For those of you who may be wondering why June’s issue of White Dwarf isn’t already in stores, or has yet to grace your doormat with its illustrious presence, the magazine will now be released in the middle of each month rather than at the start. Don’t worry – the wait is almost over and you’ll soon have it in your hands. To whet your appetite until then, let’s take a look at what you can look forward to.
The Tome Celestial – the Vostarg Lodge
Learn all there is to know about the Vostarg lodge of Fyreslayers in the Tome Celestial. With a detailed history of the lodge’s founding, heritage and ruling lords, as well as a timeline of famous events, you’ll be spoilt for information. And should you seek to command them in battle, you’ll be treated to four warscroll battalions, full rules for the mighty Auric Runefather Bael-Grimnir, and a Vostarg-themed battleplan, Eruption of War.
There’s still plenty more Warhammer Age of Sigmar content too…
