Greetings, fellow slaves to Games Workshop! (I kid, I kid!)
My name is Cody, and I'm a student at Milwaukee Area Technical College, studying business development and game design. In one of my courses this semester, we were tasked to learn to play
WH40K (I have limited tabletop minis games via WarMachine many years ago), then develop a new race (whether a mod or brand new).
We settled onto Lizardmen, after an inspiring pitch from our now-product owner. He recommended some interesting fluff-based options to pursue, with some embellishing where appropriate (because we aren't
GW, after all...)
All of this was decided prior to the release of the Serophon line (I even emailed
GW trying to find some sales figures, where I was promptly [and obviously] shut down) so much of our team became distraught once seeing this development. Later, upon realizing
GW only shifted the Lizardmen from Fantasy to
AoS, we set about with our work again, but I need to confirm that we're actually doing something interesting.
I figured coming to the source (the people that actually buy and/or play with Lizardmen) would be the most direct and expedient way to get the feedback necessary, so I'll be posting at least one surveys/questionnaire, (found
here) to try to better understand this crazy universe, and those that play in it.
Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear back from you soon!
