Send rules questions to roolzboyz@games-workshop.com. Send all other mail to custserv@games-workshop.com. The official 40K netrep (online representative) is Tim Huckelbery (tyranid@aol.com).
Type in column A the amount needed. Add the armour, weapons, wargear in columns I,M,Q. Add the amount in columns J,N,R. Put the cost in columns K,O, S. FOR MULTIPLE BATTLES OR BATTALIONS, type over the totals in columns V ( W, X,then Y) , and space bar any blanks. THEN type the amounts wanted in column B(J,N, &R), and the totals will go in column W. This can be used for 5 batallions, or 5 battles with reinforcements after each battle. Simply 'space' the dead, write the letters, and get on with life. If you put the army total on line F2 the program will show you Total spent (F3), Characters(F4), mobs (F34) & support (F48) totals throughout the program. Mobs section will also show you (G34) how close you are to the magic 25%. Vehicles section will show (G48) you how much more you have to spend. We recently played a 5 battle war where we were allowed to reinforce with 1000 points after each battle. The losers would get more cover, or some other advantage, so the game waged back and forth. I set this spreadsheet up to track who survived, and to see my reinforcements kept the 25% mob ratio, and to track the war. |
Patrick Marstall (marstall@aol.com) tells me that a set of 40k icons are available for downloading as fonts:
The 40K Fonts v2.0 are now available. There are four versions, two big ones (~150K) and two small ones (~20K). The small files are the first (generic) versions that I put out earlier. These are two versions of the same font -- a PC (zipped) and a Mac version (stuffed). The font itself is a collection of icons from 40K, such as the Blood Angel symbol, the symbols for the various craftworlds, Chaos symbols, the glyphs for the various Chaos Marine chapters, etc. One of the larger files is the PC True Type fonts, zipped with PKZip. The other is the Mac True Type fonts, stuffed with Stuffit Deluxe. Each of the larger files contains several seperate True Type fonts:
There is also an attached 'readme' file with a more complete index of what's in what font. |
The fonts are at kewlaid.highfiber.com, in the /pub/rpg/games/miniatures/WH40k/ directory:
- Font.zip (small PC version)
- Font.sit (small Mac version)
- Icons.zip (large PC version)
- Icons.sit (large Mac version)

Warhammer 40k Frontier World
I am fascinated by fonts. I have no professional expertise in them, but I take great pleasure in identifying them and selecting them. It’s an interest that naturally extends to the typography of Warhammer.
Warhammer 40k Fantasy Grounds
While not everyone will share my fascination, some might at least be interested in one of its results. I have put together a Word template that replicates fairly closely the look of the original WFRP1 rulebook.
The text of the original rulebook was set in a version of Garamond (probably ITC Garamond). The initial capitals were in Stonehenge and the headings in Casanova Antique. My template uses the closest available free digital fonts. The text is in the default Garamond font in Word. Moria Citadel and Caslon Antique stand in for Stonehenge and Casanova Antique. Calibri is used for the dots that bracket headings.
Warhammer 40k Imperium Font
It’s not perfect, but it’s very close. The template can be downloaded for free from here. It requires the Caslon Antique and Moria Citadel fonts to be installed.
