New Warhammer 40,000 RPG announced

If there is any one game could possibly get me roleplaying again (given that the new WFRP failed although it does look very well done), it's this. Using the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay core rules, but adapted for one of the best realised gothic sci-fi backgrounds out there. Let's face it, it's more OTT that Dune, and better realised with better internal consistency.

Always have liked the 40K background a lot more than I like the mechanics of the battlegame. Then again, the battlegame is good.

New Big Mek and Sniper Scouts previewed

German fansite GW Fanworld has preview pictures of the new Big Mek (oh, and also the new Marine Scout snipers, for those that like Marines). All I have to say is Waaaargh! Sorry, will calm down now. Always did have a soft spot for the orkses, and they do look nice...
