Once again from the onset there seemed to be a lot of hate for the new model designs when they were leaked a few weeks ago, but after seeing them in print (especially the Plague Drone) I don't think they look that bad after all IMHO.
New models aside, this issue just like in February's White Dwarf, had all the normal articles, (from Kit Bash to Paint Splatter) but featured no new article segments at all.
The highlight of the issue for me (and what many of you are probably interested in as well) was the Battle Report that pitted the new Daemons versus Space Marines in an objective based mission.
The studio miniatures and terrain for the battle report was of course gorgeous as normal, and once again the use of the Wall of Martyrs lines I felt added a a lot of realism to the table as well.
The Paint Splatter and Kit Bash articles were some other bright spots in the magazine, as this time they gave a few tips as to how the 'eavy Metal team painted the new models. Then it went into the more attainable painting techniques for the four flavors of chaos.
Parade Ground was back this month with a surprise third installment of amazing Golden Demon entries to drool over.
Checkout the video below for a more comprehensive look at this issue and the new models.
I also talk in depth about all the new Daemon rules I uncovered the end of the video! -MBG
