Source Games Workshop
…And so here we are, a week away from the release of a bold new era for White Dwarf, and the team – despite their exhaustion – are beyond excited to share it with you. In its 156 pages you’ll find such delights as the following:
– Planet Warhammer, an exhaustive and exciting new news section full of the latest releases from Games Workshop, and more.
– A Tale of Four Warlords, detailing a quartet of personal hobby journeys through building, painting and playing games.
– A mind-blowing Eldar Army of the Month. (It’s got three Titans in it!)
– 20 pages of all-new and exclusive gaming content for nine boxed games, including Warhammer Quest Silver Tower, Deathwatch: Overkill, Space Hulk and more.
– A huge Warhammer Age of Sigmar battle report. It’s got arrows and people and everything!
– Temporal Distort: a regular look back at a White Dwarf of yore.
– Extensive Designers Notes on the new Deathwatch Codex and miniatures.
– The weird and wonderful world of Blanchitsu.
– Art, painting guides, modelling fun, and much, much, much more.It’s big, it’s packed, and it’s got a Slaughterpriest with Hackblade and Wrath-hammer attached to the cover, ready for you to use in the new boxed game Gorechosen. We couldn’t be happier with it and next week, you’ll get to see it for yourselves. Please be sure to let us know what you think of it; it goes without saying that we also developed the new White Dwarf with you, our readers and customers, in mind, and we want you to tell us what you want to see more or less of. The future starts now!

And checkout the mini that’s on the way too:
That’s normally a $30 value for that bad boy right there, all at a cost of $9 for the magazine itself!
Plus the jolly old Dwarf himself is back too, post in what looks to be an homage of the old Dwarf Collectors series Berzerker from yesteryear:
Grombrindal, The White Dwarf: $20
Description
Grombrindal – The White Dwarf himself, namesake of the Ultimate Warhammer Magazine – comes to the Mortal Realms! Some say Grombrindal is the living incarnation of Snorri Longbeard himself; others that he was betrothed to the goddess Valaya. None truly know the origins of this most ancient and venerable of the Duardin race, but you can get your hands on him right now.
Grombrindal, The White Dwarf presents the Dispossessed Unforged miniature in exclusive Grombrindal packaging, available in this format for a limited time only. Full rules for using Grombrindal, The White Dwarf in both Warhammer Age of Sigmar and Warhammer Quest Silver Tower can be found exclusively in September’s issue of White Dwarf!
Time to lock in that Magazine Subscription now?
What We Had Seen Previously:
This image was spotted across the internet late Wednesday evening which seems to indicate a ton of new content is on the way for some of our favorite games!
And Games Workshop is showing off more previews of the new monthly Magazine on their Facebook page:
So, time for another look at the soon-to-be-here first issue of the new monthly White Dwarf… and it’s another old favourite for you all. Witness, the return of A Tale of Four Warlords! And just think, this is only one of the great new features we’ve got for you. Surely you’re excited by now, right?
So, less than two weeks until the new White Dwarf is here! We’ve heard a lot of suggestions on what you want to see in the new magazine and perhaps the most requested feature has been… battle reports. Well, here’s a sneak peek of a little something we think you’ll rather like… Excited?
And if you think that layout looks familiar, compare it to the Collecting Age of Sigmar magazine that came out back in July:
I’ve read a lot of hobby publications in my day, and I have NEVER been as blown away by one as I have with this new Getting Started guide to the Age of Sigmar!
This magazine is packed with tons of full bleed vivid images, page overlay spreads, multi page immersive battle reports, and almost 20 pages of hobby how-tos.
Plus they have re-worked the AoS rules into a more digestible format over more than just the standard 4 pages as well.
After reading this very engrossing supplement for the game, I surely hope this is also a “pilot” for what will be the format of the new monthly White Dwarf in September.
But don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself below:
