This month Games Workshop is launching a range of incredible digital products, exclusively available through the iBookstore with the iBooks app, for use with the iPad. These digital books are amazingly interactive: you're able to swipe through galleries, view models from different angles, navigate through a Codex or a scenario, and even store battlefield notes as you go along. What's more, you can take your entire library of digital books wherever you want to paint or fight your tabletop battles.
New Releases Every Month
Over the coming months we will be releasing Codexes and Army Books, comprehensive painting articles, official rules for Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000, collecting guides and tactical guidance for making the most out of your miniatures collection on the painting table and the battlefield.
Games Workshop's digital products are exclusively available from the iBookstore. To download them you will need an iPad with iOS 5 or later, an Apple ID and the iBooks 2 app, which you can download for free from the App Store.
