NOVA Open: Reveals and Previews


The Nova Open is about to get started, technically on Wednesday through Sunday evening. As I was last year, I will also be there to get a first hand look at the previews and early look at what will be coming this fall. So while I am certain we will get a look at just what everyone will be talking about, I will make certain that we are all good and up to date for what is said there.


Here is a look at the the Warhammer Community is saying.......

Warhammer Live

This week on Warhammer Live, we’ll be bringing you the very best of the action from the Warhammer 40,000 Grand Tournament and Warhammer 40,000 Invitational with FOUR straight days of streaming. Both events will feature the world’s best players and lists battling it out in a series of tactical bouts – if you’re looking to learn how the pros play, then you’ll want to tune in.
Such a major event called for some very special hosts, and so, we’ve brought tournament regular Frankie – a long-standing expert when it comes to all things Warhammer – and Geoff “iNcontroL” Robinson – a seasoned pro in both digital and tabletop strategy gaming – into the Warhammer Community team. They’ll be sharing their insights and predictions throughout the game, like a tutorial in advanced Warhammer 40,000 while you watch.

Middle-earth at NOVA

With the new edition of the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game launching this weekend, Adam Troke – part of the team behind the game – will be on hand with a preview seminar looking at what fans can expect for the game going forward (in short – you’ve got a lot to look forward to).

A Studio Preview To Remember

That’s not all – hot on the heels of a thrilling set of teases at Warhammer Fest, we’re bringing you yet another Warhammer Community and Studio Preview, offering you insights into just what the next few months for Warhammer will bring.

We already know some of what the future holds with OrksRogue TraderBeasts of Chaos and Nightvault on the way – prepare for more info on some of those, and other stuff you didn’t even know you were looking forward to…it’s going to be a big one.

We’ll be posting our roundup of the studio preview as soon as we can after the doors close on the seminar – make sure to check back on Wednesday this week to make sure you don’t miss it. In the meantime, you can check out our notes from the last studio preview and start speculating at just
