A Quick Update
With the Astra Militarum series all finished up, the Ork Tactica is on the way and I've been preparing it for a while now. Unfortunately, I have also been quite busy in the past week and as such there won't be a post this weekend, but you can expect one on Monday or Tuesday. I have an all-day Warhammer Fantasy: Storm of Magic tournament to attend tomorrow, while also having to pore over the new End Times: Glottkin book. I'll likely do up a tournament report as well as a review of the new rules featured in End Times: Glottkin in the mean-time between now and the first article for the Ork series. Sorry for the "down-time" everyone!

Lizardmen - Unit Overview - Rare
Hello there everyone, I am Learn2Eel from Imperator Guides and I welcome
you to my latest Unit Overview series reviewing the ancient guardians
of Lustria, the Lizardmen (and Lizardwomen?). This is an army with a lot
of variety in play-styles, whether by relying on driving enemies back
through masses of hardened Saurus, crushing them under the scales of
titanic Stegadons or ambushing them with a thousand poisoned darts from a
writhing swarm of Skinks. Even if you are a mighty Oldblood far removed
from the mute inexperience of a new spawnling, I hope there is still
something useful for you here in this series. Enjoy!

Tactica Astra Militarum - Manticores and Deathstrikes
Hello there everybody and welcome to the final article in this ridiculously long series known as my Astra Militarum Tactica, a wealth of articles intended to aid you - the players and hobbyists - in making the most of your units and heroes. I can think of no more amusing way to end this lengthy exercise than by reviewing two of the most devastating artillery pieces ever conceived in the Imperium's forces, the Manticore and Deathstrike Missile Launcher. Where the former destroys entire swathes of the enemy army at a time with a split payload causing a huge spread of damage, the latter fires possibly the closest Warhammer 40,000 equivalent to a nuclear warhead - obliterating anything and everything it touches. These two are sadly not as useful in 7th Edition due to a few key rule changes or innate limitations, though they nonetheless provide an Astra Militarum army with some of the most terrifying weapons of war ever seen in Games Workshop's popular science fiction universe.

Tactica Astra Militarum - Wyverns
Greetings ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the second last addition to my seemingly insufferable Astra Militarum Tactica series! Of the handful of new units added in the latest Imperial Guard codex, the Wyvern is by far the most competitive option and has swiftly replaced veteran artillery batteries such as the Griffon and Basilisk as the best artillery tank available to the Imperium's most numerous defenders. There are few units in the game quite as devastating as Wyverns even with the 7th Edition rules ushering in more vehicles than were seen in 6th Edition, and no competitive Astra Militarum list has a place without at least one of these suppression tanks. I hope you enjoy this article!

Tactica Astra Militarum - Basilisk Batteries
Greetings my fans, friends, family and other followers and welcome to the third last addition to my ever-ongoing Astra Militarum Tactica series! As the trend-setters they are, the Astra Militarum are known for having some of the most iconic units in Warhammer 40,000, and truly the Basilisk continues that trend as it is easily the most well know artillery unit in the game. Nothing comes close to the colossal range and incredible firepower offered by a Basilisk (not among "standard" units, anyway) and while it might seem aggressively priced, the reality is that this is more of a niche choice that shines in Apocalypse games or in matches where the game board is well above the average size.
