White Dwarf is a monthly magazine from Games Workshop which has quite frankly gone to the fucking dogs.
The halcyon days were around 98-99, when 3rd edition 40k was shiny and new and Adrian 'WAAAAAAAAGH' Wood worked there on a reasonably frequent basis. The general level of grimdark was pretty low and they even included battle reports for the good specialty games as and when they got released, most notably Mordheim and Battlefleet Gothic. Oh and they used to actually put army lists before all of their battle reports, which they eventually stopped doing because people with calculators were able to backwards engineer army lists from them and thus not buy codexes. Luckily the internet came along, making buying anything that can be stored in a PDF strictly optional.
Anyway, White Dwarf is alright, but no where near as awesome as it once was. The real point of decline was when it started shilling for the LotR game that no-one ever played.
And now GW has re-released it. It's now a decent magazine, but not worth ten dollars.
