Nick Bayton: Dawn of War

October 2013·pp. 80–81

THE SHORT VERSION

Nick completes the cinematic Blood Ravens display after a demanding final burst. Trenches, weathering and an Ork strongpoint recreate the familiar charge from Dawn of War’s opening. Older Forge World scenery and plaster integrate the terrain into the board. Despite the sleepless finish, the shared challenge immediately encourages another army idea.

Iron Guard

Mark Clapham follows Hool from a crowded Mordian hive into the 114th Regiment. Adam is particularly drawn to the convincing civilian setting and wishes the transition through training were longer. Once deployed, the regiment faces renegades and stranger night-time threats. Sergeant Essler and Commissar Tordez give the disciplined formation memorable individual characters.

Salamanders: The Omnibus

The Tome of Fire novels and associated short stories appear together in a large collection. Dak’ia and the Third Company face renegades who mirror their own Legion’s heritage. Mutual revenge drives the conflict, while the Salamanders’ compassion gives it a distinct character. Andrew recommends the series as an expression of the Chapter qualities that first attracted him.
