Can you give us a review of the stuff?

Literally only got in 20 minutes ago, but..
32 Pages long
9 pages dedicated to the new dwarf models, Hammers/Longbeards, Dragon Slayer and Belegar Ironhammer
A write up covering the New Nids that is surprisingly insightful
A Painting guide
Design notes for the Dwarfs
And Hobby Bunker on the last page with a converted Ork Wagon and Some more Nids
It defiantly feels like a white dwarf magazine, Maybe not Worth £2.30 I paid but better vaule then the Old version for sure
Belegar Ironhammer is a bit of a Beast in Combat, Very High weapon skill, Stubborn, Can double his attacks for one turn, ASF +1 to wound with a 4+ ward, and immune to KB/HKB
Ironhammer sounds sweet. I am just worried that the White Dwarf will be even more of a joke from GW.
Sounds like I'll be buying a copy this weekend.
Is there any mention of whether these rules are exclusive to WD, or just a reprint of what is in the army book? And how did you get your copy so early?

As in the White Dwarf character? Or the magazine?
If the latter, what about it was a joke, exactly? It was a lengthy product advertisement, with a few hobby sections, battles, and Black Library pieces. Were they laughing about that? Are you implying there was a pun intended?
Besides, jokes are good things.
That said, the (old) "new" format was certainly better than before, but it still took a lot of flipping through ads and catalog pages to get to the good stuff.
If the new one actually has rules prints, and potentially supplements or dataslate equivalents, I'd say it's a step up. Every week, no less? Yes please.
Then the people interested in immersing themselves into the fluff, hobby, and collecting side will probably enjoy Visions.
Ask about painting commissions and more!
Did the magazine give any release schedule of the dwarfs?
Also, how much is the White Dwarf? Since im in Canada, the message was the weekly is a pot of paint ($5) and im sure visions is going to be roughly 15...... id be paying 35 dollars a month for advertising and the hope of some new rules?
I really hope Visions will have redirection back to the tournament scene. Including non-embarassing battle reports (lizardmen vs. TK, the DE one was god awful); get rid of miniature hall of fame (twice a year fine, monthly is just handjobbing it) and armies on display (these pics can easily be shown on the website and not waste pages).
There are no subscriptions to WD Weekly, so you can pick and choose which editions you buy.
Visions is a high quality printed publication full of pictures, in a new a5 size format. It's focussed on hobby and artwork, so it's likely to have little to do with the 'tournament scene' other than perhaps images of armies for events, and their hobby backstory. It will certainly include AoP:
