- Chapter Approved: Updated Warhammer 40,000 Preview: It is nearly time. Time for tactics to be re-evaluated, for new armies to be considered, for new battles to be fought and for new players to enter the hobby. It's time to leave Chapter Approved add-ons and trial rules at home. Time for the latest update of Warhammer 40,000
- Chapter Approved: Armoured Companies: By far the most common organisational unit of the Imperial Guard is the ubiquitous Infantry Company. Equally important as the infantry, though deployed in fewer numbers, are the Armoured Companies. Pete Haines, Jervis Johnson and Graham McNeill present and updated version of this fearsome army list for use in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
- Will of Iron: Christian Byrne completes his tournament army with a Dreadnought: Christian only has a short time before he takes his new army out on the tournament scene. This month sees his force completed, while his brutal education in the art of war continues as Vathek and his evil band take on the Black Legion, Speed Freeks and Dark Angels.
