Sixth Edition.

Syko wargamer here, and I don’t know about you, but for me the book missions in Warhammer 40,000 tend to get a little stale after a while. Also, the concept that both forces are after the same objectives seems a bit off to me and knowing exactly what your enemy’s goal is is neither realistic […]

This just in: Dark Vengeance had been delayed from Games Workshop and will not be available for release this weekend.Here is the skinny straight from GW as they just informed their distrubitors, and trade accounts today: “We’ve pushed the release for dark vengeance back. As soon as Dark Vengeance is available we will send them […]

White Dwarf #392 hit over the weekend, and as expected it was all about the new Warhammer 40k Starter box, Dark Vengeance. And oh my do the new minis look gorgeous! These models blow away all the other starter set figures, combined! Heck, when was the last time you saw tentacles reloading a holstered bolt […]

It’s weird how many different opinions there are out there about the new Dark Vengeance box set.Most people love it, as all the models seem usable.  They look to be the best in the two part format figures Games Workshop has ever produced. I would even be willing to be they will win some sort […]

Well the birds have certainly been chirping, and now we have the entire contents of the Dark Vengeance box set leaked for all to see.This is shaping up to be a MONSTER release, as everyone will want both the minis, and the small portable rulebook.

Well the White Dwarf got leaked somehow yet again, and it’s all over the internet, again….Apparently it started at “The 40k Project” who was the first to posted the images below.  I dont know how it keeps happening, but ah well. Maybe this whole debuting products in a physical magazine thing, isn’t such a good […]

This is a great article about building a better devastator unit, which in 6th is kinda still undecided.Well unless everyone gets Flakk missiles all of a sudden, then the choice maybe pretty clear! This is, of course, a guest post from Kirby at 3++, and I think it’s really good at breaking down the numbers […]

This just in… new Sixth Edition news, well sort of…Recently we saw a big news dump about “NEW” rumors about the 6th Edition start Box from Beast of war, and well, it was all pretty much old news. Everything except the name of the starter box itself was leaked as far back as Adepticon (April […]

Today I have a guest post of sorts from Kirby at 3++.This is a good How-To Article about the tactic, and it’s new effectiveness in sixth. From Kirby’s Blog, I sort of did this the wrong way around – I showed you how to break a bubble-wrap before how to make one within the new […]

Don’t get left in the dust? This article contains some pretty good advice IMHO about how the Aegis line can really benefit your army.Plus at only 50 points to field, I think we all should at least familiarize ourselves with it more as even if we don’t play it, we’ll probably square off against it […]

Apparently soon we’ll be seeing regular FAQ updates in an unprecedented move to “maintain balance”.That very thing was reported today out of the UK, that starting with the release of the new starter set, we’ll see some possibly groundbreaking FAQ’s. While I’m all for restoring balance (that worked for the Jedi right?), I’m not sure […]
