From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
→1994-2002
The first issue launched with [[Gav Thorpe]], [[Ian Pickstock]] and [[Mark Hawkins]] (who left after issue 5) at the helm. Their remit was to publish articles for all of Games Workshop's games, which then included ''[[lex_en_whfb:Warhammer|Warhammer]]'', ''[[Warhammer 40,000]]'', ''[[Space Hulk (Board Game)|Space Hulk]]'', ''[[Space Marine (Game)|Space Marine]]'', ''[[lex_en_whfb:Mighty Empires|Mighty Empires]]'', ''[[lex_en_whfb:Blood Bowl|Blood Bowl]]'' and ''[[lex_en_whfb:Man O'War|Man O'War]]''. While ''White Dwarf'' was focusing more on newer releases, ''The Citadel Journal'' was meant to provide content to long standing hobbyists and their collections.{{Fn|1}}
After eight issues, Gav Thorpe and Ian Pickstock left for ''White Dwarf'' and the ''The Citadel Journal'' was handed over to [[Gav Tyler]], [[James Funnel]] and [[Phil Lowe]] until issue 12. After that, the magazine was at the hands of the Mail Order team under [[Paul Sawyer]] and his assistant [[Alex Scott]]. Most notably, they introduced "[[Dok Butcha's Klinik]]", a showcase for gamer's conversions, which became the longest running column in the magazine.{{Fn|1}}
With issue 18, the format of the Journal changed: The magazine went down to a pocket sized format with a higher page count.{{Fn|1}}
