GW gambled on narrative. They put a lot of resources into producing the realmgate war books and the campaign material.

That gamble failed.

At least they tried.

It's not a complete failure - GW did manage to streamline the ruleset from something unplayable down to something understandable. That's no small accomplishment.

Yeah, you can't have a game based off of classical combat without having psychology,

That only works when EVERY unit in EVERY army suffers psychology, no matter how elite or powerful.

If any armies are Fearless or Without Fear, then psychology is garbage, and the game becomes better without it.

If you replace it with something like the old WHFB crumble rules for undead it can work alongside psychology and humans breakig and running, but adding dwarves and elves that are just rolling anything but boxcars with rerolls to hold it becomes a waste of time.

Or something as stupid as "Immune to Psychology"...

Another poster has similar issues with where narrative went.

That's MongooseMatt's blog. It is literally the same text as the OP.

Its been a while since I've read the original post and the two different names threw me off.

Oh well.
