Also could be 30K. Think of all the sets going LCTB, perhaps it’s being ported over to plastic.

Well, there's Devil Pig's Heroes of Black Reach.

And Slitherine's 40k games.

But I'd totally be down for a GMT 40k game. I wonder what it might be, if it were done. A COIN game where one side plays at Cultists trying to take over a world, and the other side is the local PDF forces?

Super star destroyer for armada by FFG. Was excited then saw element games advertising pre-orders for it, at £166. That thing would need to be 3` long to justify that price.

it's the quiet ones you have to look out for. Their the ones that change the world, the loud ones just take the credit for it.

Let's hope not! Last thing we need is that.

If we're wishlisting, I'd love to see Aeronautica Imperialis using the X-Wing engine, that would be a nice surprise.


I doubt that will ever happen, but if it does, I'd buy SO MUCH of it.


I think Doomseekers is basically akin to Munchkin gameplay from what I can gather

Either that, or GW is letting Prodos replace the minis for Space Crusade with Space Marines this time. (Am I the only one who likes the figs AND wants to see a Space Marine version like the original?)
Prolly gonna be HQ. Warhammer Community mentioned it in their article, but it could be just me.

Tabletop game at that.

A tabletop game from a licensed partner? Who’s there they could license with? CMON, FFG, Ninja Division[i]? Palladium?

I was surprised to see that the Clone Wars content is currently focused on X-Wing and Legion, when it's Armada that probably needs it the most.

I fully expect the "mystery game" to be a "one and done" boxed release for a new Gorkamorka. GW loves their synergy, and with Orks being the next book up, I could see it happening.

Not sure they’re especially into their one and done stuff anymore?

If you look at the picture, it is clearly at the very least 24 inches long.

And I'm not saying I'm going to rush out to get it. But if I had the budget...

Nice to see they still care about Armada. Now if they give us Resistance/First Order...

My other thought on GW's mystery license is they're bringing in something like LOTR again.

Are there any big hot properties that don't currently have any sort of tabletop game?

Licensed games seem a dime a dozen for most established pop culture properties.

Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!

wtell, there was a point in time when GW actually had other licenses. They used to make Doctor Who and Judge Dread minis. So, it isn't outside the realm of possibility that they're doing something similar again (though both of those lines are being made by Warlord these days).

You know what I want? More Chainsaw Warrior. Or Doom. I wouldn't be adverse to GW getting the Doom license.

Where'd you get that pic? Because I saw rumor of this from 2009: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/467533/munchkin-40k-gw-and-sjg-joint-venture

Not saying it couldn't be the case that it took 9 years to iron out, but at the rate Munchkin games come out I'd be surprised.

Edit: Hah, that link actually looks to be a Rick-roll of a sort, so maybe this is legit.

Nothing wrong with muchkin i guess but god i hate their art style, and I can't see what this will add that would differ from star munchkin.
