that's a somewhat false premise. Those people would be people who bought all of cursed city, not to play the game but to use the enemies part of the game for an army whose battletome wasn't out yet, and who probably also knew about this rule because it was revealed pretty early after release. Also, that logic would, to some extent, apply to anyone who ever purchased models/an army based on the rules at the time of purchase = that logic would mean that changing the rules was always unfair.

oh come on. Who is going to be sad about this? Who does this hurt?

Ah! Draxed that one. I’m really hoping we get to see the Vanquishers, which I think is a new battleline unit I saw on the Pitched Battle Profiles list for SCE in the GHB2021

where's that silhouette for those of us not on Facebook?

Wow! Is there a collection of concept art from the films somewhere?

Hi arkanauts, do any of you know if we can all use the new Guild Triumphs now? I'm happy to buy the books neccessary to do so, I just wanted to be sure. I haven't played KO for a long, long time, but I can't wait to play them in the new edition!

they did it for 2.0, though?

oh right! I'm such an idiot. I bet that's what they're doing.

Do you expect the webstore to be overloaded by people preordering Blood Bowl pitches? It's not really a big preorder weekend

yeah that's what I meant, but it's good that you correct it. It's definitely the errata I'm looking forward to.

oh man if the FAQs drop today I will be so happy. It's the first day of my summer holiday.

I love the game, but I don't really understand why it isn't made with pre-painted miniatures. Those minis are ridiculously detailed and modeled in such a way that you really need to do sub-assemblies to even put paint on everything (looking at you, Mr. Sinister), and there's a certain way you're expected to paint them... I just don't see a lot of joy in painting them for anyone but semi-pro instagram painter heroes.

Thing is: Marvel Crisis Protocol is a really good game. I had low expectations before trying it, but I've played it twice now and I love it. It's just too expensive to collect for me, sadly, and painting something that everyone wants to be in one specific color scheme is just no fun.

I think they're pretty great! "Miscast" is new, right?

Ah, evidence! Wonderful. I'm not that worried anymore, then.

well, that's what I would do if I was them in this age of subscription.

Exactly - removing options like this seems to indicate that someone somewhere in the GW decision making process (on the board or something) has a really archaic view on how to combat piracy. I think that's the only reason they're doing this, as there doesn't seem to be another good argument for suddenly removing a digital option in 2021.

Ok so my main takeaway from that Dominion preorder article is that it seems they're moving to physical-only formats for books? They are very detailed about the different versions of the core book you can get and they don't mention a digital one. They do mention a digital version of the tie-in novel, which just makes it worse. (for those who are not following the space game, 40k moved to physical-only for rulebooks with 9th edition, and you can imagine how much of a mess that is with the current logistics situation)

Where did you see the Russel Crowe head?

what's the link for this one?

now that's something I could get behind! The Chaos duardin are back, they're mean, and... they're no good in a forge, but really great at selling junk to less cunning factions. The Hashut used-car-salesman-lords

good points! And yes, Game of Thrones is the best comparison, but the culture has even moved on since then. I don't think anyone would greenlight Game of Thrones in the form we saw it today. And to some extent, I think that's okay (but that's beside the point here).

you don't think there is satire left in it? (sorry mods, this is just interesting!) I don't read a lot of BL stuff and sometimes I worry.

but that film was way more satirical than GW will ever manage to be (and very directly left-wing political as well)

I hope not!
