Hi!

Well, the name of the thread derives from a member who pointed out that in Firepower issue 7 GW will mention a "new" epic edition called epic armaggedon. It seems they are adding more detail to the game and therefore some on the list (including myself) kinda think this is like re-inventing the whell, because SM/TL had already done this.

Of course the thread is accompanied by the usual tribute to GW's policies <evil grin>.

For those who want some more info on epic armaggedon go to: http://www.games-workshop.com/40kuniverse/epic40k/el_epic40k.htm

They alledge the game design is "open" to feedback as its created....we shall see.....

Peter
