Black Library is releasing Warhammer 40K Tactica eBooks, starting with Eldar Wraithknights. This certainly is an interesting Saturday, full of unusual releases from Games Workshop. First the Space Marines Ultramarines Chapter One-Click Bundle. Now the first of a new series of Tactica-eBooks from Black Library to help you play Warhammer 40K. The first one is […]
Less than two months ago, shortly after the release of the new 6th Edition Eldar Codex, I took a brief look at some of the Eldar Aspect Warriors in the latest edition of Warhammer 40K. One type of Aspect Warrior that didn’t immediately catch my attention were the Striking Scorpions. Was that an oversight (as […]
Games Workshop’s decision to publish it’s Warhammer 40K Codex books (and Warhammer Fantasy Army books) as eBooks is still a fairly new one, all things considered. Thus far, GW’s eBook publications (as opposed to Black Library’s eBook publications) have been limited to publications for Apple devices, notably the iPad. Now, Games Workshop expanded the range […]
The Eldar’s Remnants of Glory are a bag of nasty tricks. The Mantle of the Laughing God and Faolchú’s Wing caught most people’s attention early on. As I noted in my article on these two, the game designers apparently made an effort to make these unique, trademark items more relevant in the game of 40K. So […]
The latest 6th Edition Codex for Warhammer 40K – the Eldar – continues the pattern of introducing two flyers per army. For the Eldar, it is the Crimson Hunter Aspect Warrior in the Nightshade Interceptor and the more arcane Hemlock Wraithfighters, piloted by an Eldar Spiritseer. I do love the new models for the Eldar […]
I started flipping a bit through the new Eldar Codex (people anywhere from Buenos Aires to Moscow seem to have had the book by Saturday, though Royal Mail – in time-honoured tradition – made sure it did not arrive here, a 100 miles south of Nottingham, before Wednesday). Just to kick-off the Eldar-musings, some random […]
The weekend is fast approaching, and with it the shipping of the new Eldar Codex. Speculations and rumours on the new rules for the Eldar abound. A rather complete compilation of what is out there has been put on pastebin. There are also some insights to be gleaned into a few of the units by […]
It has been a crazy week. After the sepulchral silence on the Eldar for weeks, bits and pieces of the new Warhammer 40K release started coming hard and fast all week. As a consequence, I’ve written about little else. I promise to be a bit more .. varied .. in the coming weeks. Still, I […]
The Eldar Wraithknight! I can already see how that beast is going to keep my busy blogging in the coming weeks. The new Eldar Wraithknight is part of Games Workshop’s latest release for Warhammer 40K 6th Edition. It is one of the largest kits ever made for the “regular” game of Warhammer 40K. It stands 9″ […]
The arrival of the Eldar to Warhammer 40K 6th Edition is almost upon us. It appears that the new miniatures and Codex will go up for pre-order soon, possibly this Saturday, and be available for purchase starting June 8. Some details of what may (or may not) be in the Eldar release have been shared […]
