contemptor. Greek-themed Space Marines at their finest. Hecaton Aiakos Painted […]
Games Workshop’s revised Warhammer 40K Apocalypse is drawing closer. Along with the book, Games Workshop will release four new Finecast Space Marine Captains. Yet the big thing (sorry) everyone is looking for are, of course, Games Workshop’s big plastic kits. These have been the centre-piece of every recent release for Warhammer 40K and Warhammer Fantasy. […]
The Eldar will arrive this weekend (for pre-orders at least) to the 6th Edition of Warhammer 40K. Games Workshop’s been exceptionally tight on this one, though the first images from the White Dwarf have started to appear the last couple of days. If you haven’t seen them, take a look: Eldar Spiritseer Eldar Hemlock Flyer Eldar […]
It’s Friday and Forge World’s releasing new stuff like clockwork. There’s little surprise this week. After the announcement of Imperial Armour 12 – The Fall of Orpheus and the many previews on Forge World Open Day last week, they now made two new Necron models available: The Tesseract Ark and the Sentry Pylon with Gauss Exterminator. […]
Forge World Open Day 2013 is fast approaching (this Sunday actually). Forge World put up previews for the event-exclusive miniatures (a Death Korps of Krieg Quartermaster for Warhammer 40K and an Empire Warrior Priest for Warhammer Fantasy). They also uploaded pages from the coming Imperial Armour 12 book, which will pitch Necrons (with the new Night Shroud […]
A few months ago, when everybody was flicking through the new Codex for Chaos Space Marines, I noted there were no new special characters in the first 40K 6th Edition Codex. #1 – Warhammer 40K 5th Edition and Special Characters This was – and is – quite a major break from what everyone was accustomed […]
