White Dwarf May 2018

Dive deep into the world of the Idoneth Deepkin with this month’s issue of White Dwarf – it’s packed with information on this ocean-dwelling Warhammer Age of Sigmar faction, from a look at all the new kits, an extensive breakdown of the inspirations behind them in Designers’ Notes and a Paint Splatter. It’s not just Deepkin, though: elsewhere in the issue you’ll find new rules for Necromunda, a painting guide for the Doom Lords Blood Bowl team and a free minigame – Duels of the Crystal Labyrinths – in which you’ll pit your Tzeentch miniatures against each other in powerful sorcerous combat. All of this and much, much more:
