Alright Bell of Lost Souls.
I have a wonderfully obnoxious and potentially devastatingly effective plan.
My idea is simple... Inundate GW with e-mails requesting more supplements. Certainly, they don't have a lot of ways to contact them... Their Customer Service line is supposed to be just for orders, and it might even just go to some place in the other hemisphere for processing... But if I know business, I know that the lower echelons tend to freak out a little when something keeps happening, and they get the attention of those higher up, and when those higher up have to devote time to a problem, something gets done. Whether that *something* is just ignoring the e-mails as they come in, or actually forwarding the discovered information higher into the business, that's up to chance.
Ideally, GW might start taking a tally of what we request.
So let's make this as EASY as possible for you, the consumer, to follow these instructions...
1. Prepare an e-mail to: [email protected], [email protected]
-Having the e-mail go to two places will increase the chances of its visibility!
2. Copy the following text and put it into the e-mail:

Dear GW,
As a hobbyist and gamer, I enjoy the Warhammer 40k universe and am thrilled that Games Workshop is taking steps to expand upon the lore through the Black Library, and expand upon the game through the recent addition of Supplements to the various army Codices. I play <Insert Army Here> and am particularly fascinated by <Insert Unit/Faction Here>. As such, I would love to see a Supplement for <Insert Desired Supplement Here>! I know it's unreasonable to expect a reply, or any fast development, as the nature of the pace of the 40k hobby is what it is, but I hope that this e-mail helps to tally the vote in favor of my chosen army.
I hope you have a wonderful day, and please, keep producing your fantastic product!
Sincerely,
<Insert Name Here>

3. Fill in the <Insert Here> blocks in the e-mail.
-Please keep things reasonable. Now is not the time to ask for things that are well out of the range of possibility.
-Petition for things like the Ork Kult of Speed, the Chaos Space Marine Night Lords, the Space Marine Imperial Fists, Craftworld Biel Tan, or something like the Imperial Guard Catachans.
4. Send, and also reply to this post with what you voted for!
Please don't turn this into a big argument over what's better, or who deserves a supplement most. This is supposed to be a civil way to let GW know that A. we like the idea of Supplements, B. we're willing to pay for more of them, C. we want to see the release of supplements mirror the ACTUAL interest of the armies out there.
With any luck, we might start seeing certain more-desired supplements sooner rather than later! That'd be pretty sweet, right?
Good luck, keep it civil, and let's get GW to listen to the fans!
