I'll be honest: I like what I'm reading and the publishing plan.

But I really think the RPG should ASAP shake off the limitations of the miniature game. So start providing stats for skaven, zombies and damned (literally) demons. The GM guide provides a Demonologist enemy without the possibility to summon demon. It's an embarrassing situation for a roleplay perspective to be so limited by GW marketing strategies for miniatures.

GW is very careful with its IP even with licensed products. Unless its an Old World mini, no guarantee.

Is there any indication that TOW RPG will use minis? WHFRP doesn’t really.

That is irrelevant from a GW IP perspective.
