Production of the Warhammer Conquest publication has been put on pause. Come find out the latest on the GW exclusive magazine and what it means for subscribers.
Hachette Partworks Ltd sent one of our readers an update on his order, and it may not have been what they were expecting.
Let’s take a look at what they had to say about the release of Warhammer 40,000: Conquest.
From the sounds of it, production has been put on hold with a hope of launching the collection “nationally” in the near future. That being said, we’re not sure what nationally means just the UK, or Inter-nationally as in worldwide?
The Warhammer Conquest subscription program was slated to be a UK exclusive magazine, but it looks like it might be a while before people receive future shipments.
So, what is Warhammer Conquest for those that missed our initial announcement post? Let’s recap what was going to be included with subscriptions before they were paused/
Games Workshop has started a new weekly mailorder subscription program for the UK customers called Warhammer Conquest.
Discover the history, battles and heroes of the 41st Millennium with fascinating articles in your exclusive magazine.
Learn how to build your miniatures and then paint them to perfection with detailed step-by-step guides and handy hints and tips. When you’ve completed your models, lead them into battle on the tabletop and play through exciting stories and thrilling missions to test the limits of your new army!
Each month you’ll receive 4 issues delivered to your door with FREE P&P
Each issue costs £7.99, with the exception of issue 1 at £1.99 and issue 2 at £4.99
As part of your subscription benefits, one of your issues will be FREE and you will also receive 5 FREE gifts during the course of your collection.
Subscribers were slated to get six different bonuses throughout the various deliveries:
Warhammer Conquest’s first issue was going to cost £1.99, issue 2 is £4.99, with each issue after for £7.99. This is a great deal when you actually look at the minis, paint, brush, dice, and delivery bonuses that you’ll be receiving.
If you live in the UK and you’re already a subscriber, we’d love to hear what your initial thoughts are on Warhammer Conquest so far if you received any shipments.
For everyone else, let us know if this is something you would like to see available in your area of the world if offered.
