The ultimate editing F*CK up

Is it just me or is page 76 of this months white dwarf THE SAME DAMN ARTICLE as last month?

Space wolves wolf guard versus ork nobz

In the same way that 90% of so-called internet "tactics discussions" are the same, you mean?

I must have missed that one when I skipped all the stuff about walking to a mountain.

I just went through my iPad WD from last month and the SW and Ork article is not there.

Interesting because I'm sitting here looking at page 72 in last months white dwarf and page 76 in this months and they are exactly the same

Anyway I can post a photo from an iPhone directly?

Some international WDs last month had the rivals article, some didn't. We have two copies of last months issue in the house and one has it, one doesn't. Some oddness going on.

.... Ok so we KNOW GW wont let the Australian WD guys make their own content (see Liaus rift or tandaris outbreak) anymore but there are still discrepancies like which articles are included?


I feel kind of jipped, that's 30 cents for three pages I read LAST month

[RGilbert26]

Meh, I'm not too bothered as I haven't read it :P

Sorry for the flippant reply, I hadn't realised it was *exactly* the same article. I thought it was "the same" (as in, it might as well be the same stuff)! Apologies!

Something like this is generally post editing. A final production error, some mixup in the final files sent to the printers. Could have been someone trying to stretch their deadline too far and production had to start and old content was used just to fill pages on the order. The former is more likely than the later, but who knows. Either way, the change was made after printing started explaining the 2 versions and enough of the print run obviously had gone through that it would have been too much of a loss to trash the offending issues.

It sucks for those that got the old article. You'd think that maybe they would offer a pdf of the proper issue to those who got the old one but that would make it way to easy to pirate the magazine wouldn't it?

Hold down the power button then briefly press the home button on your iDevice, it takes a screen grab and stores it as a photo in your camera roll, then you can post it :-)

My copy of last month has Blanchitsu on p.72, and no "The Rivals" article. Sounds like some people got this month's Rivals a month early? Did you get Blanchitsu last month?

I must say, I'm loving new WD. Army of the Month, Blanchitsu, Parade Ground, Kit Bash, Battle Ground... They're all fantastic hobby inspiration! Jervis and Vetlock are always enthusiastic and fun reads, and This Month In is generally good. I'm dead impressed.

Yeah, I got the same in mine, no duplication here.

Yeah we've had a blachitsu every month so far in oz. First one was the intro with self portrait, second had all the converted fat guys and this month was the space marines (personalloy not a big fan of his marines, poses just seem off)
