To answer the OPs question: This doesn't affect me one whit. I never liked GW's stuff and stopped getting White Dwarf the moment it became a house organ. My condolences to those that feel this more keenly than I.

What this does do is remind me of how often I have been affected by Chaosium cancelling projects or not supporting games. Ringworld, Elfquest, Questworld and Superworld all got published and then languished with very little support. Eventually the licensed material got tied up or ended. This raises the question for me as to what Chaosium has learned about making a line profitable enough to keep. Anyone have any thoughts on what it takes either in general or specifically for Chaosium?

Chaosium has a line of fiction that they were making money on. Anybody know if that is going to affect how it devotes itself to supporting our RPG hobby?

And yes I thought it germane to connect the Dark Heresy travesty to Chaosium’s track record because this is after all BRPCentral even if this is the Gamers Cavern Forum. If that is too wildly inappropriate we can move the question elsewhere.
