Rumors

• Rumors floating around that Warhammer Fantasy 9th ed is on the way and that there will be some major changes in the rules. Allies are being hinted at, a streamlining of the game, changes in the timeline of the fluff, etc.

• Eldar maybe delayed because GW is so far behind on production. That is just a rumor, but we are hearing whispers on the wind that the release may be delayed 2 weeks.

Rant Session

• Update! We didn’t think it was possible, but Keno’s LARP character got better! He bought a The Count costume from Sesame Street, and he is putting glitter all over himself, too! Amazing.
