With all the GW standalone games out or coming out - Deathwatch, Assassination, Betrayal at Calth, Lost Patrol, Silver Tower, Gorechosen as well as all the GW licenced egames Gothic, Regicide, Total War, Space Wolf, etc

Might want a specific sub forum for them. Or at least rename the current forum so that it doesn't just read "Specialist and Unsupported".

Minor thing but just a thought.

I thought that GW resurrected the "specialist games" brand specifically for these board games as well as Bloodbowl and such. So it would be the best spot for them IMO.

Yeah, a slight rename/description of that forum is probably for the best to encompass that!

All old specialist GW games from Necromunda to Blood Bowl to Epic 40k. Plus any current GW standalone board games

Sounds a bit clunky. How about something like this?

All the old specialist GW games such as Necromunda, Blood Bowl and Epic 40k to the current GW standalone board games.

I think we may be "fighting the last war" here. It makes more sense to discuss games like Overkill and Warhammer Quest alongside of 40k and AoS respectively rather than alongside of one another in some third space. This is the approach GW currently takes, as oppposed to its old Specialist Games tack. The clearest example from the Dakka Dakka perspective is discussing Betral at Calth in the 30k subforum. Blood Bowl poses a unique challenge because its setting is otherwise extinct.
