hey there k!
I didn't know what warhammer 40k was upon arriving on the site. It took me a while before understanding it was a game!
As a gaming site it looks good but let me give you input on how I would encourage people to come to my site.
Overall I'd be a gamer i'd go to your site more if you had cheat codes(well not me but others of course hehe), file downloads that are related to the game like plugins, skins. Don't be scared to link to other sites like yours as well.
The full screen mode is nifty but I was expecting the same behavior as when I hit F11. Most hardcore computer users and gamers tend to know that pressing F11 will get your page in full screen mode. What I recommend is removing that link on the left for the full screen and just in case people would like to go in full screen but don't know how to change the message on the upper right from "Press ALT & F4 to exit" to "Press F11 To go Full Screen".
I don't particularly like the scroller in the center. I'd remove that and just have a normal column instead of an iframe.
Overall I like your site! Gary Haran

thanks for the input. this is not a computer gaming site it is a tabletop warefare site.. lol so the people who use the site, will not haave much computer skills. lol
The design looks excellent, but I'd change 2 things:
First of all the animated title. Maybe you should get rid of it. Animated gif's mostly look unprofessional.
Second: The counter under the title. If you want to put a counter on your site you can look out for a smaller one. Maybe a nedstat counter ( that only displays a small icon on your page. Again a giant counter like the one on your page looks pretty amateuristic.
I hope my comment on this matter is appreciated. There's no discussion in tastes, but the only thing I can do is give an opinion...
