Bloodbowl support
The problem with bloodbowl is that GW will not make as =
much money on it as with WarhammerFB/40k/Epic. Why?, you ask, well how many=
models do you buy for bloodbowl to make a team (about 16?). How many do yo=
u buy for Warhammer (100 to 200.) Sure there are some people that will buy =
enormous ammounts of Bloodbowl figs, but they are far outnumbered by the ta=
ble top players. Remember GW is not there to make you happy, they are there=
to make MONEY. If a line of product does not do that or does not have the =
future potential to do that then it's terminated.

was still their biggest selling boxed set ...
I play it
I=
love it
(Evil Sunz of Ulster orc team full 16 man squad 207 team rating
st=
acks of cash apothecary ff of 12 etc etc )
but it's not really got anywhere=
else to go
who out there who plays BloodBowl
1. regularly buys WD ?
2. buy=
s the CJournal ?
CJ was the only place there were any "additions" to Blood =
Bowl
What say GW publish the CJ articles in a WD BB special ?
maybe they co=
uld even make a human boxed team so human
coaches can expand their squad wi=
th differnt models in different poses
and don't tell me that Epic 2nd ed =
isn't dead in the water
you really believe they'll start selling 2nd ed bas=
