===Australia===[[Image:Dave-T-and-Justin-K-with-1st-AU-WD.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Australian editors [[Dave Taylor]] and [[Justin Keyes]] with the first copy of White Dwarf Australia{{Fn|14}}]]The Australian magazine begun in July 1999. Prior to this date White Dwarf magazines sold in Australia had been the U.K. edition with slight changes to store pages to reflect regional stores. When publishing began in Australia, Games Workshop OZ was granted flexibility to include more regional content from Australia and New Zealand.{{Fn|14}} This included articles that created new lore for the ''Warhammer'' and ''Warhammer 40,000'' universes, such as the [[Laius Rift]] campaign.{{Fn|15}} Australian White Dwarf started with its numbering out of sync with the U.K. edition, though in 2001 two seperate editions ([[White Dwarf 253 (AU)|253]] and [[White Dwarf 254 (AU)|254]]) were published in the same month, and afterwards the numbering was in sync with the U.K. edition. Games Workshop Australia would continue to publish their own version of White Dwarf until October 2012,{{Fn|7}} though by April 2006 the content had become the same as what was published in the U.K. edition.{{Fn|4}}{{NavtabWD-AU}} ===United States====
The US magazine covered ''Warhammer'' (''Age of Sigmar''), ''Warhammer 40,000'' (''40k''), and ''Lord of the Rings''. It also had articles on the hobby aspect of the games (modelling, painting, etc.). While the U.S. version had many articles in common with the U.K. edition, it often had U.S.-only sections by the U.S. ''White Dwarf'' and web teams. The cover art was sometimes different from the UK edition. Also note that the U.S. ''White Dwarf'' edition number was 1 behind its U.K. counterpart.
