Very much so: the feel was very dark, and the artwork matched. I don't own a
copy of Rogue Trader, but anyone who has read the intro to that game (the
'carrion lord of the imperium' bit) knows exactly what you're talking
about.<snip>

Hmm. I hadn't really thought of the new Titan that way, but I think you might
be partly right. To me it doesn't look really _very_ manga-ish, more like an
old Battlemech. Come to think of it, though, the old battlemechs were ripped
off anime (Robotech et. al.), so maybe you have a point.<snip>

I wouldn't worry, Andrea, we're fairly relaxed about things here. Lots of
people express various anti-GW sentiments, and no-one has ever gotten kicked
off as far as I'm aware. Bitching about the Workshop is one of our favorite
pastimes... If someone disagrees with you, they'll just say so politely.
