I enjoy the system and intend to run more games, but I know that building a character can often be intimidating for new players. In this po...

Warhammer 40,000 is, first and foremost, a tabletop war game.

At Adepticon 2023, Games Workshop announced that Warhammer 10th Edition is imminent, set to release in the [Northern Hemisphere] summer. Nobody was exactly surprised at the news, because apparently it's time for a new edition based on GW's established pattern of a new edition every 3 years. That see...
