Am I missing something? A quick search threw up some hate directed towards him for the new (again ) 40K book, so this post refering to this?

[Vulpine]

All his crimes... gray knights, blood angles... You choose

[Fenton]

Until this thread I can say I had never heard of the guy...but from what I read online is true I dont think its possibly any worse then previous 40K editions where they used the same old tired rules and  where the new codexes inticed the lost and bewildered to buy a new army every year ( Its GW's business after all)...And what about the Bolt Action rules writen by ex GW staff, from what I have read about them they should be thrown in a bin until they come up with a original idea, and they dont seem to get villified for it.

I think it's fairly well-accepted though that Mr Ward has taken the GW-ness of it to a whole new level...have a read here (it'll make you smile, probably)

I'm quite happy with a quick flick of my 3rd edition 40k every now & then  

Actually, maybe that's what I'd get him for Christmas 

[Vulpine]

I like it! 3rd ed is on his list... If give him the 2nd ed but looking at 5th and 6th rule books the GW HQ staff have already!

1) Crayola Crayons
2) Hair Cut
3) 3rd Ed 40k rule book

Tell you what - how about some proper sci-fi rules?

FUBAR
Tomorrow's War

And a Sister of Battle to fight 

[Vulpine]

Come on Nick, you got him something already, you get him all that and he will feel really bad that he just got you a pair of socks.

One present each!
