Mat (with 1 T) Ward has really brought some new life into an old game. He gets a bad rap for some minor issues and deserves some love.

You guys never cease to amaze me. You have brought me the wonderous ray of sunshine that is Mat Ward's face. I don't think I will ever be the same again.

We share the same first name, thus I am almost as awesome as him.

Although, I shave and get my hair cut once in a while so I'm still a mere shadow of the great man himself.


We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

It is by Mat Ward alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the Blood of Angels that codecies acquire dreadnaughts, the dreadnaughts acquire rifles. The riflemen become psyflemen. It is by Mat Ward alone I set my mind in motion.

Why do they call them riflemen dreads? Autocannons are machine guns, not rifles. I wouldn't call something or someone who sprays the enemy with a rain of bullets a "rifleman". A lascannon is probably the closest thing to a rifle, even though it's a mega uber laZor thing.

It diverts from the gloriousness that is Mat Ward, but...google Battletech and Rifleman and you will see where it comes from.

Well, my middle name is Matt, and one of my old bosses is named Ward...there we go!! I'll just cut a T from my middle name, steal my old boss's name...and voila! I am the second coming of Mat Ward. Today almost makes me not hate Valentines Day...almost. I'm still going to go get gakfaced. If you don't see me on here later tonight, I didn't survive the "party." Oh well, at least with this thread we can treat V-Day as a joke, as well as a celebration for those in relationships and a vicious crushing of the spirit of those who are not. Hurray for today!

Mat you touched my world yet fleetingly
With a book of daemonic yore
Changing the game forever
And making one matchup truly a bore

I do not know
If you will return to warhammer
But I wish you did not go
The beastmen book needs an update

Older version of the Rifleman battlemech.

See a resemblance?

Sigh. Kids these days.

Wait... we need some sort of a 'Ward' mech. 200 tons, covered in ER-PPCS and has a million double heatsinks. With 6 arms, each with a battleaxe. That are also covered in pulse lasers.

Why should Games Workshop be the only company to benefit from the legend that is Matt Ward?

Let's get him writing for Privateer Press! And Wyrd! Corvus Belli too, and I'm sure the Battlefront team could use him as well.
