Steel Brain: The Realspace Raid Edition

Steel Brain: The Realspace Raid Edition

Players, the Drukhari opus has landed! Fresh out of the best Codex that 9th edition has yet seen, we had a lot of fun with this one. In particular, the secondary missions really fit the audience-pleasing, sensation-seeking Dark Eldar – I imagine these warbands fight under the shadow of party raiders crammed with partying spectators. Alongside it we’ve updated the Corsairs and Exodites – all are available here at the downloads page. If you like what you see here, join…

Steel Brain: The Death Guard Arrive At Last

Steel Brain: The Death Guard Arrive At Last

Minis by Paul Scott The Death Guard Opus oozes onto your screens today to bring a sinking, stinking sense of inevitable defeat to your skirmishes in the far future.  The Opus features all the stolid, plodding infantry you’d expect, with some of the XIV legion’s heavy hitting characters appearing alongside the usual unit champions to lead them, albeit in a slightly toned-down statline. Different Leader, Core and other options for the seven Plague Companies gives a great range of customisation…

Steel Brain: Literally. The Necrons Edition.

Minis by Jayne Whittaker Today we release the Necrons opus at long last! With a shining legion of new models and plenty of flashy new rules to sink our metal teeth into, this is a super exciting time for skirmish Necrons. If we could feel. Which we don’t remember if we can or not. Let’s look at two different warband builds through the cold metallic lens of having fun gaming!  #1 – The Proclaimers First I thought of a Royal…

Angles of Death: Daemonkin of Malal

Since the ongoing pandemic is still rampant (at least here in Italy) and we can’t get some games in, I decided to start a small series of articles providing a small knowledge base for people who want to hop in Heralds of Ruin with a new faction. Today for you I have an oddball Opus, showing the staggering amount of variety we can get with some dedicated fans and writers. It’s still in a beta stage, but we can get…

Power From Paint: New Necron Metal

Power From Paint: New Necron Metal

Power From Paint: New Necron Metal!   Over the weekend, we got some exciting news of a new edition of Warhammer 40,000! It came alongside a whole load of new Necron models in a very cool new colour scheme, and I wanted to try and replicate the look as quickly as possible. This post will really just focus on the worn-down coppery metal of the body. It makes use of the self-highlighting and transparent nature of Contrast paint, to produce…

Markerlight #3: Alex’s Genestealer Cult

Markerlight #3: Alex’s Genestealer Cult Prepare for the uprising, players. We’re communing with the Hive Mind via Alex, aka thatsafistin on Instagram. Praise! This grimy, subterranean mob of mining aliens is the latest incarnation of a Herald with, like plenty of us, a new-found excess of hobby time. If you head back to the start of @thatsafistin you’ll find a lot less grit and dirt, and instead the shiny yellow of the glorious VII legion reinforcing some sweet ruined industrial…

Tournament Report: The Second Terran Classic

Tournament Report: The Second Terran Classic

++ Inhuman howls ring through the underhive as humanity’s defenders hunt its own mutant aberrants. Eldritch rituals commence, runes are cast and balefire roars.

Nothing more, and nothing less. The time is nigh, and Winter will take its tithe…++ Heralds, this has been a long time coming. We hosted the second Terran Classic at…
