Unfortunately GW seem to spend more time putting the legal smack down on fans than they do producing gaming material, I'd say the tabletop battles come in second against the court room battles.

An unfortunate side effect of their popularity has been a sad slide to high prices, less innovation (just the same army's rules regurgitated for the new rule system that wasn't really needed anyway) and rehashing the same figures to try and get the kids to keep buying to stay 'cool'

Personally I'm still gaming with my Rogue Trader era beakie/womble marines I've had for years and only tend to get new staff when once-in-a-blue-moon a new army comes out that seems worth collecting. But I also tend to get my newer stuff off eBay now anyway rather than pay their high street prices!

Did anyone actually have a go at legal action for Neulevel operating an illegal lottery?

BTW my registrar confirmed that domains under dispute will neither show as available or taken under WHOIS. This seems bloody stupid as there is no way to know whats going on.

As for the IP claims against show.biz how the hell can you prove thats a trademark!!!!!

The whole TLD thing is a waste of time while we let the companies register their name across all the TLD's - whats the point!
