War Head Civil War 2025 Rising

          As an annual occurrence, War Head Civil War has been fought six times, beginning as a 40K gaming day and later transferring to the scenes of the Horus Heresy. The focus of the event has always been in the camaraderie and the visual aspects of the hobby in miniatures and terrain, with the friendly games in a secondary role. One's wargaming hobby might be entirely different depending on who they surround themselves with - in a like-minded company where everyone feeds off each others' inspiration and shares the same gaming values, it's a creative and social joy like no other. Civil War has been created to encapsulate this principle.

 

War Head Civil War 2025 preparations are in full effect and we'll assemble for traditional Horus Heresy patrol skimirshes on the 11th of October! Secret schemes, new armies and fierce deployments await - read more about the format and what to expect below.

War Head x Saimaa 40K

Our commission painting service is hard at work all year around, and there's been some memorable gigs on the desks lately! We're now starting to book the last of 2025's commission slots and would be happy to discuss projects of any size and a theme. If you have a need for a painted force or a terrain set for any game system, but don't think you have the time or the skills to turn the vision into reality, send us a message and we'll see how we can help! Our service terms and portfolio are better described here on our commissions page.

We'd also like to mention we've teamed up with Saimaa Gaming in anticipation of their opening salvo - the Saimaa 40K 2025 tournament on September 27-28th! The event is about intense 40K in a cosy spa environment with a BBQ evening to top things off, what's not to like? War Head will serve as the protector of the Best Army Award, sending prizes and commendations to crown the most industrous hobbyist with. Check out the details and join in!

This vast Black Legion ensemble is the latest army commission fresh out of the War Head assembly line - these were prepped, built, based and painted entirely in-house for the customer to pick up as a ready-to-play collection.
