THE SHORT VERSION

Stores prepare Daemon-themed gaming and hobby sessions for the May holiday, alongside the launch of a National Painting Competition. The painting programme offers a chance to develop skills before local judging and Golden Demon. Black Library Day adds novel-inspired battles, character conversions and dioramas. The page presents these events as opportunities to join a new army project, defend against it or explore favourite fiction with models.

Editorial: The Daemons Arrive

Grombrindal introduces the simultaneous Daemon releases as an unusual shared project for both major Warhammer settings. Design interviews explain the undertaking, while a Dark Angels battle and an Old World campaign demonstrate the armies in action. The rest of the issue continues the Middle-earth allies tactica, develops a characterful undead collection and examines exceptional painted models. The introduction balances the month’s daemonic invasion with practical collecting and painting projects.

Service Above and Beyond

The Oxford Street Plaza staff receive a letter from Karen Buck MP recognising their support for gamers with disabilities. Parents also thank the team with a cake and champagne. The short profile names the staff and celebrates the extra effort involved in making their store’s hobby activities accessible. It records a local example of community support rather than a general claim about all stores.

Blood Bowl: The Computer Game

Cyanide’s forthcoming adaptation offers both a turn-based version of Blood Bowl and a faster real-time mode, with online play planned for both. The preview points readers towards demonstrations at the Blood Bowl Grand Tournament and a development website. It describes a project still in progress, presenting the two play styles as alternative ways to translate the tabletop game rather than reporting on a finished release.
