I should not be surprised that this happened, but it happened.
This is opportunistic law-trolling, and Pat gives context.
Catalyst Game Labs needs to slap Games Workshop over this, hard, for no other reason than to protect the brand they're licensing. Nevermind the politics; this is business, and in particular this is about Trademark. Doesn't matter if the law firm did it; they did it as agents of Games Workshop- the Principle is responsible for the Agent's actions. That is why Catalyst should move on this; if not legally, then socially by verbally defending their audience and (believe it or not) quietly compensating those affected (because that is a show of loyalty that pays BIG dividends for DECADES).
C'mon, CGL, prove that you're worthy of anything other than mockery and scorn.
And a lot of those making stuff usable with 40K or Fantasy need to learn how to shield themselves legally.
