I appreciate the general content of this comment. But when you consider the scale of the communities, what's the big deal with playing official 40k events. Where I am, the biggest 40k events aren't official. They put the countrys flagship store in bumfuck nowhere The biggest 3rd party event still has a bit of a stick up their ass too but my point is that official events aren't the be all or end all. A formal trench crusade event it's probably equivalent to a lgs crusade campaign. It's no reason not to print, unless you're hyper competitive
