In the vague and remote hope that GW starts to do market research and gets an inkling that some people want to play a wargame and not Alice in Wonderland?  lol

A war game set in wonderland would be rather interesting, although probably not to the Reverend's taste...  :o

American McGee's Alice would be an interesting start for sure.  Great creepy game.

Every time I hear his name I always think it sounds like the sort of phrase i would use to dismiss someone as overly steryotypically american.

"hey, did you hear what happened in the states?"
"I dunno, Did some American Mcgee deep fry a gun?"

never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Actually, am I the only one who gets a Kingdom Death vibe off that slug?

I mean; obvioulsy the legs are just legs and not penises and the demon on top is sexless instead of sporting more boobs than a Juan Diaz Daemonette, but I still have the feeling some clues were had there...

And a dozen(?) pages ago I mentioned that GW is bringing the wink back into 40K, after everything went over the top grimdark with 3rd edition. Looks like I'm right; this will certainly earn a few chuckles each game.

Oh; and Little Shop of Horrors? I was thinking Super Mario myself... lol
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

I like both characters actually, although I'd prefer the slug to look less cheerful and more wretched/glum. Either way, I think these are a "buy" for me. :)

As always, 4chan has given me a few solid laughs.

I'm actually amazed how well this release has been received, It makes me think that AOS has been successful in attracting a more fun narrative focused player base.

The new female Stormcast is really nice, but I'm not going to buy an entire box game to get her.

When is GW going to start releasing females in unit sets or hero boxes?

It's about the only thing I would buy now to add to my collection.

that is a pandora's box you have opened there. People lose their shit when you say GW needs more females. (Be it gamers or figures!)
But why aren't there more female smurfs?
