In case anybody missed out on the joke,
reading this will give you more chuckles then my mediocre attempts at explaining what happened could possibly achieve.
The joke was not played by
Relic or
THQ as many people falsely believe from the website, but rather by Sturm and Lifescayper over at the
DoW 2 Codex. It's rather well done to be honest, and definitely worth taking a look at, so good job guys! Props as well for not having
THQ sue you.
Check out the original announcement here.Just clarifying once again, there has been no
real Tau expansion announced at the moment. Apparently 1000 people attempted to pre-order it (even though the link is purposely broken),
so you're not alone if you wanted this expansion.
