Dataslates first hit Warhammer 40K during last year’s Digital Advent Calendar, leading up to Christmas. Like any of the pre-Christmas digital dataslates – say the Tau Fire Support Cadre – the Strike Force Ultra dataslate was written to match the box of miniatures of the same name. A Strike Force Ultra is considered by any Chapter […]
Warhammer 40K 7th Edition is upon us. The overall vibe, over the past few weeks, seems to have become more positive. But what are the three (!) new core books of 40K really like? I’ll be looking at each of the three books in the new edition of Warhammer 40K: A Galaxy of War, Dark Millennium, […]
This weekend sees the release of Warhammer 40K 7th Edition. If you’re getting your copy from a Games Workshop store, the staff will likely be offering you this issue of the White Dwarf weekly. It’s an odd mix of releases for next week, with two new (temporary, I guess) boxed sets and new sets for […]
The cover of next week’s White Dwarf Weekly previews a new Space Marines boxed set – Strike Force Ultra – including the new Terminator Captain, Ultramarines First Captain Agemman.

Black Library’s Horus Heresy short story anthology Mark of Calth is themed to revolve around the aftermath of the Word Bearers treacherous attack on the Ultramarine planet of Calth, as detailed (among others) in Know No Fear. This is part two of my Mark of Calth review. Here you’ll find part one. The second half […]
Black Library’s Horus Heresy short story anthology Mark of Calth is themed around the aftermath of the Word Bearers’ treacherous attack on the Ultramarine planet of Calth, as described (among other books) in Know No Fear. This is a dark book. Warhammer 40K (or 30K) at its most bleak and grim, full of atrocities, 9/11 […]
No respite! The new Tyranid Codex was literally released today. Yet for those who already crave more, Games Workshop put the new Dataslate: Tyrannic War Veterans up for pre-order. #1 – Dataslate: Tyrannic War Veterans Description: The Tyrannic War Veterans are a legendary Space Marines formation. They are a specialist strike force led by Chaplain […]
