No Astra Militarum in White Dwarf #8


It was widely thought that this week we would see the leaked Astra Militarum codex, Hydra, and Ogyrns coming this week in the White Dwarf for pre-orders this weekend. While I have not seen it myself, I am getting reports that they are not there.

What we are seeing is the new Void Shield Generator this week, which according to emails, is on the front cover of the White Dwarf magazine. The price we have heard (but I haven't seen) is $100 for the box. I hope it includes more than one inside for that.

So where are the new Imperial Guard? Well, we know that pre-orders come up for the Militarum Tempestus March 29th according to leaks. Apparently that means that the new IG will be sometime after that.

Please remember that these are early looks at the new White Dwarf. We have not seen order lists or anything else yet. Consider these rumors.

there is no mention of the new IG anywhere. Cover is the generator, there's about 15 pages devoted to Lord of the Rings, a quick Nids vs Imperial Knights battle report (Looks like Nids get hammered, 1 knight wipes out half of the Nid list) and the aforementioned how to deal with knights discussion with the developers.
