[QUOTE="Scurvy_Platypus, post: 4888397, member: 43283"] Errr... the 40k RPG in the form of Dark Heresy really isn't that different from FFG than the one from Black Industries. Just some eratta in the FFG one as I recall. The rules themselves... the stats at least in Dark Heresy aren't that different than what I see in my old Rogue Trader book... the 40k wargame Rogue Trader book that is. And given how protective GW is of its properties and all that? Yeah, it _is_ GW. I can't imagine that GW would allow FFG to do something like this without their stamp of approval. And FFG can certainly screw it up... they've got a fondness for doing rpgs and then dropping them with no warning or any real indication of why. Dragonstar, Fireborn, Blue Planet... for a while I was starting to think of FFG as "The place where rpgs go to die". Midnight was the only product line to really get "support" and to my knowledge it's now dead and there's no plans that I'm aware of for it. Don't get me wrong though... I'm betting this will be successful enough for FFG. In part because I think GW wouldn't have allowed this sort of thing to be done without being convinced that it'd make money. [/QUOTE]
