August Balance Update Recalibrates 40k Factions, Detachments, and Maps

The Warhammer 40,000 August Update delivers targeted points changes for Chaos Daemons, Emperor’s Children, Adeptus Custodes, Astra Militarum, Death Guard, and Aeldari, while Orks wait for their codex; detachments with prior restrictions are being loosened to expand list-building options; Death Guard can now combine Mortarion’s Hammer with Contagion Engines; map layouts are adjusted to reduce first-turn advantages, with more six-objective Disruption setups; September’s update will be the last monthly balance pass before switching back to a quarterly cycle, with August data informing September’s changes, and updated Munitorum Field Manual and related documents available on Warhammer Community Downloads.

Codex: Orks Unboxed — Pocket size, richer lore, and digital access

Warhammer Community walks through Codex: Orks, highlighting its new slipcase-softback design, smaller footprint, and a Collector’s Edition variant. The book boosts lore with a near-100-page bestiary, introduces a collector’s guide for six key detachments (with 15 total detachments to build Waaagh), and includes a back‑of‑book code to unlock Orks rules and ongoing updates in the Warhammer 40,000 app, plus eventual Orks Legends integration. Pre-orders start soon, and the codex’ compact size (180mm x 250mm) contrasts with last edition’s larger format.

15 New Ork Detachments Unleash Your Ultimate Waaagh

Highlights include Runt Swarm for Battleline Gretchin, Sneaky Little Gitz, Infested War Zone (2CP) and Never Enough Dakka (1CP), plus Brute Bosses and other enhancements that shift the balance toward Warbosses. The codex also introduces new unit rules, lore content and a code‑drop system via the Warhammer 40,000 app, with more content coming later in the week.

Warhammer 40,000 July Update: Six-Objective Purge Maps and Rule Tweaks

Warhammer 40,000 July Update: Six-Objective Purge Maps and Rule Tweaks

The July update for Warhammer 40,000 delivers the first monthly rules clarifications and balance tweaks for the new edition: Purge the Foe missions now feature six objectives and several detachments’ points and dispositions have been adjusted; Disruption maps have been tweaked to improve matchups; key rules interactions were refined (reviving characters, CP generation limited to one per battle round, dedicated transports must start with embarked units, units may only make a single normal move per phase, and stackable debuffs were trimmed); several smaller units gain or lose the Frame keyword, and there’s clearer guidance on first-turn deep strikes. Combat Patrol now has fuller app support with War Journal. The studio will monitor data and issue another update in about a month, with a quarterly balance datasheet planned for autumn, and the team will be at major tournaments to gather feedback.
