Warriors of Chaos Magic Items

June 2008·p. 75

THE SHORT VERSION

The interim list provides common equipment alongside Chaos weapons, armour, talismans, arcane aids and banners. Several items reinforce a god’s particular style, while others trade a powerful benefit for risk or impose new tests on opponents. Defensive options include regeneration and missile protection, and spellcasting tools alter dice or add magical resources. The selection lets players equip the temporary list’s characters without returning to the superseded mixed Chaos army book.

Dark Elves: Coming in August

The Dark Elf preview announces an updated army book, returning personalities and new miniature kits for the raiders of Naggaroth. Lokhir Fellheart joins established characters, while plastic Cold Ones and Black Ark Corsairs expand the range. Repeater handbows give the Corsairs a new visible equipment choice. Short background describes the bitterness and cruelty behind their raids, connecting the coming release to their long conflict with the High Elves.

Warhammer World Summer Hobby Camp

Warhammer World announces five-day camps built around assembling, painting and playing with a new or expanded army. A selected battalion or battleforce, materials, tuition and a carrying case support the week’s project, with games testing the growing force. The page also lists forthcoming exhibitions and previews Aly Morrison’s new Bugman miniature. The programme turns the earlier hobby-camp proposal into bookable activities with a clear collecting goal.

Using the Citadel Washes

The guide explains how wash quantity changes the strength of shading and compares selective application with an overall coat. Chad’s Haradrim example receives highlights before several coloured washes, blending transitions and strengthening recesses. A second demonstration shades metal immediately after its basecoat and adds bright highlights afterwards. Smaller examples show how the same approach changes Orc armour, Plaguebearer skin, old bone and Bloodletter flesh.
