White Dwarf and Warhammer Visions – two publications featuring a mix of incredible imagery, rules, in-depth features and exclusive insights into the world of Citadel miniatures.

White Dwarf is the long-lived weekly magazine from Games Workshop, legendary in status and high in quality. Covering each of the week’s new releases in detail, it features painting guides, rules and in-depth articles.

Warhammer Visions is a fantastic monthly magazine from the White Dwarf team. This is a super high-quality, visual feast of Citadel Miniatures. In over 230 pages you’ll find a fresh, visually incredible take on the worlds of Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 in a stunning extended pictorial style.

Subscribe and receive one issue per week of White Dwarf, and a monthly issue of Warhammer Visions!

Now I suppose you can argue that they did that on purpose in order to hype folks up into buying their combo deal for the White Dwarf, and chances are this page will see a lot of hits today when everyone links back to where the original source of the pictures from Games Workshop’s site. So kudos to them for the sneak peak!

+++ UPDATE +++

Editor’s Note: Around 10:00 EST 1-5-2015 the above picture was changed out on Games Workshop’s site for this:

For the Iron Priest
So it looks like we will have a solid two weeks of 40k releases taking us into the third week of February.  So what may be next on the horizon from Games Workshop? Take a look at our roadmap article from just a few weeks ago, which at the time seemed very far fetched.

Via BoLS:

You all can pick through these and try to figure out what you think GW’s best release schedule week to week might be.

“Sooner”

Chaos: Grand Alliance AoS Happened

Order: Grand Alliance AoS 

Death: Grand Alliance AoS 

Destruction: Grand Alliance AoS 

Death Release Window (starring an undead giant) AoS 

Space Wolves Release Window 40K Breaking Now

Space Wolves vs Chaos Daemons Campaign 40K Happening

Horus Heresy Plastic Reboxes Release Window 40K

“Later”

Betrayal at Calth Boxed Game Sequel 40K

Oruks Release Window (starring a Wyvern) AoS

Duardin Release Window (starring a construct) AoS

Deathwatch Boxed Game 40K

“Wildcards”

Any Specialist Game Release (I would be shocked if they had any ready in time, but you never know)

So what we’ll really see in the coming weeks and months is anyone’s guess, however this is what we’ve heard is happening before the new year for GW in June.
