All in all I get it, I just don't like it....and no, as someone said I am not doing the Chicken Little the sky is falling, I just am upset cause now I can't finish some of my armies the way I wanted too....
Oh that was me
and to note, I am totally right in the same situation myself to the point that that I'm very likely dropping my plans for any new marines because just like you, I can't probably finish them the way I want. That's a bad thing as it means less paints, brushes, bitz, transfers, and even full biggerized kits purchased to scratch build with from my local GW store. However, I did point out one very possible avenue of progress that is IP friendly, provided the community wants to support it, that might be a good enough solution. OTOH, if you're playing evil communist aliens and green brutes you're a little more screwed. Worse case I myself can always go back to BFG full time which has a plethora of fantastic 3rd party stuff to get my fix, not everyone is so able (another awesome move there GW driving even more $ to other companies).

I've recently been considering a possible 10mm generic scifi game using the epic game engine.
We're currently cutting steel on a plastic injection bases mould for troublemaker games' Timeline 300 which are similar to the epic style bases but bigger and those could be re used.
Funny, just last week I've was thinking it was odd that a group of people over at TacCom hadn't decided to create a game that had de facto comparable mechanics. I just hope that said generic scifi game also comes with awesome SciFi models as well as for me and my peeps here SteamPunk is not really our shtick. Now that I think of it, isn't DZC 10mm too?
Oh and tangentially, I saw today that Spartan Games just wandered into the 28mm heroic scene. Hrrmmm considering their prodigious output this might be interesting times indeed...
Edit: OH LOOKSIES AT THIS. Spartan Games also decided to get into a 10mm scifi game as well. NEAT.
