It is not what it was. Games Workshop seems keen on ruining it all. In fact, they have all but stopped Warhammer Fantasy after decades, which has really upset and angered the fans. They releases some other rubbish that is just simplified down stuff. The rule book went from 100+ pages to about 4, so that should tell you how simple they made it. The lore is very good (especially in 40K), IMO, at least it was until they started to ruin it all. The price of the miniatures also when sky high. A fine example of a company just destroying itself.
Edit: They also give their license to just about anyone these days, so most of the PC games are horrible. A few are really good, but most are just cheap attempts at milking the brand.

I know, and I am trying to decide if it should go on my wishlist. I am a sucker for 40K, and the older games were usually oaky games, but I have not heard of the new game before.
It is nice that GOG keeps timing new releases for old games to be part of a sale as well.

Yeah, that's really nice. It seems like the "classic release" days have changed from Tuesday and Thursday to Monday and Friday. (Hopefully they change more stuff, like fixing the website and giving us back manual shelf sorting... :-p)

The old shelf is gone forever, lost to the sands of time. :-(
So how do you like the promo? I own two of the four games, but I am not decided yet about the new game. It looks okay, so I will probably add it to my secret wishlist. :-)

I dunno. I've never really known anything about Warhammer, except playing two games and having my legs cut off with a chainsword. (I bought Dawn of War 2 because the gameplay was something I was craving at the time, but I knew nothing at all about the universe.)
Plus, I haven't been in a strategy mood for a couple months. Still, I think the new game looks kinda cool. I noticed in the description something about "RPG elements" like leveling up skills and customizing units with gear. Sounds cool :-)

As long as a game is fun, then nothing else really matters for me. After all, isn't that the point of games? To have fun? Of course, that is the second point. The first point is to collect them all so they can look pretty sitting on your shelf :-) ... Which brings us back to Ol' Shelfy :'-(',',',','

I am not really one of those collectors. I have reached that point where there are only a few games that I still want, and I don't even have a 1/3 of the games on the site. I will leave the collecting to the others. :-)
*looks at picture of me and Ol' Shelfy that I keep above my fireplace while a single tear rolls down my face* :-(

I think I'm finally reaching the point where I say "Enough! You haven't even played The Longest Journey, and that was a decade ago!" >__o
*Kicks New Shelf square in the nuts* (Though I admit I like the tag system.)

I have not played that game yet either. The sequels don't look that good to me, they seem more like interactive stories than a decent adventure game, at least according to many reviews.
