Something else to consider. The people here on Dakka Dakka who angry are probably a minority. The angry veterans are also a minority. There are probably alot more happy customers out there who play the game for fun ( shouldn't we all?) understand that models cost money, and aren't unhappy or upset.

Facts dont quite support you there.

they expect GWEurope, which is where they had the losses, to rebound.

ROFL

If they did, they wouldn't have closed down all those European stores last month. GW is running from the European market like an ostrich with it's head between its legs.

For point A, as I have stated before, GWUS is in profit

Except, notthe profit they expected, AND its again I believe, less money for yet another year in a row.

Closing stores down in areas that aren't supporting the hobby is smart. You don't fish in an empty lake.

Yeah, but you don't expect to catch more fish after you stop fishing there either.

How are sales going to rebound in areas where they've closed the stores?

I don't blame them, I'm just saying that there statements are completely out of touch with reality.

**General Hobbs**

I guess they will open stores in areas where there are more fish?

Oh, god. Imagine the exquisite agony of the 40K rulebook translated from English to Mandarin, by GW, the company too cheap to hire editors... .

Actually the foreign language (German, Italian etc.) books tend to be better written -- or at least less ambiguous -- than the original English because they have to hire a translator, and he comes back with questions and gets clarifications on points that are unclear.
