One thing that always stirs up some controversy in 40K are the “Spirit of the Game”-boxes included in the rulebook, which emphasise players – not just game designers – doing their part to make sure a game of Warhammer 40K is fun, enjoyable and “reasonably balanced”.

Dataslates first hit Warhammer 40K during last year’s Digital Advent Calendar, leading up to Christmas.
