[Archive] GW Australia site might go down soon

Grimstonefire:

From what I read on warseer it seems the GW Oz site is set to have a major revamp very soon. Potentially within the next few days.

There are loads of pdf’s on there, some interesting information on the designers notes behind the 6th ed armies a well. Also information on Storm of Chaos.

So if anyone has any reason to download any pdf’s or copy and paste text DO IT NOW. I am going through downloading everything I think I might potentially need at some point in the future.

jolpis:

hmm ok it says accses denied at oz.games-workshops.com

anyway thanks for telling us.

Tarrakk Blackhand:

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH! The LAST vestage of Games Workshop that isn’t a glorified advertisement! CURSES!!!

Willmark:

Yep the take over by the dark side is now compete the bean counters are now in full control.

Maul:

I still got it to work:

Get it NOW, while you can.

Edit:
as of 3/30/09 the link is dead.

I am not gloating, I was trying to get people to get there and get it ASAP.

two_heads_talking:

so, do you have a link to the oz site, or are you just gloating because you can get to it while we cant’?

BilboBaggins:

A lot of the PDF’s have been saved. I made it a mission to get all I could. I think the Yahoo Forum called Ravening Hordes has most saved, including the infamous Warpstone Rat Tank and SOC Armies.

For those who can't seem to be able to use search engines for Yahoo Groups. :o

Ravening Hordes it used to be the SOC Slayer forum on Yahoo but changed a while ago, so all the early posts are Slayer Player relevant. :hashut

while I think search engines are great, I also think it's just as amiable to post up a link that's just as easy for 'you' (general term here) to copy/paste it into the forums.. which is easier?

BilboBaggins:

For me: It is to have you search or for you email me asking if I had a copy of the pdf to email to you. :slight_smile:

For you: To have me to open another broswer window to get to the site and cut and paste so I don’t lose what I’ve already typed. :cheers

I wasn’t thinking when I posted, I try to post links when I have them handy. :hashut

two_heads_talking:

Fair enough.

This message was automatically appended because it was too short.

Kera foehunter:

it was bound to happen !! O well

BilboBaggins:

They did switch over every other countries sites so we all knew that is was going to happed to them.

Tarrakk Blackhand:

The WORST was when they desicrated the Canadian one. We had the LARGEST Warhammer : Skirmish scenarios on the web.

I’m wondering how limited 8th edition will be. It seems like GW has removed all the fun and creative elements that made 6th Edition so Kool.

Although, I’ll give them high accolades for improving 5th Edition Space Marines! Now i can understand what I’m suppose to do with them. The book reads like it was written by a Fantasy player.

Considering 40k is for 5 year-olds it's an improvment. :) :cheers :hat off

Tarrakk Blackhand:

Well…shoot 'em up space games are more targeted at the youth, but for the first time, I find 40K interesting…and that’s saying a lot!

Wait Snowblizz…aren’t you playing Chaos Dwarfs? Isn’t that Fantasy? I think you just insulted yourself! :smiley:

Kera foehunter:

well we can only hope that gw will be putting up new cool stuff

Sure, like GW is well known for replacing cool old rules and fluff with cool new rules and fluff.
