Interesting post from Beasts of War concerning the possible impact that The Hobbit will have on the hobby:

I think it might be possible. After all...I'm here now, ain't I? My dalliance with minis ended many years ago and now I am back and more interested than ever. True, this has nothing to do with The Hobbit but with the sorry state of affairs that video gaming finds itself in. Still, I have to think that I am not the only such refugee. Could board games / miniatures see a huge feast due to a video game famine?

Any thoughts?The question is, knowing what happend the last time round (with LoTR Movies causing massive growth) where do we see the industry in the next two years?
Exciting times indeed, if Peter Jackson creates another runaway hit, and GW can do the same thing (i.e. a good game) might just get very busy.
So major movie tie in, Flames of War 3, Warhammer 40K 6th Ed are we looking at the biggest year in wargaming?
