Warhammer 40,000 Preview

THE SHORT VERSION

Pete Haines explains the revised game’s aims: clearer organisation, stronger unit-level mechanics and more opportunity for movement and response. Changes to transports, shooting and Leadership address dominant tactics while retaining existing codexes. The large rulebook combines setting material, hobby guidance, missions and campaigns, while Battle for Macragge introduces newcomers through linked scenarios and simple assembly. The preview presents the two products as complementary routes into the updated game.
