Weird, waste-of-time trailer in the link.  Two long ads and then 30 seconds of a WH40K figurine rotating in place.  It showed essentially nothing?

Gusington

Yes, the video was useless. It was totally garbled for me. Found that out after I posted, of course.

Probably an idea for a new thread....trailers in general.  Some are great, some are awful, and some show nothing but cinematic, movie quality cut-scenes that have nothing to do with actual gameplay. But, just like with movie trailers, they can make anything look good even if it isn't.

There was a game trailer mangled in there somewhere but it was covered over by the ad before it. At least when I tried to watch it.

I actually created a Regicide group over at Chess.com some years ago.   :)  Been burnt out of chess the last year or so, but I am still glad to see this become a reality.

Isn't it time to stop whoring out the 40k license and give it back to some good devs?

I think they think they know exactly what they are doing. I believe they aren't making the game everyone wants because they are afraid it will kill their tabletop sales. Thus, we keep getting this irrelevant licensed crap.

Yup. They've painted themselves into a corner.

Awesome thread, Gus.  Seriously.  Treat yourself to a Klondike bar.   ::)

Stop mocking the cocept. People have been doing this for ages with their Warhammer figures. There is a market for this.
