    To quote my response on the FB page:

    It'll be like a Storm of Chaos from the Eye of Terror, a virtual Armageddon!

    I doubt many of those kids will get the references. That's three "shape the future of the game" campaigns, and two of them were retconned almost immediately (the two that promised to do actual reshaping), while the one that stuck was a draw.

    Hey, I like the concepts, but I'm a little sick of GW wiping them out or moving the goalposts because they don't like the results. I don't want to hear excuses from apologists, we've already seen two retconned entirely, so there's no reason to believe they won't do the same if it's not the result they want, until we've seen the results last a few years.
    Critical statements above are not intended to promote negativity or dislike, they are meant to add to a discussion where the positive points have likely already been stated.

    Except this time we have an actual evolving narrative, rather than a set background.

    My money is on this being The Allpoints/Eightpoints, and the attempted seizing thereof.

    I can see this one sticking because there is no set narrative yet. I played in the other three and I do hope they don't retcon like they did before.

    there isn't really anything to retcon it to this time around, no pre-existing narrative to protect. so why not? might as well go crazy with it.

    Yup.

    Pretty sure there's a set outcome anyways - but every journey begins with a set destination...
