The annual Warhammer Skulls livestream provided a look at what's next for Games Workshop's popular multimedia franchise. Because of the sprawling nature of the Warhammer IP, it can seem a bit intimidating for newcomers. If you're interested in learning more about the history and lore of the tabletop wargame that has evolved to include dozens of video games and hundreds of novels, the first official Warhammer encyclopedia is up for grabs for nearly 50% off at Amazon.
Published last October, Warhammer 40,000: The Ultimate Guide is discounted to $23.60 (was $45). The hardcover book has been a mainstay on Amazon's Warhammer and video game reference book charts since its release, and the current deal is the best we've seen.
The Warhammer 40,000: The Ultimate Guide was written by Guy Haley and Gav Thorpe, both of whom have extensive experience writing about the franchise. Haley and Thorpe are two of the best-known authors of Warhammer prose novels published by Games Workshop's Black Library division.
The 336-page hardcover encyclopedia is packed with lore for each of 40K's many factions, plus illustrations and hundreds of high-quality photos of the tabletop miniatures, including detailed looks at how each army and their most important characters have evolved over each edition of the game.
Warhammer 40,000: The Ultimate Guide offers a convenient way to get up to speed on the in-game universe. Even if you aren't a Warhammer newcomer, the book's full-color, exclusive illustrations make it a great collectible and art book for longtime fans. This is especially true if you're interested in the tabletop game.
If you're curious to learn more about the Imperium of Man, its super-powered Space Marine soldiers, and its many enemies (and victims), or you're a veteran looking to admire some professionally painted minis, this book has it all.
The Ultimate Guide will soon be complemented by an official encyclopedia dedicated to Warhammer characters. Warhammer 40,000: Character Encyclopedia covers 120 characters from the tabletop and video game universe and will come with a free miniature.
The 200-page Character Encyclopedia will be published on October 7 and is available to preorder for $25.19 (was $28).
