White Dwarf August 2018

Description

Entire planets tremble when the god-machines go to war… this month we introduce Adeptus Titanicus, the tabletop game of devastating combat between enormous Titans. Not only do we have the full lowdown on this game of giant machines knocking seven bells out of each other, we have Kill Team – small-scale skirmish combat in the 41st Millennium. It’s a fightsome month and no mistake! Also included are the usual Battle Reports, painting guides and Designers’ Notes – all the hobby love you need in August:
