When they changed to the fat format, the magazine had articles worth
reading put back in it. The Q&A was excellent. I promptly got my 2 year
subscription and to my horror, the magazine turned crappy very quickly. I
have supported the company since the release of Rogue Trader, and I think
that have started something very profound in the gaming world, but
unfortunately, what they have they dropped to get the money of spoilt
little kids. It's unfortunate, but I have all the miniatures I need
(There are a few I would like, but I can make do without them) and I have
totally boycott the company since E40K came out. I stilll think their
boxed games are a good deal, but apart from that, I hate everything that
the company is doing these days, they are in it for the money and nothing
else, a very dangerous and ill-postioned place to be for a gaming company.

When you dream there are no rules, people can fly, anything can happen.
Sometimes, there's a moment as you're waking, that you become aware of
the real world around you, but you're still dreaming.
You may think you can fly, but you better not try it...
