The Death of Specialist Games [GW]

[Gen_Glory]

so was looking at some mordheim/warhammer forums and came across numerous discussions of Games Workshop pulling their entire specialist games line

http://warhammer.org.uk/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=113698

from what i gather this means all the existing stock will be sold/scrapped and games workshop will no longer support them

tis a sad time for fans of specialist games but it isnt really that surprising, no new figures for any of the lines have been released for nearly a decade and the rules are largely fan made now too

it would also appear the entire metal range is in fact being dropped
this includes all the collectable minatures

Really sad, particularly about the Dogs of War. 

[Silver Wolf]

Yes, they had some really characterful sculpts...

[Gen_Glory]

tempted to get the dogs of war but then i'd just be fueling the armadillos

[Jubal]

Yeah, I might but I never get games these days

[Gen_Glory]

summer is coming up

also we could just go to the old club

portugal the police GW anyway, they charge too much for everything and there are probably a lot of better systems out there for all their specialist games (and non specialist games too.)
