G'day, Theres this magazine you proberbly have never heard of called White Dwarf Its actually pretty crappy for me right now as I'm only interested in LOTR, but some of you may know that I'm taking action. But for WHF and 40k fans its a great source of painting, terrain and sculpting guides, also theres lots tatics and battle reports for gamers. Well everyones heard of it, but i thought it would be worth mentioning. Alex

/Yes White Dwarf I seem to remember that one, oh yes I have issues 1 to 319 on the bookshelves, I still buy it but I do think that it is not the mag it used to be. I preferred it when it was a magazine about games and minis (anyones games and minis) still the new releases section always gets a good look at and I like to look at some of the painting guides every now and then.

I too, only collect LOTR SBG but i find that it is quite interesting to see all the W and WH40k models and see a few battle reports.

Like Elrohir, I've found that many of the tactical articles can be applied "cross-game-system" if you're just a little creative. I think there's some good things about the White Dwarf, and there are some things left to be desired.

I liked the deployment tactics in the newest one, they are very helpful for a person who's paint to play ratio is about 99/1

I remember reading wd when it was a mixed games magazine and I also remember the time when it changed to become inhouse games only (we were all moaning about it at school!!). Now it generally sucks, but the occassional issue comes along which is outstanding but they are few and far between. I think the editor needs to restructure the magazine and include more painting clinics and modelling projects (step by steps over a few issues or something to keep people hooked until next month..) I think it also needs more showcases as well, printing the best models sent it every month. There are so many things they could do to improve it. I have a subscription anyway just to keep up with the latest happenings and see the new releases and for the rules ammendments should i ever decide to start playing the game!!
