It’s a Warhammer: Age of Sigmar pre-order weekend coming soon from Games Workshop. The Gloomspite Gitz get the focus with their Battletome and more!

The new Battletome: Gloomspite Gitz collects rules and warscrolls for the Gloomspite Gitz with background, Battle Traits, Battle Formations, Heroic Traits, Artefacts of Power, plus Spell and Manifestation Lores. It also contains rules for a Gitmob-focused Spearhead, two Armies of Renown – one headed up by Droggz da Sunchompa and the other by Skragrott the Loonking, as well was Regiments of Renown, Path to Glory rules and an Anvil of Apotheosis for forging your own deeply cunnin’ git.

You can also get the Battletome: Gloomspite Gitz (Gamer’s Edition). The more portable package of the Gamer’s Edition of Battletome: Gloomspite Gitz, it features all of the same material in a smaller format. It comes with a full set of reference cards.

Droggz da Sunchompa is the dominant leader in the Gitmobs. This corpulent grot rides into battle atop Jaggedsnarl, a wizened Snarlfang who has outlived many masters over his long life. They are framed by the radiant sunmetal banner known as Da Frazzlefangz which blinds his enemies with flashes of light, leaving him able to cave heads in with the Da Metal Toof, a war-pick made from a chunk of meteor.

Snarlboss and Wolfgit Retinue are there to harry flanks with keenly aimed arrows.

Snarlboss on War-Wheela is the most ostentatious of chariots. This plastic kit can also be built as a Frazzlegit Shaman on War-wheela, a gibbering shaman who summons scorching magic from atop a totem.

Sunsteala Wheelas are built from lightweight wicker frames and features gruesome curved slicers. They’re rapid methods to get Gitmob grots around. The kit builds two that can be customised with all manner of grots and gubbins.

Snarlpack Cavalry are ready to ride into battle to tear through enemy ranks with reckless abandon. This plastic kit makes three Snarlfang Cavalry with interchangeable heads.

The Doom Diver Catapult flings grots through the air with explosive helmets to rain down death from the sky.

Gloomspite Gitz Dice Set is here to show off your allegiance. The 16 dice are colored yellow with black ink, and featuring the visage of the Bad Moon on the six face.

White Dwarf 510 is on its way, and the focus of this issue is firmly on the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game – which has just entered a brand new edition. There’s a battle report, an analysis of the new edition, and an in-depth look at the new miniatures that come with The War of the Rohirrim – Battle of Edoras boxed set.

For Warhammer 40,000 there’s the first part of a deep dive into the design of the Aeldari, accompanied by a Combat Patrol for the Harlequins, and an exciting new way to play Aspects of War, which is supported by a set of 10 new stratagem cards.

The Orruk Warclans are the focus of this month’s Age of Sigmar content with a new Flashpoint article and Army of Renown. On top of that there’s pages of great Warhammer hobby articles, and the final part of the Tatters of Hope serial by William Crowe, and a brief look at how one Black LIbrary editor made the characters from existing minis.

From Black Library is Callis & Toll by David Annandale. Life in the Cinderfall district of Hammerhal Aqsha is rough – crime is rife and death comes quickly, but even here the ritualistic murder of a powerful ganglord is enough to raise more than a few eyebrows, and soon Hanniver Toll and Armand Callis are dispatched by the Order of Azyr to investigate this strange death. Reaching the heart of this mystery will be a stiff challenge for this daring pair, and you can find out how they get on in Callis & Toll.
