Product description
This illustrated encyclopedia gathers character profiles, backstory and visual references from the Warhammer 40,000 setting, useful for hobbyists who want a single reference for armies, narrative ideas and display inspiration. It makes consultation quick for painters and gamers alike, combining portraits, lore notes and a physical miniature to enhance the collection.
Key Points
This volume is presented as the Warhammer 40,000 Character Encyclopedia and, according to the title, it is an Instant Sunday Times Bestseller. It includes a Lieutenant Titus miniature, which provides a tactile element alongside the book and can be painted or used in display. The book is suitable for readers seeking background on major figures from the setting, giving concise entries and artwork that help with character identification and thematic research. 📚
Printed content appears to focus on characters rather than rules or gameplay statistics, so users looking for core rule updates should consult official rulebooks separately. The inclusion of the miniature adds value for collectors and painters, and the book format lends itself to reference use on a hobby table or shelf. 🎨
Technical Specifications

Usage Recommendations
Use the encyclopedia as a visual and narrative resource while planning dioramas, painting schemes or campaign narratives. Flip to entries to select a colour palette or to check a character’s emblem and visual cues when working on models. For painters, the miniature can be trialled with chosen palettes before applying them to larger squads. For narrative-building, the character notes provide quick hooks that can be expanded into missions or conversations during campaigns.
Keep in mind that this title appears to concentrate on character exposition and imagery rather than rules compendia. Readers who require up-to-date game mechanics should pair this book with current codices or the latest rule supplements. Also consider that the miniature included may require assembly or preparation before painting and display, depending on how it is packed and presented in the box. 🖌️
