Pero algunos lo odian a muertehttp://1d4chan.org/wiki/Matthew_Ward
Almost any designer worth his salt at Games Workshop will be hated by at least somebody for something, and every writer's fluff will always contradict somebody else's sacred vision of the 40k universe. Gav Thorpe will never be forgiven for Codex: Chaos Space Marines, Robin Cruddace will forever be loathed by all Tyranid, C.S. Goto will always be synonymous with pooping on a typewriter.
Ward authors a bunch of Lord of the Rings books. Revisionist neckbeards now like to point to them as damning proof of Ward's madness in its infancy, but mostly they're just forgettable. During this time, he also worked for White Dwarf, his only real defining feature being his fondness for playing the evil armies in battle reports. In hindsight, this was probably a sign of things to come.
Ward unilaterally decides to retcon massive amounts of Space Marine fluff and enshrine the Ultramarines (coincidentally his army) as the gold standard for a "proper" space marine. The new fluff reads like Ultramarines fanfic, portraying the smurfs as second to the Emprah in damned-near all regards, and that all Space Marines view Roboute Guilliman as their spiritual liege. It is about this time that Ward's prejudices against certain chapters start to emerge for the first time.
The whole rulebook promptly turns Codexes: Necrons and Grey Knights into rape trains with no brakes. Every single fa/tg/uy instantly regrets ever thinking the Space Tomb Kings were balanced in the first place. We're talking cheese like 9 fliers in a 1500pt list with flying dedicated transports that don't kill passengers when they crash!! What the fuck.[/u]
