Interesting take. I am intrigued by the parts that make it simpler to release and such. Simplifying the armies, in relation to how many there are and choices, is a good idea. Not having to know 18, or how ever many, army books will make the games a bit easier.
I don't trust them enough to pull this off, but Ill see what they do. Hell the fire sales on ebay must be priming already though.
