OK...
I'm confused.
With the addition to the game of these scale of scenery, The scale creep, and the ongoing... things going on with GW sticking it to fan sites, I have to ask the obvious question=
What is going on with a company that can go to this level of detail with scenery, models, and excessive amounts of table fluff, but can't get a solid rulebook, extensive amounts of time between codexs, and dragging the whole tempo of the game to a level of "Oh, look at the flavor of the month" to a whole new level?
How can they justify this with answers like, "Just d6 it and call it a day?"
Nice board and all, but damn. Shouldn't that scenery come with stock options?

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money. |

Doubtful that you're confused, your just in "gripe at GW mode".) The pretty obvious answer is that "Make plastic scenery" and "write rules, write codex, write faq, and send CandD to fansites" are separate skills. The person who makes scenery probably isn't also a lawyer working on IP protection.

....and lo!.....The Age of Sigmar came to an end when Saint Veetock and his hamster legions smote the false Sigmar and destroyed the bubbleverse and lead the true believers back to the Old World.

Hopefully GW learned something from that whole fiasco...
Yes, to tell you that their gak is made of gold, rather than finding that their gold is made of gak.

Pink case, that is funny because a few years ago I used to use public transit and would load my 'nids up in rifles cases that I painted pink and covered in Power Puff stickers. Figured I would rather the riders think me gay and toting the worlds largest rubber weiner (which made me laugh since I was also dating a part time lingerie model) than lugging a rifle and about shoot up a bus. Also a good thing that was not in Alabama. Ah, good memories.

Their twitter feed always has it up there, Aduro. They usually put the link up around 5am-ish EST.

Are those brigades any kind of a reasonable deal?
