Reply To: So why did Dropfleet Commander and Dropzone Commander just disappear……

TT Combat do have a newsletter … which is why I know they mentioned the new starter sets (including Carnevale and Rumbleslam).

I think we’ve been over this issue before.
GW’s frequency of ‘news’ for its systems is insane and by releasing new versions they keep that cycle going.

Other companies don’t abuse rules updates like that, which creates the illusion of a stand still.

Carnevale and Rumbleslam are ‘open’ enough that new crews and units aren’t going to unbalance the roster of their respective games, so they got something that can act as a ‘still alive’ signal.

Dropfleet and Dropzone aren’t systems that need a ton of new content, so they kind of suffer from not having to report anything worthwhile unless there is a tournament or something similar. You kind of see the same problem with Bolt Action and Flames of War. They got more than enough units and every theater of operation has been covered already. It might be why we’re getting Clash of Steel and Achtung Panzer! …

It’s the endlessly repeating question : how do you let players know the system is still alive without going the GW route ?
