GW had went after online stores a little bit ago to have them remove all their images for products because of IP concerns. They seem a little slowing in doing this. I think they have also gone after people trying to create fictional shows and computer mods that are in the 40K universe.

I understand why they are doing this, but just seems odd in the way they go about it. There are plenty of games that have fan sites dedicated to a specific game and liberally use the name of the game on their site so, not sure what they are trying to do here or what the differences are.

Also, my comments on not sure how they are in business still is more of a concern over their product lines and how they support them. I play 40K and seems like they can't get everything in synch from a rules standpoint. Ever.
