The Assault Phase

Games Workshop has announced the date and logistics around the one and ONLY ONE games day event in North America in 2010.  With there being only one event that GW will be pouring their efforts into, it this the one worth travelling and getting tickets early for?

Over the last few years Games Workshop has endeavored to be more attentive to the needs and suggestions of you the individual hobbyist as well as the hobby community as a whole. Despite reports to the contrary, we do hear you, although we may not be able to react as quickly as many would like. We are always striving to put forth a better quality product, event or tournament and your input has driven many of these changes.

In the past we have had as many as five Games Days taking place over a calendar year across the continent and have scaled back since then to down to three. This was done to consolidate resources in an attempt to put forth an event that was “Epic” in scope and truly the culmination of the hobby experience in North America.

We have received input from hobbyists, clubs, and attending parents as well as from many parts of our own business on things that need to change or improve to make your Games Day experience a truly memorable one.

To achieve this goal we are redesigning the template for the Games Day experience and while we are keeping the time honored traditional bits that work as they are, we will be improving and updating many areas as well as adding new and exciting features. We have also made the difficult decision to only have one Games Day in 2010, which will be held in Baltimore on August 21, allowing us to focus our energy into one amazing event.

So please come and join us in Baltimore, Maryland on August 21st for North America’s GAMES DAY 2010! Keep visiting the website for updates on events, guests, and how you can make a difference in your hobby!

Make sure you bring your armies with you to the most interactive GAMESDAY ever!

Tickets will be available online only starting November 27th 2009 for $25! We are limiting the number of tickets this year and they WILL NOT be available at the door so get yours NOW!

Today Games Workshop announced that they are putting online a collection of White Dwarf articles from past issues over the years.

We’ve all got our favourite issue of White Dwarf, whether it is one with a great article, battle report or piece of cover art, there’s one issue that will always stand out for us as being the ‘best’ ever, fact. A somewhat heated discussion of this, helped us realise that really, over the 32 years that White Dwarf’s been in print, there have been hundreds of great articles, covering every aspect of our hobby – I even remember Jervis winning a battle report, once! How great it would be, we thought, if we had access to those articles of yore, without spending half a day trawling through the attic. Well now we, and you, do.

Launched today, the White Dwarf Archive is a collection of those great articles. We’ve uploaded them all as PDFs so you can download them, print them out, and read them on the bus, train or wherever. There’ll be new, old articles added every month and all you have to do to access them is make sure you’ve registered here at games-workshop.com.

If you head to the the White Dwarf landing page.  You can see it’s all organized by game system as well.  Then you can drill into it by gaming, tactics, etc.
