No of course they won't re-release the same old minis - then people
would be able to play with their existing collections, and not have to buy
loads of new stuff...

Sorry, am I being just a little bit cynical...?   ;)

TWIMC, History is on the side of those who claim that 'The Evil Empire' is
really controlled by the 'marketing department' and not by the game designers.
It should be noted that in the official tourneys run by Citadel flunkies that
figures must be Citadel unless "Citadel does not produce a figure of that
type". Bye for now,

I actually like the new Warlord. What I don't like is the price tag
($30),
which is just plain obscene.

If they keep up with their current plans, I don't think GW will be a vaiable
force in the States for much longer. They are pricing themselves out of the
market, bith among the consumers, and among the retailers, where they have a
minimum order rewquirement of $600 AND two of every product. Note having
retailers sellking your product may work in England, where there is a GW on
every corner, but not here, where they are relatively sparse.
