Rick Priestly on Chaos Dwarfs

Very interesting. I am really happy about all these interviews with the GW old guard, which started popping up recently. Finally some solid information on the inner workings of the ivory tower. There is another discussion on the Painting Phase, which explains how the whole finecast fiasco came about (highly recommended).

Here it was very suprising to hear that Tamurkhan was meant to be the OG "End Times", but that the idea was finally snatched up by the main studio and developed into the transition to AOS. I remember listening to some other GW studio worker in yet another interview, who claimed that an End Times event was discussed in the studio already in 2009. It is curious how hellbent was GW on killing WFB instead of trying to fix it. They must have really thought that the setting wasn't special or popular enough. I must say I am glad to see them proven wrong, with the apparent initial sucssess of TOW.
