Warhammer: Worcester

04/09/2026

Good afternoon Worcestershire! Saturday brings us a slew of new Ork releases and novels. We also have the next miniature and coin of the month (a Space Marine scout and Ogor Mawtribes respectively).

We are inviting our Silver Squig winners to claim their trophies.

You also have until the end of this weekend to try and claim the Tesseract Trial trophy for our in-store mini-game. Can our top scorer finally be toppled?

Good Afternoon Worcestershire! We are beyond proud to announce the winners of our Silver Squig 2026 Duel painting competition. We had an absolute blast and a nightmare picking favourites out of these entries as each one has been a joy to behold.

Please see the comments for our thoughts on each one. Our overall winners are:
Silver Squig Youngbloods: Archer - Imperial Priest vs Word Bearer
Silver Squig Adults: Steve (not the manager) - Bloodbowl Ogre vs Halfling.

Thankyou so much to everyone who entered. We hope you continue to make diorama pieces as we are totally inspired to do our own. If anyone didn't make the deadline and would like to come and show us their completed duel we would love to see them.

If our winners are able to make it into the store on Saturday the 5th we would be honoured to present the trophies. If entries could be collected from the store by the end of September we would be massively appreciative thankyou.

We will be announcing our Halloween themed painting competition very soon to coincide with our Store Anniversary in October so get your spooky thinking caps on ready!

Good afternoon Worcestershire! As we enter the final week of the Summer activities calendar we have seen a wonderful set of entries for the Silver Squig Duel competition. The team will be announcing their favourites and trophy winners over the next few days but you have not made it easy for them at all!

We will also be running the Tesseract Trials until the end of this week before crowning the high score winner with a kustom trophy. You still have a few more days to come in and try and top the scoreboard.

Also Saturday the 5th of September sees a new miniature and coin of the month in the form of the Space Marine Scout and the Ogor Mawtribes coin.

See you soon!

Good afternoon Worcestershire! For those of you looking to enter our current Silver Squig painting competition you have 1 week left to get your entries in for judging.

We will even provide the base. Deadline is 31st of August with a custom trophy available for the Adults and Youngbloods winners.

We've had some great entries already and we can't wait to see what others we get.

Good morning Worcestershire! Today brings us the release of White Dwarf Issue 527. The team have picked out some of their highlights:

Steve: "The new rules for playing as a solo adventurer in Warhammer Quest: Darkwater are really exciting as it means I can run the Druid straight away and fit games in around campaigns. The Secrets of the Jade Abbey article is a wonderful dive into the lore of the setting of Darkwater and anyone that knows me knows I like my stories. An extra highlight was the amazing Gitmob army showcased in the Tale of Four Warlords."

Jack: "My favourite part has got to be the Black Library section. Part 1 of the tale Voyage of the Saltfyre, From Under Clawed Foot. Seeing two Skaven crawl themselves away from a battle only to find a dimly lit ship full of rival clanrats was very interesting with my favourite line from Bluetongue the not-so-great Deathmaster. Mumbling to himself he just stops and softly says "For now, just tell me who to kill". This gave me shivers and I can't wait to read more. I also really like the 11th edition Warhammer 40,000 cheat sheet card. It's really well laid out and will be so useful for my next games".

Markus: "The designers notes article by the minitatures design team was a real highlight for me. They go into real depth on all of the cool little details of the Marines and Orks in the Armageddon box. I also really like the journey back in time across all the previous editions of Warhammer 40,000 from Rogue Trader to today."

Miniatures and rules for the new edition of Warhammer 40,000, solo missions in the Jade Abbey, and more.
