THE SHORT VERSION

The team reports on painting and gaming projects ranging from Blood Angels and experimental Space Marine schemes to a T’au victory over Iron Warriors. Martyn shows how a small Bad Moons air fleet made an approachable alternative to a full Ork army, using Contrast colours on the Aeronautica Imperialis planes.

Worlds of Warhammer: All About That Base

Phil Kelly describes his conversion from leaving bare plastic bases to treating them as part of a miniature’s story. Examples range from his ill-advised use of real moss to ruined masonry, scenic character bases and small environmental details that link an army to its home or battlefield.

Last of the Silent Kings

The history of Szarekh follows the divided Necrontyr through biotransference, betrayal by the C’tan, rebellion and the Great Sleep. His secret return is driven by the Tyranids’ threat to the biological future he hopes to recover; Inquisitor Draxus’s records add ominous, unreliable fragments of Imperial investigation.
