Quick Review of the New White Dwarf Magazine

This is just going to be a quick summary of what I think of the new White Dwarf magazine.   First impression of the magazine is that it was a better quality on the materials & printing.  There is way more content then previous White Dwarf magazines this past year; and even though I didn't read over all of them, they all seem relevant and not like the previous ones that were mainly just out to sell the flavor of the month.  The only thing that I didn't like was the breakdown of the GW stores in the back since they lack the state by state breakdown as before, but they have expanded the Independent Retailer section back to how it was before and they have the state dividers in this section.

Overall I think the new White Dwarf is worth the $10 US price tag at the moment, we'll see what next months White Dwarf holds in store for a continued quality.  Compared with magazines of the same price range, the White Dwarf is as good or better I think.  And maybe by the next White Dwarf I'll breakdown and get an iPad to get the new digital subscription, and see how the digital editions of the Codexes are.  And the digital White Dwarf runs around $7.99-ish maybe, and includes more digital extras with it as well per the GW website.

Congrats to Dreamforge Games

The Dreamforge Games Kickstarter Project for the Crusader was successful netting $205,000+ in funding, and numerous kits to choose from with the pledges.  Which I wish that I would have had more funds to pledge towards all of the cool kits that have been achieved on this Kickstarter Project, but for some reason Septembers are always difficult with funds for me.  Mainly do to birthday renewals on plates for the vehicles, and many fun things & expensive things happening around Septembers for me normally (trip to England 2010, bought my Mustang 2011, three different Kickstarter projects funded during September 2012).

Now for the difficult part, trying to make up my mind on what I want to get with the pledge.  I think I will stick with my decision from a week ago, since that was the funds that I figured on having available at the time.  So my choices will be four of the Leviathan Crusaders with all of the free extras, then  three of the 20 man boxes of Stormtroopers, three of the Support Weapon kits, two of the Beowulf/Grendel Cannon arms, one Nova Cannon, one Ripper Saw, one HEL Cannon, two of the 15mm Crusaders, and the shipping the ship them when they are ready to ship.  Since I can't wait that long for my Crusaders & Stormtroopers to get to me.

Again, congrats to Mark & Dreamforge Games on the success of the Kickstarter Project.
