Why Mission Organisation Matters
Warhammer 40,000 is not won by destroying enemy units alone. Every mission card, scoring opportunity and resource can influence the final result. When those cards are hidden in a pile or spread across the table, important information becomes easier to miss.
The Fat Dwarf 11th Edition Mission Deck Card Stand keeps the information that matters directly in front of you, helping you spend less time sorting cards and more time planning your next move.
Six Evenly Spaced Card Slots
The centrepiece of the stand is its row of six upright card slots. Each card has its own position, helping titles and important information remain visible across the entire display.
Rather than pulling cards from a pile one by one, you can scan your active objectives together and decide where your units need to be before committing to a move.
Why the spacing matters
Heavily overlapping cards may save a little space, but they also hide the information you need. The Fat Dwarf design gives each card enough separation to remain clearly identifiable.
Turn Your Table Edge into a Command Centre
A Warhammer table is already crowded with models, scenery, dice, tokens and measuring tools. Laying several mission cards flat can consume a surprising amount of valuable space.
By displaying your cards vertically, the stand creates a cleaner gaming area and reduces the risk of cards being buried beneath other accessories or knocked onto the floor.
- More room for dice and measuring tools
- Less risk of cards being mixed up
- Clearer information for both players
- A tidier, more professional table setup
Integrated Storage for the Remaining Deck
Displaying your current objectives solves only half the problem. You still need somewhere safe and accessible to keep the rest of the mission deck.
The large front compartment keeps unused cards together and within easy reach. When you need to draw a new objective, the deck is exactly where you expect it to be.
- Store the unused mission deck in the front compartment.
- Move active objectives into the upright display slots.
- Remove cards as they are completed or discarded.
- Add newly drawn objectives to the display immediately.
Built-In 16mm Dice Tracker
A dedicated compartment for a standard 16mm die gives your most important tracked value a permanent position beside your mission cards.
This helps prevent a Command Point or battle-round die from being accidentally picked up and rolled with your main dice pool.
- Command Points
- Victory Points
- Current battle round
- Campaign resources
- Turns remaining on an effect
- Any other value represented by a six-sided die
A Small Accessory That Can Prevent Big Mistakes
Many games are decided by a series of smaller choices. Forgetting an objective, losing track of Command Points or overlooking a retained card can cost valuable points.
The Mission Deck Card Stand cannot make decisions for you, but it keeps the information needed to make those decisions visible throughout the battle.
- Active missions stay visible
- The remaining deck stays organised
- Tracked values stay separate from normal dice
- More table space remains available
- Your game state is easier to understand
