It does indeed look like GW are re-establishing a social media presence. Forge World resurrected their Facebook page recently too.

Further reports show that GW are re-entering the Organised play scene.
To be honest this all seems like a very well thought out plan from GW. Tom Kirby came in slashed everything, and generally alienated the wargame community. He became the big bad, whilst stabilising everything. Rountree then takes over, brings everything back, and the community then see GW in a positive light. So whilst they then have a much better financial base to start from, they can then reinstall everything back to what it was, whilst being able to do so with complete control of their costs.

If it was their plan its a good one. Here's hoping they now act on feedback from the community in a positive way, would be nice to see some FAQs/errata and some work on the more neglected ranges.

Speaking of FAQ's....

Its a peak behind the curtain of what crap GW used to have to deal with (before they shut the willy wonker style gates and cut themselves off from the community...) most of the questions asked don't need FAQs jut read the rules... its madness. Utter madness.
Which means the real FAQ get lost in the tidal wave of other rubbish that gets asked.
