Hey All you BFG Fans!

It's been a while, though sadly no news about the Doran'Por series =(  (there is a issue with a partner and it has derailed all progress)  But I do have something cool to announce!

My youtube channel, Fearless Games, have just finally confirmed we will be speaking with BFG Writer Gav Thorpe, the man who brought us the cheese that is the Eldar Corsairs!  We are preparing our questions for the interview and want to ask if there are nay questions you like to suggest we ask him?  We will be speaking with him this Sunday the 19th (sry for the last minute call its been a crazy week)  and the interview should be up on our channel for you to listen to by Tuesday the latest! I hope you at the very lest check it out on our channel here!

Actually, now I do remember there is one piece of Doran'Por news!  We can't move forward as of now, so instead I will be working on redoing the very first Doran'Por battle!  This will include a new intro/out-tro to better tie it into the series, new dialog and a new sound track!  Stay tuned!

One that springs to mind, When are you going to go your own way? Would love to see what you could do free from GW.

Thanks for the suggestion!  While doing our prep research we discovered he actually has left GW, and gone freelance as a write, game designer, and world creation consultant for a few tabletops and video games (Though he still does work for GW upon request).  His last editions as a full fledged GW employee seems to have been Fantasy's 7th Edition, and 40K's 5th Edition.

The Three Major games he worked on outside of GW was "Cutlass!", "Open Combat", and "Voodooworx"

Lets see,

What do you think of BFG:Revised?
Do you know what MMS eldars are?, Do you like it?
What do you think of the new BFG videogame, (or any videogame based on a boardgame he worked)?
Do you consider specialist games as dead games?
Shall warhammer fantasy be considered a specialist game?

And finally but more important, Have you tasted the mc rib? ::)
