White Dwarf February 2019

A new month, a new look at the new White Dwarf!

And this month, the new rules focuss is laid on Age of Sigmar, as they will rotate between both their main gamesystems on a monthly basis.

Yeah yeah, I know that one day I'll end up with and AoS army after all, but I haven't found anything to my liking yet (though I always can fall back on my Slaaneshi demons if I want to for events or megabattles).

This month's guest editior is Jervis Johnson himself, as they will finally continue their Golgotha game versus Andy Chambers, back for just this, using Kill team, so find out more later about this.  And to celebrate this, the magazine also comes with a special Temporal Distort booklet, more on that near the end of this post...

And at the back, there is the preview for the rules coming next month... and we are revisiting the Assassins.

The Temporal Distort booklet: this sall booklet reprints the original Golgotha game between Jervis and Andy from ages of years ago, as we write 1993.  And it was played in the now no longer published Epic scale of 6mm models as they took to the field in issue 158.

Featuring not only the game but only a few words on their running feud, it comes with the cover and backart of those days... those orcs look so tiny and cute, just as I remembered them when I... actually bought that issue back then and there.

So the booklet was an absolute memory lane winner for me, but even while being the AoS heavy issue this month, it did have some intresting stuff in there for me as well this time round.  yeah, I really should look into that Arena I guess...

Yeah, I'm a relic like Phil, the GW Antwerpen store manager, told me saturday...
