	In 2017 it was rumored (and later confirmed by Daniel himself) that Fox was frequenting /tg/ under various aliases to push his game, with threads popping up talking in-depth about its amazing features, how it was better than Warhammer, and how people should go buy it. Weak retorts to criticism and Fox's similar habit of advertising his game across the interwebs, including interjecting it into discussions about other games, made it suspect that he was in fact the sockpuppeteer behind the shilling. He's pretty open about advertising Zweihander and defends the practice as just that, regular advertisement, but even on other websites some people seem to have grown tired of his Robotnik self-promotions.

	Around the time [[Games Workshop]] decided to <s>piss off everyone but wargamers</s> create [[Age of Sigmar]], [[Fantasy Flight Games]] lost the rights to all their Warhammer properties, resulting in them liquidating all of the copies of the Warhammer Fantasy and 40k RPGs, cardgames, and board games and then removed them from sale. This annoyed several people beyond belief, especially people who liked the Warhammer Fantasy RPG and had yet to learn of [[Cubicle 7]]'s Fourth Edition. Some of them decided that this was bullshit, so they grabbed a copy of [[Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay\|WFRPG]] Second Edition, filed off all the serial numbers and copyrighted names, and had a Kickstarter to publish it.
