Warhammer Wednesday: Herald of Oblivion is back on Steam!

A new Warhammer Classics event has kicked off on Steam and one of the games available as part of this franchise sale is Legacy of Dorn: Herald of Oblivion, Tin Man Games' adaptation of my Warhammer 40,000 Path to Victory gamebook*.

As the news piece on Warhammer-Community.com puts it, "The Warhammer Classics celebration invites nostalgic fans to revisit formative experiences, while opening the door for a new generation to discover the games that helped shape Warhammer’s enduring presence in PC gaming."

Legacy of Dorn: Herald of Oblivion - a vast, choice-based digital gamebook set within the Warhammer 40,000 universe in which you are a Space Marine - was Tin Man Games' first foray into the worlds of Warhammer, and was supposed to be the first in a trilogy of digital gamebooks.

YOU are a veteran Space Marine of the Imperial Fists Chapter. Equipped with powerful Terminator armour and armed with the deadliest weapons that the Adeptus Astartes wield, you are a symbol of the Emperor's might. Trapped aboard the space hulk Herald of Oblivion, and the only survivor of your squad, you must fight your way through the aliens and heretics that infest the star vessel and find a way to escape the horror and return to your Chapter.

Until 20th April 2026, you can download the complete game for just £3.97! So, in the Primarch's name, what are you waiting for?

* Which was first published in 2012 - 14 years ago!

Hope for Skye

Throughout May, you can download any ACE Gamebook or ACE Gamebooks Roleplay core book and supplement from DriveThruRPG.com for just £5 per PDF.

All profits from sales on DriveThruRPG.com during May will go to help fund an autism assistance dog for 16-year-old Skye.

🐾 HELP SKYE GET HER AUTISM ASSISTANCE DOG 🐾 

My friends Jeremy and Rebecca really need your help. Their 16-year-old daughter Skye has recently received an autism diagnosis, and an assistance dog could transform her life - giving her independence, reducing anxiety, and helping her return to education.

They have secured her place on the Autism Assistance Dog Programme (at a cost of several thousand pounds!) but they now need to raise £10,995 for the training stage. Every share and donation brings Skye closer to her life-changing companion.

🐾 WHAT MAKES AN AUTISM ASSISTANCE DOG SO SPECIAL? 🐾

These aren't ordinary pets or even typical therapy dogs:

Specialised training - These dogs receive extensive training specifically for autistic individuals.

Legal public access rights - They can accompany Skye everywhere - into shops, colleges, cafes, and all public places.

Life-changing interventions - They're trained to recognise signs of distress and provide immediate help by performing deep pressure therapy during anxiety attacks, disrupting self-harming behaviours, creating a physical barrier in overwhelming situations, and providing stability and routine in daily life.

🐾 HOW YOU CAN HELP 🐾

Donate today through this secure JustGiving page.

Share this campaign with your networks.

Organise a fundraiser, such as a bake sale, sponsored event, etc.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they withdraw funds directly.

If you can do nothing else, please share this blog post and the Justgiving page with all your contacts. If you were in Jeremy and Becky's position, wouldn't you do all you could to help your daughter?

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any help you can offer.
