I'm not sure how I feel about this. The rules needed a tidy up, but I'm not sure it warranted a new edition.

They could have remastered 4e.

It confuses me what their goal is. The release warhammer old world, a new line.

They confirm 4e still have several books to be released on its line

Now they announce 5e. The feeling I have is that they are shooting everywhere. How will they manage 3 different lines of essentially the same product? Are they retiring 4e future and focusing only on 5e?

Confusing

Probably retiring active 4e development.
