It seems that before you know it they'll be dead and buried.

Well that sucks.  I've not had the chance to play any of their games, but it's too small an industry to be comfortable losing someone...

[Ian Mulligan]

I'm amazed they were around as long as they were. I can think of few companies that did more to upset their customers.

[Jonathan]

I agree with you Ian.  I knew they wouldn't last the year, based on what I've previously read, but am surprised they lasted this far.  I actually had thought about this last week and wondered if they were hanging in.

Goodbye to you WizKids now you can't be such a DB to customers.

Catalyst games lab is now trying to get all the gaming licenses from Topps. All the Clix games Battletech, Shadowrun etc. http://www.catalystgamelabs.com/ is where they put the news.

In what way did they treat their customer poorly?  I generally don't follow game companies too closely.

Poor rules support, price gouging, poor treatment of independent retailers, poor support of tournaments and other activities when outside of their corporate stores, alienation of certain player types by discontinuing different player choices...

Oh wait, wrong company.
