GAW had a lean period with licence fees for desktop and console games but mobile gaming is hotting up."Who's up for another announcement of another upcoming game based on Games Workshop's popular Warhammer fantasy war-game franchise? You are? Well, in that case, you're in luck.Pixel Hero Games, the creator of the console-quality iOS adventure gameSpiral Episode 1, has just announced that it's developing an action adventure game based on "Xenos," one of the books set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. "Xenos" is the first book in the bestselling "Eisenhorn" trilogy written by Marvel Comics veteran Dan Abnett.The game is called Eisenhorn: Xenos. According to Pixel Hero:Set in the grim, dark future of Warhammer 40,000 'Eisenhorn: XENOS' tells the story of Gregor Eisenhorn, an Inquisitor and member of the 'Ordo Xenos', sent out to fight and protect the Imperium of man from anything that may threaten it.Eisenhorn: Xenos is set to be released on mobile devices in 2015.For this year, three Warhammer 40,000 games have been scheduled for launch. There's Eutechnyx's lane defense strategy game, Warhammer 40,000: Storm of Vengeance, which comes out on Thursday, March 27. And out later this year are Slitherine's turn-based strategy game, Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon, and Hero Craft's turn-based tactical combat game,Warhammer 40,000: Space Wolf.Of course, if you want to play a Warhammer game on your iOS device right now, you can do just that with Rodeo Games' dungeon-crawling strategy game, Warhammer Quest.

I have no absolutely problem with different viewpoints about a business being posting on a forum. To quote Buffett, you pay a very high price in the stock market for a cheery consensus.

I can also easily spot people who are blatantly ramping a stock.

However I fail to see what 'Mozy123' finds amusing about people with disabilities enjoying Games Workshop products.

There is little to discuss at this point prior to the next update.

[2magpies] 18/3/2014 09:04

the so-called 'discussion' was no more than a contrived (and mutually sycophantic) 'dialogue' between arch ramper and his aliases.

And now that 'discussion' has vanished.

From that you can work out who it was that was ramping, in the guise of 'research'.

Such posters are easy to spot on various threads.

>Rob - Its been bumbling along the bottom for a while, you know why.

£3.00 by the end of the year!

The quality of the discussion on this thread has reached a very low point.

autism spectrum - what planet are you on?

[2magpies] 17/3/2014 15:34

This shop was not in a 'high street' but in an exceptionally central area, with, as I said, thousands of shoppers/visitors.

My point: that that particular shop is not making enough sales. Therefore, the rents, which I know are absolutely astronomical at that location, must be a real burden. But, perhaps it is a calculated expense, for name recognition (I guess).


The 'hobby' is not dead. It probably never will be dead. As long as the autism spectrum exists, such activities will find an appeal. That's not to say that only those with such conditions find it attractive, by any means.

However, does that necessarily translate into an enterprise with a market cap of £165m?

As for 'rarity' value: items can be made worthless by being deemed superfluous. It isn't like gold coins, e.g. : an Edward III Noble, although no longer legal tender (by several centuries), is rare, and valuable.

A piece of plastic, however tooled or painted, has no intrinsic worth.

Good luck with your investment, and hobby.

I shall just keep posting my observations.

Not forgetting that there are probably a couple of independants per town plus on line sales and add ons such as Forge World international sales and shows and competions globally. The business portfolio globally is massive.

Further more just look the resale values of oop items on ebay and you will see that the products increase in value as they become rarer and collectable. As far as I'm concerned this augers well for the future as the hobby is far from dead.

I'm sure that was past bedtime . Someone's not in bed!

Hello Ting Tong!

Nice to see you posting here again.

I nearly spelt your 'alias' with an 'a' instead of an 'o', but I'm sure you already know what you resemble.

"Scuttlebutt investor" lolI'm not sure that's quite right though. Maggie was not talking to anyone or listening to gossip or rumours. I have not read anything she has posted for weeks/months but I get the gist from other posters.When she first showed up here, she appeared to be a lonely little creature who claimed she shuffled daily past a GW shop somewhere but she was unable to recall what town it was in. Hmmm. She has now advanced to sitting on the pavement staring at unwashed windows, watching life and more exciting investment opportunities pass her by. Everyone she sees is having fun - that must be damned annoying. In her head she imagines also sorts of things which she develops into beliefs to justify her obsessions.On her headstone it will say "I told you the GW windows needed washing and I was right because the share price fell"
