THE SHORT VERSION

The new plastic Miners combine the Dwarfs’ working lives with their battlefield identity, supplying drills, carts, a pony and blasting equipment as well as warriors. New heroes and an Oath stone reinforce the idea of an army defined by honour and endurance. A starter force and the Miners’ tunnelling rules show how these practical craftsmen can add surprise and mobility to an otherwise deliberate Dwarf battle line.

A Battlefield in Every Hobbyist’s Home

Grombrindal welcomes a complete range of plastic scenery that can furnish a battlefield without requiring every feature to be built from scratch. Although the buildings chiefly express the Empire, hills and woods can serve all three principal games. The editorial also celebrates the character of the new Dwarf Miners and heroes, connecting a better-looking table with equally distinctive armies to fight across it.

News: For the Glory of Gondor

Two forthcoming supplements approach Gondor from different directions: The Return of the King follows the novel’s journey, while Gondor in Flames surveys the realm’s armies and history. New figures broaden the Fiefdoms, Minas Tirith, the Dead and their Haradrim enemies. The preview places the coming releases within the wider struggle for the Pelennor Fields rather than reproducing their future scenarios or profiles.

Wargames Terrain

The feature treats scenery as both a believable landscape and a powerful influence on play. Hills, woods, obstacles and buildings should be arranged with enough open ground for manoeuvre, avoiding implausible clusters or rigid symmetry. New kits illustrate those principles, while Gav Thorpe’s advice explains occupation, march blocking and countermeasures. The chapter on building design and painting shows how a convincing physical setting can strengthen a game’s story and tactical decisions together.
