Neil Hodgson’s Sniper Drone Team

March 2006·p. 54

THE SHORT VERSION

Neil Hodgson matches his Sniper Drone team to the dark red Stealth colour scheme. The base combines Scab Red, black and Scorched Brown, with a small addition of bone supplying the highlight. Black areas receive Codex Grey and then Fortress Grey edges. The compact palette gives the observer and drones a shared stealthy appearance while keeping their angular equipment legible.

Editorial: For the Greater Good

Owen Rees introduces the expanded Tau Empire, especially Shadowsun, the Vespid and the new vehicles. The army deal offers an early opportunity to collect them before the normal release, while returning Tallarn models and Specialist Games releases provide other temptations. A free Golden Demon booklet and the coming summer campaign round out a month whose centrepiece is the Tau’s renewed expansion.

The News

The news previews Cities of Death as an urban expansion supported by modular plastic buildings and stratagems that give ordinary armies new choices. Forge World’s Cadian equipment, Mordheim components and an Old West historical release show other ways of extending existing collections. Studio sculpting previews, a Copenhagen gaming venue and the Golden Demon winners booklet place forthcoming products alongside the people and places that support the hobby.

Cities of Death: First Preview

The forthcoming urban expansion promises tactical choices before the battle through stratagems rather than requiring a specially built army. New plastic building sections are designed to fit together in many arrangements and give city boards a more consistent Imperial appearance. The preview links these physical kits to a wider summer of urban fighting, offering an early description rather than a complete rules system.
