Solland Liberation Army

February 2008·p. 81

THE SHORT VERSION

Marko Lukić builds a two-thousand-point infantry horde around Swordsmen and expendable Halberdier detachments. Small units angle themselves to force awkward charges, opening flanks for the larger blocks and their static combat bonuses. Four wizards supply damage and psychological support, adapting their Lores to the opponent. The plan accepts heavy losses as a resource, while the author acknowledges the patience required to assemble and paint so many soldiers.

The Southrons March

Grombrindal welcomes Harad’s expanded forces, whose Mûmakil, Corsairs and Mahûd promise a colourful and dangerous challenge for Gondor. The issue pairs their designer’s account with a large battle, then turns to a Studio map campaign and Empire tactics. The Shokk Attack Gun and customised Baneblades provide substantial hobby projects, while a Dan Abnett interview brings the developing Horus Heresy novels into the magazine’s wider view of the settings.

News: Twenty-five Years of Warhammer

The anniversary preview announces an April celebration of Warhammer through games, interviews, scenarios and store activities. John Blanche’s original Harry the Hammer cover inspires a special miniature by Aly Morrison, connecting the event to the game’s earliest imagery. The Black Library’s Time of Legends series will also revisit foundational stories, beginning with Sigmar and continuing into Nagash’s rise. The plans join rules history, art and fiction in one year of celebration.

Southron Horde

The 697-point army combines numerous inexpensive warriors, selected elites and a Mûmak. Poison helps ordinary Strength-three soldiers threaten tougher opponents, while Watchers of Kârna supply extra attacks and steadier nerves against frightening enemies. The Mûmak is aimed chiefly at valuable warriors rather than heroes who can delay it. Suggestions for adding assassins, Suladân or cavalry explain how the compact example can grow without abandoning its Southron identity.
