FEATURE·WHITE DWARF 354

The Realm of Sigmar

June 2009·pp. 16–25

THE SHORT VERSION

The feature presents the Empire as a patchwork of provinces, military traditions and eccentric individuals. Andy and Jeremy discuss how the heraldry book turns local stories into visual ideas without prescribing every collector’s scheme. Dave’s sketches, regiment histories and the new plastic kits reinforce that variety. A Steam Tank explanation, sample force and Pete’s tactics connect the setting to collecting and play.

Editorial: New Models and Old Armies

Mark welcomes the Empire releases while admitting that his own army remains unfinished. Jervis’s column encourages him to revisit a substantial Vampire Counts collection assembled from older figures. Adding a few modern units makes that force usable again. He presents the month’s modelling and games as reasons to enjoy both new and familiar miniatures.

Empire Steam Tank

The new plastic machine combines an armoured exterior with a detailed interior and Engineer. Alternative weapons and chimneys allow different appearances. Its construction brings a formerly imposing specialist model into the plastic range. The notice emphasises both the kit’s customisation and its distinctive place in an Empire army.

Empire Greatswords

Ten elite infantry form a regiment of heavily armoured veterans. Interchangeable heads, paired weapon arms and additional equipment provide variety. The components also mix with the surrounding Empire range. The release supplies useful material for the extensive conversion workshop later in the issue.
