Death is coming from the skies, the Skyweavers are here!

The latest White Dwarf has arrived, and it’s a must have if you’re building a Harlequins army, as it contains the new rules for the flashy Skyweavers.

Plus it showcases the new models themselves with tons of paint schemes, and breaks down how to paint the elusive checkered pattern for the jetbike’s armor plates.

There is also a great feature on a spectacularly converted and painted Ork army that features a ton of amazing models. I literally starred at the picture for ten minutes deciphering how they made those conversions.  Make sure you checkout that feature for sure, even if you don’t pick up this issue.

Last but not least there is a cool new mission for Warhammer 40k that’s centered around infiltrating an enemy base.

Next week’s teaser  is ‘Harlequin Masques’, which may just be the title of the Harlequin’s new codex we’ve been waiting for.

Check it all out below in my first look review of the new Harlequin Skyweavers and White Dwarf #54.
