Jervis Johnson seems to confirm story that Epic is to return. Seems to be new rules again.

Props to Jodrell for flagging up the article that led to me asking Jervis about this.

I think he's pointing out specifically that "Epic" and "epic" are not the same thing. Sorry but that seems to be the exact opposite of what you're thinking when I read it. I've been known to be wrong before though, just ask my wife

Yes that's exactly my reading too. Note the winking smiley face...

Ach, that's too subtle for my small brain.

Also, someone on Twitter has questioned whether this is a "parody" Jervis account. This is all too confusing for me.

Hmm just gave this some thought. Jervis might be messing with the audience but he obviously wanted to keep the thing going on. If there would be no truth to this matter at all, he should have cut the wings straight away but he dis not.

I'm almost certain it's a parody account, no way would he say the stuff he does about GW in a public format

As I said in the other thread, I am certain its a parody account. How many game in progress photos have been posted? What about Jervis' love of historical games? No. Instead we get half-jokes about current affairs and GW prices rises.

I did email Jervis to ask.... But he wouldnt be Jervis if he replied to emails. :D

What could the implications be for NetEA if GW did do a re-release, legally speaking? It's an evolution of their rule system and army lists, after all. Are they in a position to shut it down? If they did do a new version of Epic they'd certainly have a monetary motive to do so.

How about we get excited if and when they actually make an announcement. Saves us getting all worked up over nothing :D

Definitely parody account. I looked through a few other tweets, and he'd never get away with it and keep his job.
