It seems like the forum has died as far as traffic and posting goes. I know that the death of fantasy has fractured that side of the community a bit, but that seems like less than a full explanation for why no one seems to post anything much here any more. I think we have a great gaming community with interest in a lot of different games ... it sucks to see the life drained from our online message boards.

Warmachine and kings of war people moved to facebook groups. Not like the majority of the people here gave a **** about any game besides 40k anyway.

Kings of War if I have to...
I would attribute that to the players of those other games not choosing to talk about it here. If warmachine players choose to use facebook instead of centex, that's not the forums fault.Originally Posted by Revenant

Oh, no wonder I don't hear anything about it on here anymore as I don't even have a Facebook account. I just assumed the community went away, woops. So, is Tuesday nights still a thing, and what is being played, KoW? And has KoW finally released their official book yet?

Ok, I got off my lazy ass and did some research myself, and it does appear that KoW has released the book. I'm hoping that DL has some in stock, I'll check on Tuesday night, and order it online if not. If I'm not mistaken, the "Twilight Kin" are their version of Dark Elves. I guess I'll check out the free rules, maybe try a game Tuesday night.

Since aos came out there has not been any 40K releases to talk about.
Plus I have been away for 2 months.
Who plays 40k anymore?
Tyson isn't posting Guns a'blazing anymore. I miss those days always great reads.

What's funny is, we had 22 players in the Sept Tournament and 12 in Oct. With a lot regulars being out for various reasons. Just because the usual subjects have bailed, it doesn't mean people aren't playing the game. We have quite a few regulars at the tournaments that don't post here. 40K is still strong in Austin.

Lets see why is it dead here?
40k eltism makes other games less inclined to post.
AoS broke a 35 year long system into many different parts.
KoW is fledgling (but growing fast), plus their own site is more geared to KoW debates and goes out of its way to be friendly.
Those are the top thoughts I have about why this site is slowing down.
