Point taken. And deep down I wish too that they had individual mags for each
game. But I also know, like you said, that that'll never happen. Speaking
for myself though, I occasionally enjoy reading about stuff about the other
games as sometimes they provide ideas for the game I like, and make for good
reading during lunch at work. That and it would be alot easier than forcing
themselves to come up with enough material to fill two mags as as opposed to
the suggested one. Theoretically the +ACI-mega-mag+ACI- would be considerably
thicker, thus the higher price. In reality they may eventually slack in the
article:ad ratio. If the content wasn't worthy of the price, even I (ever
the hopeful purchaser hoping for something I can use or will entertain me)
would stop paying full cover price every month like I used to do with both
WD and CJ until the past few months.

+AD4-I'd rather pay 4 bucks for a mag that just covered Warhammer than pay 10
+AD4-bucks for something that covered a bunch of useless WH40K and E40K stuff in
+AD4-it too (just an example, I don't really think the information is useless,
+AD4-just that if I want to by a mag for E40K then that is what should be in it
+AD4-nothing else). They should split up the magazine in to sepparate mags each
+AD4-covering their own game IMHO. I totally understand why the will not do this
+AD4-though. How else are they going to adverties for the other armies. Also the
+AD4-same reason they won't split up the mag into different sections. Currently
+AD4-by scattering and mixing the games up in the mag you have to scan through
+AD4-those section on the other games to get to the info you want to read (more
+AD4-advertisement and marketing tricks).

+AD4APg-I will have to agree on the lack and/or decline of usable info in both
+AD4-mags.
+AD4APg-It's too bad that CJ and WD don't just merge into a mega mag. I mean think

+AD4APg-about it. Here in the states a CJ costs +ACQ-8 and a WD is +ACQ-5 (soon to be +ACQ-6 i
+AD4APg-hear). Both of which are becoming full of filler just to make them stay
+AD4APg-thick enough to be (at first glance anyway) worth the huge price. Here's
my
+AD4APg-idea. Combine the two, divide it into sections throughout the mag (ex. a
+AD4APg-Warhammer section, WH40K section, an E40K section, etc..) so all the
+AD4APg-supported games have something (including the Citadel stuff and bring back
+AD4APg-the freakin' 'Eavy Metal), charge ten bucks and in the end you would have
a
+AD4APg-better deal than what you pay now (soon to be a total of +ACQ-14) for both and
+AD4APg-printing and shipping costs would go down for the GW side making it more
+AD4APg-cost effective.
