Warhammer 40K: March White Dwarf Includes Printed Points Update & More

3 Minute Read
Mar 1 2021

Warhammer 40k fans, if you don’t have the March White Dwarf on your pull list, you might want to add it quick. It’s got some great stuff in the monthly Mag!

So what’s going to be in the March edition of White Dwarf that players are going to want? To start off – POINTS!

via Warhammer 40,000

“A 56-page printed booklet – Warhammer 40,000 Chapter Approved: Munitorum Field Manual 2021 MK I. Inside are updates to the points values for every unit of every faction for use in Warhammer 40,000 (including Forge World units), and it’s the only way you can get a printed version of these points.”

This is kind of a big deal! Now, there are other places to get these same points but this will be the only place to get the printed version of this booklet. This looks like it will be the update/replacement for the 2020 version. It’s the same page count as the current version as well at 56-pages. This is going to be a “must grab” for many players – especially if you prefer having a physical copy of your rules/points.

Free Warhammer PC Games

Also included inside the March White Dwarf:

“A Steam voucher containing a code that will unlock a whole bunch of awesome Warhammer games for free!”

That’s a nice addition! Although, it’s unclear which games you’re getting or how many. But “a whole bunch” is curious enough that it’s worth checking out. Hey, it’s not like you don’t have room in your Steam library for more games, right? Just keep adding to the backlog, I’m sure it will be fine…

Index Astartes: Exorcists

It wouldn’t be a White Dwarf without a new “Index” article and this month is swinging back around to Warhammer 40,000. This time it’s the Space Marine Chapter that’s all about fighting Warp Daemons. No, not Grey Knights! The Exorcists!

On top of having a wealth of lore about the Chapter, White Dwarf will also include some extra rules including their unique Chapter Tactic:

Wow, that first bullet point seems pretty great. And they get a 5+ “FNP” vs mortal wounds, too? This certainly makes them one of the sturdier Chapters around. I’m betting we’re going to see a few more rules including a Warlord Trait and possibly some unique relics, too. Toss in a stratagem or three and it should follow the pattern of other Index Astartes White Dwarf Rules.

The March White Dwarf is going to be loaded with goodies – and this was just the 40k highlights, there’s more! If you want to snag a copy, you might want to subscribe directly from GW or contact your FLGS to get in on a list/pre-order ASAP. With the inclusion of the Points Booklet, I think this is going to be a hot seller.

 

Yep. Time to double check on my subscription status…
