I've written MY rant about the Games Workshop trademark bullying. link It's cool. It has a picture of Spiderman getting punched in the crotch. Language that might get you fired as a bonus. Have a read if you like. -TV |

I like it when people get punched in the balls, right up my alley so to speak. Great post, would recommend. 9/10 =) Seriously, reconsider your "first strategy", it holds great merit! |

And, wholly out of character for me, I read your blog as well. How I wish I had enough money to boycott GW! But not buying their product because my gaming choices are between dollar store dinosaurs and TMP Supporting membership (dollar store dinosaurs win, three months in a row) is not a boycott, per se. When cash flow improves, I'll boycott them. I'll invest an army's worth of money into a squad for Infinity :-) |

OK despite some grammatical issues that was damn funny. I think I am going to go buy Spot and download it onto my iPad. Peace |

Excellent bit of ranting. I enjoyed the expletives very much. I'm already, in effect, boycotting those clotpoles
but I may purchase a copy of Hogarth's book now that it's back. Also, who makes minis of ravens with sheilds and spears as in the Trey Corbies logo? |

When cash flow improves, I'll boycott them. I LOVE that line of reasoning. and dollar store dinosaurs rock. |

Thanks all! Glad I could provide a laugh. whitemanticore: my Muse allows for either funny or grammatical. I use the latter up all week in the dayjob. Space Wizard: Armed Raven minis? Uhhhhh. I do? Released in a month or two

Well done. I almost hope they're idiots enough to spend a mint trying to win an unwinnable battle like this. Doug |

I truly enjoy the idea of spiderman being crotch punched. GW does many things right. They do not appeal to me |

Their sue-happy trademarkitis was so acute that it gave rise to the urban legend of them trying to trademark Nazi as part of the Indiana Jones RGP. Wasn't an urban legend. They put the ® right in the text next to Nazi. |

That was a good rant! I think J.R.R.'s estates said something and that's why they went to Orks. |

That was a good rant! I think J.R.R.'s estates said something and that's why they went to Orks. Also now with them doing LOtR the may have permission to use orc. |

Upon further consideration of my words and their impact I have decided to retract and offer an apology. link To the Dingos. -TV |

GW, the schoolyard bully of wargames companies. Rather sad, they used to be a decent company. |
