I was on Youtube earlier, an advert came up. Specifically this one!

I've seen some blatant infringement on Copyright, Trademarks and IP but this one is a shocker!
E-mail sent to GW about it, I might not be their greatest fan these days but I find it insulting when others blatantly use their IP.

Collecting Forge World 30k????? If you prefix any Thread Subject line on 30k or Pre-heresy or Horus Heresy with [30K] we can convince LEGO and the Admin team to create a 30K mini board if we can show there is enough interest! |

Yeah, there was another thread where someone mentioned this.
It would be a strange twist if GW had lisenced the image.

I did a quick check, and missed that one apologies if I'm pointing out something everyone already knew about.
As you say it would be strange indeed.

It's a garbage free-to-play game using licensed images without permission in an advert. It's common with these kinds of things.
"Play Now, my Brothers!"
As an aside, consider getting an Adblock. It's risky running around the dregs of the internet without protecting your vulnerable parts. Be sure to make an excuse for Dakka, because <3 Dakka.

Let's see, it's been in Discussions twice, 40K Discussions once or twice, Video Games, Off Topic, and now News.
Anyone wanna guess which section gets this next?

No big deal it is news the first time people see it and not a thread people go out of their way to look for or notice so dupes of this IP violation do happen. I'll lock and move this.

Check out our new, fully plastic tabletop wargame - Maelstrom's Edge, made by Dakka!
