dave blevins points us to the unfortunate news that game publisher Games Workshop seems to be attacking its biggest fans by ordering the super popular site BoardGameGeek to takedown all fan-made player aids. Basically, the biggest fans of Game Workshop’s games have been helping make those games better, including “scenarios, rules summaries, inventory manifests, scans to help replace worn pieces.” Basically increasing the value of those games so that it’s easier to play them and easier to keep playing them. And, in response, Games Workshop sends out its lawyers? How does that possibly make any sense at all?
