Reader models range from Jakub Bartkowiak’s Yndrasta to Brandon Ryan’s Black Templars, an Emperor’s Children Venomcrawler and a Rune Priest. Letters discuss weapon identification, changing Chapter markings and finding a manageable way to finish an army, while the closing model-of-the-month feature brings Thorin’s Company into the fire-lit trees of an early Hobbit scenario.

Jonny Watson recreates the Howling Griffons collection that inspired him in White Dwarf 180 in 1994.

Gavin, Lewis, Keith and Luke discuss translating The War of the Rohirrim into miniatures while keeping Rohan visually connected to the older film range. Leather, wool, horse motifs and crested helmets remain familiar, but the replacement plastic infantry have more natural movement and clearer silhouettes. Haleth’s commanding poses contrast with Háma’s lighter, more informal equipment, while Helm’s bare-handed fury and Héra’s two very different identities demand distinct sculpts.
