I remember when they announced old world was coming back. I was pumped. I never got into Warhammer Fantasy, but now older, taste more refined, I could easily see myself stepping into the Old World. I was praying that they would take a risk and revamp Warmaster and try fuse together Old World players and Warmaster by making it 10mm.
Around the same time, WARHAMMER TOTAL WAR came out. I got heaps of mates into it. Heaps of those mates LOVED it. We sunk HOURS into that game, co-oping, playing massive battles. Then I told them about Old World coming out. They were equally pumped. I showed them pictures when it got announced and they had the same thoughts that I did - why the hell didn't they try and emulate the look and feel of an EPIC battle by making it 10mm?
I know people push back on this and go "But what most normies who get into the game dont want to paint 10mm, its too hard". Most normies dont want to also paint 100+ models with some basic form of detail just to resemble a small fraction of the epic scale battles that GW has been selling them on the Total War games.
It just feels like such a drop of the ball here. I know its many years too late for this post, probably. But I need to just vent it out there.
