A new 40k Terrain piece, Haemotrope Reactors, is featured in the book along side some Age of Sigmar terrain. The Magewrath Throne and the Balewind Vortex are two great pieces of terrain for Age of Sigmar and if you have any casters in your army you should definitely take a look at the Balewind Vortex because your caster can summon it for free, he stands on top of it and basically can’t be reached and it doubles the range of his spells. This is definitely a solid piece to have coming in at only $15.

There is a giant two page add for the new Blood Bowl game in the center of the White Dwarf. This leads us to believe that the new edition landing next month??

The Space Marine Land Raider from 1999, by Jes Goodwin,  has been inducted into the Citadel Hall Of Fame and an article was constructed describing this occasion. Jes Goodwin is an amazing sculptor that basically laid the groundwork for how the Space Marines look today.

The Genereal’s Almanack talks a lot about competitive play vs the casual narrative kind of play and also touches some on army building and other overall things about Age of Sigmar.
