Friday think: will Games Workshop be able to meet customer demand for Leviathan 10th Ed starter sets 🤔

I recently ran 2 polls asking if people thought if there would be enough stock, and if GW's website could handle the launch.

Let's begin /1

The 1st poll asked if people thought if there would be enough sets to go round.

Only 1 in 5 people voted yes, and almost 2/3 said no.

Or to look at it another way, there was a 3:1 ratio of those not thinking there will be stock to those who did.

So not great confidence here /2 Image
I found this result interesting as GW's last 3 summer launch boxes did not experience stock scarcity.

Age of Darkness, AoS Dominion and 40K Indomitus (while it had a wobbly start, availability was ultimately not an issue).

So what's going on here, why such low confidence? /3 ImageImageImageImage

Combat Patrols could be a huge deal, IF and only if GW plays their cards right. They should be using White Dwarf, and the Warhammer App to release all new mode legal builds with Datasheets for each faction intermittently... 🧵

@TableTopBill and @Pendolino70S so some quick research into #warhammer40000 and woo doggy... To start the biggest differences between #battletech and 40K is the sheer amount of hand-wavium 40K needs. It is far more fantasy than sci-fi. Psychics, aliens, magic it has it all.
BT on the other hand is very human focused, there are no aliens that threaten humanity and the only semi-intelligent life forms found are 2 species of caveman like humanoid "pinkies" and a bird like primitive society that can only be reached accidentally by misjump with no way
back to human space. The factions of the Inner Sphere are thus not divided between species, but between vast star spanning empires. Although admittedly biased, I prefer BT because there is so much less hand-wavium. You can trace Humanities journey to the stars directly back to
