The Grombrindal beard is a little impractical as it turns out; it gets in the way of the keyboard. Luckily I'm working with a very experienced and dedicated team who not only know this mag inside out, but also know how best to put curlers in duardin facial hair. For the next thirty days, this month's issue is, without doubt, the latest White Dwarf ever. | think it is also one of the best. There is a feast of fiction to sink your teeth into in our series of short stories, as well as returning favourites A Tale of Four Warlords and Index Imperialis. On the miniatures side we get a good look into the Realm of Life, and a showcase of the stompy, shooty goodness of Damien Pedley's Imperial Knights army. There are insights into the hobby from the legendary Jervis Johnson and the good doctor Robin Cruddace, as well as Warhammer Underworlds guru Dave ‘the Bear’ Sanders. There are features on venturing into (and even defining) the 41st Millennium, on navigating the hilarious carnage of the Blood Bowl pitch, and telling your own stories in Wrath and Glory. But the best part was rewriting and playing my favourite mission in a Battle Report - the four-player spectacular known only as Carnage. There will be blood (for the Blood God). Though the White Dwarf team have never really forgiven me for being a dirty splitter and leaving the team to write about goblins fulltime, working with the guys has been exceptionally rewarding. I have been collecting White Dwarf since I was a nipper, and contributing to it in one way or another for (gulp) a full haf of my lif. Its areal highlight of my career to be asked to guest edit the magazine, and fill an issue full ofthe sort of stories | loved reading as a kid. To those of you for whom this is your first magazine, good news ~ you've discovered a hobby so rich and rewarding it will sustain your escapism with cool characters and battles for a a lifetime. Venture in, friend, and never look back.
