    Default 40K End Times!

    It looks like the success of WFB's End Times has lit a fire under GW:

    End time for 40K is coming!

    At the recent Black Library Weekender, some interesting things came up. The most significant of which was vastly overlooked. The End Times for 40K is coming. Remember that little bit in the 6th edition Rule book that said there was a flaw in the Golden Throne? Well, that little hint has grown into a full blown story line.

    Graham McNeil said he had to got approval from the powers (probably due to the success of the End Times in Warhammer) to bring a similar story to 40K. And it will start with the Ultramarines.

    He has to write Crimson King first, then Battle for Macragge a space marine battle novel, then on to...Guilliman. That is right, the Primarch of the Ultramarines is coming back! It will be part of the next Ultramarine story arc. He also said he is back for good, not just as a plot device to be put away when finished with.

    Hmmmmm........

    I for one, cannot wait to see most of the good guy Primarchs come back.

    If Roboute Guilliman is the first Primarch to return, can we safely assume that all loyal Space marines would rally under his command? I mean, he's a Primarch after all, even if he didn't belong to a Space Marine's very own Legion/Chapter.

    Well, upon reading this article, my wallet collapsed into a singularity.

    Barry, my chief experimental Hamster went through, and yes, yes it's confirmed, it's a stable cash flow wormhole straight into GW's bank account.

    Sadly, it is one way.

    Barry, you shall be remembered.

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    Please Gods of Chaos NO!

    such a terrible idea

    1) 40k is a SETTING

    2) You are an idiot if you think said setting is full with a galaxy full of 10,000 years of history

    3) Its ALREADY the end times unlike fantasy

    So many possibilities for this in 40k, but Mr McNeill offered a different interpretation of that BL Weekender conversation.

    At the 40k open day in the Summer, they said so, so, so, so many times that the 40k story line will not advance, that it will hang at 'a minute to midnight' and they will go back and explore more times between the heresy and 'now'.

    I'd be up for this rumour to be correct but they were pretty solid in their defence of not continuing it.

    p.s
    Mystery, nice name for a Hamster
