Not really, last time I was at the store it was a beginners day.
The store assistant running a game of 40k, Orks vs Marines, bellowed.
All the Ork players yell "Waaaaagh!"
I paid for my goods and swiftly left, as a chorus of kids belowed Waaaagh!
behind me.

<grin> was there ever any doubt?
As I have continuously maintained, GW is a miniature company, not a ruleset
company. First come the minis then come the rules. Thats why their rules
are no better than "average".
