I am sorry when any independent voice is silenced. They had some good issues and some great articles.

Wow this is a sad sad day

 

[tidoco2222]

That would explain the recent problems in trying to get hold of the magazine and also having no joy with direct sales.

 

[kittykat23uk]

Yeah it really is a shame. I, among many others, was getting disillusioned with the magazine, after supporting it from the beginning, but it is still a shame that they weren\'t able to overcome the obstacles and really make a success of it.

I wish the staff the best of luck with any new ventures they might have.

Kat.

It makes me feel guilty about the disparaging remarks and the bad-mouthing in the recent Harbinger #25 thread.

All the best to their staff, especially to Danielle, who was ever helpful, and a bit of a clown too.

 

[tidoco2222]

ditto

As long as the guys and girls got out relatively untroubled financially, I say well done for standing up to these publishing editor-type folks.

Solidarity.

 

[freakinacage]

shame. good luck to them all

Glad I didn\'t renew my subscription now.

Sorry to see it shut down, the issues I\'ve read have been great fun.

So what\'s left out there now? White Dwarf?

 

[Swordwind]

Unfortunatly.... yes


Unless we make a CMoN magazine? Anyone?

 

[Infidel Castro]

Learn to speak French you lazy swine! Ravage is a fine read. If you speak the language. Which I kind of could once. Not much these days though. Aye.

 

[minimaker]

Damn shame. I\'ve been a subscriber from the start and it\'s sad to see it go. I admit I didn\'t find all articles that interesting (I\'m not into wargames) but it was good enough to buy.

Let\'s see what the future brings.

... and this little thing called \"the internet\". Seriously, I heard very good things about this mag, but it must be tough to sell a dead-tree specialty publication when there is an instantaneously available electronic sea of content - for just about any imaginable niche interest. Harbinger had a good idea with the exclusive minis, as value-added IS the way to compete with the \"free stuff\".

Alas their european location may have scared off some N.American interest...

I really feel small and sad.

I was just getting ready to renew my subscription too.... It was a great mag while it lasted...too bad I don\'t speak / read french, or read White Dwarf....

And just in time for you to have gotten me hooked on it, too.

to the happening
lol to the personal timing

Sad news indeed. My thanks for all the feedback on the Harbinger models folks and don\'t worry, I\'m not swapping my wax5 for a p45 just yet!

I can hardly speak English let alone French lol

Something I should have said before, it is indeed a sad day. Without Harbinger I would be just another mindless Games Workshop drone.

Thank you Harbinger, you served us well until the end.
