White Dwarf 60 First Look: Khorne Codex

This week's White Dwarf is out, announcing the long anticipated release of a Legion/Chaos God combined codex. Leading things off is Codex: Khorne Daemonkin, with expanded new rules for different Bloodthirsters using the new End Times kit.

White Dwarf 52: The Tomb Worlds Awaken

The official announcement of the Necron release is here this week, and with it, some interesting hints and changes to how the Necrons work as an army.


With the new rules come a new Overlord model as well as a Special Edition codex that includes 2 sided print outs of the datasheets for each unit, extremely reminiscent of Second Edition and Dark Millenium for those with long enough memories.

White Dwarf 47 First Look: More Formations!

This week's White Dwarf is out and with it comes several Shield of Baal White Dwarf Exclusive Formations. There's also Jervis Johnson and the WD staff making up games with Poker Cards again for Fantasy and the Hobbit, but I'm going to gloss over that and just jump right to the formations.

White Dwarf 42 First Look

This week's White Dwarf features the new Tyranid dual kit of the Zoanthropes and Venomthropes. The kit includes the leaked rules and background for the more or less replacement for the Doom of Malan'tai, the Neurothrope. Additionally, this issue announces the upcoming 40k Campaign, the Shield of Baal.

Back Cover image is just too cool, in my Opinion

White Dwarf 40 First Look

This week's White Dwarf is out, officially releases the new Tyranid MCs. There is also a hint of more to come in the Opening Salvo segment: "here come the Tyranids for a second bite out of the Imperium! And with this week's first new release being the terrifying Toxicrene... joined by the Maleceptor."

White Dwarf 39 First Look

It's been a few weeks, but we picked up this week's White Dwarf and I thought I'd do a quick first look. This week's cover features the new massive mini for the End Times series, the Glottkin.

White Dwarf 35: The Dark Kin Rise

It's been a few weeks, but I'm back with our White Dwarf first look. This week is the second week of the releases for Dark Eldar, and includes the codex (and special editions).


This week's releases include the Dark Eldar codex and two special editions, the featured Voidraven Bomber, two new combination kits of a Raider and either Wyches or Warriors, Dark Eldar Datacards, and a Dark Eldar Painting Guide.

White Dwarf 32: More Undeath

This week's White Dwarf features a couple more of the absolutely brilliant Undead/End Times/Nagash models. This time it's Morghast Archai and Morghast Harbingers.

White Dwarf #30: NAGASH RISES

This week's White Dwarf has arrived, featuring the super awesome new Nagash min. This monster is no joke, and is just a gorgeous sculpt that will tempt many a collector (this one included).

White Dwarf #29 - Grey Knights

This week's White Dwarf has arrived, and it features the somewhat surprise codex release of Grey Knights. For August at least, Games Workshop is ramping up the already frantic rules release schedule, giving us a second codex this month.


In the teaser blurb, it is hinted that the mysterious past of the Grey Knights will be at least partially revealed as tying back to their founding during the Horus Heresy. The promise of possibly linking up with the Garro series has me at least intrigued from a fluff perspective.

White Dwarf #28 - The Wolf King Rides

This week's White Dwarf continues the cavalcade of Space Wolves, featuring the big, bad Wolf himself, Logan Grimnar


In addition to plenty of glamour shots of the head wolf on his pimp sled, he also is the focus of the Space Wolf Supplement, Champions of Fenris, which features additional equipment and seven formations, in the same style as Waaagh! Ghazghkull.

White Dwarf Issue 27: Bjorn the Fell-Handed and the Wolves of Fenris

What's up everyone? Another week, another White Dwarf, and the Wolves of Fenris are continuing to have more models, along with the first picture of the Codex. The Wolves are coming strong with new models, new rules, and three editions of the Codex.


The Rout is getting closer to being released, and everything is looking amazing.

White Dwarf #26 - Enter the Stormfang

This week the Space Wolves get their flyers and the Sons of Russ take to the air in two very Wolfie Flyers.
One is the Stormwolf and the other is the Stormfang.  Both have unique qualities and abilities.  We have a new book from the Black Library and dive into the Space Wolves and their chapter history.

White Dwarf #25 - Realm of Battle Boards

Another week and another White Dwarf. This time there aren't any major new releases, with the closest being the repackaging of the Dark Vengeance box.

White Dwarf # 24 - Stormclaw

This week's White Dwarf features the new "starter" set for 40k, Stormclaw.


As has been leaked all over this week, the box features two new characters to lead the collected forces in the box, with Orks and Space Wolves facing off. While there are only two new models in the set, it still checks in as a great deal, with $175 of minis not counting the two new sculpts and the mini rulebook and campaign book.

White Dwarf #23 - Planetstrike

While we wait on Waaagh! Ghazghkull to be available for download, we'll take a quick look at this week's White Dwarf, introducing the first installment of the Sanctus Reach Campaign - Red Waaagh!, which includes rules for Planetary Assault campaigns and games.

White Dwarf #21 - Orks, with a Codex!

Well, the White Dwarf with the Ork Codex is finally here. Preorders going up today, it looks like the Limited Edition Codex got an overhaul this time, and comes with a little more than just a slip cover.

White Dwarf #20 - More Orks, Still no Codex

A third week of Ork releases is featured and still no sign of the Codex. This week's releases are the new Mek Gun, which is a multi-part kit for any of the big guns, including a bunch of new weapons, the new Shokk Attack Gun, the 40k Librarium (all the 6th edition codices plus the rules), and some other Black Library releases.

White Dwarf #19 Review - Flash Gitz

As the cover suggests, the issue focuses on the new, very nice Flash Gitz kit and a little bit of background about just what Flash Gitz are. Essentially, they are Orks, obsessed with their fancy, souped up gun, and their showing off of said weapon leads to their banishment from the standard Ork society, where they join Freebooterz clans and sell their services to the highest bidder.

First Look - White Dwarf #18 - WAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

As was widely leaked this week, the Orks are on their way, lead by the army's new big kit, the Gork/Morkanaut. The behmoth looks to be on a Knight base, and while reportedly the height of Riptide, it's definitely a wide one.
