I think it goes without saying that the big news—no pun intended—in this issue is the coming of the colossals. Unveiled inFebruary at TempleCon, these new huge-based warjacks are sure to be a game-changer for many WARMACHINE players.Although the WARMACHINE: Colossals book doesn’t release until this summer, we’ve got plenty of sneak peeks and behindthe-scenes info coming your way in No Quarter Magazine. In this issue, check out Tipping the Scales of War, in which artdirector Chris Walton and lead designer Jason Soles talk about designing the look and game mechanics of the colossals.

It’s not all about colossals, of course, and No Quarter #41 features some exciting previews for fans of the upcoming IronKingdoms RPG. In Character Craft, we’ll take you step-by-step through the process of creating a character for the IronKingdoms RPG, revealing all kinds of cool mechanical details about the game along the way.

Looking for more awesome content? No Quarter #41 has you covered. If you’re a fan of the Trollbloods, you’ll definitely wantto check out the tragic tale of an epic trollkin hero in The Kalmieri: The Saga of Horfar Grimmr. On top of that, Gavyn Kylechecks in with a dossier on Captain Jeremiah Kraye, we explore the culture and questionable eating habits of the gatormen inGuts & Gears, and Khador’s Black Dragons return with a new Theme Force of their very own.
