This is disappointing news in my opinion.  I rather liked some of their role-playing collaborations, and even though the standard of editing and proof reading of some of the books was a bit of a let down, the concepts and narrative were well executed.

If anyone wants to pick anything up, I'd recommend making it a priority before the year is out, as it doesn't seem as though they will retain any of the collaborative works in stock come 2017.

I've played none of the 40k games they made, so I'm nonplussed about this. I heard good things about the world conquering one, but I never found the price worth it for something I might never play.

That's not blatant, this is blatant: I'm super happy that I'm playing Austria, the greatest nation in all of Diplomacy!

We've done drunken Dark Heresy and drunken Black Crusade. Fun games. I've got a pile of their 40K RP stuff for Heresy, Crusade, Only War, Rogue Trader. Good background material while maintaining the grim darkness we've come to expect.

If you can't make fun of something, it's probably not worth taking seriously.

You have to love the smell of science in the morning. It smells of learning.... or perhaps a gas leak.
