Well I am glad there is no like for like replacement system.
The whole idea of another edition meant I had basically knocked fantasy on the head and was only going to play 8th edition going forward, if anyone ever fancied a game.
I also got hold of an expensive 3rd edition rulebook to play 'Oldhammer'. As 3rd edition was a lot more open-minded, so you could be more narrative and (if I recall) have units that 'don't exist', like dwarves armed with spears... Quite a following of Oldhammerers out there.
So... well done GW... Now I can enjoy 'collecting' the old stuff :-) and maybe running some more narrative games, campaigns, etc...
