Amazing Idea Machine

[TIFUSAR]

Imagine for a moment that you are Gav Crudward, Games Workshop’s most/least talented games designer...

Editor's note, this article does not depict any particular company, and or individual specifically.

Obviously this is a light hearted article about what' seems to be in the hearts and minds of fans everywhere as of late. Kids, Do not try this at home. -MBG

While sitting in your office and admiring the wall, waiting for the clock to strike tea time in lovely Nottingham, England, Kom Tirby kicks down the door to your office and begins shouting in a fit of murderous rage.

“Crudward!” He screams, “You’re writing the 7th edition space marine and/or chaos space marine codex, our flagship book! You need to come up with a hot new unit for all these suckers- I mean customers to buy that they don’t already own! Can you do it?”

“Of course I can, chief. Pip-pip, cheerio! Bob’s your uncle!” You exclaim.

“Good on you, Crudward! Hurry up now, I’m late for my insider trading conspiracy!”

Tirby leaves, and you set to work on designing the next big pointless and/or overpowered space marine unit. You haven’t had an original idea in years, but that doesn’t matter, because under your desk you have the saving grace of your career- Gav Crudward’s amazing idea machine, that you bought from a gypsy years ago in a caravan park.



You turn it on, and wait patiently as it creates next year’s ridiculous new centerpiece release for Codex Space Marines...
