This time around on the WHA Waaagh opinion piece, we take a look at the hype and the man with a big chunk of responsibility in creating it, Paul Barnett. What's Paul's effect on the community? Well, aside from the excitement there are still some unintended side effects:

Hype - it's the high-powered caffeine drink, the Red Bull that drives game sales, obsessive fanboyism, and sadly, many of the flame-fests you tend to see when it comes to game releases these days. A massive dose of hype is enough to either create a freight train of excitement for a game or cause that same train to derail off the tracks into a terribly awful (and very visible) explosion.

A new strip from Rory. This time continuing from where "World Of Beercraft" left off. And the promise of two more strips!

As I promised last week another new strip! This Strip is sort of building off of last weeks as you may have noticed. I haven't really done a serial type story line before and this one just sort of happened. I will definitely be updating with 2 more comics in the next two weeks.

The Warhammer blog Waaagh! has done an interview with one of the fundamental institutions of Warhammer Alliance - our dearest colleague and admin Browncoat. As I have said before, Oprah is only a step away.

This week, we put a WAR forum moderator to the question — “Browncoat” of the Warhammer Alliance Forums. Or the Firefly forums. Or the dapper Victorian outfitters society forums.
