The issue combines miniature design, daemon histories and tactics with magic, strange scenery and John Blanche’s interpretation of Chaos. Personal plans to elevate existing army leaders into Daemon Princes connect the releases to the studio’s own collections.

Adam Troke explores the new plastic daemon kits and the alliances that let rival gods’ servants invade together.

Historical accounts and named host galleries then show grudges, bargains and shared enemies temporarily overcoming daemonic rivalry in both settings.
