My local GW store manager asked me if I wanted to preorder 6th edition 40K today and I told him, "No, why should I?" This was seconds after he told me that they were closing my local GW store come August. Quite simply, there's no reason whatsoever to spend $74 to buy a book for a game I will no longer be able to play after August. The closest GW store after the Westminster, MD GW store is thirty miles away: too far to go for a pick up game. The nearest FLGS that isn't a GW store is a pit. So, I guess for now the hobby is over for me.

Just needed to vent.
