I watched all 3 episodes of Aeronautica Imperialis on Warhammer TV streaming, and enjoyed it. It's a story of the Imperium against the Aeldari as they fight for control of a planet that's been claimed by humanity as a forge world. But really it's a story about revenge, obsession, and ultimately ev...
In Warhammer 40,000, an Exodite is an Aeldari who left their homeworld to settle a remote planet in rejection of the degeneration of the Aeldari civilisation. A new Exodite kill team has just been announced on Warhammer Community, and coincidentally I'd just been watching The Exodite Warhammer...
As fans of Tolkien, we've been mostly lucky that "expanded universe" content hasn't generally tried to alter Lord of the Rings (LOTR) canon. Rings of Power had to rewrite the story of Annatar the Lord of Gifts a little, because the show didn't have rights to everything in The Silmarillion. But...
Siege of Fellguard is a short story set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, written by Mark Clapham. This is my review of the story, with minor spoilers. The description on the Black Library website:
When the fortress world of Kelthorn voices its allegiance to Chaos, dozens of Imperial Guard...
I've written about how much I love a good gaming magazine before, and I've just finished the very good issue 522 of one of the few remaining gaming magazines, White Dwarf. I subscribe to the magazine, and it's a good thing I do because this isn't an issue I think I'd have thought to buy off the...
I'm one of those people who's best persuaded to try a new game not by the game itself but by the lore surrounding it. I've always been that way, since my first glance at a D&D Monster Manual back in grade school. When I bought Epic Warpath on Kickstarter, I put in a little extra to receive The ...
I love a game that's both a good experience and an invitation for expansion. A game that provides an experience that extends outside its own box is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of good product design. The HeroQuest board game, with its recent re-release, encapsulates the ability of a humble board...
Midnight on the Street of Knives is a Warhammer 40,000 short story by Andy Chambers. This is my review of it, with no spoilers.
From the site description:
Xagor is on an errand for his haemonculus master, the delivery of a thoroughly unimportant package and some tremendously important news....
I've started watching Astartes on Warhammer+, and I'm reviewing each episode as I watch it. There are major spoilers in this review, so don't continue reading if you intend to watch the series yourself and want to experience it fresh.
As an aside, I don't actually know if Astartes is a serie...
This is my final review of my read-through of the Armageddon Crusade book for Warhammer 40,000. For me, it's kinda useless to write a "review" of something I've not experienced in a game, but I think the Armageddon rules are worth looking at, even if only academically (until I try them, as in...
The third chapter in the Armageddon Crusade book is Assault on the Fire Wastes. It's about the assault on the Fire Wastes (no surprise there), and marks the end of the Third Armageddon war. This is my review of the chapter and, because this is the final lore chapter, of the narrative portion of...
In the previous chapter of Amageddon Crusade: The Red Angel's Gate, we were introduced to the major players of the latest in a history of conflict on the planet of Armageddon. The greatest threat of all, it seemed, was the Red Angel's Gate, a hole in reality and blatant invitation for the arrival...
I bought Crusade: Armageddon for Warhammer 40,000 10th edition. Having finally finished my Pariah Nexus campaign, I'm reading Armageddon chapter by chapter. This is my review of the first chapter, War without end.
I haven't played any of the missions yet, so this is just a review of the...
In tabletop gaming, I often find that uniformity feels like a wargame, while inconsistency feels like an RPG. When you've got 2 units of 10 soldiers, and 1 captain leading them, you usually think of the soldiers as generically "the army" but you're likely to give that captain a name, a backstory, a...
In 2025, Games Workshop released a War of the Rohirrim campaign book, as a special order only, for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. I enjoyed War of the Rohirrim a lot more than I'd expected to, and I still regret not buying the Quest of the Ring Bearer campaign book, so I ordered this cam...
I watched the third and final episode of Penitence on Warhammer TV. It's a story about the Adepta Sororitas of the Order of the Sacred Rose, and this is my review of it. I'm avoiding spoilers, but it is Warhammer 40,000, after all, and in case you hadn't heard, it's the original grim dark settin...
