Fancy a bit of daemon-hunting in the 40k universe? Within these walls is a short story by C.Z. Dunn is a 1930s-style haunted Egypt story, except Egypt is the agriworld of Niebuhr and 1930s is 40,000s. It's a good story, featuring Sister Agentha of the Orders Dialogus of Adepta Sororitas as its m...
Arkanaut is a Warhammer: Age of Sigmar animation on WarhammerTV about Kharadron Overlords on an expedition to find loot and get paid. This is my review of episode 2, Endrinfall.
In this episode, things are starting to look grim for the Therodosson. I mean, even grimmer than before. Upon e...
Early in 2026, Games Workshop released a new edition of Necromunda. This took a lot of players by surprise because Necromunda isn't one of the games that gets frequent updates, compared to the company's bigger games, like Warhammer 40,000. Even more intriguing was the game's new subtitle. It w...
Well, I didn't care about sky dwarves before Arkanaut, but now that I've seen the first episode I am determined to join the crew of a lead zeppelin. Arkanaut is a Warhammer: Age of Sigmar animation on WarhammerTV about Kharadron Overlords on an expedition to find loot and get paid. I was i...
I read All Must End, a short story by Gav Thorpe set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, and this is my review of it. There are no spoilers beyond what's revealed in common online summaries of the story. If that's too much spoiler, then my totally spoiler-free recommendation is: All Must End is...
In a previous post, I reviewed the chariot racing expansion for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar called Wasteland Death Race, published in issue 518 of White Dwarf. This is a battle report of a race, using the full set of rules (with build points and Artefacts of Power).
The game rules are basical...
One of the most fun things about wargaming is how well its scope scales. You can play literally one character in a squad as either a roleplaying game or a regimented skirmish game, you can play a whole detachment with anywhere from 10 to 100 models, or you can play with an entire regiment. Appropri...
I recently ran a Vile Secrets of Vulcoth campaign for 2 friends new to playing Warhammer 40,000 on the tabletop. I run highly narrative wargames, so I decided to run the game as a skirmish game. Besides that, I figured learning the game would be simplified for my players with just a few miniatur...
The year 2025 was a good year for White Dwarf magazine. Issues 515 and 516 released Space Marine Operations, a co-op mode for Warhammer 40,000, and I honestly didn't think it could get better than that. But then in November there came issue 518, which at first glance seemed like it would be an...
Back in November 2025, I wrote a review of the Space Marines Codex for Warhammer 40,000. Recently, I read the book again and was so excited by it that I felt compelled to write a review, completely forgetting that I'd already written and posted a review. This post is my second review of the...
Roleplaying games and wargames have drifted apart considerably over the past several decades, but they still retain common elements that sometimes go unnoticed. I've told people that roleplaying games were invented as a sort of alternate format for wargaming, but it doesn't resonate for someone who...
Left for Dead is a Warhammer 40,000 short story by Steve Lyons about a soldier in the Death Korps of Krieg, and his escape from the eternal war of the 41st millennium. This is the Red Badge of Courage of 40k, and it's written very much as an almost universal story that almost doesn't depend on...
This is the fifth and final battle report for the four-part Battle of Pelennor Fields mission pack included in the boxed set for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. I only own the mission booklet, not the boxed set, so I'm playing the scenarios in ancient Rome, as it's being invaded by orcs from...
Warhammer is so big that it can be hard to know where to start, or even if you want to start. Warhammer Academy is a new initiative from Games Workshop to shepherd people into Warhammer 40,000 through structured videos lessons and tutorials, in the style of a MOOC (massive open online course.) I...
This is the do-over battle report for the March of the Dead scenario included in the Battle of Pelennor Fields boxed set for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. I first played this scenario 2 days ago as a straight wargame mission. That was unsatisfactory, because the power levels of the armies...
This is my battle report for the March of the Dead scenario included in the Battle of Pelennor Fields boxed set for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game. I don't own the boxed set, nor any Riders or Rohan miniatures, so I'm playing the campaign as Romans against Orcs.
In the book and movies, Ar...
