Having covered the initial pieces of Warhammer World in Part 1 of this article, I wanted to delve a little bit into what I did during my second day there and other activities that took place outside of Games Workshop itself.
After our first day there, Jason and I raced to a Brazilian restaurant where we met up with Eadwine Brown (Forge World Customer Service – soon to be a...
