What could be better than learning the fundamentals of the Warhammer hobby in a weekly magazine series? How about getting your very own models with it every week? That’s exactly what you’ll get with Warhammer 40,000: Imperium, launching in the UK in just one week’s time.
This series has everything you need to get started, including an awesome variety of models, paints, and tools in each issue, and tutorials designed for newcomers to the hobby. It’s the perfect way to start or expand your collection.
Pitting Necrons against the forces of the Imperium, subscribers will end up with two sizeable armies over the whole run, as well as scenery and a great foundation for your paint collection. Feast your eyes on all of the models you’ll have once the series is complete.
For a deeper look into what’s coming along with Warhammer 40,000: Imperium, this video shines a light on what you can expect.
Note that this isn’t just for new hobbyists, it’s also an excellent way for veteran players to bolster their collection with a wide variety of Imperial and Necron models. Check out the brand-new Primaris Captain available with Issue 5.
If it looks a little intimidating, don’t worry – every issue of the magazine has guides on how to assemble and paint the models you got that week, steadily adding more advanced techniques until you have two incredible-looking armies ready to go.
Not only will the magazine series take you through the process of completing your models, it also brings them to life with character profiles and step-by-step gameplay scenarios.
You’ll build up a coalition of the Imperium’s finest warriors, headed by the Space Marines and joined eventually by the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Adepta Sororitas, clashing with the Necrons at the outset of the Indomitus Crusade. There are in-depth lore sections covering the stories of both sides, as well as background information on the world of Warhammer 40,000.
Subscribers also get tools, brushes, binders, and art prints, while there’s even a premium subscription option which adds four smaller armies to your collection, including Chaos Space Marines, Tyranids, T’au, and Orks.
Warhammer 40,000: Imperium is being published by Hachette Partworks, with issues 1 to 4 available at your local Warhammer store from the 25th of August.* You can also subscribe to the whole series of magazines right here.
Want to get in on the action, but don’t live in the UK? Hachette is working to get the magazine launched in other parts of the world, so keep your eye out for more news when it’s available.
* Which is a great day for hobbyists with Warhammer+ launching on the same date.
