Before I begin on part 3, a quick note: Part 3 is going to focus on Games Workshop games still, specifically games no longer made by the company.

No new models are being made for them, no rules updates, no new codex to buy. So you might think that they aren't worth playing. Warmaster- a 10mm scale game made by Games Workshop in the 2000s It can be a hard sell.
