White Dwarf 524 (May-26)
This month's White Dwarf magazine delivers arcane excitement with an expanded Anvil of Apotheosis, introducing fresh customization options for Collegiate Battlemages and the debut of Arcane Duel—a dynamic new mini-game for spellcasters. Witness the clash of titans as Ghazghkull Thraka's unstoppable forces descend on Armageddon to challenge Commissar Yarrick's stalwart defenders in an epic confrontation. Plus, navigate a perilous Kill Team Joint Ops scenario where your operatives must escape a doomed Ork submarine before it drags them into the depths.
Solar Auxilia Charonite Ogryn Section
Charonite Ogryns stand as the Solar Auxilia's most devastating shock troops—genetically enhanced brutes augmented with Dark Age technology that amplifies their natural ferocity. Forearm-mounted weapons transform each warrior into a close-combat engine: Charonite claws shred power armour with ease, while blades, crushers, and shredders offer tactical flexibility. Built for dominance on any battlefield, these enhanced soldiers deliver overwhelming force where it matters most.
Solar Auxilia Rapier Direct Fire Battery
The Solar Auxilia Rapier Direct Fire Battery equips two platforms with flexible weapon options—gravis heavy bolter battery, gravis multi-laser array, or laser destroyer—giving your infantry army versatile firepower against any threat. From swarm units to armored vehicles, this battery delivers competitive points efficiency and tactical flexibility for balanced force composition.
Solar Auxilia Rapier Fire Support Battery
Two Rapier platforms deliver flexible firepower for Solar Auxilia forces. Each platform accepts either a rapid-fire quad launcher or mole mortar, giving you tactical options without committing to heavy armor. Move devastating indirect fire support across the battlefield with the mobility of infantry—no tanks required. The mole mortar's earth-penetrating rounds bypass conventional armor, while the quad launcher provides sustained suppressive fire. Ideal for commanders who need heavy weapons on the move.
Journal Tactica: The Battle Of Tallarn
Expand your armored arsenal with an all-new mission pack built for Armoured Spearhead engagements. Dominate the battlefield with fresh rules for Dracosan Command Tanks, Spartan Prometheus Command Tanks, Solar Auxilia Rapier Carriers, and Charonite Ogryns—perfect for armies built around overwhelming mechanized firepower.
Grand Cathay Peasant Levy
The Dragon Emperor's reach extends even to the humblest villages of Grand Cathay, transforming ordinary peasants into disciplined soldiers. Mustered by the thousands from countryside and settlement alike, these levies form the backbone of imperial armies—raw in training but steeled by imperial will and unwavering loyalty. Where peasant forces elsewhere falter, Grand Cathay's stand firm, their courage forged in the shadow of the throne.
Grand Cathay Iron Hail & Crane Gunners
Master the battlefield with Nan-Gau's legendary firearms. Choose your strategy: Crane Gunners excel at ranged precision with paired rifle and shield tactics, while Iron Hail Gunners dominate close quarters with disciplined squad formations and devastating firepower.
