Title: New Part Works mag with 3 pots of GW paint for £1.99
Post by: Norm on 29 August 2018, 02:52:48 PM
Saw issue one of a Games Workshop Part Works magazine in WH Smiths (UK high street stationer) this morning for £1.99 with goodies worth much more than that on the front cover (including 3 full pots of paint).

Full details on my blog

I think that is £10 worth of models and nearly £8 in paints. Just off to WHSmiths then........

Carefull, these are the special edition paints with crack cocaine in: you don't realise until you've just bought Issue 20 and by then it's too late...  :'(

I'm already looking at issue 2, it may be too late! By this time next year I'll have 2 new 40k armies, long hair and heavy metal t shirts. It'll be like 1995 all over again  8->

Just searching to see what GW are up to and I found this page with details of the first four issues: https://www.warhammer40000conquest.com/ (https://www.warhammer40000conquest.com/)

There's also this one with stuff about subsciption benefits: http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2018/03/gw-testing-new-40k-partworks-business-model.html (http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2018/03/gw-testing-new-40k-partworks-business-model.html)

Seriously considering going at least seven issues for the Mug, Poster and Painting Handle...  :^o

I will definitely hunt out #1 and #2 and push to #3 and #4 but at £32/month, don't think I'll continue. After all that's a Pendraken starter army each month.
