The Warhammer-community team brings us info on the exciting new 40k app!
The Warhammer 40,000 app will be a game-changer. It’s the essential digital companion for all players, and it will become even more indispensable over time. How? Glad you asked…
What Does It Do?
The Free Offer
The Core Rules for the game are included in the app for free, so everyone has a quick reference to the rules in the heat of battle. Neat, huh? Well, just you wait until new codexes start to drop – every codex written for the new edition will include a one-use code you can redeem through your My Warhammer account (we’ll get back to that in a minute) to unlock that codex in the app.
For Subscribers
Subscribers get even more – all your rules and points for Warhammer 40,000.
At launch, you’ll be able to reference the full rules from the Warhammer 40,000 Core Book. Yep – that makes this the best resource for Warhammer 40,000 gaming ever conceived. So, whether you need to know which weapons have the Blast special rule or how many Command points that Stratagem costs, it’ll all be at your fingertips.
Codexes – Future-proofed and Backward Compatible
As a bonus for subscribers, the rules from every current in-print codex and supplement will be included in the app from day one. This is the ultimate repository of Warhammer 40,000 rules – your points, your Relics, Stratagems, datasheets… everything. All in one place.
There’s never been a better resource anywhere for people who play Warhammer 40,000.
This is future-proof too: as new codexes are released, older ones will be removed and can be replaced using the code you get when you buy the new print version. All future rules updates, including errata, will be reflected in the app as well, so you’ll always be up to date.
And it’s going to get even better with Battle Forge, the powerful army list creator coming soon after launch.
What’s a Battle Forge?
This is THE most requested feature for any Warhammer 40,000 app. Battle Forge will allow subscribers to use the app to build and verify Battle-forged army lists. Whether putting together a Combat Patrol for a quick lunchtime game with a friend or crafting a Strike Force that will dominate battlefields at your next tournament, you’ll be able to do it all in the app and check that it’s valid and legal. And, of course, you’ll be able to use the app to keep track of your rules while you play, so you can leave the books at home!
You won’t have to wait long to get your hands on Battle Forge, it’s the first of many great updates planned for the app after launch. We’ll keep you updated right here, so stay tuned.
How Do I Get It?
It will all be yours with just four simple steps.
You’ll be able to sign up for a My Warhammer account before the app launches, which you’ll use to sign in to the app once it’s available. Your My Warhammer account will also be where you subscribe to the app once it launches, and then you can unleash its full power – easy!
How Much?
£3.99 – less than a paintbrush per month for all your rules in the palm of your hand.
When can I get it?
The Warhammer 40,000 app will be launching in the next few weeks, and even more features will be coming right on its heels. We’ll be bringing you regular updates, so keep an eye out here and on the Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page.
