There's also going to be a getting started booklet coming out, with background and hobby info for new players along with the basic rules, which comes with a single Primaris marine and costs the same as an issue of White Dwarf.


The return of bonus White Dwarf minis.  Old-school!

Less a bonus, and more a $10 mini with a glossy ad.

 

True, but the Khorne slaughterpriest they had in the WD a few months back was worth it. The mag seemed to have some decent game content as well, but I haven't bought another one since so I can't say whether it's consistent in that regard.

Oooo that's what I'm talking about. Any Ideas as to when?

Looks like they're July releases, possibly towards the end of the month though. Here's what the book looks like:

From the description on the Warhammer Community site:

"[...] this 103-page guidebook is the perfect guide for any Warhammer 40,000 beginner, giving a thorough overview of the universe of the 41st Millennium, how the game works and the different armies you can collect. It also comes with an Easy to Build Intercessor and a set of core rules, allowing you to take the first steps of your journey for around the price of a White Dwarf."

Picked up Index Xenos 2 and have planned for a game or two next Wednesday. Glory to the Four-Armed Emperor!

 

Yay ^_^!

 

Though I can't condone the use of anything non-Imperial, I hope you have fun!

Well, I will be using Imperial weapons and mining equipment... 

 

Well, can't fault you for your gear. Intent, maybe, but not gear.

 

May the noodly-faced four-armed god bless you in your endeavour!

FLGS just started a builder's campaign, currently at 500 points. Gonna do a Demons of chaos force, myself. Tzeentch starter force aquired, and a pair of khorne skull cannons on order from the FLGS, along with a couple succubi, Gargoyle, and hell-hound regiments web-ordered from mantic; demonette, Fury, and flesh hounds, respectively. I prefer both the mantic sculpts and prices, but the FLGS doesn't think he can get a decent turn-around time on the order.

 

It's going to be an outrider formation - lots of fast attack stuff, but maybe short on numbers. We'll see how it works.

 

my current force is fifteen chaos terminators, backed up by berserks, a trio of bikers, and a pair of sorcerers. Vanguard formation; it's great against some things, and has failed hilariously against others to date. Most of the termies are the old metal ones I tore apart in order to bulk up years ago, and just finished putting back together; that took a bunch of hours to short out.
