The Chokepoint

March 2011·p. 37

THE SHORT VERSION

Two armies contest a defensible passage with a clear central killing ground. Extra points reward units that break into the opposing half and the side holding the most units near the centre, forcing a choice between penetration and control. Universal Hatred, upgraded to Eternal Hatred where already present, makes the struggle unusually vicious.

Waaagh! Da Orcs

Adam Troke explores the new Orcs & Goblins army book with Jeremy Vetock and the designers of its Savage Orc and Arachnarok kits. Vetock expands the distinct lives of greenskin tribes while revising Animosity and making Choppas express Orc strength across weapon choices. Mark Harrison describes fitting primitive materials, Big Stabbas and ranking-friendly poses onto the Savage Orc frames; Alex Hedström explains the Arachnarok’s menacing stance, modular howdah crew and proliferation of spare spiderlings.
