And while it could certainly be tied to GW IP, the writing still belongs to the writer of that article (who was not employed by GW). So no, in this case neither GW or me could approve of its use.

Unfortunately, this material was never made to be published online and is now unavailable to buy due to the issues being sold out. <br /><br />I, thinking that Warpstone Magazine was out of business due to not having been updated for several years (back in 2012), republished a lot of the Fimir material from that magazine without permission, which the original author was upset about. As such, I decided to take the book down. My fault really, I should have attempted to track the author down first and asked if I could use that material (though he was credited in the book of course).<br /><br />Anyway, because of this, the planned Fimir list will only utilze official GW art and background. The rules won't be affected by this though, as those were my own ideas. <br />Mathias Eliassonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04195284488235566397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5146247400252399097.post-7435279909272606612018-06-21T23:21:15.288+02:002018-06-21T23:21:15.288+02:00As a nod to how Alastar was created, he could drea...As a nod to how Alastar was created, he could dream of lived a life in a different world with runecraft and magic beyond anything from the world he is from.
