WARHAMMER 40,000

Warhammer 40,000 Flashpoint: Argovon System
Flashpoints are collections of articles that explore a particular region or war zone at a specific point in time. Flashpoints contain new rules for you to try out on the battlefield, plus new stories and background about the setting, giving you plenty of opportunities to theme your games. You could recreate some of the battles mentioned in the background section, convert characters, based on the heroes in the stories or build a new battlefield to represent one of the Theatres of War. Flashpoints span multiple issues, and articles are always marked with the Flashpoint's symbol, making them easy to find in your copy of White Dwarf.
