    Default BBC News on 40K Anniversary

    Nothing ground breaking but a little look in from an 'outsider' point of view. They even manage to complain about prices!

    Cool.
    I wonder how frequently that story of falling out and coming back and finding mates/colleagues also play repeats. I know its certainly true for all of my group.

    Now you'd think after all these years the beeb would dig out the chap who invented the game wouldn't you! Ah well... nice to see Warhammer 40K is still round and obviously retains its ability to enthrall, challange and entertain after 25 years. I only wish I could say the same

    The comments are quite amusing, a few trolls trying to stir things up and being put squarely in their place (in the corner, with a dunces hat) by the majority of the commentors.

    it's great that the BBC have done this... and I'm glad they used a proper gamer's army on a proper gaming board.

    I can't decide if Rick Priestly is being sarcastic or not...
