In part two is this other "Navarre" THE same "Major General Hestor Navarre" from the Word Bearer attached regiment Ouranti Draks? The Reach's imperial commander who's name still lingers day in the modern 40k universe?<br /><br />While Prospero Burn from a more Space Wolf POV novel... There's gotta be something of a lore tidbit there right, eh? (I must know!)<br /><br />Second question: How do you feel about the fresh Heresy revelations created by Dembski-Bowden and/or future HH lore impacts if any?<br /><br />Thanks.Eroldrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640223099057293172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-73868939453980199822010-11-20T06:53:21.248+00:002010-11-20T06:53:21.248+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Eroldrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640223099057293172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-63678328354075350042010-11-19T05:25:08.218+00:002010-11-19T05:25:08.218+00:00I forgot to leave the one question I've wanted...I forgot to leave the one question I've wanted to ask you for years.

Surely the Navarre or a similar Frigate/escort must be among the ships that were up there. Not a super important question, and I understand if it simply wouldn't have made the Hive/siege war the same, but in case it's on purpose... just nagged at my mind.<br /><br />JackJacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-76826296856366857612010-11-10T22:28:14.460+00:002010-11-10T22:28:14.460+00:00Infront of you is a large cake, what type of cake ...Infront of you is a large cake, what type of cake is it?<br /><br />Would a different clone imagine a different cake? <br /><br />Cake is good don't you agree?<br /><br />Yeah Cake *drools* what are you still doing here?Schaferlord.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01391251712008508655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-37771609764845514192010-11-10T13:07:14.010+00:002010-11-10T13:07:14.010+00:00Any more Triumff in you or was it a one off ?Any more Triumff in you or was it a one off ?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179585315654624087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-41758774320963886912010-11-10T12:51:28.275+00:002010-11-10T12:51:28.275+00:00I'm a big Sinister Dexter fan and was wonderin...I'm a big Sinister Dexter fan and was wondering how much time you are able to devote to it these days? The strip seems to appear in relatively short bursts for the last few years even though there's been an ongoing storyline during that time. Is this your choice as you don't get time to write a longer story with all the other things you are doing. Is it Tharg explioting the strips versatility and asking for 6 progs here, or 7 progs there? Or a combination of the two?...<br /><br />... Ok I think what I'm really asking is will we see a Sinister Dexter continous 'epic' anytime soon? I'd certainly love to see it.Colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17023156914121070619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-77711536218643945272010-11-10T08:22:51.629+00:002010-11-10T08:22:51.629+00:00Were the differences between the original/lost ver...Were the differences between the original/lost version of Honour Guard and the published version drastically different?

I'm asking this because I imagine that after thirteen years or so of writing in the same universe, you'd develope a hate of certain things (e.g. All Space Marines look down on everyone)<br /><br />2) Which are easier to write in comics; limited series or ongoing series?<br /><br />3) Are your clones unionised? If not, how do you stop them then, because mine start to refer to themselves as 'We are...' after seeing union representatives which means recycling and this is becoming a costly process now, so any advice would be much appreciated.<br /><br />Thanks for putting your brilliance to paper, AaronAaronnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-11584446926345556232010-11-09T10:54:56.943+00:002010-11-09T10:54:56.943+00:00Given the popularity of the seris, and the sucess ...Given the popularity of the seris, and the sucess of THQ's latest games based in the 40K franchise, do you believe there isa market for a Gaunt's Ghosts Video Game?<br /><br />That's the short version of the question, to clarify;<br /><br />I mean, it's perfect for a 3rd person shooter, or a turn based 3rd person war Real Time Strategy Game.<br /><br />Given the talent that GW's got on their Video Game hands, there's in my mind alot of potential here.<br /><br />Plus, I don't believe you've ever worked on that platform?
