Warp Rift



Warp Rift: Warp Rift is the new web-based magazine for Battlefleet Gothic. Warp Rift is put together by a small team of dedicated Gothic fans, but it needs your contributions to continue.



Please support this publication. Send in your articles and submissions, and when you get a copy, get it here and download it for yourself. We need to see how many people are reading this publication, what they think of it and how they would like to see it improved.



Format: Warp Rift is produced in PDF format. To be able to read this, your computer must have the Adobe reader. You can download this for your computer here.



This format is used for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is very printer friendly, and allows us here at Warp Rift to compile a document and know exactly how you will see it, with the right page structure, etc. It also means that we can put this together to be read only, so that you know that your copy is unaltered. Warp Rift is designed to be downloaded, and then printed out, so that you can take it on long journeys or read in your breaks. Get in touch and let us know where you read the latest issue.







Submissions and Contacts: As a fan-based publication, Warp Rift lives or falls depending on the number and quality of submissions and feedback from you, the players. The editor and team and very happy to hear your comments and suggestions and particularly to get any article submissions. Any kind of article is welcome, particularly hobby-based reports such as tactics ideas, painting tutorials or just showing off some excellent vessels. Please contact the team before sitting down and spending a lot of time on your article, just to make sure that it will be included.



You can get in touch with the editor in chief of Warp Rift by visiting the Specialist Arms Forum.
