Then you really do not understand the amount of money WOTC is
bringing in through sales of Magic, and now Legend of the five rings,
and soon TSR items. WOTC has already bought TSR and then another
company. Money is not the issue for them.. they are planning on
taking over the people that make Warhammer.. which is a pretty
massive company...

most people give them a year before they'll finally get it...
