Today I review White Dwarf issue #497. The Warhammer bunker starts a crusade. There’s a new combat patrol. And we can now play Warhammer Underworlds without cards?

Buying underworlds bands is awesome, 1 box and all to play no only underworlds, but warcry and AOS too (I'd even ague cursed city)
Not much for Warhammer or 40k these days, however anytime I hear somebody say Tomb Kings my ears unexpectedly perk up. 😉
Love WarCry factions, easy to get ready, lots of usability in GW specifically but Hobby use in general.
A couple of 90s throwbacks in this issue. Washes were one of the first ways I learned to paint (with GW inks). I always struggled to avoid blotcheyness (not sure if that is a word) so hopefully there is some advice on how to avoid that in this article. Nice review again Miranda and team.
Underworlds without cards is a dream come true.
The name Von Ryan's Lictors comes from an early codex, maybe 3rd Ed where they are mentioned in a little bit of story, talking about specific variants of Tyranids. I liked the Kill Team article the most because that is the only GW game I am still playing, Love Kill Team.
Cool 👍
497? I haven't even received 496 from my subscription yet. Games Workshop is such an ass company.
Tome Keeper's is the White Dwarf teas homebrew chapter, so some older white dwarf magazines, there was even a WD with tranafers if i'm not mistaken.
When you said Warmachine, I had been, to that point, only listening and made one of those mad scrambles for the phone, knocking it to the floor 🤦♂️ Love the content and viewpoints. Thank you for sharing 🙏
I like the cards for Underworlds. More on that, I think it's either cards or no cards at all; I think prebuilt decks are fine for building a foundation but if there is no variance at all (game to game) I don't think it's worth the extra game element. Having dabbled with Hrothgorn's Mantrappers back in the day the cards let you customise your playstyle within a more restrictive environment of "this set of miniatures".
Been watching your career, over the years, in the gaming industry and would like to say you bring a delightful, much needed, quality. Keep up the great work! I wish you the very best!
