Concerning if true.
McNeill and Swallow have a hand in building the universe and as much as I adore the new blood I think some of the old hands are needed to shape the epic theatrical drama of 40k.
I also think classic writing would be refreshing. Remember the OTT drama of Thor? I miss that.

These books sold for 13 quid each.
Games Workshop has created one of the best worlds and has some of the best sci fi and fantasy writers working for them and yet the books are just not making it into the hands of readers.
Instead their lore is being peddled (inaccurately) by third parties...

"Netflix dialogue is clunky due to second screen viewing. Characters need to announce what's happening."
The people yearn for radio dramas and audio books.
I wonder if we'll see a resurgence. I prefer reading to audio books but I rather like audio dramas and there's quite a few on yt and Spotify.

McNeill if you're out there. Nightbringer is fantastic. I was already familiar with your game but I still find myself delighted and surprised.
I've only known Uriel mentioned as a veteran so seeing him inexperienced and doubting himself has been lovely.
