Editorial
Hi there! I'm back with a much more complete newsletter this issue, but still no battle results (send them in!). Hopefully, if enough people send in their results I'll be able to update the newsletter more frequently.

News
Battlefleet Gothic
As I looked down upon the Games Workshop I saw very few new things, so as I rested, I laid down looking up, and a saw something magnificant! I saw BATTLEFLEET GOTHIC! I saw a mighty space battle between the IMPERIAL forces and the hords of CHAOS!
From what I could see, you basically have large space cruisers with huge guns and shoot each other to bits. There are also small fighters and bombers, torpedoes, mine fields, planetary defences, asteroids, planets to orbit and lots of mayhem and violence!
What you get in the box set is:
1 BATTLEFLEET GOTHIC rule book.
4 CHAOS plastic space ships.
4 IMPERIAL plastic space ships.
1 Cardboard planet.
Lots of cardboard asteroid fields
6 Six sided dice.
6 Special dice.
1 cardboard Compass/Nova cannon template.
And loads of cardboard fighters, bombers, torpedoes and explosion markers.
A lot, isn't it?!
Well I will tell you more about this next time when I have a better understanding of this new game, which will include different classes of ships and their typical weapon systems.
New Website
And for those magazine freaks (you know who I'm talking about, Fred!), there is a knew Internet site with ALL of the Games Workshop magazines! It is called the 'BLACK LIBARY' at...
www.blacklibrary.co.uk. Now go and see! And spread the word of the 'BLACK ANVIL'! (After you've finished here that is!).
