Great insights coupled with the odd internet slap-fight. Just read through it. Refreshing to hear his thoughts again.

He certainly feels little compulsion to justify everything he writes, nor to make it "correct". Perhaps the reason he posts less on here is the rather entitled attitude some (I say again, some) posters demonstrate on these forums...

Reading through his replies on reddit I can’t imagine anything close to what people have said to him frequently on reddit being allowed here. There were three posters I can think of off the top of my head to go so far as to insult him and I think their posts got melta’d. Ultimately we can do deeper dives here than on reddit and the mods are much stricter (in a good way) which keeps things clean for the most part. Also, my main take away from his posts on reddit is that way too many people care about the Blood Ravens. ;) Edit: gonna stick a winky face on there so sfpanzer knows it’s meant in jest :P Edited July 28, 2019 by Marshal Rohr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Rohr Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Even though I spent hundreds and hundreds of hours playing it as kid I tend to forget it’s the vector for a large chunk of people to find the hobby. So those ‘are Blood Ravens Thousand Sons’ threads that we beat to death and then to goop here in the 2000’s still show up with frequency on big sites like reddit but more rarely on mono-subject sites like ours.

Sandlemad Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) I never knew it was Andy Hoare who did the old CT Kroot mercenaries list. God bless that man. EDIT: holy hell he did the 13th company list and the lost & the damned too, these are all the hits EDIT, again: Fantastic interview, dude's has an interesting career. Also this is the first time I've heard someone in GW say that it's pretty likely that there are millions upon millions of sisters in the galaxy. I thought most of the fandom had grudgingly settled on a few tens of thousands but with a broader acknowledgement that millions made more sense. Cool.

Marshal Loss Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Hoare is an absolute legend. I wish he was back working for mainstream GW because their team badly needs someone of his quality, but I can't begrudge his passion for specialist games.

Petitioner's City Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 This was a great interview. Glad someone from the Golden Age is heading up the specialist studio It's intriguing you say, as Phil Kelly (who started at the same time as Andy in the design studio and had published in White Dwarf before then) is from then, and doesn't Jervis write for AoS too?

Marshal Rohr Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Robin Cruddace is head of 40k, Jervis is head of AoS I might be wrong but I think it goes like: Robin Cruddace - 40k Jervis Johnson - Age of Sigmar Nobody, filled in interim by Anuj/Neil - Horus Heresy Andy Hoare - Specialist Games Adam Troke? - Middle Earth Edited August 6, 2019 by Marshal Rohr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish he was back working for mainstream GW because their team badly needs someone of his quality, but I can't begrudge his passion for specialist games. Think of it this way, with him in charge we will get all the speicalist games back that we (royal we, never played any specialist games but have 3 ships from BFG) played back in the old days.

Closet Skeleton Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I never knew it was Andy Hoare who did the old CT Kroot mercenaries list. God bless that man. EDIT: holy hell he did the 13th company list and the lost & the damned too, these are all the hits He didn't do Lost and the Damned, he said everyone did a different list from Eye of Terror and he did the 13th company.

Felix Antipodes Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Great interview full of interesting stuff. Like all the good ones it ended quickly and felt like it could have gone on much longer. They didn't even touch on his Rogue Trader novels from his freelance period and I would have liked a deeper delving into his time doing role-play books. Hope he gets an invite back soon.

Robbienw Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) There a new one up with Dave Thomas. He’s an absolute legend, he has sculpted so much brilliant stuff particularly for Marines of all flavour over the years, Custodes, and most recently the necromunda gangs. Lots of information on how GW moved from traditional sculpting to digital. Interesting to learn that the very first digitally sculpted sprue GW did was the Black Templar’s vehicle frame. That was released all the way back in 2005. A lot of people seem to think CAD is relatively new to GW, but they have been using it for ages.

USNCenturion Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Speaking of Andy Hoare and the old guard, the person I’d most love to hear from is Pete Haines. I’m fairly certain he’s no longer with the company but his insight on army design would be a treasure to listen to. He’s behind the Cadian Eye of Terror list, several of the old index astartes articles and lists, and so much more. Andy Chambers would be fantastic as well but he’s also moved on from GW :( I specifically remember that Cityfight game between the Tau and Salamanders Andy spoke of. Oh nostalgia.

Would absolutely love to hear from Pete Haines - his Iron Warriors army was a real inspiration for me back in the day. Andy Chambers is actually a realistic possibility though, as he has written novels for BL relatively recently. The 40k Overfiend!
