The High Elves March to War

November 2007·Inside cover

THE SHORT VERSION

Grombrindal grudgingly admires the High Elves’ shining ranks while recording their author as another Elf-friend in his book of grudges. The new army book, chariot, heroes and dragon lead the issue, with a city campaign and Baneblade workshop extending Apocalypse coverage. Middle-earth monsters provide a final threat, making the editorial’s tour of the contents a characterful exchange between Dwarven pride and the appeal of impressive new armies.

News: Waaagh! The Orks

The forthcoming Ork codex promises a broad account of the species’ origins, tribal culture and relentless wars, alongside the leaders and ramshackle machines that drive a Waaagh! New bikes, Trukks and Tankbustas accompany the range, while the returning Shokk Attack Gun particularly excites veteran players. The preview presents those eccentric weapons and stubbornly aggressive warriors as expressions of a civilisation that lives for conflict.

Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command

The handheld strategy preview follows Ultramarines fighting Chaos through fifteen linked missions on Nintendo DS and PSP. Turn-based combat uses destructible three-dimensional battlefields and recognisable weapons from bolters to power fists. Multiplayer maps support opposing or cooperative groups, with selectable loyalist Chapters and Chaos Legions. The feature translates the setting’s small-unit warfare into a portable game with local and networked play.

Chosen of Asuryan: High Elf Design Notes

Adam Troke rebuilds the High Elves around the identity found in their accumulated background: an ancient, dwindling people whose soldiers are exceptionally skilled. Always Strike First and a more generous selection of elite units make that identity visible in play, while three dragon ages and a Dragon Mage restore their old allies to prominence. Expanded history, character illustrations, themed armies and practical painting advice connect the revised rules with the visual and narrative character of Ulthuan.
