Summary

  • Warhammer 40,000’s updated app is now live, adding a new War Journal that lets players generate missions, choose terrain and deployment maps, and track victory points during games.
  • The update also lets users view an opponent’s synced army list, datasheets, rules, and stratagems on their own device, reducing rules surprises during play.
  • Battle Forge has been rebuilt for the edition with new detachments, Force Dispositions, and updated points from the Munitorum Field Manual, while previously unlocked Codex content remains available.
  • An online Munitorum Field Manual now replaces the old rotating PDF, updating alongside the app with unit and upgrade points, character attachment options, and detachment data.
  • Best Coast Pairings integration lets players submit rosters and scores through MyWarhammer, extending the app from list-building into tournament and in-game management.
