“We have something on the way next week, we think you’re going to love:
A new website, which will be the home of the Warhammer Community on the web, with content for every one of you, no matter what corner of the Warhammer hobby you’re interested in.

We’ll have more news for you soon, so stay posted…”

For me this hearkens back to the old Warhammer Forum from the early 2000’s that was eventually abandoned, and led to the prominent rise of other forums such as DakkaDakka and Portent (as Nature abhors a vacuum and always strives to fix it).

From the brief description it appears that this new community page will be for all hobbyists, from Aos, 40k, Blood Bowl and what may end up being many many more games here in the near future if all the rumors are true! Also note the Aquila and AoS lightning halo on the new logo for this community page that seems to also convey this great message: All are welcome.

So this is another great step in their community presence initiative. All boats rise with the tide, and I can not wait to see what this can do for the hobby we all love so much!

 

What will it be? Find our next week!
