It seems like Games Workshop doesn't care if companies produce bad games with their IP, they must make money by licensing a couple of specific factions to a developer or something.

I feel bad for these guys, Nurgle is kind of funny for a couple of missions but getting stuck with Nurgle as the main enemy in your game seem to make things more difficult for a developer.

Angry red space marines with axes or giant obese zombies full of pus, I wonder which is better from a marketing perspective?

It is also a win for Games Workshop if one of the games they license suddenly becomes a hit, because it will boost popularity of their IP (look at Total War: Warhammer series), whereas allowing your license to rot doesn't give you anything of value.

Upvoted for the holy promethium purging.
But those engagement ranges for "ranged" weapons are getting more and more ridiculous with every nu X-com like

Actually looking forward to this and I promise I won't fall to Chaos this time and I am not just saying that because the Grey Knights are literally incapable of falling (I think)
