EditorialWD 335 · Inside cover
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.

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.

Jervis explains why an army’s identity should guide its design from the outset instead of being reconstructed around isolated fixes to underused units. High Elf infantry, elite warriors and dragons become the central themes of the new list, just as the Dark Angels revision restores the Deathwing’s established organisation. Rules and miniature design then reinforce those choices together. The aim is a flexible army that rewards collecting and playing the force described in its background.
