Yes good, I might finally be able to shift my Empire army ;)
Only joking, but this has been coming for the past 6 years!

Although..... The rule books are now available again to buy, as is BFG Armada! Maybe this is a new era of SG support?

I don't see armada anywhere on the US or UK site? Maybe they're finally just deciding to drop everything entirely. It should be noted that the content is still online, the links are just gone from the Gw site Imperial fleets its just going to take a bit more google-fu to download them, which I would suggest to anyone that wants them and hasn't done so already (just in case). You can also find the BFG stuff hosted at  various places on the net and I'm sure if any one needs something most of the people here are a google docs link away form getting you more info than you ever wanted...

Armada is listed but you can't add it to your basket - the same with the Mordheim one.

Let's keep the links coming guys. While this is probably just another site reorg and isnt the harbinger of doom, it pays to be prepared.
Also anyone with files/looking for files (BFG and EA) can feel free to PM me.

By the way, it probably makes sense for the HA to be prepared to reach out to you-know-who in the event that the unthinkable happens. Just sayin...
I'd suggest we get our house in order to make the request as official as it can be made to host the content under the same provisions that the old Fanatic content is. Even if it turns out that this is isn't the case this time, we should have a continuity plan in place [dramatic enough for you :)?]

Dear Games Workshop,

Why do you hate your customers so very, very much?

Yours sincerely,

Every GW customer in the world over age 18.

Could the legends be true? Maybe this is why the Mayans stopped writing that calendar. :)

Firstly, I happen to have a copy of every SG resource that was on the GW site, so don't worry about these things being lost. Secondly, I have it on the best authority that this is a technical issue and that the resources will be made available again shortly. If SG resources are ever removed from the GW web site permanently, then I would be first in line knocking on GW's door asking permission to host them centrally here.  ;)

Like many things, this is just a storm in a tea cup in my view.  I'm pretty sure that this has happened before.

Perhaps when they do put all the specialist games resources back up, they can remember to include the Epic Chaos lists this time.
