Links you should try

companies | stores | games | resources | painting & modelling | clubs

Even though our website is probably the Best and Most Professional in the world, there's plenty of other material out there, and some of them might even prove useful or interesting. No, really!

Companies

Most of the good miniature companies are here and you should find plenty of goodies to spend your hard-earned on. You can order online from most of these sites too!

Games

This one's a bit bare at the moment because, really, Warhammer's the only game we play... but I'm sure I'll get around to putting the links up to other stuff one day!

Resources

There's shedloads of resources out there for every game imaginable and it would be a nightmare to maintain a list of them all, so here's a few of the more stable sites. Some of them are actually quite amusing, and some of them have an immense amount of content. You could stay online for hours...!

Army Builder

USA
Army builder is a great product for producing your army lists and we can heartily recommend it.
07.02.03

baalor.com

One of the best Warhammer websites around (even if I say so myself), Dragon Slayer Rob Lane's baalor.com should be your first stop for anything regarding Chaos or, indeed, the god Baalor himself...

Fiction for the Warhammer World!
03.04.04

08.12.02

Painting & Modelling

As you would expect there's plenty of painting and modelling sites out there, so I'll only provide links to my favourites... needless to say, you'll find most of these are Golden Demon standard!

Cool Mini or Not

USA
One of the funniest websites out there! The site itself is terrible and most of the paintjobs are below average, but it's good for a laugh and you occasionally find an absolute gem. The forums make me laugh, too... NMM? You can keep it!
08.12.02

Golden Demon

FRA
An excellent site which catalogues and displays all Golden Demon winners past and present, from the competitions in all the various countries! Very cool.
08.12.02

1st Company Veterans

The lads from Nottingham grace the internet with a rather interesting website based around their exploits at Warhammer World... mostly at 40K, it has to be said!
15.08.03

British Historical Gaming Society

UK
If you're a historical wargamer, these guys are the business - as is their regular annual wargaming bash known as Britcon!
18.04.04

Sheffield & Rotherham Wargamers

UK
Our brothers-in-arms in Sheffield, the GIMPS (as they are more popularly known) are a good bunch of lads that labour under the mistaken belief they are somehow attractive to ladies. I wouldn't touch them with yours, personally
08.12.02

Warhammer Players Society

UK
The best society out there, for me - and the forums are cracking too. If you live in the UK and you play Warhammer, you'd be daft not to join!
