BATTLE REPORT·WHITE DWARF 357

Clash of Champions

September 2009·pp. 76–95

THE SHORT VERSION

Ben Johnson’s greenskins face Ben Curry’s Dark Elves in a competitive pitched battle. Early artillery kills the Manticore while Elven shooting removes the Giant. March blocking, carefully chosen charges and opportunistic objective control matter as much as direct casualties. The Dark Elves finish ahead on points, but the gap falls short of the victory threshold and the battle ends in a draw.

Editorial: Space Hulk Returns

Mark welcomes the return of the classic boarding-action game. Fictional combat transmissions repeatedly interrupt his attempts to discuss the issue. He also celebrates the long-awaited Azhag miniature. The playful format turns the editorial itself into a small part of the Blood Angels’ renewed campaign.

Warhammer Basing Kit, Dead Grass and Burnt Grass

Resin base covers, slate and etched leaves provide different ways to personalise square bases. Two new grass colours extend the available ground effects. Mixing vegetation can suggest a more natural varied surface. The notice introduces materials whose use is demonstrated in the later basing workshop.
