White Dwarf Issue 500

The 500th issue of White Dwarf is here, and it’s a bumper 192-page mega milestone of a magazine. You can expect all the regular Warhammer articles and fresh Bunker explorations, including new Scenarios of the Month, brain-twisting Boarding Action missions, and tools to play the mission featured in this issue’s Battle Report. There’s also a massive dose of nostalgia with a trip through the history of White Dwarf, including “The Cover Feature”, where the ’Eavy Metal team make dioramas inspired by classic covers, and lots of coverage of the making of the White Dwarf himself, Grombindal.*

Speaking of…

Grombrindal, The White Dwarf

The White Dwarf receives a fresh new look with this commemorative miniature that will be released alongside issue 500 of his very own magazine. You can read more about what went into designing and painting him in the issue itself. This version of Grombrindal is fully anchored within the Mortal Realms, and features a plethora of details that resonate with the Age of Sigmar – a Kruleboyz skareshield, Fyreslayer and Kharadron Overlord motifs, and more. 

As a limited edition miniature, you’ll be able to pre-order Grombrindal from Saturday the 4th of May, and he’ll be available to purchase from Saturday 18th of May 2024, to Sunday the 2nd of June 2024 – anyone who orders Grombrindal during this period is guaranteed to receive one.*

White Dwarf 500 Merch Box

Complete the celebration with a treasure trove of commemorative merch featuring Grombrindal himself, the 500th issue logo, and classic artwork from White Dwarf issues of yore. Each box contains a Grombrindal t-shirt, double-sided White Dwarf 500 hoodie, a luxurious faux-leather journal with a gold foil logo, six postcards sporting covers from first-generation White Dwarf magazine covers, and a glorious Grombrindal Displate to hang on your wall. 

It’s the ultimate gift for long-time White Dwarfreaders and devotees of all things Warhammer, so don’t miss your chance to scoop one up from the 1st of May at the Warhammer Merch store.

Solar Auxilia – Stormhammers

Stormhammers are rolling fortresses equipped with a veritable arsenal of high-powered weaponry, frequently seen rumbling into battle alongside Solar Auxilia Tercios and columns of smaller tanks to crush their enemies. This box provides you with two of these formidable super-heavy tanks at epic scale, both of which can built with a choice of multi-laser or lascannon sponsons.

Solar Auxilia – Malcador Squadron

The core of many Solar Auxilia armies are made up from squadrons of tanks, like the Maclador, which has its origins in the Age of Strife on Old Earth. Thanks to its powerful (and highly temperamental) drive system, this heavily armoured and powerfully armed tank is surprisingly fast, able to punch forward into the enemy battle line with great haste. This box contains four epic scale Malcador Heavy Tanks, which can each be equipped with various weapons, including a Malcador battle cannon, twin lascannons, or a Vanquisher battle cannon as its main armament.**

Dracosan Transport Detachment

Give your Solar Auxilia infantry sections the luxury of resting their feet by shipping them to the thick of combat in capacious Dracosan Transport Tanks. This box contains six roomy epic scale vehicles that can each be equipped with your choice of twin lascannon or demolisher cannon to provide fire support after disgorging their cargo of troops.

Legiones Astartes – Sicaran Squadron

The Sicaran battle tank is an advanced vehicle designed as part of a joint venture between Ferrus Manus and Roboute Guilliman. Fast for its size and packing a hefty punch, this extremely mobile tank exemplifies the Legiones Astartes’ ruthless approach to warfare. This box contains four epic scale tanks, which can each be armed with either twin-linked accelerator autocannon or omega plasma array, and a choice of sponson-mounted heavy bolters or lascannons.**

Legiones Astartes – Legion Fast Attack

Help your Space Marines perform rapid strikes and flex to the shifting flow of battle with this collection of nippy vehicles and cavalry, which covers everything from rugged bikes to heavily armed skimmers. One box contains four bases of Outriders, six bases of Scimitar Jetbikes, four hefty Javelin Land Speeders, and four Land Speeders, for a total of 32 epic scale miniatures.

Legiones Astartes – Dreadnought Drop Pods

Hurl your Dreadnoughts right into the thick of the action by launching them straight from orbiting battleships in heavily armoured Dreadnought Drop Pods. This pack contains four epic scale Dreadnought Drop Pods with opening doors, which can also be built as Palisade Drop Pods – a new variant loaded with a heavy shield generator which creates an ordnance-blocking field for your troops to hunker down within. 

Warhammer: The Old World – Orcs & Goblins Made to Order

A selection of stone-cold classic metal Orcs & Goblins miniatures will be available as Made to Order items next week. You can lead your forces with a madcap Orc Shaman mounted on a sinuous wyvern, or with a thuggish Black Orc Big Boss with Axe & Shield, or pick up some lumbering reinforcements with a choice of Marauder Giant (a brute of fine vintage), two sets of Stone Trolls, or a trio of River Trolls.

PreviousNext

All of these items will be Made to Order products available to order from 10am local time on Saturday the 4th of May until 8AM BST on Monday the 13th of May. They can take up to 180 days to ship.

Osgiliath™ – Ruined City of Gondor™

Get everything you need to fill a Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game table with terrain in one fell swoop with this packed box. It contains a Gondor tower, three Gondor Mansions, and six sections of Gondor Ruins. Each of these is a modular kit bursting with options that can be assembled in a wide variety of ways, and can even be combined with other elements for near-limitless variety.

Darktide: The Miniatures Game

Take the battle for Hive Tertium to the tabletop with Darktide: The Miniatures Game. Your crew of a Psyker, Veteran, Ogryn and Zealot must dive into the sprawling hive city to stop brewing Chaos insurrection, represented by six Poxwalkers and 10 Traitor Guardsmen. You’ll get everything you need in the box to work together with your friends in thrilling missions, which can be linked together in a campaign complete with upgrades. This product will be available direct, and from selected retailers
