- 7eAL - Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 The proper term is a "tender offer" at least here in the US. No stock options for the idjits making bad decisions, just someone walking up and buying a lot of stock. Then when the next set of elections for the board happens, "Hi, my name's Lion, and I'm the majority shareholder, running for Chairman of the Board. Explain to me why you are continuing to destroy the most valuable part of the company?" I need about $6 million US to pull it off, I think. That would let me buy ~4million GBP worth of stock, which should be a huge portion of the total issued common stock. It's not just GK that are in extremis for the next codex, the sisters are in the same place, as are the Necrons. I wouldn't mind writing the next Necrons Codex. And Codex Eldar Corsairs. And adding Heavy Support and such to Codex Kroot. And adding a hundred pages to the Bell of Lost Souls Codex Adeptus Arbites. And doubling the number of strange races in Codex Tau Empire. And writing Codex Lost and the Damned. And Chapter Approved for small things like Civilians ...

ripath Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I think that Jester's thoughts are pretty much the same as my own: That GK can't lose anything and remain a viable army in any way. If we lose terminators we have no HQ and GK are no longer playable. Get rid of PAGK and there is no GK troops choice and probably no Fast attack choice. If Purgations squads are cut the least played heavy support choice is lost. Dreads going the way of the squats would take away one of the two long range antitank weapons GK have. And finally removing land raiders makes GK all but unplayble in competitions. So what could GW possibly cut that would make GK worse off then they already are and still be an army? Units that we don't have? I stand corrected they can also take away brother captain stern even though you can't take him in competitions. Looks like we can't count our units on one hand anymore.

Grand Master Tyrak Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 think that Jester's thoughts are pretty much the same as my own: That GK can't lose anything and remain a viable army in any way. If we lose terminators we have no HQ and GK are no longer playable. Get rid of PAGK and there is no GK troops choice and probably no Fast attack choice. What if you just gave them bolters and chainswords instead? Below the belt, Tyrak. That hurts more than the last time I was sent to the excruciators. I still feel it's a valid point. We don't have to delete units from the Codex in order to "lose" them. PAGK squads would still exist even if they ended up with bolters and chainswords, but a lot of their character would be gone - they'd just be grey tactical squads. Change can work just as well as a big red pen when it comes to removing units.
