Ignorant fucking cretins. Everything Games Workshop makes that people say they stole from Blizzard predates everything Blizzard has ever made.
This qualifies too.
The settings are very similar due to GW hiring Blizzard to make a WH game for them and then can it after Blizzard made the entire game for them so instead of letting themselves go bankrupt they changed some names and released it on their own. Turns out the game was a goldmine so they make a sequel, an expansion for it, a sci-fi spinoff, an expansion for that, another sequel with an expansion and a mmo with at this date, two exansions. GW was ofcourse kicking themselves in the head for their idiodicy so to cover up their decable for their shareholders they convinced their fans that EVERYTHING was Blizzard's fault and nor the fact that the games they license are typicaly crap nowadays(need i cite soulstorm?), their once interesting background material turned into a Smurfs fanwank and that they charge a rediculous ammount of money for their minis.($100 for a squad of Necron Immortals). Then they begged EA to make them rich again and were given EA Mythic, which took WoW, poured a bucket of grimdark on it, left the hype machine running overnight and called it a warhammer game.
Name me one thing other then "psuedo medival setting" that war invented and was later copied by wow. And by "war" and "wow" i mean the games "Age of Reckoning" and "World of Warcraft" and not "gw's entire ip range and everything licenced thereoff" and "wrath of the lich king" as people like you seem to read it more often then not.
Oh, and i dare you to call the protoss a ripoff of the tau.
