The link for Kislev in this article sends you to an article about a Hebrew month, not one about the ficticious Russia-based nation of the Warhammer world.

[edit] Colour Magic

As the eight winds of magic seems to be tied to the Empire (rather than being accepted and used as an "explanation" of magic world-wide) wouldn't it be appropriate to add such a section (or link, if a separate article exists)?195.24.29.51 15:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone have a good picture of the Wheel of Magic (showing the eight winds, as well as their relation to each other)?195.24.29.51 15:41, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Provinces

Most of the information on the provinces here is woefully out of date, probably because the official background has changed substantially over the last ten-fifteen years. Many fans are very attached to the old 3rd edition background, and the information here seems to be an attempt to fudge the issue and retaining as much of the older stuff as possible. This doesn't stop it being wrong, though- an awful lot of the information presented here has no basis in the current written background at all.

Perhaps a compromise could be reached where the correct (current) information is presented here, but the older background is linked to or referenced in some other way?

Yes, there should always be a mention of how GW has changed what is the background material. Mathmo Talk 08:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
I have added an article about the region of Talabecland and will continue to update the other articles regarding the Provices using what Information I can gleam from the Empire army book.

If you could think of ways for to improve my Articles I have written just message me.--Erstedorf 15:52, 31 January 2007 (UTC)


Hi I think its true what you say but I also have something to add when we speak about provinces. I dont know much about it but I know it was abbandoned and that it exists. Neuland on the island of Albion or something like that I have heard a lot of and it would be fun to read something about that in your special province section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by King Cheos (talk • contribs) 10:43, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Interview with Graham McNeill (Empire 7th ed designer)

There's an interview with Graham McNeill, the designer of the new Army Book for the Empire available on the warvault. Great source of info for an "army design" section if anyone is planning on making one.

[edit] Add section on Colleges of Magic

Should a section be added about the colleges of magic? They are mentioned a frequently in Empire articles yet there is no information about them. --^_^ z0rgani5t^_^ 11:47, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Empire07.jpg

Image:Empire07.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
