April 2017·p. 108

THE SHORT VERSION

James Ashbey works from grey fatigues out to red armour and dark green weapon cases so that the early messy stages are covered by later details. Sharper armour highlights distinguish hard surfaces from cloth, and the same palette is rearranged for a weathered grey Leman Russ with red and white markings.

Sector Mechanicus

A close look at the Alchomite Stack, Galvanic Magnavent and Ferratonic Furnace shows how tanks, chimneys, raised platforms, cranes and removable fittings combine. The emphasis is on interchangeable connections and compatibility with existing Imperial scenery, enabling varied industrial battlefields from the same components.

Munitorum Report: Armageddon

A compact history traces Armageddon from the secretly preserved world of Ullanor to Angron’s invasion and Ghazghkull’s two wars. Its sequence stresses the terrible human cost and the continuing destruction of the hive cities rather than presenting the planet’s survival as an uncomplicated success.

Talons of the Emperor

The return of Roboute Guilliman provides the context for a boxed force of Custodian Guard, Sisters of Silence, a Contemptor Dreadnought and Imperial transports. Two accompanying codexes expand the background of the Emperor’s guardians and psychic nulls and provide their contemporary army rules.
