Last Week in the Community

It's the 25th anniversary of Warhammer 40k... and I was going to put embed this video in its own post, until I watched it... now I'm just going to give you a link if you feel like seeing it. It's reasons like this that GW doesn't advertise... this is the best they could come up with to celebrate 25 years of their game... a lame slideshow and a sales pitch for a "limited" model.
