Specialist Games

[Fenton]

Well it seems sort of official as most of the GW stores in Australia have it on their Facebook pages and according to a couple pages have consent by the CEO to release the news that...

GW will be starting to release their Specialist Games ranges again

Deep down I am still doubtful but fingers crossed

Hmm, that's a surprise to me!  I thought those were well and truly dead and buried, so bringing them back would be quite a turnaround by GW.  I always took their demise as a sign that they weren't profitable (or profitable enough) so could it be an indication that they've not quite hit the jackpot with Age of Sigmar and are looking for any way of bringing in new sales (and bringing old customers back)?

[Fenton]

One if the posts mentions  a new GW studio in association with Forge World. I wonder if its an attempt to lure some of their old sculptors and designers back

[Leon]

Possibly, but there could be some interesting issues depending on how the original games systems were designed.  Were the designers paid as part of a studio purely to develop the rules, or were their royalties involved dependant on sales/printruns?  It would be quite funny if they relaunched Warmaster and had to start paying Rick Priestley again even though he's now working for Warlord.

[Fenton]

I did notice on the original post that Warmaster was quite noticeable by its absence

And as I mentioned old designers and sculptors. SIT DOWN Phil your not going anywhere

I don't think there's any danger of that, Steve.

Still can't pick the locks on your chains then!?

It's being stuck to the chair with 'superglue' that's the bigger problem.

Isn't there a dremel attachment that could help?

[Techno]

Yes......But I haven't got time for a trip to casualty today.
Cheers - Phil.

Superglue. Yeah, right! You've been browsing the Top Totty thread again haven't you?

Thanks for that image

My brain has now shutdown

[Ace of Spades]

Unbelievable how quick an, in itself interesting and worthwhile, thread derailed again in pronographic insinuations and useless nonsense! 

I'm proud of you all!

Cheers,

Superglue and lube should definitely never be stored in the same place or in identical containers!
