Hi Harry, Hi Lucy,

 hopefully you’ve had a good day.
 
We ended up having a pretty good day at Fest in the end. Not getting a seat for the FW seminar was a bit of a pisser but that aside I think we enjoyed it…on the whole.

 

It IS a sales pitch and it seems to be voraciously lapped up by most/all of the people there with no searching questions. I think there had been a few others level some harder queries at the FW team by the time I tackled them a bit but for the most part everyone there is a nodding head like some kind of cult almost and that troubles me a little but hey, we are all consumers to a greater or lesser degree eh?!

 

Fires of Cyraxus was my big let-down of the day. I tackled one of the FW writers who has just about completed a 40k IA book to cover Custodes and all that shiny golden OP stuff that people seem to love. That’s a good thing but thanks to that Cyraxus has been knocked sidewards. To the extent that nobody seems to have touched it for some time. It’s still there (apparently) but it sounded like it was either ultra-low priority or has a reduced enthusiasm level for whatever reason. Last year I asked Tony Cotrill and he said “Spring at the earliest” and to that end I guess they have been good to their word but having waved it at us a good bit I think it’s pretty poor form to have got nowhere with it in recent months. Terrible.

 

Harlequins codex was there on the stand but behind glass. Two staffers said it was on pre-order this weekend so that’s your worry answered I guess.

 

Titanicus looked okay…ish but I have zero enthusiasm for another game I’ll not have the time for. If I really DID have the time I think I’d go Sigmar but I really don’t so I absolutely won’t, at least not any time soon. If I did want to do something different I’d get out my HH Mechanicum stuff and my Age of Darkness rules! (as an aside I have just bought a new rules set – Burrows and Badgers plus 9 figures to paint up and try it out but it’s light-hearted and with the kids so it doesn’t quite count in the same manner).

 

I didn’t ask about the loss of the 30k Magos directly as I got sidetracked about the Aurox and the withdrawal of SA tank gunners the same day (see Outer Circle’s excellent and scathing video). I did at least get a frustrated look and some humble-pie for the Aurox designer who felt that it had been fucked up terribly and that nobody knew that would be done, least of all the designers and they thought it was shoddy and daft. I left the Legion upgrades “last chance to buy” queries beyond referring to them and got the same feedback as the SA tank gunners. I don’t know enough about the 30k Legions stuff but they did say they didn’t sell many of them.  

I took a heap of really crap pictures and here’s a link to them all…

..use them (or not) as you see fit.

 

Tom Ames was hugely flattered that you were keen to get him aboard the Facebook group, he is even a FB user so that’s a better start than me! Email him directly and ask if you want to use his pictures but he verbally said yes when I asked although better protocol to go via him I guess.

 

Have a fun weekend, all the best from Rick and Hen’.
