I think maybe GW is getting us, as the player base, to make their game for them. GW claims to be a miniatures company, not a game company. And what better way to appease the masses than to give them the game they want by letting them do all the leg work and develop said game?
I can't believe I'm saying this, but perhaps GW has finally got wise and (as I've seen mentioned) the game is being play tested on a global scale and our input will actually carry some weight.
Then again, if our input carried weight we'd still be playing pre-ET 8th.....
