I noticed that they hadn't updated it in months, so they probably just gak-canned the whole thing.

Worth noting that their webteam is currently hiring, so it's probably just on hold until they can get some more staff to deal with it.

This, plus probably there will be somekind of redesign in the near future once they get staffed.

Call me a noob, but what exactly was the Astronomican (not in the 40k universe, but on the website) and what did it do again?

It's their online catalog of articles that they've put up on the site for the past year or so. Painting guides, scenarios, etc. A few good articles on there. Glad I downloaded all of the ones I want from there a while ago.

It also featured 'up & coming' things but as we aren't allowed to know what's coming next any more they've probably just divided to shut it down.
The last thing on there was some nonsense about fantasy orcs.

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. |
