So, ten days into advent and ten short stories set in the grimdark 40K universe. Not one for the world of Warhammer that we all know and love. What gives?

When did BL stop writing about Warhammer?

I was thinking something similar. In addition, the lack of 'non-evil' fluff and rules on the other half of the advent calendar. Pretty weak if you ask me from GW and BL.

Yeah. I don't want Chaos creatures or ghouls in my Empire army. It's not bad if you play 40k but pretty lame for Warhammer players.

Oh, plenty of time. I'm just amazed that all ten have been 40K. It doesn't exactly bode well.

On reflection it is very frustrating that they have zero consideration for balance across games and armies.... :-/

Could it be they have not had any competent Warhammer authors who really get the Warhammer universe?

Hmm, not sure I'd agree with that. Some of the Time of Legends stuff is quite decent; Malus Darkblade is great; I gather Gotrek and Felix is pretty good.

BL have already said the theme of this year's calendar is Lords of the Space Marines, so I wouldn't expect anything except more Space Marine stories I'm afraid.
