There Is Only War
September 2017·pp. 32–55
THE SHORT VERSION
The anniversary retrospective considers why Warhammer 40,000’s mixture of superstition, technology, miniatures and warfare has endured. Rather than presenting an optimistic future, it links an oppressive Imperium and threatening galaxy to the art, rules and personal collections that give the setting life. Interviews, historical examples and irreverent top-five lists connect its expanding scale with its continuing invitation to invent armies and stories. The closing emphasis is on generations of painters, players and fan communities who make the imagined universe a shared hobby.
