A studio painting competition rewards the miniature that best expresses Warhammer’s character rather than technical perfection, with Martin Footitt’s converted Ogre Tyrant winning the vote. The news pages also introduce the 2011 School League’s expanded regional heats and War of the Ring format, preview Space Marine’s forge-world action, and describe the online painting, collecting and scenario support accompanying The Island of Blood.

An account of Absolom Reach’s destruction introduces four daemon formations through a five-day planetary catastrophe. Khârn erupts into the governor’s gladiatorial tournament, Khorne and Slaanesh hunt the fleeing population, the Changeling turns apparently loyal troops into Horrors, and Fateweaver’s princes complete the planet’s transformation. The narrative makes the accompanying Apocalypse datasheets parts of one coordinated invasion rather than unrelated collections of models.

This Apocalypse formation binds Khârn and Khorne Berzerkers to a Khorne Daemon Prince and eight chosen Khorne units. Its alliance extends Daemonic Assault to the mortal followers and brings the whole formation into the same arrival group: Khârn and the prince establish the landing point, then their accompanying units arrive nearby without scattering. It creates a concentrated mixed mortal-daemon attack rather than the normal dispersed arrival of a large daemon army.
