So far no one has it right, but it is pretty cool to watch people throw stuff at the wall to try to figure it out!

You do grasp that this kind of "I know sumfink you don't know, neener neener!" post is incredibly obnoxious, yeah? And not in a cutesy way either, just straight-up annoying.

I have a blog now, evidently. Featuring the Alternative Mordheim Model Megalist.

"Your society's broken, so who should we blame? Should we blame the rich, powerful people who caused it? No, lets blame the people with no power and no money and those immigrants who don't even have the vote. Yea, it must be their fething fault." - Iain M Banks

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal

Just as obnoxious as when someone does know something and a considerable amount of members attack that person and tell them they are full of it, don't know what they think they know or that their source is made up? Okay sure I guess its the same? Was not intending to come off as such but if that how you want to view it you are totally entitled to that opinion.

You have precisely one way to silence the skeptics, share what you know and be correct.

If you're not willing to take the doubters until your name is synonymous with Harry, Hastings, Atia and Panda, then don't say anything at all.

We find comfort among those who agree with us - growth among those who don't. - Frank Howard Clark

The wise man doubts often, and changes his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubts not; he knows all things but his own ignorance.

The correct statement of individual rights is that everyone has the right to an opinion, but crucially, that opinion can be roundly ignored and even made fun of, particularly if it is demonstrably nonsense!” Professor Brian Cox

Noone on this thread has mentioned that it is an event to celebrate the opening of the 100th store in the US. As I live in Japan I hope it is not this
By the way the photos have been taken down from both Facebook pages. I guess someone jumped the gun.

You're leaving out the possibility of the Realm of Ultramar gaining sentience and becoming a God-like being.

As bad as that sounds, its on par with the stupidity of the Imperium Secundus and Ultramar being the pit-stop for all the loyalist legions that did and couldn't make it to Terra. I'd buy it!

Asked my local manager in the UK. He hadn't heard anything about it. Said it hasn't come from head office.

So yeah it's probably something to do with the US market only.

Well if Captain Vyper does know what its about it eliminates all the options posted so far so this type of posting can be useful

(but only if you trust the poster)

I believe this might well in fact refer to the launch of new intro/starter boxsets which, initially anyway, will roll out in North American stores only.

Uses existing kits AFAIK but repackaged to make them easy to sell in less traditional venues.

Believe there is, of course, something of a narrative connecting them togther.

Battle of Verna ...? Or something like that anyway.

We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Might it be the 100th store *opened* in the US? As in, including those that have previously shut down?

I don't think they celebrate that sort of thing any more, the 100th store they opened world-wide was in Amsterdam and that one was unceremoniously axed a few years ago without much fanfare or anything.

How would that work red, since there were some fantasy-based "100" pics earlier in the thread, too?
