Line 6: * ''[[Warhammer 40,000]]'': Games Workshop once found itself having to get rid of one of two unpopular armies: The [[Our Dwarves Are Different\|Squats]] or the [[Horde of Alien Locusts\|Tyranids]]. By the time Third Edition rolled around, the Tyranids were redesigned and the Squats were eaten by the Tyranids. One can only wonder what the grim darkness of the far future would be like today with a civilization of dwarves in the mix... ** [[Dwarf Fortress\|Weaponized carp?]] * While reception for the ''[[Starship Troopers]]: The Miniatures Game\|''Starship Troopers'' miniatures game]] wasn't perfect, it was a pretty solid game and had some great miniatures. However, before it was discontinued, Mongoose Publishing had made some pretty big plans such as the introduction of two new races that were also going to appear in the second edition of the RPG, which was also intended to include more rules for playing Skinnies (The original edition only had one short section and a single Skinny class, with the promise of more later on). Since they lost the ~~licence~~license, none of this is likely to happen. == Card Games == Line 14: Wizards of the Coast kept the final set of the ''Scars of Mirrodin'' block a mystery for a time, saying it would be either New Phyrexia or Mirrodin Pure, depending on which side won the war. Eventually it was revealed to be New Phyrexia. This surprised precisely no one, but for the portion player base who liked Mirrodin and disliked Phyrexia, we can only wonder what the set could have been like. * Unfortunately for them, recent articles about the development process reveal that the last set never could have been Mirrodin Pure to begin with—the block was originally going to start with New Phyrexia and go from there! That only changed when they decided it would be more interesting to show the process of Mirrodin gradually being corrupted into New Phyrexia. * Did you know that there was an attempt to make ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' into a card game, before the popular CCG we know and love, today? [http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Bandai Bandai's version of Duel Monsters] was simplistic, if crammed with [[~~Screw the~~New Rules Ias ~~Have~~the Plot Demands\|rather bizarre rules and effects]], and was much farther detached from the card game we saw in the anime and manga than Konami's version was. However, it was reportedly rather popular, so imagine if this was the version of the game we got, instead of Konami's version... == Tabletop RPG ==
